some_random_nerd's Review of Ibird Plus Guide To Birds
Reviewed on 9/19/19 2:14 PMThis is a great app. Doesn't completely replace a paper field guide, but I often don't bother bringing a paper guide on short trips now that I have this. And the songs are a huge bonus that paper books don't have, so this makes for an indispensable backup in that regard. The app keeps getting better, and the little tweaks in the pro upgrade are nice too. It still has a few little areas that need improvement though before it'll truly be a top notch app, but for better or for worse it's still the best available. It needs more illustrations of juvenile and alternate plumages (for example no juvenile or fall plumage illustrations for black-throated green warbler), although the photos fill in some of those gaps (but not all, like fall plumage black-throated green warbler). And there are some minor bugs in the illustrations (such as not showing the white outer tail feathers on the black-throated green warbler). And the search function has some gaping holes that make it hard to use effectively, especially in the habitat search option. For example, when searching for California mountain habitat, it returns the Dark-Rumped Petrel, a pelagic species, but doesn't show the Mountain Chickadee or the Clark's Nutcracker, two of the most common species in the sierras (this is unfortunately still true as of August 2017). Also, searching by smaller geographic areas or climate zones rather than states would be really helpful, such as a 'northern California' or a 'rocky mountains' category. These search tools have the potential to be fantastic once implemented better. For now, searching for a mountain bird is still faster in my paper book than in this app, which I'm hoping will soon change.
Busy biology teacher's Review of Ibird Plus Guide To Birds
Reviewed on 9/19/19 2:14 PMI've used this app for at least 3 years... presently I am on vacation watching new birds, and low and behold each time I look one up- it can only be found where exactly where I am!! Plus the behavior descriptions and other details confirm my identification! Love this!!
karl1234567891011's Review of Ibird Plus Guide To Birds
Reviewed on 9/19/19 2:14 PMI’ve used this app for years and have liked it. Had lots of fun making bird calls with the kids. I haven’t used it in 6 months or so but was not happy to see some Of the new changes. Since when have I had to pay extra to use an app that I paid full price for already? Adding in app purchases after the fact to view birds around me is just lame and rather sneaky.

Reviewed on 9/19/19 2:14 PMSetting in court yard & back yard placing birds sounds. Brings them in closer! Fun to watch them try to figure out where the call/sound is coming from. Great app for identifying birds, as well!

Reviewed on 9/19/19 2:14 PMVery useful - i use it for identifying bird songs all the time. Indexing and search could be improved, but excellent nonetheless.

Sax One's Review of Ibird Plus Guide To Birds
Reviewed on 9/19/19 2:14 PMIt has been great to be able to identify the birds in our yard. The bird songs have been very helpful. I finally found the place where you can identify by color and that would nail it. I have thoroughly enjoyed it.
RandRR1's Review of Ibird Plus Guide To Birds
Reviewed on 9/19/19 2:14 PMI paid for the Plus and given that we are surrounded by birds, two great road runners have made their home here with us, most disappointed. Merlin ID is superior to this app and you can upload a photo of a bird you want to ID.
