I recently purchased it for iphone and I love it. As someone who has not
been good at picking calls it is great, although the search function needs
improving, it can be surprisingly difficult at times to get to the bird you
want through the alphabetic search. The listing part is also very basic,
it can't email a day list, the clunkiness of the search makes it a bit
impractical (although the tick list is quite good) and it doesn't use the
phones GPS at all for location which is a bit of an obvious flaw - so for
the moment I still need a separate app to do this. Still, money well spent,
the illustrations are good and I don't feel the need to lug a field guide
around as often. I do like the compare function - being able to see a Grey
Fantail and Mangrove Grey Fantail side by side is great
Best though -having the calls of 650 Australian birds always in your
pocket is pretty cool (and can break the boredom of tedious meetings
occasionally)!.
