Collins Bird Guide

Generally the app is great! However, there are several things I should point out: 1. When I want to see where I saw the bird, the point of the location is moving, so that I can’t understand where I was (I can see it only without zooming out). Moreover, I would suggest adding a map with marked points where I saw birds. 2. I would also suggest to mark the birds I saw in the general dictionary of birds. 3. I would also suggest to make clickable bird names in the lists that I create, so that I can click on the bird I saw and see the picture and the descriptions. Thank you for the dictionary!!

Sad that there are so many extra costs to see the videos and maps. App costs already 18 euros, but to get it completely working you need to pay 30 euros more, making it 50 euros in total!! 👀 Also, these way to expensive videos do not play in fullscreen in on the iPod. So they are only watchable at the size of a post stamp. This needs work. Should be fixable in a simple update… Also please add more filters, so you can filter the birds of your own country. Would be ideal to include also information and images about the nests of the birds. This information is now completely missing, which is a bummer 🪺 Furthermore the app looks amazing.

I would like to have the view similar species button back. It disappeared in the last update 🙁 I would like to be able to select text in the app to be able to use iOS build in function to ‘look up’ a word to find its meaning. This is especially important because only bird names can be set to Dutch. I would like to be able to use the app in landscape orientation. Especially when comparing birds. I would bring the last picture of the introduction about 4 paragraphs down. I would like the widget to use the primary species language.

Why do I only get the French version, and not UK. My French is insufficient.

I’ve used the previous version for years, loved it. But the new version just isn’t intuitive anymore. One of the best features was the ‘View similar species’ function. This function now isn’t easily accessible anymore and when you do select it it doesn’t include the bird from which you want to see similar species. Very annoying and no longer usable in the field. Why doesn’t the logo take you back to the start anymore? Can I get my 2nd edition back?

I loved this app, but the update is full of new bugs: - my lists are gone (I put a lot of work in this! and no, I have no iCloud) - it’s impossible now to compare birds, the new hidden compare function just doesn’t work, that was just such a fantastic tool. Is this the way to make me upgrade for €10?

I can’t save my sightings anymore. Is I save them the next time when I open the app they are gone! This is very frustrating.

A very great app for bird detemination. But the grey texts are hardly readable without glasses. The developers should tweak the app so older birders are able to enlargen the fontsize. Furthermore, I’d recommend the developers to enable users to use dark mode.
