Use the Cornell University app which is much much better and free! ### 1/5 — Poor *2026-07-15, version 1.6.8* Difficult to navigate. Screen locks when a dialogue box opens. Have to close phone down . ### 1/5 — Bird Sounds Identifier Call ID *2026-07-10, version 1.6.7* This is for an experienced birder or someone that wants to become one. I was under the impression that after I recorded all of these various birds singing & chirping right outside my window, this app would identify each bird by their lovely songs and then I’d be able to use of those as ringtones. If I can get my money back that would be my goal, but this is a lovely concept - just not the one I was looking for. ### 1/5 — Why pay? *2026-07-09, version 1.6.7* This app is pay to use- but there is a better one that is free! It feels dishonest. The recordings you make do not save to analyze later- so if you do not have service, you are out of luck. It also incorrectly identifies birds regularly. Do not recommend. ### 1/5 — Not free at all *2026-07-08, version 1.6.7* It used to identify for free, but now it doesn’t. Typical right wing capitalism bs. ### 2/5 — Not so great *2026-07-07, version 1.6.7* I regret getting the subscription. Often, the birds that I record are described as being found in south Asian or Hawaii and I live in Pennsylvania. Very disappointing. ### 1/5 — Sucks *2026-07-05, version 1.6.7* Far from user friendly & many bird calls do not load & just sits w/the loading prompt circling for ever!! Why not allow me to my bird call into microphone,to ID the bird ,,rather than a needle in a haystack,with the generic input options !!?? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Do not buy this app *2026-08-31, version 1.7.2* This app is terrible. For identifying Australian birds you might as well throw darts at a dart board blind folded. No ability to get a refund with a rip-off price tag. Completely dishonest. ### 1/5 — Bird sounds identifier *2026-08-30, version 1.7.2* Great app, for about five seconds then it asks you to pay and you can’t ask it anymore questions. I was really disappointed because I really wanted to attract an indigo bunting and I couldn’t get enough information. I am a fourteen year girl who just wants to know about the indigo bunting ### 1/5 — Fake Merlin *2026-08-28, version 1.7.1* This is a total scam app. Get Merlin it’s the real one ### 1/5 — Didn’t work for me *2026-08-27, version 1.7.1* You get 1 free try before you have to pay to get it working. On my free try I recorded a bird call and the app got it completely wrong. Not paying for something that has 100% wrong track record for me ### 1/5 — Not accurate *2026-08-26, version 1.7.1* It’s misidentifying birds that are not in my hemisphere ### 1/5 — Logging in *2026-08-23, version 1.7.1* Doesn't work half e time it keeps asking for my password ### 1/5 — Not free trick you into 79 dollars for *2026-08-18, version 1.7.1* I wanted free version and they charged 79 dollars ### 1/5 — Nur mit Geld?! *2026-08-08* schade, dass die App nur noch mit bezahl Funktion läuft. Ich werde sie leider wieder löschen. ### 1/5 — No Tutorials . Bad Screen Alignment *2026-08-03, version 1.6.9* Don’t waste your time or money on this awkward app. You will find it difficult to upload and organize your recordings. ### 1/5 — who knows if it works *2026-08-02, version 1.6.9* I cannot pay $40 to test if it works. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 5 star *2026-08-27, version 1.7.1* Asked for 5 stars on start up.
