You must be wondering what this has to do with birds and birding but here goes. I have a very old phone which is very simple but does the job I need it to do ie text and call (or miscal honestly). It is about time I upgraded to a better phone, a smartphone of some sort. If I buy a smart phone I want it to aid my birding. There are various apps out there for all types of different things. What apps are out there to help birders? Someone played me bird song from an app once. I would like to know the latest information on which birds have turend up where within the local area.
What types of apps and aids are available for birders on smart phones? How do smart phones users use their devices to help with birding and any other wildlife watching in any way? Do different smart phones come with different appa/aids etc....
I have never really used a smart phone so if this thread looks a bit stupid then that is why. Now that I will upgrade I want to make the right choice of which smart phone to buy. I do have some reasonable idea about smart phones but not a complete picture and as technology does move fairly fast, i do find it hard to keep up. Looking forward to any informative replies.
