Great product, and the app is great too. It's usually able to ID birds for me accurately, which has been so fun in use with Merlin Bird ID (bird song recognition app) to get more familiar with the birds around me. Video and photo quality with bird buddy are INCREDIBLE! I can't stop showing off my bird visitors! Love the app features like cleaning reminders, facts about my visitors, and livestream accessibility.

I'd give this only 4 stars currently, because editing features are very lacking. However I have been in touch with the team and I know they are working on updating that so I have faith. Love photos & videos of my birds. And especially naming them.

if you already understand birds, bird buddies are awesome. my only complaint is initial livestream connections are very slow on my device, despite the available troubleshooting tools telling me I have good signal (I have a 2.4ghz repeater in the room closest to the feeder)

I got the birdbuddy as a gift and I'm absolutely blown away at the technology packed in this feeder. The app uses artificial intelligence to recognize the type of bird it is and can even distinguish between different birds of the same species. It automatically takes the best shots it can get from a 55 second video and create "postcards" with those images. 10 out of 10!

Just so much fun! Bird videos that make laugh when their AI says "Northern flicker" and it is actually a squirrel
