A gamified bird sound ID app. Been working on it since May of 2024. While the core functionality of “catching” birds has been live for awhile, I’ve been working on a learning module built into the app. I’m experimenting with ways to teach new birders / nature curious people how to “tune” into different bird sounds. As a birder one of my favorite things to hone has been trying to differentiate songs and calls in the field and I want to capture that experience in the app.

Love any and all feedback!

This is sick! I'm not a big birder but maybe this is the push I need to get into it lol. App seems super polished. Well done.
