If a bird was misrecognized by Bird AI, you can remove the incorrect record from your Birds collection. This helps keep your collection accurate and supports ongoing improvements to recognition.
Prerequisites
Important:
- All users have permission to remove misrecognized birds from the Birds tab.
- Only admin users have permission to mark records from the playback as misidentified.
App Version Requirements:
- Android: Version 2.50.2 or later
- iOS: Version 3.50.2 or later
If needed, update the app to the latest version before proceeding.
Remove Misrecognized Birds (Available Now)
You can remove misrecognized birds using either of these methods:
Method 1: Remove from Birds Page
- Open the app and go to the Birds page.
- Locate the photo you want to remove.
- Tap the More Options icon (three dots) in the bottom right corner of the photo.
- Select Mark cover photo as misidentified.
Method 2: Remove from Playback Page
- Navigate to the playback details page of the video containing the misrecognized bird.
- Select Mark as misrecognized.
What Happens After Removal
After marking a bird as misrecognized using either method:
- The incorrect bird entry will be removed from the Birds tab page.
- If there are other videos under the same bird type, the app will automatically select a new cover photo.
- If no other videos are available, the bird type will be hidden from your list.
Important: This action does not delete any playback videos. The video remains available in your Library and is simply relabeled as A bird detected.
Edit Misrecognized Bird Information (Under Development)
The option to edit or change a bird identification directly is currently under development. This feature will allow you to correct misrecognized birds without removing them entirely, and will be included in a future update.
