Owls

Where are the owls?


Nice app. No sound
tunepong

This is a nice app that could be a great app after some fixes. Sound does not work on the iPad 3. Some icons are not intuitive e.g. Tape icon for sighting. The full app is the natural upgrade if you are more into birds than the casual user, but would first like to see all the basic features working.


No sound

I no sound. I would not purchased the app if I knew this was the case.


Sound Absence???
HTJJE

We have loved the Peterson apps and used DAILY. Spring birds are arriving, but now neither of the Peterson apps have sound. PLEASE PLEASE FIX!!!!


No sound
Lgudbdkdi

Disappointed. No. #1 reason that I purchased was for sound. Because of this I'm giving one star as this was a selling point in the details. When fixed, I will give 5.


No sound

Disappointing. Sound worked initially but now does not work. Even reloaded and tried hard reset and still no sound otherwise a good app.

Missing eagles? Come on. Would be a good app if it wasn't a commercial for the $10 version.


Hard to use
JDnAL

Once you get into the section viewing the drawings of the birds, there's no way to get out. I had to close the application and then be sure to shut it down in my iPhone. There was no way to get back to the main menu. This needs to be fixed.


Love it
Lmystltrd

Have enjoyed this app so much this spring. Use it daily to help identify the new birds as they pass through Louisiana. Other reviewers mentioned sound not working, but mine is fine.


Good app, false advertising
Frozen IPad

Good app. Sound is a nice feature. This app advertises the full Peterson Birds app for $5. The current price is $10.
