This app doesn’t even deserve a star

I thought that this app would be a great experience for me to help log bird counts but no. Apparently you would have to pay a freaking $18!! This app is completely useless for those who would rather spend $18 on something else.

Buggy - please do better

This is my first year participating in FeederWatch. The app seems pretty straightforward, but entries of species counts, interactions etc. are not saved consistently. I looked at my entries from last night, and only a part of the data had been recorded. I re-entered the missing entries. I checked the count records several hours later, and a different set was saved with several missing. Re-entered AGAIN, and checked several minutes later. Rinse and repeat. This is maddening and discourages me from participating further.
