About this app
Somewhere right now a rare bird turns up. Someone spots it, a point appears on the map, and for a few hours that place matters.
Until now those moments disappeared into notebooks, WhatsApp groups and chat histories. With fink they become visible.
fink is a modern tool for birdwatching: a live map of the bird world and your own species archive. Built on Helgoland, one of the most important migration sites in Europe.
fink is a subscription app. A Standard or Pro membership is required for the features below. New users get a 7-day free trial.
THE LIVING MAP
See in real time which birds are being reported around you. Log your own sighting outside, in seconds. Everyone else sees straight away where something is happening.
IDENTIFY BIRDS
Not sure what you just saw? Answer a few short questions about size, colour and behaviour, or upload a photo. FinkDetector suggests the most likely species, based on our own European bird database.
YOUR SPECIES ARCHIVE
Every sighting lands in your personal bird atlas: species, photo, location, date. Properly documented and easy to find again. No writing up in the evening, no spreadsheets.
THE BIRD WIKI
More than 900 European species with our own illustrations: field marks, habitat, diet, migration, eggs, and how common the species is where you are, month by month.
THE COMMUNITY
Follow other birders, confirm sightings near you, join guilds and talk in the feed and in chats. Birdwatching is better together.
PHOTO CONTESTS
Submit your best shots and vote on the finalists.
WHY FINK
Birding is popular, but the digital tools for it still feel like 2010. fink does not change the hobby, it makes what you already do easier and better. And many individual observations add up to a dataset that supports research and conservation.
By the way: in Halunder, the language of Helgoland, fink simply means bird.
No ads. We do not sell your data.
SUBSCRIPTION
Standard: 3.99 EUR per month or 34.99 EUR per year.
Pro: 6.99 EUR per month or 64.99 EUR per year, adding a 3D globe, your own guilds and contest jury access.
New users get a 7-day free trial. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage and cancel them in your Google Play subscription settings.
