Common questions
How do I catch a bird?
Open the Capture tab, line the bird up inside the square, and tap the shutter. The species is identified in a few seconds and added to your ChickaDex.
The app identified my bird wrong.
Identification is done by AI and it isn't perfect, especially with look-alike species. For the best results, get as close as you safely can so the bird fills the square, shoot in good light, and try for a side view. If a catch is wrong, open that bird's page and use the trash button to remove it.
It couldn't identify anything, or told me to try again later.
Identifying a bird needs an internet connection. To keep the app free for everyone there are also fair-use limits on how many photos can be identified in a short time. If you reach one, wait a while and try again.
Do I have to allow location access?
No. Location is used to judge how rare a bird is where you are and to label each catch with a place name. If you decline, the app uses only the country from your phone's Region setting. You can change the permission at any time in Settings.
Where do the reference photos come from?
From Wikimedia Commons, under Creative Commons licenses. Each photo's photographer and license are shown under it on the bird's page.
Will my collection move to a new phone?
Your collection is stored only on your phone. It is included in your phone's normal backup, so restoring a new iPhone from your backup brings it along. It is not synced between devices.
How do I delete my data?
Use Reset ChickaDex from the menu at the top of the ChickaDex tab to erase your collection, or delete the app to remove everything. Nothing is kept on our servers.
