Bird Talk

Say hello to your bird in a language it already knows. BirdTalk turns a phrase you choose into a real recorded call from your bird's own species. Pick your bird, tap a big button, and the sound plays. That is the whole app. HOW IT WORKS • Swipe through full-screen photos and choose your bird • Tap one of eight phrases, written in large, plain type • A real recording of that species plays straight away • Tap the same phrase again to stop it THREE COMMON PET BIRDS • Cockatiel • Budgerigar, also called a budgie or parakeet • Fischer's lovebird Each bird has its own set of eight sounds. A cockatiel never plays a budgie's chirp. EIGHT THINGS TO SAY Hello. Good morning. Where are you. Come here. Time to eat. Let's sing. I love you. Good night. REAL RECORDINGS, NOT IMITATIONS Every sound is cut from an actual recording of that species, shared by wildlife recordists under Creative Commons licences. Nothing is synthesised, and no clip is sped up, slowed down or shifted in pitch. Clips are only trimmed and repeated, the way a bird repeats its own calls. Each recordist, and the licence for their recording, is credited on a Credits page inside the app. BUILT FOR OLDER EYES AND HANDS • Large text and buttons you cannot miss • One clear action on every screen • Every swipe also has a button, so nothing depends on a gesture • Works with your phone's large-text setting turned up • No menus to get lost in and nothing to set up FIVE LANGUAGES English, 中文（简体）, 廣東話, Bahasa Melayu and தமிழ். Change language at any time from any screen. The Cantonese is written the way people actually speak it, not Mandarin in traditional characters. PRIVATE, AND COMPLETELY OFFLINE • No internet permission at all, so the app cannot send anything anywhere • No account, no sign-up, no email address • No advertising, no tracking, no analytics • Nothing is collected about you or your bird • Works on a plane, in a lift, or with mobile data switched off FREE, WITH NOTHING TO BUY BirdTalk costs nothing. There are no in-app purchases, no subscription and no locked birds. ONE HONEST NOTE BirdTalk is a companion for fun and company. It does not translate bird language, and your bird may well ignore it. Play the sounds at a comfortable volume and stop if your bird seems startled or upset. If you have any concern about your bird's health, please speak to a veterinarian.
