## Firefinch Reviews in Südafrika

### *---- "Expensive for what you get."
Not impressed, the features are not more than a lot of other bird apps but the cost is high. Suggest you look at BirdPro as an better alternative.
-- jame vee, 2024-01-29

### ***** "Amazing"
I have been using this app for a month or more and it has enabled me to start identifying and confirming bird species through their calls. I have always struggled with bird calls but the way the calls are communicated (even giving the other background calls) has been massively beneficial
-- CritterNurse, 2023-12-09

### ***** "Fantastic and unique"
This app is a perfect balance between brevity and detail for each species account. Moreover, the added features such as Dawn Chorus and frequent updates of new species as well as the additional content for existing species, is unique. It’s a true dynamic and live app that provides much interaction.
-- au5tr1ng3r, 2023-12-07

### ***-- "Not many birds"
This app doesn’t include any starlings or sunbirds. It’s lacking in quite a few species and mainly has a lot of info about seabirds. You have to pay to use identification features, which isn’t ideal. It’s a good app for keeping track of sightings and locations but the downside is that you can only keep track very specific bird species. 

It has potential, but it is lacking a lot. Especially with paid features despite the app seeming like it isn’t fully complete yet.
-- Kelly Strydom, 2023-11-16

### ***** "Absolutely brilliant!"
The best bird app for Southern Africa!! An added bonus: weekly podcasts, with accompanying photographs and/or illustrations jam-packed with information and anecdotes. Yes, it’s expensive, but ABSOLUTELY worth it!
-- Dawie Rotteveel, 2023-09-14

### ***** "One of the best!"
What an amazing app.  It is clear that  a lot of effort went in to making this app!

When the time is right, please add a section where you can test your knowledge with a quiz of bird sounds and images.   I find it easiest to learn new birds once I get questioned about them. Bird sounds is not as easy to learn though and if you could develop a way to learn these sounds, even as an alternative app, I will pay big money for such an app!
-- stevehehehehehehehe, 2023-08-12

### ***** "Fantastic"
Wow. What an informative, intuitive and extremely well designed bird app. Excellent quality.
-- King-Lear, 2023-06-11

### ***** "Excellent app"
Terrific local app, with a local bird focus that beats the international apps for me. Love the detailed and beautiful sketches, bird calls with annotations, handy tips and fascinating blog posts. And best of all, the team is always happy to interact if you pop them a mail asking for birding advice!
-- Tomito.18, 2023-05-30

### ***** "App of the year! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"
The amount of work and attention to detail that has gone into this app is evident and so appreciated. So much I love about it, especially the annotations in the bird call sonographs - a genius addition. Works beautifully on iPhone 5se with iOS 15.7.1.
-- Ssnapdragon, 2023-05-30

### *---- "Outrageous pricing"
Thia app is not for all avid birdwatchers  - too expensive!
-- Hendrik02, 2023-03-14

### ***** "Beautiful app!"
This app is so well designed, and the illustrations are beautiful. It’s comprehensive, considered and educational. As a novice birder, I’m learning so much, and I love that new updates are added all the time. Definitely worth the purchase!
-- t_jhb, 2022-12-08

### *---- "Nasty subscription service"
I downloaded this app with great ideas to test it out.
Can’t even test it without giving them your whole pedigree and subscribing to a really expensive monthly service.
Quite overpriced when you look at the other options out there.
Or just go buy a good book?
Basically it is just too expensive and I am too scared to test it out and then get loaded with a monthly bill.
-- JacquesZA 123456, 2022-09-24

### ***** "Really impressed"
I’m really impressed with this app. A lot of thought has gone into making this very user friendly. The descriptions are brilliant, while the photos are well chosen. Faansie just has a way of making birding interesting but also easy. The market needed this. I’ve sent one or two pieces of feedback to the team (for further development), with immediate responses. That’s fantastic. I also have the Sasol and Roberts apps but this will become my go-to. As regards the ongoing fee, I know it’s a big change for some. However, I think it’s appropriate. To have this team continuing to develop this world class app will need some funds. It’s not that much money and totally worth it for what you’re getting. Go team Firefinch, with this quality you’ll conquer the market.
-- MartinPot1974, 2022-09-19

### ***** "Simply marvelous"
The art work is unlike anything we’ve seen in apps like this. It’s extremely user friendly. The quality of the photos is excellent and the annotations on them helps a lot! Highly recommended!
-- Pikkie_101, 2022-09-18

### ***** "Excellent"
Excellent app. Can’t wait for the full version.
-- maldirkie, 2022-05-08

### ***** "Great app!"
Thanks for the effort really appreciate the work you do for birding in South Africa.
-- LeonPhotos, 2022-02-10

### ***** "Incredible App"
So very impressed with this brilliant app. Looking forward to the full version.
-- Derek-Solomon, 2022-01-22
