Great app!
Very useful to identify birds by their songs.
I am francophone and I love the fact that I can get the names of the birds in French!
Would absolutely recommend this app.

Smart Bird ID is awesome!
This app is very helpful!
After living in Hawai’i for the last 20 years ,moving back to Colorado after being gone for (40 years), my memory of the different birds in Colorado was definitely not the best- actually, I am surprised my interest in birds is so high. My husband (originally from upstate New York) is watching and feeding the birds daily and even with a Colorado backyard bird fold out poster we could not identify many.
The Smart Bird ID is helping with photo, guide and even song ID’s…recently sitting on the front porch I recorded the sounds around me and the app identified a hawk before it was in view which had me aware and looking for it- a beautiful experience! What a JOY!
I highly recommend this app and look forward to using it often at home and in the Colorado wilderness!
Sincerely- Flora

Super Fun
Being more of a casual bird watcher in Western Washington on the Long Beach Peninsula. My wife decided to get four bird feeders with various seeds and see what we attracted. It is so fun to be able to see the different birds flock to the feeders. I use the app to not just find out what birds are present but also to plot them so others can see what birds were found where I live. I also love the bird call feature that lets you record a bird call and the app tells you what bird you are listening to. I currently only have the free version but I am going to get the annual version to unlock all the amazing features. Thanks for developing a great app.

Reminds me of the good old days!
I used to bird watch with my grandmother who seemed to know EVERYTHING about the birds in our backyard. She could name them, imitate their calls and noises, and tell me when and where they migrate! As much as I was able to remember, this app helped fill in the blanks and lead me to even more knowledge about my favorite birds and unfamiliar ones. I’ve picked up my grandma’s torch as the family’s “bird lady” and I couldn’t be happier (not to mention I couldn’t have done it without Smart Bird ID). It’s given me a hobby that helps with my anxiety and depression and gets me out of the house and back into nature! I highly recommend this app!

Love This App
Never did I realize how many different birds live around my home, until I retired and found myself listening to each different song—actually hearing differences, and how unique each one is. I became so curious that I sought out an app for my iPhone that I might use to identify these individual birds I was hearing outside of my window first thing in the morning and throughout the day. I respect the individual who developed and maintains this app, in their spare time. As one who once worked 50-60 hours per week in my career, and developed and maintained a website (different topic) I can appreciate the passion and commitment that it takes to keep something like this going in your “spare” time.

Great app except…
A comprehensive reference and recordkeeper for beginning and advanced birders alike. One downside however, is that I cannot get the recognition by sound function to work. I have checked all of my settings including permissions but every time I press the record button in the app no sound is registered on the screen not even when I tap the phone microphone. It would be great to have this feature working and perhaps it’s only my situation but if not and if a fix is possible that would move this in my mind from a four to a five star app.

Love the whole experience!
I LOVE the app and I feel smart when I can identify birds in our yard and tell my husband! It’s so easy and satisfying!
My only complaint is that many of the birds stop calling the minute I start recording. 😆
I love that I can use many of the features as a beginning birder even without a subscription. It really enticed me to learn more and become a subscriber.
Overall, it is a useful, elegant, ui friendly app. Thank you for enriching the experience of enjoying my backyard and opening my eyes ( ha!) to a whole new hobby!

A well-designed and useful app!
Some bird calls and songs happen out of my sightline, and I love this app for allowing me to quickly record sound and identify the birds. Then I get to read more about the bird, sample its other calls, and even report the bird's location. I use the app in my home garden of many feeders and bird baths, or at the local Wildlife Reserve where many migratory birds pass through seasonally. I like the ID features such as by question/look/size, and calls. There is a ton of good information supplied with the app, like a field guide. I think it's perfect for everyone interested in birds. I tested out quite a few apps before deciding this one is well worth the premium all-in-one subscription membership. Thank you.

Great for identifying birds by sound
I was looking for an app that is easy to use, responds quickly, and would identify birds by sound. This is it. When I hear a bird I want to identify, it is quick to get to the sound option. I like that I can save my identified birds and their sounds and any pictures I took. The free version worked fine, but I wanted more features. The price is right for upgrading. Make sure to understand the different options before selecting the right one for you. I impulsively selected the cheap option. I may upgrade to the more advanced option.
