Incredible

Phenomenal accomplishment to track these tiny creatures during their impossible migration.

God is incredible!

I am obsessed with this app

10 out of 10 would recommend. 🦋🦋🦋 Am hoping you will offer miles as a unit of viewing; brain hurts from the mathing 😁

New improved app: much better!

Just beginning to explore the updated app today. It provides so much more information; I can see it will be more fun to use. Have yet to successfully scan my first tagged butterfly; will keep trying!

Need miles instead of kilometers

Last year this app showed distance in miles, this year it’s kilometers. I’m not sure why this option isn’t available now.

I use this app every day during the fall Monarch Migration

I use it to analyze the flight paths and behavior of Monarchs migrating through Indiana.
