Ratings and Reviews
Great App
This App is perfect for my recording wildlife!
YIKES fed up with trying
So, I can log on on my iPad but I wanted to put the app on my phone in order to record sightings whilst out and about. Lots of Yikes msgs (really annoying) telling me there was an error but not what it is. Given up and deleted, shame as out and about in North Cornwall every day.

Any issues, please drop us an email at orks@cornwallwildlifetrust.org.uk and we'd be happy to help troubleshoot your issues.
Can’t generate a new password.
Forgotten my password but trying to get a new one just generates an error. Therefore I can’t use the app. In this day and age it should have the option of finger or face recognition.
An important app please get it sorted.
