What makes Trip Tick different
Plenty of apps can hold a list. Trip Tick is built around three ideas that matter when you are actually out birding.
Built for the field
Record as you walk, even with no signal. Everything syncs the moment you are back in range. Life, year and month ticks are worked out for you as soon as you save, so there is nothing to tally up later.
Offline recording →Private by default
Your lists, not a public database. Nothing is shared unless you choose to share it, and we never sell, pass on or publish your records. Export everything whenever you like.
Who sees your sightings →From your patch to a week away
Every visit is its own trip, so an hour on your local patch builds your patch list just as a day at a reserve does. Away for a week? The Date Range report (Premium) brings the whole holiday together: every site, every day, every life tick.
See the reports →Built for the way you actually bird
Birdwatching or bird watching, however you spell it — this birdwatching app keeps your records tidy, your totals live and your data yours, from the first tick to the thousandth.

It’s clear that Trip Tick has been designed by people who actually understand birdwatching rather than simply building another generic logging app.
Superb app, simple and effective to use. New to the birdwatching hobby but Trip Tick has made the start of the journey much easier.
Easy to use birding app with incredible reporting data and stats. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to record their birding data!
A bird recording app developed by a birder, excellent reporting functions, needs to be seen to be believed… Cannot recommend it highly enough
…now it’s been launched I can’t rate it enough, making my birding journey much easier and fun.
Excellent app. Easy to use. Help readily available from creator if needed. The reports have helped me see my birding data in a new way.
