How it plays

You tap a big green button and the phone listens for up to 30 seconds. When a song is recognized, a card flips over with the bird's illustration, name and rarity, and lands in your state album. Albums fill over the seasons; rare and legendary birds stay face down until you catch them. A daily streak and achievements keep people coming back outside.
