## What is YardWild?

YardWild turns your Ring outdoor cameras into a wildlife observation system. Every motion event is automatically identified — deer, raccoons, foxes, squirrels, possums, and more.

- AI-powered species identification with confidence scores
- Per-camera daily timeline of who came by, with snapshot
- Species library with biodiversity score and badges
- Conservation status from IUCN Red List + Wikipedia summaries
- Optional citizen-science contribution to iNaturalist (anonymized)
- Push notifications for notable species (with quiet hours + vacation mode)

Privacy by design:
- We never identify humans or birds.
- Frames containing only people are discarded by a pre-filter before any AI analysis.
- No location tracking. No advertising. No data sales.
- Account deletion completes within 24 hours.

Requires a Ring outdoor camera and a Ring account.


## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.0.3 — 2026-08-18

Nuovi screenshot nell'App Store — nessuna modifica all'app.

Same app as 1.0.2: passwordless sign-in, real YardWild artwork throughout, and the Ring account-link return now signs you straight in.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-08-17

Refreshed look and a smoother way in.

• Signing in is now front and centre and stays passwordless: enter your email and we send a 6-digit code.
• The app now uses the real YardWild artwork and a proper icon set throughout, including the tab bar.
• Returning from linking your Ring account now signs you straight in instead of dropping you back at the start.
• The species figure on your timeline now matches your Species tab and the web dashboard.
• Exporting your sightings is faster and no longer opens an external browser.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-07-04

A fresh new look for YardWild — a cleaner, field-guide design across your Timeline, species collection, sighting details, and settings. Plus performance and stability improvements.

### 1.0 — 2026-07-01

No release notes.
