  • Buggy / not really functional

    I have an up to date iOS install on an iPhone 13. The app has gray icons that haven’t loaded (variable but the back arrow is always buggy). Most of the time screen presses don’t register and the buttons don’t map to the screen correctly. Sounds don’t play. Disappointed.
  • Where did the sound go?

    Great app, except the sounds don’t work! Would be a cool feature if I could figure that out.
  • This is the one to get

    This is THE field guide for Ecuador! It is continuously updated with new distribution data, has the best descriptions, and the authors have been Ecuador birding gurus for almost 50 years. This is the one to buy!

    Nice start, but disappointed with the illustrations. Great work with the descriptions and maps. In the future it would be great to link to your BirdsEye app like you do with daily bird.
