Welcome to PlumePages, a simple birdwatching app for recording the birds you see, identifying bird species with AI, and collecting your own digital bird stickers. Whether you are new to birdwatching, curious about nature, or just love keeping a visual journal, PlumePages gives you an easy and delightful starting point. Identify Birds with AI See a bird but don’t know its name? Take a photo or import one from your album, and PlumePages will help identify the bird species and show useful bird information. PlumePages uses the Dongniao bird identification model, which reaches around 90% accuracy in common birdwatching scenarios. The bird database is also based on the Dongniao database, with relevant data used under its corresponding CC open license. From parks and neighborhoods to campuses, forests, wetlands, and travel spots, you can quickly record every bird encounter. Turn Birdwatching into Collecting Birdwatching is not only about identification. It is also about slowly adding new birds to your own collection. Every bird record becomes a digital bird sticker with a clean white border and soft shadow. Instead of leaving your sightings as ordinary phone photos, PlumePages turns them into scrapbook-style memories. Collect birds, unlock new species, and watch your personal bird scrapbook gradually fill up. Track Your Bird Collection on One Infinite Canvas PlumePages helps you see your birdwatching progress in one place. With the infinite zoomable canvas, you can zoom out to preview your overall collection progress, or zoom in to view each individual bird sticker and record. It works like a digital bird scrapbook and a personal bird collection map. Made for Beginners You don’t need to be a bird expert to start birdwatching. PlumePages is designed to be simple, friendly, and easy to recommend to friends who want to try birdwatching. Start with one bird, identify it, record it, and slowly build your own bird collection. PlumePages helps you discover the birds around you and turn every encounter into a collectible memory. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
