I have an iphone and use iBird Explorer Plus. There is also an iBird Explorer Pro. You can look at http://www.ibirdexplorer.com/ for a comparison of iBird to other apps, as well as compare the Plus and Pro versions. Plus is $19.99 and PRO is $29.99. I also have Sibley (a late-comer to the app world). Because I am more used to iBird, I tend to use it more than Sibley. iBird has drawings as well as photos of most birds. Sibley has the drawings that are so wonderful in the Sibley Field Guides, but no photos. iBird indexes by LastName, FirstName, or Family. Sibley gives a taxonomic index as well as alpha index by bird type (bluebird, blackbird, etc). I also use the Birdjam Iphone app. You need to have purchased Birdjam (the Thayer and Stokes CD’s) for your pc. Then you can download it to your itouch and use the app to play bird sounds on your itouch. iBird has bird sounds, but not as extensive as BirdJam. I just got BirdsEye which helps you locate birds locally. I haven't really used it yet, so can't comment. However, I just checked it and it is showing a Pacific Loon that I heard about over the weekend in my area.
