The Warbler Guide Pros
✓ Beautiful AppIntuitive and easy to use interface. The first page is thumbnail pictures of warblers, making it easy to find a bird similar to the sighting and click on it for details. There are multiple pictures of each bird from different angles. Most of the pictures are clear and crisp. Similar species are presented also. I have already used the app to identify one of my mystery bird pictures. This will easily become one of my favorite bird apps..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Brace yourselves, Warblers are coming...The seasonal migrations of warblers are exciting, intense, confusing, and over in the blink of an eye. The tools you'll need to survive are a strong neck for looking up, powerful optics, polarized sunglasses, and a phone with this app. Every birder is familiar with Princeton's printed edition of the Warbler Guide, but few know about their app. Even if you have the book, this app is perfect for quick reference and comparison of the warbler species. You can set up your region and season to simplify the listed birds. The images show every angle of the bird possible, including the underside and tail of the bird. I also love the sound comparison section in the app, in which you can do an advanced vocal search, based on buzzy quality, number of phrases in a song, upward or downward notes, etc. Bird songs can also be compared to others, which is an incredible feature that helped me identify a Cerulean and Orange-crowned. This is totally worth the money. Time to go birding!.Version: 1.0.1
✓ The Warbler Guide Positive ReviewsThe Warbler Guide Cons
✗ It’s ok but could use some improvementThe 3D view is great. As another reviewer mentioned, it would be nice to be able to choose the warblers to compare. My main beef is: where is the Northern Parula?.Version: 1.1.0
✗ Interface is not easy to useThis app is based on the book of the same name. It's loaded with information about North American warblers. There are also some clever features such as 3D models you can rotate with your finger. That's the good news. The bad news is the UI is baffling to understand. I've spent 30 minutes trying to get a list of warblers in my area and I'm still stuck. The other issue is everything is super tiny so it's hard to enter any details. Like the range map divides the USA into 4 quadrants so the is NW, SW, NE & SE. Pretty crude but I can't tell if my city is in the NW or SW. It's interesting that an app can be overflowing with content and yet still be inaccessible. I wish I'd waited for someone else to buy it because it's pretty useless to me right now. If the developers would allow zooming of the images and put some more details into the maps it would help a whole bunch. Finally the developers need to write a tutorial with examples..Version: 1.0.1
