BirdingApp. app for iPhone and iPad

BirdingApp is the perfect app for connecting with other birders and keeping your birding life organized. Whether youre looking for a local guide, want to plan your daily birding routes and special trips, or simply want to check what other birders are seeing, weve built tools to help you out!

-Create a Profile: Introduce yourself, link your eBird stats, and discover friends to follow and connect with. Also mark patches youre familiar with birding and regions youre interested in visiting. Our privacy settings allow control over who can see your details.

-Convos and Chats: Enjoy familiar chat app functionality with a range of features, like support for location pins, photos and emoji reactions. We automatically detect and link eBird checklists and Macaulay Library references.

-Nearby Birder Chat: A chat room where everyone is a member, but only messages sent within a certain radius of your location are visible. Stay informed about recent birding conditions, sightings, and hotspot details, and connect with local birders wherever you are! No need to fret about how to join the local birding group and what app they might be using.

-Notifications for Rare Birds from eBird: Never miss out on a nearby Slaty-backed Gull again! Simply enable RBA (Rare Bird Alert) notifications in settings, and receive push notifications whenever a new rarity appears on the eBird RBA page.

-Rare Bird Chats: Clicking on an RBA in your activity feed will transport you to a view of the Nearby Birder Chat focused on a radius around the rare birds location. Find out if the bird is still being seen and discuss strategies for relocating it before making the trip!

-Routes, Itineraries, and Trips: Create and share birding routes, with the app displaying rarities from eBird near your chosen route! Utilize the itineraries feature to design routes and schedule multiple trips, while keeping track of all your planned adventures on a convenient calendar. Dont forget to invite your friends to join you!

-Trip Chats: Once you book a birding trip, our app automatically adds you to a dedicated trip chat. This feature is perfect for discussing trip details, staying connected with fellow birders, and sharing corrections on your eBird lists afterward.

Upcoming features include the ability to pay for tours in the app and for more casual trips, the ability to split the gas and other costs with friends.
