## What is SuperBirder?

Your intelligent birding companion — identify, record, and relive every encounter.

- Powered by the open-source OSEA model to identify 10,964 bird species worldwide, with a major accuracy boost. Head-aware smart cropping shows the common name, English name, and scientific name at a glance.
- Local species filtering makes your birding more precise and professional.
- Save every sighting, build your personal field guide, and pin each discovery on the map — map pins now show species thumbnails, so you can tap to navigate to the exact spot.
- Share to the community in one tap and explore popular birding hotspots with fellow birders.
- Smart statistics quantify your species count, observation time, and regional distribution, plus a Year in Review by country and region — witness how far you've come.
- A crown badge marks life birds and a laurel badge marks this year's new species (year birds) — treasure every "first" and every new encounter, year after year.
- Clean, elegant interface that works fully offline — capture the beauty of birds anytime, anywhere.
