## What is Limosa?

Limosa is a birding app for recording, identifying and sharing bird sightings. Whether you occasionally watch birds in the garden, keep a year list or go birding regularly, Limosa helps you keep your observations organized.

You can quickly enter species, record locations, add photos, videos and sound recordings, and view your sightings on the map. You can also follow other birders, comment on observations and keep track of group sightings together with friends.

What you can do with Limosa

• Log sightings with species, location, photos and notes
• Identify bird sounds with your phone
• View sightings on an interactive map
• Add photos, videos and sound recordings
• Play videos with adaptive quality
• Add co-observers to group sightings
• Comment on observations from others
• Scroll through recent sightings in a feed
• Use species lists based on region and season
• Keep track of your year list and life list
• Follow your progress with the Limosa Score
• Share sightings with friends or keep them private
• Use the app in multiple languages
• Export your data whenever you want

Identifying bird sounds

With Limosa, you can identify bird sounds using your phone. This can be useful when you hear a singing bird but are not completely sure which species it is. The identification feature helps you learn bird songs and confirm species in the field.

Sharing sightings

You can follow other birders, like their sightings and comment on them. For group sightings, you can add co-observers so the same observation also appears on their list.

For sensitive observations, such as breeding birds or vulnerable species, you can decide how visible each sighting should be.

Built for the field

Limosa is designed for use outdoors. The app has a calm, clear interface and is built to help you record a sighting quickly, without too many steps. Photos, videos and audio can be added to observations and stored.

For different kinds of birders

• Beginners: discover species and learn to identify them
• Listers: keep track of your year list, life list and other lists
• Photographers and videographers: add media to your sightings
• Active birders: organize, search and export your observations

Privacy and data

You decide the visibility of your sightings: public, friends only or private. You can export your observation data, and Limosa does not sell your data.

About Limosa

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2026.33.03 — 2026-08-14

What's new in this update:

• Tap a photo in your timeline and you see it large, in a carousel you close again on exactly the spot you left
• The Media Studio has become a proper library: big tiles at your photos' own aspect ratio, at full resolution instead of small squares
• Pick how big the tiles are, and filter by everything, photos, videos or audio, and by what isn't attached to a sighting or outing yet
• Tap an item and you get the picture full screen, with identify and link within reach instead of a screen full of controls
• Select a stack of photos, name the bird once with AI or by searching, and file them all onto the right sighting in one go
• Share a video as an Instagram Story with the Limosa card inside the video itself, instead of a separate card that lands askew on your screen
• Choose per video whether its sound goes out. It's reversible, and your original file is left untouched
• Subspecies now have a page of their own and go by their own name everywhere
• Filter your checklist and your gallery by year
• On the website you can now share or download a sighting's video as an actual video
• Fixed: a link to a new sighting sometimes opened a grey screen
• Fixed: the tip about device information on your media kept coming back after you had dealt with it

### 2026.32.04 — 2026-08-05

What's new in this update:

• An outing shows your photos first, then the map, then any recordings — a walk you mostly listened to now opens on the map instead of a row of sonograms
• Recordings play on the website too, both on an outing and on a sighting
• Media Studio: select several items and delete them in one go
• Species search finds what you're looking for again, including vagrants on the website
• Your badges stay correct when you delete a sighting and post it again
• Species icons sit above your route on the map, and the map keeps its layers
• Sharing: a dark overlay for the card layouts

### 2026.32.01 — 2026-08-04

What's new in this update:

• One screen for sharing — format, layout, content and style in one place, with your walked route on an outing's card
• Identify a recording you already saved, right on your own device
• Species ID runs entirely on our own model — your photos never leave Limosa
• Several routes per outing, and route recording that keeps going in the background and survives a restart
• Merge routes, split them where the track breaks, and export one as GPX with your sightings as waypoints
• The map opens on your own day, with that day's routes on a toggle
• Photo sightings keep their location — a fair guess where there is one, marked as a guess, and fixable everywhere, including sightings saved earlier
• The + button opens your checklist, with camera and gallery in its bar
• Reply to a comment, and add a whole group as co-observers in one tap
• The country picker leads with the countries you actually bird in
• Supporter in Dutch and German, active right after purchase

### 2026.30.13 — 2026-07-25

What's new in this update:

Limosa Supporter is here. A small monthly or yearly contribution keeps Limosa independent and growing — and gives you a Supporter badge, the Supporters group chat, custom profile accent colours, and early access to new features. Cancel any time.

Plus reliability fixes and polish.

### 2026.30.12 — 2026-07-24

What's new in this update:

Sharper bird ID. Photo and video identification now run on our own model, so results are more consistent — and match what your phone recognises offline.

Identify without a connection. Download the model once over WiFi (Settings, Media), then identify offline on both iPhone and Android.

See how each bird was identified. Every AI suggestion now shows which model produced the result.

Plus a faster start and reliability improvements.
