Description
RioBirds Watch is a birdwatching journal with a companion bird that grows as you put in field hours. Log a sighting in under twenty seconds, attach a photo from your own library, and watch your life list, your streak and your companion's plumage develop over a season.
Everything you record lives on your device first. Logging, editing, photo attachment, guide browsing and the training-flight mini-game all work with the radio off. The network only synchronises — it never blocks you.
LOG SIGHTINGS FAST • Pick a species, count, habitat and area in a single sheet • Recent species and most-used area names available as one-tap chips • Free-text field notes up to 500 characters • Attach a photo from the camera or your library, stored on device • Drafts survive backgrounding, so an interrupted entry is never lost
FIELD GUIDE AND LIFE LIST • 24 bundled entries across 12 bird families with field marks, calls and flight shape • Filter by six habitats and four rarity tiers, or show only what you have not yet seen • Search across entry names, family names and field-mark text • Per-family life list showing how many entries you have logged • Month-by-month season strip for each entry • Your own record per bird: first seen, last seen, highest count, areas, photos
A PERMANENT JOURNAL • Records grouped by month with totals, distinct entries, distinct areas and streak • Photo mode shows a three-column contact sheet of your own images • Sort by newest, oldest or species A–Z, and search notes and areas • Full-screen photo viewer with paging, pinch zoom and captions • Export your journal as CSV or export your whole photo set
DAILY QUESTS • Three quests each day, identical for every keeper on that date • Observation, habitat, species-count, guide-reading and glide quests • Progress computed from records on your device, confirmed with the server later • Bundled starter deck when the app has never reached the network
YOUR COMPANION • Choose a family and name your bird during a short setup • Grows through Fledgling, Juvenile, Adult and Crested stages across 30 levels • Spend plumes on Eyesight, Stamina, Song and Camouflage traits • Unlock and equip plumage colours that retint your bird everywhere • Milestones for records, families and streaks, plus a 14-day growth chart
THERMAL GLIDE • A short training flight where your own companion is the flying bird • Tap to gain height and glide through canopy gaps, collecting seeds • Distance measured in metres, with your best distance tracked • Converts a spare minute into experience on days with no birds
COMMUNITY • Leaderboards for distinct family count and best glide distance, weekly or by season • Season tally showing which families keepers are seeing, with share and trend • Your own rank pinned above the list • Tap a family row to jump straight to the guide
BUILT FOR OFFLINE • Cached decks, tallies and boards are shown with the time they were fetched • Sightings queue with a stable identifier so a retried upload never double-counts • Clear sync status in the journal with a manual retry
PRIVACY • No account, no password, no email, no third-party sign-in • An anonymous device identifier is the only credential • Your field name is the only thing other keepers see, and you can share it as anonymous • Photos and field notes never leave your device • Delete all data at any time, on the device and on the server
