BirdWatcher's Digest magazine review, December 2011.

"The Peterson Birds of North America app has given itself a delicate mission: to preserve the integrity and ease of use of the 75-year-old granddaddy of modern printed field guides and to do so without getting all sentimental or stodgy about it. It succeeds pretty well."

Customer Reviews

Better than my book (5 stars)
I have tried or researched all of the bird apps and this is my favorite. I appreciate that the developers put real thought into the usability of this guide on iOS, and in this regard Peterson's and iBird are the top of the heap. However I greatly prefer Peterson's for several reasons: the main screen is organized into useful groups of similar birds, making it quick to use; and the app retains the strengths of the paper Peterson guides, wit

Fantastic! (5 stars)
This app is amazing. The user-friendly interface makes it one of the most useful of the birding apps currently available, and the pictures, replete with identification points, are second to none. I am a long time birder and early adopter of nearly every North American birding app and I can honestly say that Peterson Birds is the one I turn to most often.

Good but needs work (3 stars)
Love the concept and overall I am happy. I have not seen the problems and shortcomings earlier reviews point out which tells me developers are listening and improving. Number one problem is not having a shortcut to record a sighting when you do a text search from home screen menu?!?! So I see a pine warbler, I already know what it is and want to record it so I use search, find the bird and I have all the info but no sighting or even a check
