Merlin Bird ID by Cornell Lab App Reviews

Love how the app gives possibilities plus bird songs.

This app is awesome, I work outside and use it often

I was able to identify birds so quickly & easily! Great free app!! I am so happy to have found it. Thank you :)

This app has been bang on every time Ive used it.

I like this app, it does a good job identifying birds. But why is it storing 450 MB of backup data in iCloud? Its a big waste of space.

The app uses my location and the date, asks some simple questions, and presents a list of candidate birds. I am learning so much and having so much fun.

Love this app for birding at anytime. There are good quality photos and the steps to bird identification usually find the bird I had spotted.

Brilliant app. The sound feature lets you confirm the bird is yours. Love it!!!

This a very usual app! However I wish you could keep track of identified birds. Please add a feature where you can save into lists

Wonderful to learn about the world of ornithology :) its great to listen to the sounds.

I absolutely love this app. Makes Identifying birds easy.

Love it. I use it regularly with great success.

Quick ID of many species. Hasnt disappointed yet

This is such a well-designed and executes app. Easy and fun to use! Only thing that could make it better is if it was more interactive (eg. a map with pins showing whats been sites in your area, keep track of the birds Ive seen). I would pay for a version with these things. Awesome app!

Great app, by Color combinations and feeding location it offers possible species. Has helped me identify for example that the female finch is a dull yellow and olive in the summer while her mate is bright yellow and black. I thought it was 2 different types of finch. A fun thing to do is use the different bird calls contained in the software. In the evening the birds will come to our location. (Tricking them yes but fun)

Very user-friendly, very accurate and overall amazing!

Love it!

Well done app. Handy and informative. Probably best in class. The major problem is that it only covers birds from North America. So sad while knowing that eBirds database have a much bigger coverage. I hope authors will extend its capabilities. I would also ask to make it a eBird client software so I could upload photos and sounds right from my iPhone or Google Drive to database.

App works very well

Love the app! Has helped us to figure out what birds we have in the yard. But I would love to be able to put in the name of a bird we have seen in the yard, because it doesnt come up with id bird description steps.
