## What is Bird ID?

Bird ID turns your iPhone into a field guide that fits in your pocket. Snap a photo of any bird and AI identifies the species in seconds — or record a 10-second clip of its call. See what other birders have actually spotted near you, drawn from the world's largest community-science database.

IDENTIFY ANY BIRD INSTANTLY
Snap a photo of a bird and our AI identifies the species in seconds. Get the common name, scientific name, key markings to look for, and full habitat info — all in one beautifully laid out field-guide page. Don't have a clear photo? Record a 10-second clip of the call instead — sound identification works just as well.

DISCOVER WHAT'S SPOTTED NEAR YOU
A live "Spotted near you" feed shows the species other birders have actually reported within 25 km of you in the last 14 days, sorted by how common they are. Powered by eBird, the global community-science database run by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. A "Rare nearby" callout pops up when something unusual is reported in your area — perfect for chasing a once-in-a-season sighting.

LEARN THEIR SONGS, DIET & HABITAT
Every identification opens a complete species page: photo, description, habitat, range, behaviour, and a real recording of the bird's call from the wild. Sourced from Wikipedia and the Xeno-canto recording library — no synthetic AI fluff.

BUILD YOUR PERSONAL BIRD COLLECTION
Every bird you identify is saved to your collection. Browse what you've seen, when, and where, with the photos you took. Share standout sightings as beautifully composed cards to Social media, iMessage, or anywhere.

A NEW BIRD EVERY DAY
A daily-rotating "Bird of the day" surfaces something interesting from your local area, picked from notable nearby observations or less-common species you might otherwise miss. New bird every 24 hours.

BUILT FOR BIRDERS, NOT TECH ENTHUSIASTS
The app feels like a printed field guide — calm, editorial, restrained. No sparkles, no neon gradients, no chatbot energy. Just the bird and what you need to know.

PERFECT FOR
- Backyard birdwatchers
- Hikers and nature photographers
- Families and kids learning about wildlife
- Travel birders chasing species in new areas
- Anyone curious about that bird at the feeder
