About

Eyes up, birds in. BirdScribe is a voice-first field companion for birders. Tap record, say what you see ("five rainbow lorikeets in the fig tree") and BirdScribe does the rest: transcribes your words, identifies the species, tags your GPS location, and builds a valid eBird checklist you can import in one step. No typing in the field. No staring at your phone while the bird flies off. HOW IT WORKS Tap Record and speak naturally. Multiple species in one breath is fine BirdScribe matches your words against bird taxonomy, tuned for accuracy You confirm every identification. Nothing is logged without your say-so End your session to review, merge duplicates, and export BUILT FOR REAL FIELD USE Observations save to your device the instant you stop talking Heard-only detection, counts, age, sex, breeding codes, all from your voice Voice notes for everything that isn't a bird ("call Mrs Farmer back") Session recovery if your phone dies mid-walk eBird CSV export, import-tested and format-exact YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS No account. No sign-up. Your observations live on your device. Free, from the team at Kingfisher Birding in the Wet Tropics of Far North Queensland. Built by birders who got tired of typing.

What's New in BirdScribe

2.1

August 4, 2026

Species comments that go to eBird. Add a note to any bird on your list, typed or dictated, and choose whether the original transcript rides along with it. Faster typed corrections. Start typing a species name and BirdScribe suggests matches from the eBird checklist, so every name you pick imports cleanly. Better species matching. Improved handling of similar-sounding names and cockatoo groups, with birds unusual for your area clearly marked rather than hidden from you. Saved locations. Save the spots you bird regularly and reuse them on future trips. Various fixes and refinements throughout.
