The Audubon Bird Guide is a free and complete field guide to over 800 species of North American birds, right in your pocket. Built for all experience levels, it will help you identify the birds around you, keep track of the birds you've seen, and get outside to find new birds near you.
With over 2 million downloads to date, it is one of the best and most trusted field guides for North American birds.
KEY FEATURES:
ALL-NEW: BIRD ID It's now easier than ever to identify a bird you just saw. Enter all you were able to observe—what color was it? How big? What did its tail look like?—and Bird ID will narrow down a list of possible matches for your location and date in real time.
LEARN ABOUT THE BIRDS YOU LOVE Our field guide features over 3,000 photos, over eight hours of audio clips of songs and calls, multi-season range maps, and in-depth text by leading North American bird expert Kenn Kaufman.
KEEP TRACK OF ALL THE BIRDS YOU SEE With our completely redesigned Sightings feature, you can keep a record of every bird you encounter, whether you're hiking, sitting on the porch, or simply catching a glimpse of birds out the window. We'll even keep an updated life list for you.

I love this app. The bird calls have allowed me to get so many great pictures of birds
★★★★☆Brett Taylor· May 17, 2026
The app has dramatically improved in the last year. The UI is much more compliant and adding sightings is as easy as it used to be. However, I still do not get any actual alerts for my, well, alert list; I have to open the app and go to my list and see if any sightings of my desired birds have been reported. Given all the trouble I have had with this app in the last couple of years, this is a relatively small gripe that I can live with. Much better, Audubon! Keep up the good work!

My husband and I love this app!! We tag team using Audubon and Merlin to identify by sight and sound. Audubon works best for visual ID and Merlin for song identification. Happy birding!!!
★☆☆☆☆Madison Walker· Jan 19, 2026
My app just updated and how is it always more of a piece of garbage than it was before. With every update it gets worse. Do you want everyone to use Merlin? You can't backlog bird sightings because the app won't let you change the date. Every time you scroll, it automatically scrolls back to the current date. Sightings hotspot list is showing places nowhere near where my search criteria is asking. I am searching for Pensacola, and it is giving me locations all over south Florida.

I used this app a number of years ago and loved it. Decided to download it once more but, oh my! What a fall from glory! The bird identification was once a waterfall approach where you'd logically step through size THEN colour etc... but am I losing my mind or does it only allow identification by size OR color OR whatever? That's ridiculous!!! Imagine talking to a fellow birder. They ask you to describe the sighting, so you say: "It was this big." Then: "...and...?" You:
★☆☆☆☆Corvus· May 31, 2025
Another great and functional birding app rolling out updates full of bugs during breeding/at lasing season. And still calls turkeys "rather stupid creatures" ffs... from a bird org despite years of complaints! ID search no longer works. Broken location. Searching species by name reverts back to all species in the entire state or country after all couple seconds and won't let you re-search without exiting. Maybe I need to go back to Google searches and books bc in the field this is a time waste.
