Features WP & UK Birding Checklist
WP Birding Checklist full version (includes UK and Europe)PHOTOS & SOUNDS are downloaded separately, and must be manually installed via your PC.
Please check the Readme file at this download website so you know how to do this.
The photos and sounds are NOT included in the download package from the Android market.
It is recommended that you test the download and install process with the demo version first, then upgrade to the full version when you have confirmed that it is working.** IMPORTANT UPDATE - these applications were first developed 10 years ago for Android 2.1.
Over the years Google has made changes, and from Android 11 which will be mandatory in 2H21, I will no longer be able to publish updates or support these applications.
Sorry folks, there is no simple fix to meet Googles new security requirements; the Birding Checklists will need to be rewritten.
I will keep them on the Google Play store for as long as possible, but they are now in sunset and do not currently have any plans for a replacement.
**If you still have difficulties please check out the support website before emailing me: https://sites.google.com/site/birdingchecklists/This is one of a series of Birding Checklist applications for Android mobile phones and tablets.
There are applications for Australia, New Zealand, United States (excluding Mexico and South America), Western Palearctic (UK and Europe), the Middle East, Pacific Islands, South Africa, and Ecuador/Peru/Bolivia.WP Download website:https://drivehq.com/folder/p8404317.aspxWestern Palearctic (includes UK) – 924 species and 1188 subspeciesThese applications include basic bird identification information, and are NOT intended to replace a field guide.
It is expected that users will have good familiarity with the birds they are seeing, and will use this application for:a.
Logging bird sightings (with GPS co-ordinates if your phone has a GPS)b.
Uploading your sightings to eBird (or similar PC or online recording system)c.

What Our Users Say
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our users have to say about our Android app.
"Waste of time, won't download the photos and sounds tried several ways even got the I.T geek at work to try, waste of £2,50"
Alex Butler
"Love it but would love it more if worked on my sd card. I tried, now on internal. Also found it using up space on cloud storage Another issue:I just had to change phone so stored lifelist, app says storing on SD, it doesnt show where stored but actually it was internal too. Had to search & do another way. Helps if user understands this level of tech & that programmer might not know that what they see as SD card might not be what SD card actually is eg on Samsung phone"

"This is a must for traveling in this area"
Bill Elrick
"Easy to use"
Yoav Chudnoff
"Had a bit of a kerfuffle downloading the pics, but I'm pretty sure that was as much due to my lack of technical ability than anything else. I found it difficult to understand the instructions but had great guidance from the developer and I got there in the end. As for the app itself, it's brilliant, I love it."
