The app looks great and very easy to use. This also means it lacks some features like, for example, comparing two species side-by-side. The app can download Wikipedia pages of all species which can serve as a helpful bit of information when outside, but sadly it cannot do the same for, say, 2-3 xeno-canto recordings for all species. Instead, you need to go through all species and manually download some yourself. Probably the app's biggest limitation is that the list of 436 birds is not comprehensive for Europe. The app doesn't claim to be comprehensive in any case. also, not every species has pictures included; for example images of the wall creeper or cirl bunting are missing, which aren't necessarily rare or localised birds. the app recieves updates with more picture over time so there's a chance this will improve.
Great app, smooth and awesome info. One great flaw however is that there is no search function integrated, please add one and get four stars. Add offline mode and a "rec & search" function for searching with the bird song and get five stars.
Veldig fin app, eneste fugle appen med navn på mange språk. Men offline er appen ikke helt topp. Der er mange andre apper bedre.
En naturupplevelse i sig själv, likaväl som en uppslagsbok på fältet.
