New version 1.2.2 → 1.3.1

Two new ways to use BirdScout. Soundscapes Sleep, work, or read to birdsong. Choose a mix like Dawn Forest or Streamside and it keeps playing with the screen off, with controls on the Lock Screen and a sleep timer for when you want it to stop on its own. While it plays, BirdScout shows you which bird you are hearing right now, and you can tap the photo to read about that species. Photo ID (beta) Not every bird sings. Take a photo or choose one from your library, and BirdScout suggests what it is. Confirm the species and it joins your life list like any other sighting. Plus smaller fixes and polish throughout.

About

Turn every walk, hike, and backyard morning into a discovery. BirdScout listens to the birds around you and identifies them in seconds, powered by on-device AI that works even when you're off the grid. Just tap record. BirdScout analyzes the song or call, matches it against more than 10,000 species worldwide, and shows you exactly who's singing, complete with photos, range, and field notes. WHY BIRDERS LOVE BIRDSCOUT - Instant Sound ID: Identify bird songs and calls from 10,000+ species in real time with fast, accurate on-device recognition. - Works Offline: No signal in the field? No problem. Core identification runs right on your iPhone. - At a Glance Facts: Quickly learn about a species with summarized key facts like family, appearance, and habitat directly on their card. - Complex Chorus Breakdown: Heard multiple birds at once? BirdScout breaks them down with a per-bird summary and an interactive timeline so you can replay exactly when each species sang. - Soundscapes: Sleep, work, or read to birdsong. Pick a mix, set a sleep timer, and it keeps playing with the screen off. BirdScout shows you which bird you are hearing as it plays. - Photo ID (beta): Not every bird sings.
