An editorial reading of the saved reviews
People praise it for dual identification, by photo and by sound, and for picking a bird's call out of background noise. It breaks on geography and accuracy: it suggests species not from your region, down to a parrot and a bald eagle where they do not exist, and the camera zoom cannot reach a bird at the feeder. Plus a murky auto-renewing subscription after the week-long trial.

1 excerpt from the breakdown. These are individual cases, not a verdict on all users.
According to this app we have bald eagles, Japanese grosbeaks and eastern meadowlarks in the central western coast of Mexico. LOL. We definitely do not.
