It worked fine for me. I usually enter my count each week on my PC, but it's nice to have alternate if I'm not logged in when I want to enter my count.

A big improvement for count collection. I love the visual bird guides integrated into the interface.

Easy to use! I love Feeder watch. Tracking birds and recording my observations is easy with the app!

Unable to log in this year. The app freezes after entering password. Update: thanks for the response. The bug fix appears to be working. I was able to log in. The app is more convenient to use rather than entering the counts on the website.

Latest version (1.1.14) works just fine on my Android tablet using WI-fi. I like the Common Feeder Birds photos and info too.

I cannot get past the login attempt. I deleted and reinstalled and still get the same error messages to "restore modal checking" and "restore modal checking version" 11/3/22 There is a workable link on the app login page that takes you to the PFW webpage. I got to the data entry page and the *last* thing allowed is to enter bird counts - after entering all the ancillary info first. Yay. Pre-realtime data!! Apparently I need to go back to paper and pencil. Please fix this app!!!

Unusable on Android as of 12-4-2022 The app installed ok. Login was okay. The app is broken for Android, because when you select the count days on the calendar, they turn blue and then...nothing else happens, so you cannot sumbit any counts ever. Oddly the squares sometimes turn green instead of blue, but still doesn't work.

This app is worthless! Will not update counts, does not retain time of day for sightings, will not submit data (keeps saying "data is incomplete". I am deleting app and will resort to manual tallies on paper and enter on computer. Pathetic that we have to pay to participate in Feeder Watch and then mobil app is not functional. I have uninstalled and reinstalled twice. Still no good!

App is terrible and never works. So disappointed at Cornell for the failure to make this simple app work. Paid $18 to join feeder watch only to not be able to even submit my lists. I don't get what the point of this app is then if it doesn't work. 👎👎👎👎👎
