Cons

Recent reviews

I have enabled location for the Forecast option both in my device settings and in the app settings and it still thinks I’m in Ohio which is not where I live. Also, there are MANY false IDs that come up, often for birds that are never found here. This app is just about useless.

While I’m not usually a bird type of person, the interface made it super easy to navigate around and specifically being able to ask the Chatbot some information about it. This app is very well done, very well laid out and is 100% accessible with VoiceOver on iOS. However, I believe this app should be modified to also support iPadOS, for people who like using their iPads when they’re out and about. Also specifically, this app should be designed to work in both light mode and dark mode, as someone who pretty much relies on dark mode for all of my apps, this would be a no-brainer. In addition to all of this, there should be an area for us to be able to just listen to the birds within the app, so that maybe we can use them as a background sound when we’re sleeping or something like that. All of these things and more I believe can make this app even better. With that being said, this app is amazing, very well done and would highly recommend this to people. As someone who helped you a little bit and giving you ideas regarding this app, I believe that overall you guys have made the right app for all of us, but maybe with some of these improvements can make it even more accessible and better. As someone who I’ve known from a few of my classes, just watching you build an app from scratch is pretty remarkable. Thanks for such an app and I look forward to seeing all of these improvements!

A friend showed me this app when he pulled his phone out and found the species of bird that was outside our school. I had to try for myself and found a red-winged blackbird, in the parking lot of the local cinema! Definitely recommend.
