Bird guide and field journal

Know the bird. Keep the moment.

Point the camera, pick a photo or let the bird sing. Birdy suggests the species right on your phone, and you save the sighting in your own field journal.

How it works

Three ways to catch it.

The same three ways in as in the app. Birdy always shows how sure it is, and you decide what gets saved.

  • Live with the camera

    Point at the bird. Birdy looks several times a second and shows the species it sees.

  • From a photo

    Pick a picture from your gallery, crop around the bird and let Birdy take a look.

  • Listen to the song Free

    Record the song and Birdy suggests the species. Sound ID is free for everyone.

The field journal

Every sighting gets its own page.

Save the match with the date, a note of your own and the place if you like. New species get an embossed stamp, and every week your sightings come together in a spread of their own.

Questions

Before you download.

Does Birdy work without a signal?

Yes. Identification with the camera, photos and sound runs on your phone, and the guide and journal are always there. Only the map tiles in the Premium map need a connection.

Do I need an account?

No. Open the app and start. Your journal lives on your phone.

How sure is the identification?

Good enough to learn from, and honest when it is unsure. Every match shows how sure Birdy is, and you always confirm before anything is saved.

What does Birdy cost?

Birdy is free to download and use. Premium is an optional upgrade with the map, PDF export, season statistics and extra badges. You see the price in the app.

Is Birdy available for iPhone?

The iPhone app is on its way. The Android app is available now, and the App Store link will appear here when the iPhone version is out.

Birdy for Android, soon on iPhone
