Great App

Worried about efficiency on

Great App, but WHY three 1GB+ updates in four days ... Please have some respect for user data charges and package your updates more efficiently!

Fantastic App

Excellent Search functionality making it easy to narrow the list of possible birds for ID. Embedded multimedia with sounds and video. Broadsheets of images to quickly scan and isolate bird ID. Easy navigation and comparison of birds. Clearly a lot of care went into planning this app.

Magnifique!

J'ai plusieurs guides ornithos sur iPad et iPhone. Celui-ci est de loin le plus beau, le plus complet, celui qui offre le plus de possibilités. La traduction française de G. Lesaffre est excellente, la reproduction des dessins est sans failles. J'aime beaucoup la possibilité de pouvoir choisir deux langues. Imaginez : lorsque vous demandez une comparaison, l'application offre la possibilité de comparer seulement l'adulte ou l'immature à celui des espèces semblables. Et je n'écris pas sur les cartes, les chants, les cris, les choix de langues, ... J. Larivée

How a field guide app should be made

Birdbrianscan on

Just picked up this truly gorgeous app and I'm beyond impressed. Takes good quality content from Collins' print editions and applies really innovative graphic design and GUI. Focus on showing similar birds to compare. Audio, range maps and text all in easy reach. There are in-app purchase options for three video libraries (common, less common, and rarities) as well as one to add the BTO breeding bird atlas maps for the UK. I added the common birds video on my iPad, while on my iPhone I'll omit that to save space. Similar bird comparisons are 'curated' meaning the app publishers maintain lists of which ones you should also compare. I thought the intro said I could make my own pairings as well, but if so I couldn't find this feature. All other functions are very well presented and easy to see where to tap or pinch to get them. In all, a brilliant app and well worth the purchase price.
