Comeback idea

A bird song identification app that helps birders name the calls they hear on every walk.

The write-up

BirdGenie turns every birdsong into a name you can learn, and it's ready for a second act. Backyard birding and nature walks are booming, and listeners want a simple way to match a call to its species on their phone. The name is up for a fresh start, so here's how you'd relaunch it: a relaunched mobile app for birdsong recognition with field photos and bird guides, launched at getbirdgenie.com.
