Just returned from the Birders' cohort? Now, arrange your photos by species, with PlumageSort, and present your work to your consort. Point PlumageSort at a folder of photographs. It identifies the birds and files them into folders named for the species — on your own Mac, with no upload, no account and no network connection. WHAT IT DOES • Sorts a folder of photographs into folders named by species • 3,751 species, 1,092 of them recorded in the Indian subcontinent • Keeps your originals by default, or moves them to the Trash once sorted • Optionally renames files by species, or files them into date subfolders • Find Species: name the birds you are looking for and it pulls just those out WHAT IT DECLINES TO DO It does not guess. Anything it is not confident about goes to _Uncertain rather than into a species folder you would otherwise have to check by hand. Measured on 400 photographs of 20 species the model has never seen, the Confirmed setting keeps 92% of them out of your species folders. You decide how sure it has to be before it files a bird. Confirmed takes only what it is certain of. Most likely takes its strong calls too. Probable casts the widest net. Each one tells you what it costs, measured rather than asserted. TELL IT WHERE YOU WERE SHOOTING Name the region and it stops offering you birds from other continents. A photograph taken in Kerala is not judged against North American warblers. ENTIRELY ON YOUR MAC No upload, no account, no network connection, no telemetry. Your photographs never leave the machine. The model is bundled with the app and runs on the Neural Engine. FREE TO TRY Your first 10 species are free — a long burst of one bird spends one of the ten, not one per frame, because the work is the species you photographed, not the shutter you held down. No card and no account to find out whether it knows your birds. WHAT IT COSTS Birder — ₹2,000 (US$19.99) every 2 months. An auto-renewing subscription, for unlimited photographs as long as it runs. Prices in other regions are Apple's local equivalents, and the exact figure is shown before you buy. Or buy photographs outright, with no subscription and nothing to cancel: 500 photographs for ₹500 (US$4.99), or 2,000 for ₹1,200 (US$11.99). Both are one-time purchases and never expire. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for the renewal within 24 hours before that period ends. You can manage or cancel it at any time in your App Store account settings.

  • This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

A new main screen • Your settings at a glance: where you photograph, bursts and your plan sit as chips in the header, one click to change. • A backdrop of real birds: 92 photographs from across India, every one with its own two-line poem, where it was taken and, when it's threatened, its IUCN status. • Sift: rest on the feather to hold a photograph; slide right to leaf through them faster. • Draw a ring around the circle at the top right and a daytime forest fills the room: birdsong, a passing breeze, peafowl calling far off. Draw another to hush it. • Glass panels that step back when you look at the photograph. • While a sort runs, each new species takes the stage. Afterwards, a field report shows one photograph per species found.
