Questions
4Is the Birdfact app free?
Yes, to download and to use. Identifying birds, your garden list and every species guide are free. Birdfact Unlimited removes the limit on identifications.
How does it identify a bird?
From a photo it finds the bird, reads the marks that separate species and checks the answer against the bird it is usually mistaken for. From a recording it listens for songs and calls. It tells you how sure it is, in words.
Is it on Android?
Not yet. It is on iPhone first. Leave your email below and we’ll tell you when it’s on Android.
Is my Birdfact account the same in the app?
Yes. Sign in with the same account and your birds are in both places.
