Disappointing, you advertise Ai call recognition, but don't say you have to pay an additional subscription over and above the purchase. Misleading!!

Excellent app for me as a beginner. The price I paid for it is worth every penny.

As a frequent Kruger visitor, and someone who does not know the smaller bird species very well, I find this app incredibly useful. It has really helped me identify birds I would otherwise never have known. The bird sounds feature is especially useful, and the bird identification function works far better than I expected. I have been genuinely impressed with how accurate and easy it is to use. I enjoy this app a lot and would definitely recommend it to fellow bird lovers and bush visitors.
