Great App for atlassing!

The NatureCounts App is well designed and makes submitting data to the Ontario Breeding Bird Atlas (2021-2015) so much easier and faster. If you tried it in 2021 and ran into issues, try it again because it has improved so much it’s a new App! I really love the integrated caution alerts that pops up to remind us about breeding safe dates, and pop up notes regarding particular breeding evidence for certain bird species. I also love that we can edit our track right on the App and see the atlas square border clearly. If you’re contributing to a Breeding Bird Atlas, I highly recommend using this tool!

Great improvements

App is running so much better with the new updates. Going through the checklist is much easier and I’m no longer encountering issues that were there in the past. It has made contributing to atlas’s much easier.

I’ve been trying to use this app for uploading Ontario Atlas data but it’s always tells me I’m off line... which I’m not.
