It’s ok but can only id the loudest sound. So if a frog is calling louder than the sound you want to id. It comes back frog
Can’t upload sound videos

I’m so frustrated with this app. It says there is a “free trial” but you can’t really do anything during the free trial to see if it’s worth it. I had a recorded video of a sound I heard in the woods and wanted to see what it was. It wouldn’t let me upload so I was like “well, I’ll just purchase a week to see if this app works and see if I can identify the sound.” So I paid. Then I try and upload video and it can’t find the video! Won’t let me upload it at all. You have to live record only apparently even though there is a spot that says “upload”. 🤦🏻♀️ Live recording is impossible when you are at a place that doesn’t have cell service and wifi is iffy (like in the mountains). App is not worth it and kinda expensive when you can’t do much.
Use at your own risk!

Tried this app, even paid for the week subscription. I needed to know what kind of animal sound was coming from a hole in the wall in the garage. I couldn’t use the sound identifier without paying, so I paid for it. The first time it said it was a Finch. I knew that was wrong so I tried again, same live sound and it said it was a Raven. Again I thought that was wrong so I tried again and it said it could not identify the sound. Right away I went to try to get a refund but it said I couldn’t because the app payment was pending. I tried again and Apple gave me a prorated refund. Turns out the sound was baby raccoons. Do not recommend this app to help with trying to identify an animal sound.

I was curious what a sound was coming from some bushes so I hastily downloaded the app and ran it. The app told me that it was a duck. It was definitely NOT a duck. Later that day I tried it again on a sound that I presumed was a squirrel alarming. The app told me that it was a Great Horned Owl. Again, I am confident that it wasn’t a GHO. At this point, I’m not confident that I will get an accurate identification. I’m sorry that I bought it.
Developer Response
Hi, thanks for taking the time to share your experience, and we're sorry the identifications weren't accurate. Sound identification can be challenging when recordings are short, distant, or include background noise, but we know that's not the experience you expected. We're continuously improving our AI models to increase accuracy. If you could contact us through the Contact Us section in the app and share those recordings, we'd be very grateful—they help us improve the app significantly. Thank you for your feedback, and we hope you'll give the app another try after future updates.
