The Cornell BirdNET web site site includes some directions and a short video on how to easily use the app.
This warbler, a very vocal and colorful bird about the size of a chickadee, is often found in woodlands or large shade trees where it can be hard to see. During May through September the Redstart is a very common bird in Maryland, even if often not seen.
Another warbler, a bit smaller than a chickadee, the N. Parula is often found in woodlands or large shade trees where it often spends most of its time high up in trees, making it easier to hear than to see.

I used it myself for the first time this week, and the app quickly identified several bird calls I was hearing (but not seeing) from my backyard, as I was listening to them!
This common blackbird typically found in wetlands is very vocal and territorial during nesting season.
We have two species of crows in Maryland. One is the large American Crow, famous for it caw caw calls, common in many fields, farms, and suburbs. The Fish Crow is its smaller cousin, common here during much of the year, though less so in winter.
This migrant, another vocal woodland bird about the size of a goldfinch, is also quite common here from May through September, again usually unseen, but this vireo is often heard.
