Birdfy

Nice hardware but app is mixed. We're lucky not to be impacted by the 2.4ghz restriction, but the app still leaves a lot to be desired. Navigation feels slow and somewhat unintuitive. Manual tagging is very frustrating - always suggests the same birds from the other side of the Atlantic, can't enter mammals other than the preconfigured ones. Lots of false positives motion detection with no log l living things. Notifications feel clumsy so have silenced for now and review on a daily basis.

Setup and connection went ok, but the app itself is very buggy. Lots of issues with it remembering birds and listing the correct ones. Birds that have been recognised, tagged and collected can disappear completely. Incorrectly tagged birds are impossible to remove. Counts are incorrect .. it says "6 birds" then lists 5. Lots of bugs.

Ten hours of tinkering and 1.5 hours of IT & no paired cameras! My spouse bought me two Birdfy feeders, a hummingbird feeder and a large ebony seed feeder with solar power. I have NEVER had such a hard time pairing a smart device with an app, EVER. Finally figured out how to pause our 5ghz band, but NOPE. Bluetooth failed to pair with my phone bc of "incorrect PIN or passkey," and turning off my Bluetooth and trying to use my spouse's phone was a dud. HORRIBLE APP.
