Comment on New Sibley iPhone app by Grant McCreary

I know that the iBird app, and even the Sibley app, were originally developed for the Windows Pocket PC platform. But that never really took off, so they were ported to the iPhone. I don’t know if they have plans to take it to others, like the Android, though.

There are many great birding applications available. Certainly they cannot be exclusive to iphone. The Android operating system should be included in application development.

Wow – these sound like great events (especially the Tucson panel discussion). Sadly, I will not be able to attend either one.

Thanks for the update to include Sibley app. The Comparison table is great and I think I will go with iBird. Sibley need to put a lite version of Sibley app to try like iBird did. Great job!

Added the new Sibley app to the list, along with a comparison between it and iBird. Also, check out the Comparison table from iBird again. They've also added the Sibley app.

Thanks, I will look forward to a review of Sibley app and comparison to iBird.

At first look, iBird is confusing, I need to look closer, but my current impression is the iBird Pro has all the features of the there other products plus a little more.

Another concern is that I can give/sell my paper Sibleys if I did not like it by can not transfer an APP to someone else.

There were a couple comments about the Sibley app on my iBird review. I hadn't realized it had been released. I've requested a copy, so hopefully I can compare it to the others soon.

I see a Sibley eGuide to the Birds of No. America. Released Feb 10 1010, V1,0. I would like to see comparisons/review. On user of iBird Pro likes it better at the iTunes Store.
