I had the original Sibley eGuide to Birds App (v1), but now it’s gone from the App Store, where can I find it?

Because the original app is no longer being supported it could cease to function with any update of the operating system of your phone. If you continue using it, be sure to regularly back up any list data that you keep in the app. See my blog post here.

If you want to reinstall the first edition Sibley eGuide app on your device, you will discover that it is no longer listed in the app store. You can still find it in your purchase history.

With the release of the new second edition of the app in 2018, the first edition is no longer being supported or sold, and has been removed from the catalog in the app store. It is still available for download to anyone who already owned it. Simply log in to your app store account and view your “purchased” apps. The Sibley eGuide to Birds v1 should show up there and be available for download.

And if none of that works you can send me an email through the “contact” link in the header.

  1. Is the Sibley plan to make versions of the Sibley Birds apps go obsolete and no longer operate (e.g. V1) and force users to purchase the V2? My wife is in that position and she is VERY UNHAPPY. If this is true, I believe is not in the spirit of the Apple application loyalty. I am a iBird Pro app user and it has been updated significantly MANY times without obsolesce or requiring users to repurchase. Is there an APPEAL process to Sibley’s action regarding this?
