I love that this app is free. Audobon makes amazing apps! But this app has some blurry pics for the birds and some of the birds don't offer sounds. :( But this is a great app overall and sometimes it crashes. :) ### 4/5 — Almost there... *2012-03-11, version 1.3* This is almost a 5* app. The major issue is some of the pics are either blurry or of low quality. Other then that it has all the info you would need. I live in eastern pa and many of the same birds are here too. ### 4/5 — Model application *2011-08-08, version 1.3* I so want to give 5 stars but I can't because the images are very (extremely in some cases) poor quality and pixelated. Otherwise this is a model app and is amazingly large and thorough. Fortunately, I live in eastern pa and most of the species live here also. This app has tons of information. I wish there was more information in the "discussion" sections. A very fine app. ### 5/5 — Awrsome useful for Michigan too!! *2011-05-17, version 1.2* Love the sounds and pics!! ### 5/5 — Great App *2011-05-14, version 1.2* This is a must have App if you're in the NYC area. It seems to have most of the species in the New York State area. it's easy to use and the photos are great too. ### 5/5 — love it *2010-04-21, version 0* cool app!! the map is awesome! ### 5/5 — Birds of Central Park *2010-04-03, version 0* I love the month by month feature. As a beginning birder living near Central Park, this will be great on my frequent walks through the park. A very creatively constructed app. Thank you! ### 4/5 — Nice addition *2010-04-03, version 0* Great idea for the birders in NYC. Should be on everyones iphone or itouch this spring, enjoy this app and its full features. Best app to date!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not functional *2022-12-18, version 2.21* App requires sign in, but will not let you sign in either through Facebook or through email. Error message both ways. Tried submitting a ticket on audoban website and also got an error message there ### 1/5 — Thanks! *2022-12-11, version 2.21* Clean, neat, precise and to the point. Also high quality pictures. ### 1/5 — “Unexpected server error, please try again.” *2022-10-07, version 2.21* “Unexpected server error, please try again.” Is what you see, Nothing is what you get. ### 1/5 — Unable to download Nov 5, 2015 update; app is dead. *2015-11-09, version 1.4* Following the November 5, 2015 update, I get the error message "Unable to Download App". I've tried dozens of times to update the app as well as deleting the app and reinstalling it, all of which fail. The app is in limbo on my iPhone and does not work at all. It will not open. It will not re-download. Please help. ### 1/5 — Audubon bird guide *2015-11-09, version 1.4* The app will not download it's been trying to update for days!! ### 1/5 — APP FAIL *2012-12-16, version 1.3* PURE JUNK! Failed repetedly to load on my Touch. Other apps loaded just fine so it is not my device. FAIL ### 2/5 — Will not download after update *2015-11-06, version 1.5* After the November 2015 update, the app will not download. I continue to receive the following error… “There was a problem downloading. The URL could not be found on the server." ### 2/5 — Bad Crops *2012-07-01, version 1.3* The images were cropped by a blind photographer. On a small display, the image of each bird must fill the limited available space. Showing a wide-angle view of a snowy field with a tiny owl in the background is plain foolish. Of course it shows no detail of the bird! This is a consistent problem throughout the app. ### 2/5 — KuroNeko *2012-02-04, version 1.3* Pictures are not HD. You got what you pay for. ### 4/5 — Great collection of birds. Nice photos. *2016-04-16, version 1.8* Love that when I want to confirm an ID or show some one the difference between a red headed and red bellied wood pecker that I have photos on my phone. Sadly I can't always pull a traditional field guide out of my hand bag ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great app! *2018-11-28, version 2.19* This is my new go-to since the main Audubon app updated and lost features.. ### 5/5 — Great birding app! *2018-04-21, version 2.17* Best app for birders! I hope it never changes! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2017-07-11, version 2.11* I love this app and it gives u so many bird so you can read about them 😎😎😎😎❤️❤️❤️❤️ ### 5/5 — Central Park Birds *2016-08-01, version 2.2* The best app ever For birds 8/1/2016 ### 5/5 — Five stars *2016-04-15, version 1.8* Awesome app for birders like me to learn and recognize. ### 5/5 — Central Park Birds Great!! *2016-03-20, version 1.7* I have lived in New York for over 50 years now and I've been a Birder for 25 of these years but birds in Central Park?! Really?! A resounding YES came back to me, it's a must see. One bird in particular has been sighted there The Wood Duck! That's my reason for writing this review. Yup they're here at The Park along with other water fowl. It doesn't matter what season just GO, you'll be amazed! LJ Pastore birder at large or is it birder that large? ### 5/5 — Use it 1st. *2015-12-09, version 1.6* This is my "go-to" app. I'm an intermediate birder. My grand-daughter and I love to look at the wild life in our rural yard. This app is the start of many investigations. ### 5/5 — This app is excellent! *2015-11-28, version 1.5* This is my go to app every time I have an encounter with a new bird or when I'm not sure about a bird species. I use it in Central Park, all around the city and in upstate NY. My only suggestion is to give the mute swans 3 stars rather than 4 since I and some of the birders I know haven't seen any in the park in the last 3 years. ### 5/5 — Great but not great pics *2013-07-16, version 1.3* Some pictures are good and some are bad I like this app because of the information and the fun of it! I don't really care about the pics except for when I can barely see them in real life :D otherwise and awesome app ### 5/5 — Another home run *2012-01-29, version 1.3* This company's nature apps are universally top-drawer and this one is another little gem. I'm not a very serious birder but find this a most useful app. It's very intuitive and should help me identify many more birds. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
