Birda - Bird Watching, Birding
authentic ratingBirda is loved as a social network for birders: a photo feed, comments, badges, challenges, and list-keeping, great for people who want to share rather than just tick boxes. Its one clear weak spot is that the AI photo identification works poorly, so people leave to double-check in Google or Merlin. It can also be sluggish and requires location to be on.
Store 4.70 versus textAvg 3.79, but the reviews are very lively and detailed: people write about importing eBird data, merging carrion and hooded crow into one species breaking their life list, slow photo uploads, challenges, and the social feed. The five-stars are meaningful too, with no sign of planting.
