Didn't realise it was a yearly expense but this is by far the best app for beginner to advanced mycologists! I'm happy to pay for the service as it is so much better that it's contemporaries. The catalogue of data is pretty large, the identification features are good and detailed. It gives a list of possible mushrooms from one picture. My only gripe with this app so far is the fact that when selecting images mushrooms you can only do one at a time, stopping my from dropping albums of fungi.

8-24-23Mushroom specific 'Plant Identifier ID' app with nice features specific to Mushrooms. 6-3-24 Wish I had needed #humanrights to enjoy more, but only so much you can do when you are forced to use either an expired voicemail or another carrier's app. Plus living in a state where #attorneymisconduct allows #childabuse don't help #42USC1983.

I love that there is a free trial but the yearly subscription is too expensive for what you get. If it was a 1 time fee I would consider it. This info seems to be crowd sourced. Out of 8 mushrooms I submitted only 3 were correctly ID'd. Even if it is incorrect it is labeled as correct and you have to go back in to fix it and then you have to enter the right name for it (ID it yourself.) You can not copy text from the site which is annoying when cross referencing the info elsewhere. App freezes.

Better if you could set the zone to exclude impossible matches and it has often been incorrect for me. I am glad we got the trial because this doesn't help with a lot of the similar looking ones. Also adding a "commonly mistaken for" section or ability to narrow when the options presented are not correct. Like "No these were not correct" and it then asks "Does it have XYZ?"

Strike one: forcing users to create an account for an app that by its nature and functionality absolutely does not require one. Strike two: expensive recurring subscription plans only, with no possibility to purchase the software once and for all. Strike three: does require almost ideal pictures of the object in terms of distance, angle, lighting etc. to identify it correctly. Forcing users to create an account and ripping us off ad infinitum means that this milkingware is now being uninstalled.

I still think I'm a novice at mushroom hunting, but for the last year I've found this app very useful and mostly quite accurate. Caution should still always be advised to double check the results against a recognised guide, and to check for look-a-likes, and compare as many images as you can. Never pick anything you don't need (leave it for nature), and never eat anything you are not 100% sure on.

Updated my review because I felt bad, but the x sign for the subscription page is barely visible. Even after developer's reply I had to call in backup to Pixel search for me. Idk maybe it's my eyes.

If you use this. Beware. You must log in and use the free trial to even operate the app, it says you can cancel, but there is no way to cancel within the app. You will be emailing them at the support team or canceling a card to cancel the subscription that auto renew's.

Not particularly accurate, poor database of fungi in my area, forced to try by subscription, and impossible to cancel. I'm £26 down for poor software. There are far better identification apps than this one.

excellent identification tool. every time I come across any fruiting body, I whip out this app, and rather quickly, I get the most accurate results of any apps I've used, with pictures to help with matching, and it's usually right on the first result.

DON'T DO IT!!! This is a scam to charge your Google play account! If you don't sign up for the free trial, every time you try to id something, it says you have no connection, even though you can see that you do. If you look closely, the free trial switch is already flipped when you go to the payment page! Even if you flip it back, if you go back to it, it is flipped back.

This app opened me up to a whole new world of Mycelium. I use the app all the time as a starting point in identifying mushrooms. It is a good way to learn about different kinds of mushrooms especially if you don't know any experienced mycologists. There are a couple tweaks to the app that would make it more helpful. 1. Make it available offline! 2. Ability to run the search function again on mushrooms that you thought were one species but weren't 100% sure.

Got multiple answers so I took each with a grain of salt and used the information and gallery to help determine if it was possibly what the result was. However not all results have the same information and as far as distribution it isn't very specific. It would be more beneficial if there was a map that showed where it could be found. Overall vague results and not worth any money.

App either would open and immediately close, or it would take forever to load after taking a photo or it would reject and tell me it's having connection issues, which was a bunch of bull#&@*! Because nothing else seemed to be having issues, I'd Definitely like a full refund, plus it doesn't even tell you if they are toxic, edible, or uses per id. It's basically useless and I would recommend not installing this dum& app. Crock of shananigins!!!

Immediately upon opening this app will pressure you to subscribe. First off, apps like this should not be a subscription. Too many subscriptions in apps now. That alone should be enough to pass on this. I tried identifying one mushroom and it did get it correct, but in the process the app once again (twice now in a matter of a few minutes) did a full screen attempt to scam me into subscribing. Avoid these leeching style apps. Total trash. There are better options.

You don't have to give your credit card information to use the photo identification aspect of this app. as it first appears. Just look to the bottom of your screen to see other options when the free trial page pops up to use the photo aspect of the app. It was quick identifying a Ruby Bolete that's in our yard. It's a good app, but the free version didn't tell me if it was poisonous to touch or eat, or if harmful to pets. Other than those 3 issues it's a good app. Thank you.

Trial Subscription Not Transparent - Signed up for a $1.99 month trial. Was notified of new charges, in less than a month. When directed on how to cancel, received confirmation the cancelation would be in 1 year. Tried to get customer support, and was then told the "cancelation" was for the auto renewal in a year and had to go back and forth before getting confirmation of canceling of subscr at the end of the month. Had to also get a refund on a 2nd $36.00 charge on my account. Ridiculous!

It took me awhile to use this app with my photos, particularly when it needed to be sized down to be within the apps frame. Pinching down with one hand, while pressing the button with the other is a bit awkward. However, the rest of the app is a real asset when foraging for mushrooms. I am amazed at the number of positive i.d.'s that it comes up with.

I loved this app, for the most part it was pretty accurate. I liked that it shows you the basic time of year and what others are finding in my area. It's nice to know AND see possible look alikes. As of the last few weeks when getting ID from pics it will get to 97% w/ pics . It won't load past that, says reconnect or try again later..? Not working!! I have cleared all cache and re-downloaded the app. Still nothing! It's a shame cause imo was best app out there!!

While the app did technically work, their free trial and subscription model felt almost predatory. If you selected the free trial, they automatically set you up with the one year subscription. Not the one month or the one week. The one YEAR. Which is $30. Kinda steep for missing the cut-off day by 3 days. I would definitely stay away from this app.
