About this app
How can computers learn to recognize birds from sounds? The BirdNET research project uses artificial intelligence and neural networks to train computers to identify more than 3,000 of the most common species worldwide. You can record a file using the microphone of your Android device and see if BirdNET correctly identifies the probable bird species present in your recording. Get to know the birds around you and help us to collect observations by submitting your recordings.
BirdNET is a joint project of the K. Lisa Yang Center for Conservation Bioacoustics at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, and Chemnitz University of Technology.

Great app for identifying birds, but there is one really annoying bug preventing it from being 5 stars. When selecting a range of the spectrum to play back or analyze, the audio doesn't line up, it's shifted a second or two after the selection and gets worse the further it is to the left. It usually takes multiple tries to get an accurate selection. This wasn't a problem a few years ago, though it could be because I had a different phone (Moto X4). Would also love the app to be open source.

I love this app! I only gave it 4 stars because there are a few things they could do to make it more user friendly; like being able to go back to listen to you're recording, or even better, being able to mark a spot while recording, so you can go back to it after you're done recording. As it is now, you have to stop your recording to analyze a section, and when a lot of birds are singing/calling, it often leads to missing some birds.

I'm into birdwatching, especially at home, but never know what type of bird I'm seeing/hearing. This app is the BOMB and SO easy to use! Upon hearing a bird call, just open the app and it will automatically record it. Stop recording after a few seconds, and it instantly lets you know what type of bird it is. Click on the birds name and it takes you to a page that explains everything about the bird, including more of their bird songs and calls that you can listen to. Love it!
