Excellent bird app. But you are missing one bird! The " great egret"

Of no use to me. If I see a small black bird and I don't think it is a blackbird, how do I search for "small bird, black colour" to find out what my options are. That seems like such a logical need and it is the only thing I wanted to do, the reason why installed this app is to find birds by how look they look and what size they are.

Upon opening the app, it told me to allow data collection for its 189 partner groups and to install a google ad tracker on my phone. I just want to identify birds, I immediately backed out and uninstalled. No thank you, absolutely not.

Don't use it often, but very useful when I do. The recorded birdsongs are useful too but could be better quality if possible. An important app for helping to preserve what's left of our much diminished birdlife in UK.

Major help for a relative newcomer to twitching. Got a good list of my feathery visitors :-) Edit: I've had it for ages now and it's gone on various devices with different Android versions, and it works on all. Definitely recommend it!

Initial opinion is very good. Simple to use, but would be nice if all menus/entries were listed alphabetically, or if there was that option.

Great app for identifying what's in my garden. One suggestion for improvement.... Could you make the list of types of birds sorted A-Z? Hard to use the BROWSE functions when the list is not alphabetically sorted. It would make the user experience much easier for me. Thanks!

Great app. The only improvement would be more pics, and perhaps more sounds - but they can be added as and when. So... with that in mind, 9.9 / 10

Find it good bonus to have both pictures & sounds. What would really good is to have a filter so you could say for instance black head black body & 3 - 6 inches then that could be .. Give all choices Or do what plant recogniser does match bird from your picture

Very useful as I always have my phone with me. For general speedy identification, although there seems to be several birds I have spotted that were not present,& could not be identified.
