## What is SENED BirdWorld?

BirdWorld - the first global birding app. BirdWorld is a groundbreaking app that enables you to create a list of your sightings and take part in fun bird tick challenge. You can also browse through the entire list of global birds, via a chosen region or taxonomy. 

Many entries contain beautiful images from one of the greatest avian imagery databases BIA, a link to the Wikipedia and BirdLife International entry, the taxonomical tree according to the most current research, as well as a map of its global distribution.

An interactive map lets you browse the planet and peek into the list of birds inhabiting every part of the planet.

The taxonomy list lets you inspect the branches of the most current tree of life of the bird species.

Finally you can inspect your private “Life List” and share it with your friends. This contains the exact location and time of your observation, plus any notes you care to add. Each species has SENED points associated to it, which accumulate and allow to gain new levels. The points have been determined according to their conservation status (IUCN & BirdLife International) as well as their population where available.

It is also possible to record or edit your sightings after you made them.

We wish you much enjoyment using the app to study birds, plan your birding trips and record your sightings.

The SENED team.

The In-App Purchases are "range extenders" past your home continent. You can choose to add the continents as you wish or purchase the global coverage at a discount.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t help identify

*2019-02-09, version 1.2.0*

Just spent way too much money on this app for a list of all the birds in the world. I can get that elsewhere. I thought it would have functionality like iBird to help identify a particular species that I saw and didn’t know the name of. What good does this do me if I already know the name of the bird? I’ve never reviewed an app before but I’ve also never paid over $50 like I did for this one (worldwide version). My bad for not fully researching first. I have no idea how this app is supposed to help me.
