Currently the app contains 268 of the most common British birds but we will be updating it in the coming weeks to have more birds of Britain.
If there is a bird that you think we have missed and you would like to see it listed, then please drop us an email at support@clevermatrix.co.uk and we'll happily include it.
NOTE:
------------
When the app is opened for the first time, the image and sound files are downloaded (over 1000 files) therefore it requires that you have a good wifi internet connection. After this initial download of data, the app then functions completely offline, with no need for an internet connection.
If you are having problems with the app, rather than leave a negative review, please email us and we will help rectify any problems that you are having. Email us at support@clevermatrix.co.uk
***********************
We have had some users reporting that they get the no internet error, when they open the app, when this is not the case. This is due to the app not being able to access the internet, not that the phone can't see the internet. It is usually due to a setting on the phone blocking the app from using the internet or a firewall blocking the app.
Try the following: go to manage apps and then clear data for the birds of Britain app, then reopen the app. If this does not work, then uninstall the app and remove the BritainBirds folder from the SD card, if it exists. Now go to settings and in Accounts and Sync, ensure that Background Data is checked. Turn the phone off and then back on and then redownload the app. When you open the app, the items should start to download, this can take a while, don't interrupt this process. Also ensure the screen saver doesn't come on as this can affect the internet connection. This should hopefully fix the problem.

"No Internet Connection" I have a Google Nexus S, and received the well-documented "No Internet Connection" error. The solution, supposedly, is to "...go to "Accounts and Sync" within the settings of your phone and ensure that Background Data is checked." The Nexus S doesn't have this option (it's running Ice Cream Sandwich) so I un-installed the app. It's a shame the developers can't address this issue - or update their work-around instructions.

Comprehensive Requires wifi connection to download initial database, but seems comprehensive and easy to navigate once fully installed.

Was a big troublesome to get up & running with the usual, no internet connection, but a great app that I can't wait to use fully.

Brilliant Great app, the sounds are good although not all birds have a sound option. One other thing, the buzzard page actually has a picture of an eagle, otherwise a must have!

Birds of britainy Couldn't install at first. Kept telling me there was no internet connection. Makers told me to uninstall and clear firewall etc but i didn't want to pay again so i went into manage aps and clicked clear data. Pressed ap again, waited a few seconds and hey presto it loaded. Great ap. I did exactly the same with trees of Britain.
