Ratings and reviews

This app is as essential to me as my binoculars. It is beautifully put together and so easy to navigate around. The bird plates are beautifully designed and the "top tips" on the plates and sound clips are so, so useful. The new filter by location function is also brilliant and helps me create "target lists" for birding trips. Considering the effort to develop and maintain this app, R79.99/m is a very fair price. Worth far more to me than a R99.99/m Amazon Prime subscription. I love this app.

Best app by far. I've used a lot of bird apps over the last few years (paid and free apps), but I stick to this one. It's easy to use and the identification description in the illustrations are very helpful. Perfect for beginners and advanced users. You can inport your birdlasser info to the app. I love this app.

I just started birding and have used this app for about 3 months now. I find this app super helpfull, from the illustrations and photos to the sounds! The app makes identification extremely easy and fun.
