Lifer - Bird ID & Birding

Lifer turns birding into a daily collecting game. Identify birds by sound or camera, catch them as beautiful species cards, build your Aviary, grow your Life List, and turn every walk into a birding adventure. ■ Catch Birds By Sound Or Camera - Hear something nearby? Audio Catch listens for birds, shows their song on a live spectrogram and brings animated birds onto the screen to catch. - See a bird instead? Camera Catch uses Lifer AI to help identify birds from photos. - Got a camera? Field Camera identifies photos from your own camera and turns verified shots into catches. - Audio Catch runs on-device, so you can keep detecting even when you are offline. ■ Collect Species Cards - Every catch flies into a collectible bird card with points based on rarity and catch quality. - Each card is stamped with the real-world biome where it was found, such as woodland, wetland, coast, countryside, or urban. - Chase Rare and Legendary birds, Prismwing cards, streaks, Bird of the Day, milestones, and a growing collection of every species you have seen. ■ Explore Nests - Discover over 4,000 parks, reserves, National Trust sites, RSPB reserves, and other birding locations across the UK and Europe. - Contribute catches to each Nest’s shared record of species, sightings, photos, and first discoveries. - Explore local leaderboards and compete to become the rolling Nest Guardian. - Search nearby Nests, follow their activity and celebrate Guardian stories in the social feed. - Your exact catch coordinates remain private. ■ Share With GBIF - Choose to share qualifying UK and European catches with GBIF - the world’s largest open-access biodiversity database. - Help birds and science! ■ Bird With Friends - Join Birding Parties to catch birds together as a group. - Follow other birders, react to catches, celebrate milestones, and climb the rankings. - Create private Flocks for family, friends, bird clubs, or local groups, with shared Life Lists, feeds, and leaderboards. ■ Track Your Birding Life - Map your catches, grow UK county coverage, track countries across Europe, and collect US states and Canadian provinces. - Start Bird Walks to record your route, distance, and species count. - Import exported sightings from other birding apps into your Life List. - Get a personal Year In Birds recap with species, streaks, rare finds, distance walked, and favourite moments. ■ Daily Quizzes - Take on four daily quizzes to improve your birding knowledge and earn points. - Personal Sound Quiz: Identify birds using your own field recordings. - Birdsong Quiz: Learn bird calls and songs using licensed species recordings. - Rare Bird ID: Identify a rare bird using only its image. - Field Clue: Name the bird from four clues.
