Good for experienced and beginner birder.

I've been a keen birder for very many years. This has proven to be an excellent app for my iPhone. It covers most British birds and has plenty of detail with decent images and sound files. Highly recommended!

A bad book on a digital platform - why bother?

Since the best, in my mind, birding app. Twitcher was discontinued I've been trying to find something at least it's equal. I still haven't. This eGuide kicks off with the blandest home page you've seen since the Spectrum was launched. Nowhere does it give any help at all in identifying birds. You've got to know what bird you're looking at before you get a picture. There's no Google maps location facility, no "sightings" list - it's boring, bland and bleak and, in making no use of digital functionality, is no better than a small reference book. Wish I hadn't bought it.

Best money I have ever spent

I have had this app for many years and it must be the best £6 odd I have ever spent. So useful in the field or anywhere. Pictures and recordings of songs/calls as well as all the information you would need to understand a bit more about the particular species.
