I absolutely would be interested in your personalizeable bird app or Merlin add-on, to the point of $$. JSYK.

For family & health reasons I haven't birded in the field much for the last 5 years, but now I've got a better pair of eyeglasses and I'm about to go on a trip to an area new to me (Olympic Peninsula). This is my first real birding trip since Merlin came in, so I'd like some advice on how you use Merlin/ebird in the field. Or a pointer to a post/video of someone doing in the way you do.

My biggest issue with birding apps (& photography) these days is that I need separate glasses for distance and near vision, bifocals make me queasy. So I can't rapidly go between looking at the bird and looking at my phone.
