Very cool

Camera works great, software a little clunky but I’m figuring it out as I go.

Great when it works

App is super buggy. Constantly makes me reconnect my bird feeder. The AI recognition is nice, when it works.

Also it’s just one sales pitch to buy more things.

Love used to love this app, now it will not trigger when there is movement

I loved this app when I first got it because it would trigger when a bird went into the nesting box. All of the sudden it quit working, however, if I see a bird on the nesting box, I can hit the live button and see the bird, but it will not alert me unless I happen to open the app. I’ve tried to get help from Birdfy and it’s extremely frustrating because it’s a five minute delay for each response on the chat.
