## Review summary

Users praise Terra Listens for ongoing improvements and solid bird-monitoring with cross-platform access, but repeatedly report reliability problems: inaccurate IDs, buggy app behavior, slow support, poor website integration, and feature gaps versus Merlin.

### Pros

- Regular updates add features and improve the app over time.
- Strong bird-monitoring capability—listen to birds from indoors and the device detects a broad range of birds.
- Cross-platform usability with a slick interface (iPhone, iPad, and Windows browser).
- In some setups, the Terra device detects more birds than Merlin.

### Cons

- ID accuracy is inconsistent: misidentifications and missing common species.
- App stability issues: buggy behavior, crashes, and playback not stopping.
- Customer support is slow or unresponsive.
- Website/account integration is weak: login issues and limited functionality.
- Feature gaps compared with Merlin and user expectations (audio verification, sharing, filters).
