Interested, but hard to use
Very excited to download when I heard of this, but it seems rather clunky in which it is also hard to obtain relevant results. Eg on my iPhone the animal marker disappears if I zoom in or out of the map even slightly which is frustrating. It would be great to be able to see, eg all white storks rather than having have to favourite each bird. I also hoped the app might show animals actual journeys ie from ‘here to there’. Will stay with it for a while though - it’s a wonderful idea!

update
i found a bird and it was in that place 41 years ago…
PLEASE UPDATE MORE OFTEN WE’RE STILL HERE
So, I’m writing this in regards to the app itself and the animals. I had went to go check on freedom, the eagle born near me in captivity and etc. and went to see he hasn’t been active in 2 years which ultimately broke my heart. Also, if there’s a way to make it easier to click on the birds on the map it would be amazing because the first 5 minutes trying to work the app it had me thinking all the animals weren’t updated in about 2 years or so and I was about to seriously sob thinking either the birds had their trackers taken off, or they had all passed away which is just… couldn’t bare to think that … just. If there’s any way to update the app to perform a little better, and I just wish someone would explain what’s up with freedom ☹️🥲

Calm down, grumpy reviewers. This is a great app.
It takes time to tag the animals. What are you doing to help with that effort? Birds happen to be the most interesting because they often travel great distances to surprising locations. I love the app because I learned about a bald eagle named Freedom who was born in captivity near me in NC and now flies 100s of miles up to nearly Canada. I’ve seen his parents who are still in a zoo. How cool. Suggestion: Find a favorite bird, save the bird as a favorite and watch his/her movements. Find a child to share your interest. Great app, great fun. Thank you to all the people who made and support this educational and fun app.
