A closer look. A better listen.

Identify birds by sound or photo, then keep your discoveries in a private field journal.

BirdEar processes recognition on your phone. Download the models once, then compare suggested species while you're offline. Your recognition photos and recordings stay on your device.

Bring your observations together

• Record a bird call or select a bird photo.
• Compare ranked species suggestions and confirm what you observed.
• Save sightings, notes, photos and recordings in your local journal.
• Use the app without an account, ads or in-app purchases.

The initial model download is approximately 521 MB. Reference media requires an internet connection. Species suggestions can be wrong; scores are model rankings, not guaranteed accuracy.

The camera preview uses Google ML Kit, which sends diagnostic and usage metrics to Google. See the BirdEar privacy policy for details.
