Comments:
I could hear a blackbird warning from 30m away, the app came up with a crow so I thought I would give it another go, same result so I will now delete it
As a complete novice in the field, I find this programme very easy to use. It is very well constructed, and it has added a great richness to listening to birds both in my garden and on woodland walks. The facility to listen to examples of different bird songs and calls is particularly valuable, and to be able to play back my own recordings together with textual analysis is a great boon. It helpfully also shows a percentage reliability value to each song registered. Excellent.
I would like to give this 5 stars as it is a great concept and I like its design. BUT it does not include many habitats, and excludes upland/mountains/heathland/moorland. Please add these? Also, it can't identify quite a few birds, including owls. Including uncommon birds would be nice, and being able to select more than one habitat too. (For eg. coastal moorland/farmland.)
I'm giving this 5 star for the free trial alone. It's accurate and extremely educational. I'd like to appeal to the designers and ask to get rid of the paid version which according to others doesn't work and just keep it as a free app. This will go well in helping monitor birds especially now we're experiencing climate change. All should be doing our part to preserve nature NOT making money out of nature. There are other ways to raise funding.
It's very good and picks up bird sounds quite faint, however I wish that you could see past sessions like you do when you record them rather than the way it does at the moment, which is not that user friendly when trying to show someone else the bird sounds you recorded during any particular session, or even a summary of them all."
