This app simplifies the often challenging task of bird song recognition.

Furthermore, you can categorize them based on their vocal style – whether hooting, cooing, or emitting high-pitched songs. Additionally, sorting options by name, habitat, or bird grouping are readily available.

Following a listening session, challenge your memory with an interactive quiz. The faster you respond, the higher your score multiplier will be, propelling you onto the distinguished high score leaderboard. Seasoned bird watchers will appreciate the bespoke quiz function for refining their knowledge of similar-sounding tunes.

The slideshow feature offers a serene refuge or a competitive opportunity by enabling users to name the bird before the voiceover. This friendly contest can add an extra layer of enjoyment during family playtime.
