A writer for Lifehacker, a guide to tech and life tips, gave Haikubox a try and found it was "incredibly engaging."
In her review she commented:
"Within moments of setup, I was receiving recordings of individual hummingbirds and pine siskins, which I expected. But sounds I had not pinned down before suddently had an ID and the updates have often made me run to the window or door to see if I could find the source of the song."
