Bird Call Identifier

Hear a bird. Know it. Bird Call Identifier: One Tap helps you identify nearby birds from live microphone audio or an existing recording. Identification runs privately on your device, so the core experience can work without a live connection after setup. IDENTIFY • Listen live with one tap or import a recording. • See the common name, scientific name and match strength. • View bird photography and quick species stats when available. REMEMBER • Every successful identification is saved automatically in My Birds. • Play retained recordings and reference calls when available. • Optionally add approximate coordinates. • Sign in to sync eligible identifications and retained evidence audio across your devices. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Bird-call audio is analyzed on your device. It is not uploaded to identify a bird. If you enable Save Audio Recordings and sign in, an evidence copy can be stored privately for sync and playback. TRY IT FIRST Your first three successful identifications are included. Premium unlocks unlimited bird-call identification. Monthly and annual auto-renewing plans may be available; the exact local price, billing period and any eligible introductory offer are shown before purchase. Manage or cancel through your App Store account. Privacy Policy: https://limevibelimited.com/bciot-privacy.php Terms of Use: https://limevibelimited.com/bciot-terms.php
