BirdNET

Though I wish people would stop calling any program that sorts a large database AI … To try to fool the program, I sent several separate songs by our local fantastically musical mocking bird. No matter what bird the MB was imitating, the program was not “fooled”, probably because a different beak/head/vocal apparatus of the bird, run through a Fast Fourier Transform presented a different frequency pattern I couldn’t distinguish blindly. Missed most of the Spring thru Fall so I didn’t have much of a chance to play, but between the cellphone mic and the server, the one game I played worked flawlessly.

I’d used BirdNet successfully for quite a while, but it suddenly stopped working about 4 months ago. (Records fine, but won’t analyze. I get a “try again later” message.) Hoping it’ll be fixed soon, because it was a great app!

U live in PR and app always miss our birds maybe soñé updates about it thanks!

It never works. Record, select, no result, repeat…..

I’m usually not a big bird enthusiast but when I moved out of the city and kept hearing new birds for the first time, I stumbled upon this app and it has really piqued my interest in bird identification! Im impressed how well it picks up bird calls in recording even among suburban traffic noise, and accuracy seems to be 80-90% with noise interference! Really helps people jump into the world of bird identification even if we don’t have a lot of experience. Plus it links quickly to articles and info. Highly recommend and definitely has cool potential for citizen scientist data collection!

I am repeatedly amazed at how quick and accurate this app is. It identifies the birds using even a couple of seconds of sound. I was watching hummingbirds at a feeder and one took off with the slightest chirp and it got it right. The interface is very well done as you can watch it recording and just select the audio signature your interested in for ID. Very nice. I recommended to others and they love it, too.

Unfortunately the app is broken won’t even open up anymore

This app is awesome and tons of fun to use when out exploring nature. One feature I would really like to see is the ability to analyze/isolate certain frequencies on the spectrogram. This would be super helpful to remove background noise or target specific birds when multiple are singing at the same time.

Always pops up try again later

Again iPhones are terrible. Play Store for Android allows editing.
