I hope someone works on this project again! ### 2/5 — Playlist weg 🙁 *2026-01-31* Eigentlich liebte ich Flügelklang. Warum funktioniert die Playlist nicht mehr? ### 4/5 — Tolles Add-On *2026-01-29* Super Erweiterung zum Brettspiel, aber wir sind etwas traurig, dass man keine Playlist mehr aus den Sounds der gescannten Vögel erstellen kann, die man dann im Loop während des Spiels hören kann. Das war immer eine tolle Untermalung und hatte einen guten Lerneffekt. ### 2/5 — Playlist doesn’t work *2025-12-20, version 2.4.1* The bird sounds play when scanned, but the plus button shown in the screenshots and instructions doesn’t show up. ### 4/5 — Needs another feature or two *2024-09-09, version 2.4.1* I love the app, but I want it to have a shuffle button for the playlist, and/or I want an option to have the birdsongs play overlapping each other randomly interspersed for immersion. Still great ### 5/5 — The perfect companion to Wingspan *2024-07-18, version 2.4.1* We recently purchased Wingspan and during our games, my husband kept trying to look up the bird sounds, with little success. Played with the app last night for the first time, scanning in each new bird we played and it was so much fun! Really added to the ambiance. The roadrunner made us both laugh! 100% recommend for bird fans. ### 5/5 — Mind = blown *2024-07-07, version 2.4.1* Awesome ### 4/5 — Nice but not always working *2024-06-23, version 2.4.1* Needs more updates 🙂 ### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing!! *2024-05-15, version 2.4.1* This geeks out my brain so hard core and I love this app so much. Thank you fellow bird lovers!! ### 5/5 — Still awesome *2024-02-19, version 2.4.1* Had it for years and we just got the Oceana expansion and we were happy to find it works for those too! Thank you so much! ### 5/5 — Delightful masterpiece *2024-01-13, version 2.4.1* I think the title says it all. I love this. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work! 🥺 *2026-07-28, version 2.4.1* We used to LOVE this app along with the Wingspan board game. But lately it just doesn’t work. Some cards don’t register at all when scanned, and there is no way to add them to a playlist now… SO SAD! 😞😭 We really miss it! ### 1/5 — Doesn’t even focus the camera *2026-07-06, version 2.4.1* Doesn’t work at all. Even on my wife’s phone, same thing. ### 1/5 — Cannot Add Birds to Playlist *2025-12-30, version 2.4.1* Title says it all. When I scan a bird, it plays the sound but nothing else shows up on the screen. No bird name, no '+' sign, nothing. Must be a bug. ### 1/5 — Great idea *2025-06-24, version 2.4.1* Sounded like a fun idea - downloaded the app, never heard. Bird noise no matter how many cards I scanned. ### 1/5 — Sound doesn’t work *2025-06-10, version 2.4.1* Me and 3 other people downloaded the app while playing wingspan and none of us were able to get a bird song out of every card we scanned. The app was able to get the bird recognized but no sound played. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work in German *2025-06-01* I tried everything. I followed all the suggestions of the developer, closing all apps and to choose the language of the game. **Developer response:** The service providing the bird songs was temporarily not available. This is fixed now. Feel free to try again :) ### 1/5 — No longer working *2024-02-25, version 2.4.1* Used to love this app but now it does t work’ ### 1/5 — Non funziona più *2023-12-15, version 2.4.1* Non funziona ### 1/5 — Crashes on the app start *2023-09-24, version 2.4.1* Sadly, the app crashes immediately when started. I tried reinstalling, and it didn’t help. ### 1/5 — Oops no connection *2023-09-18, version 2.3* Never works all I get is oops no connection ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Obsessed *2026-08-03, version 2.4.1* My friends and I play this game lol the time. We just love it. We love birds now too. ☺️ ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-03-10, version 2.4.1* Well wing span is educational you can learn a lot about bird species. Apart from threatened species status, what is the other piece of missing info? Bird calls. Not any more enter. Wing song. Hold the phone over the bird card and Viola your phone faithfully plays the bird song for the card! Gently marvellous stuff. ### 5/5 — Features removed? *2026-02-11, version 2.4.1* Why did you remove the feature that lets you make a song collage of your birds? And view recently played birds? The App Store screenshots are no longer accurate ### 5/5 — Great From the Beginning! *2025-09-11, version 2.4.1* I’ve had this app for maybe two years, and I love it! It is so fun to be able to listen to your birds when playing the game and not have to search the name of the bird on a search engine each time. A great idea to scan the cards for the sound! ### 5/5 — Now I have a chance to win *2025-08-10, version 2.4.1* An elegant and thoughtful way to break the concentration of fellow players so I have a chance to win. Enjoy the coffee but I know your not getting it at Starbucks for those prices! Big question: When is Wyrmsong coming out? ### 5/5 — Love this game, this app makes it even more fantastic *2025-03-30, version 2.4.1* We have learned so much about birds from playing Wingspan and I absolutely love playing the birdsongs while playing as well. What an incredible idea. ### 5/5 — Incredible *2025-01-03, version 2.4.1* What an amazing undertaking this app is. This adds so much to the wingspan board game. ### 5/5 — So cool *2024-12-16, version 2.4.1* Everyone needs it ### 5/5 — I came for the birdsong. I stayed for the Greater Roadrunner. *2024-07-23, version 2.4.1* Well played sir. 10/10. Fantastic app, really enhances and meshes with the spirit of the game. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2024-07-21* This App is such a fun companion to the game Flügelschlag! I can’t believe it was free! It is so well made, it never glitches, just a joy!!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
