What s that bird? Let Merlin unlock the mystery. As your birding coach, Merlin will ask you a few simple questions. Then almost like magic, Merlin presents a short list of likely matches tailored to ...
Best app for those of us who are new to bird watching                 Love this app
Very accurate and easy to use Great app                 Great app
We use this app often when sitting on our deck in the morning identifying all of the birds that come to our feeders So much fun and information                 Wonderfully informative
Ive found this to work wonderfully about 90 of the time which is pretty darn good              Works great most of the time
Almost always has the right bird as the top choice But even when it is farther down the list it easy to find This is a great app for the casual birder I just like to know what I am looking at it is not a hobby for me                 Easy to use eerily accurate
Youll love this                 Great app
We full time in an RV and travel all over the USA This app replaces the need to have multiple books to identify birds during our travels One thing missing is the ability for the app to keep a record for us of what birds we identified and where they were identified Maybe this will be added in a future upgrade                 Great App
Super easy to use and navigate as an amateur bird watcher In 5 minutes Im hooked                 Simply awesome
Love this app                 Awesome app
Pretty good for identification of birds except that location services running in the background is a battery drain Have to choose location each time I use the app              Fun
I have not had a single glitch in this app However where I live we dont get different types of sparrows just House Sparrows so if we saw a Vesper Sparrow or something we wouldnt know the difference Add these to your app and also a few more warblers I woke up one morning and walked to my back porch and saw a migrating Magillivarys Warbler Without Merlin it took forever to find So please add a few more birds and maybe some sort of simulator mini game              Great App
The app performs even better than I had hoped My daughter and enjoy birds very much but we dont know much about birds This app helps us to identify birds quickly and accurately Other apps like this are more difficult to navigate and often dont come to a solid answer Once the app has identified the bird we are watching it records the sighting in a database which help to track migration patterns                 THE BEST
I am using iPad IOS 9 and went through the first 5 steps used for ID when app froze Let the community know when this works on latest ios     App hung on first use
This has helped me so much to identify local birds                 Great app
I especially like this app because of the capability of hearing what the bird sounds like                 Very cool App
I love this app and cant say enough about it If you love birds like I do its a must have                 Amazing App
Easy fast accurate                 Fabulous
I own a number of much more detailed apps but when I need to quickly and easily ID a bird I always go here first                 So fast and simple
Easy to use and very accurate                 Merlin app
This is great for front porch identification I dont have to lug my big bird books outside                 Very handy
Every bird I have identified has been correct This app is so much better than a bird book                 Spot on
Great app for identifying by size and color if you dont know the bird Would like to have a name search option to make it quicker to confirm a bird within a family              Search option
Excellent app for identifying birds especially the unexpected visitors to my back yard If you love watching birds you will love this app                 Best Bird App
Love it User friendly and allows for the uncommon sighting which makes the amateur feel like a pro              A Handy Tool
This app is fun easy to use and educational                 Great
I tried the two most popular bird apps and got bogged down in silly detail and needless interface This is simply the best                 Best bird app of them all
I volunteer for a zoo and this app is perfect for information                 Wonderful
I was out for a hike in Norther Michigan and a pileated woodpecker flew across my path Just for kicks I played the various sample audio calls from the app The bird came back and started following me I played the calls occasionally and the bird followed me for the better part of a mile I started to feel bad for the bird so I stopped but wow how cool was that                 Probably not what its designed for but
Its always been able to ID the birds Im looking at                 Great app
Im living in an area new to me riparian canyon in the Desert Southwest and this app is fabulous at helping me identify my new neighbors I like being able to use the calls and songs to ensure you have the correct identification My only wish would be to have the option to save my finds to a life list                 Great app
I love this app but I would love it even more if you could change your Location Services options to include while using the app instead of just always or never                 Location services
Love this App It works and has helped me correctly ID many birds in our area                 Great App
This app is really easy to use and has helped me quickly identify many birds around my home Its well with the download                 Easy and Accurate
Identifies the bird I saw with very little information every time                 So useful
Amazing fast and full of interesting info Thank you Cornell for this super app                 Harvey Birdman loves it
I love this app Ive been a novice birder for s long time not having the needed tools to advance my hobby With this app I have been able to identify new birds hear their songcall learn interesting information about each I just wish the app could somehow keep track of the new birds I have identified for my later review              Instructional
This is perfect              Awesome app
Useful for any skill level when stumped                 Easy to Use
This app is great We spend summer and fall living in a migratory flyway Now its easier to identify our regulars and visitors My daughter lives by a lake and uses her Merlin frequently And the calls drive our cat crazy                 Very useful
Can only say this AWESOME                 Merlin Bird ID
My granddaughter and I tried this App today and had the most fun identifying the birds that come to our feeders here on Cape Cod Our favorite was the picture of the Ruby Throated Hummingbird that helped us to see the details We highly recommend this App                 Awesome App
Really really awesome                 Awesome
Easy to use A lot of fun                 Great app for the novice
Easy to use Good results Occasional issues with picking up my location but not an issue if youve picked that location before I am not an avid bird watcher but do find it entertaining to find out what type of bird Ive taken a picture of while hiking This app makes quick work of identification and gives enough photos to be confident in identification              Awesome
I have used Merlin for a couple of years It allows for fast identification with very few false leads I love it                 Wonderful
Incredibly accurate and fun to usel would recommend this program to anyone who enjoys identifying birds                 Merlin
IDing birds is easy bc this ap starts you with choosing size and color of the bird then goes from there Provides great color pictures audio of the birds songscalls detailed info about each bird map of breedingwintering areas a list where you can browse all birds in alphabetical orderand all handy in your phone instead of hauling around a book LOVE it                 Really Great Ap to Start Birding
The app is amazing It is so simple to identify the bids you see So much more effective than a printed guide or even than trying to Google what you are seeing I only wish that it had a personal bird list to record what you have observed Having to use another app to do this is the only thing taking away from an otherwise incredible app              Great App just needs personal list
I have wanted a bird book to discover the birds in my backyard This app did the trick and what I love is the bird sounds that come with each bird I played the black capped chickadee songs and had one fly above me to check me out Played he cardinals and had 4 in the tree lines around me checking it out Such a great app for the beginning bird watcher                 Thank you thank you
If you have even a passing interest inboard this app is great                 Love this app
