Chirp! Bird Songs & Calls of Britain and Europe. The original app for identifying and learning bird songs, and still the best! This update keeps the app running smoothly and fixes a bug with the display of high quiz scores on the iPhone X.

Chirp! Bird Songs & Calls of Britain and Europe. The original app for identifying and learning bird songs, and still the best! This update keeps the app running smoothly, and includes 20 new bird sounds such as the 'squeaky-gate' call of the young Long-eared Owl and the alarm call of the Greenfinch.

Bug fix for custom quiz.

The app has been updated with a number of general improvements and small bug fixes, plus larger bird photos on the iPhone. Thank you to everyone who has left a review - it is very much appreciated! These reviews will unfortunately disappear now that we have released an update, so if you could update your review, that would be great!

This update includes three new birds: the Dartford Warbler, the Yellow Wagtail and the Grey Wagtail, as well as general improvements.

Bug fix! The previous version had a bug in the custom level of the quiz on the iPad, which could lead to a blank screen. This has now been fixed.

Big changes on the iPhone - the app now rotates, and works in portrait as well as landscape! We’ve been wanting to do this for ages, but it was a lot of work! We ‘ve also added a new feature, a human translation of the song or call, rather like ‘Google Translate’ for birds. Tap the small speech bubble above the image of the bird to see this. And of course we’ve added some new bird sounds. The new birds are: Goosander, Night Heron, Purple Heron, Water Rail, Whooper Swan, Wood Sandpiper, Savi's Warbler, Bearded Tit, Siberian Jay, and Manx Shearwater.

This update adds the great sounds of the Rock Ptarmigan, Willow Ptarmigan, Chough, Alpine Chough, Greylag Goose and Canada Goose, and also a new feature - a voiceover in the slideshow section, announcing the name of the bird at the end of each sound (iOS 7 only). This new feature is great for testing yourself informally, or for competing with the family – who can say the name of the bird first?

This update adds 17 new sounds, chosen from your suggestions! The new birds include: Common Gull Common Sandpiper Coot Dotterel Great Grey Owl Grey Heron Kittiwake Little Ringed Plover Ringed Plover Sardinian Warbler Snowy Owl White-tailed Eagle

17 great new bird songs and calls! Let us know if there are other sounds you think should be included and we'll do our best to fit them in. New sounds: Curlew (song flight) Great Crested Grebe Great Spotted Cuckoo Grey-headed Woodpecker Hen Harrier Little Grebe Marsh Harrier Middle Spotted Woodpecker Peregrine Pygmy Owl male song Pygmy Owl song Shoveler Spotted Flycatcher Spotted Nutcracker Woodlark song Woodlark call Wryneck

Full screen support for iPhone 5 and other improvements. The larger screen of the iPhone 5 allows a larger photo of each bird and larger text for the song description.
