this game is bad and a wast of time
no stars
This would be cool if it worked
Love the idea of virtual birdwatching on the Wingspan game. Very Pokemon Go-like, but with real birds. Unfortunately, any time something happened, the game lagged or outright crashed making it basically unusable. Reload and get forced to make an avatar, which immediately crashes as soon as it loads that. Instructions were unclear for Wingspan, as well. Needs a tutorial.

Can this game work on an iphone13? Thanks
buggy
Needs some work right now. Whenever I click on my card icon, nothing happens to see my birds. Could be a great companion with the wingspan app. Would be great to get some bird info as well.
Pokémon Go for Birders
I have had this app since it was first introduced. I gave up playing it at first because there were so many issues but they are working on getting the glitches out. The last week I have been playing it has been entertaining, but still has some frustration points. For example collecting food doesn’t always work. Food stops seem so few and far that it would be great if they actually worked. But sometimes you think you collected the food (it updates on your current screen as one more than before) but if you exit out and start the app again it reverts back to the total before the stop. Birds sometime are frozen and won’t collect, or won’t be there when you get to the site. Small complaints to a relatively fun game. At least it is getting me moving and providing some entertainment during these stressful times!

Worst app ever
Time I’ll never get back 😡
Good idea, needs development
It’s OK. I like the idea for the Wingspan game a lot: it’s kind of a Pokémon Go but for birds. Some recommendations:
1. Have a “How to use” guide or something that reviews the features and how things work: for example I see icons on the map but apparently am not close enough for them to activate. How close do I have to be? How do I activate them? It kind of seems automatic, but that’s not consistent in opening then. I can also click on them, but it doesn’t seem to do anything
2. If I have the app open and am near an icon, it seems to automatically trigger the encounter which is annoying since it takes a while until I can exit it (which I frequently need to do since I don’t have the required food to get birds)
3. Add more gamification
4. Make it easier to see which birds are collected (separate screen with a grid?) as opposed to scrolling through them. Also, give more info on the birds. It would be awesome if this was connected to a database of info that I could reference to help me learn birds better
5. Personally, I’m not ever going to share a video reaction of me catching a bird, but this is the default progression of the app. I would make this optional or easier to exit
6. The location tracking is a bit off and frequently shows I’m in a place that I’m not, which is frustrating if I’m trying to get someplace specific
7. This is a huge drain on my battery, preventing me from using this frequently

What is Wrong
I know the developers worked hard on this game and it is extremely hard to do so I give them a tip of the hat there. What is wrong with people, have people gotten so lazy that they don’t want to get off the couch or they don’t want to leave their property and look for real birds, seeing and finding a real bird or gorilla for example is such a far more amazing experience then looking at an animated picture on their phone. This world is becoming even sadder, with people who create games like this we are going to lose our natural world, because people won’t have the real thrill of finding a real bird, or wanting to do anything about them disappearing, just sad.

Would be great if it worked
Th app crashes as soon as a bird pops up
Buggy beta birding
I was excited to play Wingspan in a live AR format, because I love the board game and I love birding in real life. I found the app to be clunky and unpolished. The game goals are unclear and there is no clear way for me to control who sees my videos or who can follow me on the platform. Navigating the app itself was pretty confusing. In a few years I hope this gets un-buggy and more private/usable/interesting, but for now I say: don’t waste your time.

Cool idea but hard to use
i felt the overall experience felt slow. i found myself looking at what other people made because i don’t know what a lot of icons do
Forced Login
Really? Why make people sign up / login before they even see the app? Circa 2009
Password annoying!!!
I know this looks like a very unique game and it looks like a lot of fun but maybe let get set up to do a PASSWORD!!!! Then it says error and it’s driving me nuts I’ve done it about 15 times making so many different passwords and I CANT!!!
Omg
I need help sighing in
Cool app!
I loved the idea and haven’t seen anything like this. It was a little hard to navigate around initially but you need to get the hang of it. I found it difficult to navigate from 0-7 without getting stuck in between. It’s a great that it intends to be a social media platform but I was so relieved to find that I could download and share. One suggestion is that maybe the home page shouldn’t display the latest video as the entire screen gets a little messy and the other widgets don’t stand out given they’re already very colorful. I’d also like to see a little more feedback on the buttons(home, search, etc). The color change doesn’t quite cut it given they’re a little small. Small suggestions aside, I loved loved the idea! It’s so cool and easily beats the GIF and other features Insta and Snapchat are coming up with.

So much fun. This app has delighted everyone from my 2yr old daughter to my 70yr old Father-in-law. Can’t wait for even more creators to get ahold of this tech and community.
