### 5/5 — Most Impressive

*2017-08-18, version 1.1*

As far as natural history apps go, this one is far and away the most impressive of the many I have used. It is packed full of information, with many photos and vocalizations, and is comprehensive! What was already great was enhanced by the recent addition of a mapping feature, allowing the user to see just those species possible at a specific location. And it is iOS11 ready too!
