Unsupported

Do not make my mistake and purchase. Unsupported app

Search is non-intuitive

New user. Failing to use search satisfactorily for obvious birds. Disappointed

iBird apps the Best

I own iBird Pro, iBird Hawaii, iBird UK Pro Guides to Birds, iBird Journal and they are the BEST. Never carry a printed guide again. I have shared viewing of my app on adventure hiking with others and they are always impressed & plan to get them to use. Thanks iBird for fantastic APPS and lightening our load!

Good, but flawed

Probably the best app for reference and is genuinely really useful; however, the extensions just don’t work. I’ve been using the app for a few years now and, although the dev team informed me they were looking into bug fixes to get it all working (emailed me when I voiced me problems to them), nothing was ever fixed and there’s been radio silence since.
For the parts of the app that actually work, it’s good, so if you go for it, just get the base version.

Disappointed !

App is missing several birds regularly seen here. Great Egret, Glossy Ibis.. app needs to be updated to match reality.

Disappointed

Why after purchasing this app do I find all the adjoining websites and information are down with the excuse of « Being updated with new software » How long is available soon? Be wary before purchasing

Doesn’t work and insufficient support

Non responsive to taps. Can’t take tutorials cause they don’t work. No response from support.

Excellent bird ID for sights & sounds

Excellent bird ID for sights & sounds - always return to iBird app to help with my identification. Fantastic app - thank you 😊

Overpriced abs basic

£14.99, and then you have to pay another £14.99 if you want the journal component? Very unimpressed. Bird ID U.K. provides most of the features you need for £3.99, or you can eBird completely free.

Very good app about North America Bird

But i have some mistakes about bird names. I send you a email about this .today. my name is Peter Lane

BirdUK

This app is very easy to use and contains a wealth of information.

The birdsongs sounds facility is particularly good and I have largely replaced my books with the app while outside with my binoculars.

I’ve used BirdUK for several years now and can thoroughly recommend it.

Pleased

Excellent!

Pretty hopeless

Not even as good as free apps. Implicated to use and not accurate. When looking for birds throws out ones with different colours for example. Not very comprehensive either. Better off buying the ladybird book of British birds. Waste of money

Top birding app

Been a user for several years and I am well satisfied.
My favourite feature is the bird song & call clips. Improvements to audio clips are always welcome. Accepting common name searches is very good unlike other apps !

Does NOT work with journal

This is a potentially excellent application which I have been using for several years, however, the app advertises integration with Journal which just does not work. Make sure you do not waste your money thinking that it does. This is blatant marketing lying.

BAM doesn’t work

This app is ok, but not great, at bird ID. The images are misleading at times, and the information is sparse. I’m giving the one star rating because the developers are selling the BAM feature from the uk app and they know it’s broken. Simply doesn’t work.

Its one of the better apps for birding

I tried a number of inexpensive apps and decided this was the most appropriate for me as a novice. I find the search facility really good and I think the sounds really help ID requirements.
I have written up some notes on various birds but it would be better if I could pull up a summary of all my notes, as I could then easily check what I had seen/heard in the last month/year etc.
Contrary to a number of reviewers I think this app is just fine.

Disappointed with this expensive App

Thought it would have bird song recognition but sadly not

Very Handy

This is a very useful app that I love using in general when looking at the birds. It helps you to identify the more unusual birds and is marvellous if you see a bird that is not quite what you expect.

Love this app

I find this a very handy app when out and about . It’s easy to find what you’re looking for. Some people complain they want more info - but I feel that for me there is almost everything I need. Where I want more info I use reference books at home.
