Option to identify
cspiwak
I love the app, particularly the bird song feature and have found birds I may have missed through using it. One nitpick is that sometimes I know the bird I am putting in for I’d and the app Can not recognize it... seems like there could be an option for tentative I’d that could be confirmed... course that might just create a mountain of work for them... Love the app... it is my favorite
Powerful tool in the palm of your hand
really sadly disappointed
Great maps, sounds are very helpful. Only criticism is lite on details, for example size.
Favorite App

This is so great for bird watching! Works perfect and they keep improving it. I love to find new birds for my life list!
Great application

Really enjoy this app. Easy to use, full of good info, pictures, etc. one recommendation: would love ability to input that I saw more than one at a time, instead of inputting every one I observed. Great app!
Fantastic Birding App

This app has a been a mental health lifesaver! Being able to enjoy the natural world around me during the pandemic has helped me so much. The app is incredibly easy to use and features multiple pictures of all the birds and examples of different types of calls to help identify the birds. I love that it will track my ‘life list’ of all the different birds I’ve identified. The photo ID feature is so very cool (and helpful) but the addition of the sound ID feature was chefs kiss perfection. In every way, this app is perfect for new and experienced birders.
Great tool for birdwatchers

This app is fun and easy to use.I’m a backyard birdwatcher, but I’ve already id’d so many birds! Now I started using it when I’m out walking and hiking. This app is giving me a new and enjoyable hobby.
I love this app!!!

As a novice bird watcher, this app has been tremendously helpful for me. Great variety of pictures, the picture and sound ID options are awesome! They have both been highly accurate for me. Tons of information and helps me find the best spots to look for certain birds!
A must for birdwatching

Don’t expect it to ID _every_ bird but it’s pretty accurate. What’s more, you can download regional packs that have sounds that aren’t included in eBird. It was invaluable on my trip to Costa Rica.
