About this APK

Birds Complete Reference Guide is an app by luminous apps in the Education category. It includes native code only for x86 64-bit, so it won't install on ordinary ARM phones (only on x86 devices such as emulators and some Chromebooks).

Since version 1.7.1, the APK grew from 75.7 MB to 88.1 MB and the minimum Android version rose from 4.4W to 6.0. It asks for 10 permissions, none of them sensitive. Compared with version 1.7.5, it adds 3 new permissions: “Access adservices ad id”, “Access adservices attribution” and “Access adservices topics”. The app offers in-app purchases through Google Play and can read the advertising ID that ad and analytics services use.

Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

A complete birding reference app that includes over 11,400 species of birds grouped into 243 birding families. Birding multimedia is available with songs, calls, images and videos. This app includes locations where you can listen to the beautiful and distinct high quality songs and calls of individual birds with access to over 500,000 bird songs and calls. Images for each bird species are also linked to. Over 7,000,000 images of beautiful birds can be accessed. Video links are included where you are able to analyze the movement and elegance of each bird. Over 160,000 videos can be accessed. All birds and lists can be accessed without an internet connection, however access to birding multimedia (sounds, images and videos) do require an online internet connection. You can search for a bird with the English name or Scientific name. A favorite list is also available allowing you to add any bird to your favorites. Personal birding lists can also be created helping you manage bird findings into your own separated lists. In-depth information for each bird can be found using the Wikipedia links found in each bird profile screen. Additional birding data will be added to this app frequently and with more features planned in future updates too! If you feel there are any omissions that you would like to see added, or have any issues with that app please send us an Email.
