User Reviews

Sibley Birds 2nd Edition is praised for ease of use, strong visuals, and field-guide utility with rich identification details. However, recurring concerns include outdated taxonomy, missing new species, unreliable sound playback in certain modes, and several UI/stability issues after updates, including iOS 17 compatibility and split-screen limitations.

Pros

Easy to use and navigate with quick search for identifying birds.
High-quality photos/illustrations; visually appealing and helpful for identification.
Replaces a paper field guide; portable reference for on-the-go birding.
Rich, taxonomically organized information with tips to distinguish similar species.

Cons

Content is not updated regularly; taxonomy changes and new species are missing (e.g., splits and newly established species).
Bird song playback issues; sounds may not work or won't play in silent mode after updates.
UI/UX/navigation limitations; panels within panels and limited split-screen/search capabilities on some devices.
Stability/compatibility problems after updates (glitches, crashes, iOS 17 compatibility) and occasional performance issues.

Recent reviews

Is there an update coming to the Sibley Bird app that will include a Hawaii state list of birds.

I love this app and use it constantly. I just wish they would update the range maps. Many are out of date and often the southern portion of the map is not visible, so you can’t see the winter range. If it was a free app I wouldn’t complain.
