Mushroom Id North America

Practical, easy to carry with me out in the woods

This app is not worth downloading for free let alone paying for it. I’m going to request a refund.

Good information

First off I wanted to like the app and it does indeed have great pictures. I do feel that the descriptions are lacking. I have also not had any luck using the scientific name in the search function which is kind of a bummer. Thirdly, it lists psilocybes as poisonous which is a little dishonest I think. All in all I feel like I wasted $5, had to give it 3 stars because it still has some good features and a decent library it still needs work to be a 5star app

A good app for beginner through novice. It’s best value is as a steppingstone to more thorough but intimidating apps.

But they won’t commit on as to wether or not you can eat them. They do tell you which ones you CAN’T eat, so that’s a plus.

This app helped me identify and get rid of toxic fungi growing near my tomatoes. Useful for sating curiosity and developing some amateur ID skills. Would recommend.

It’s quite useful while out walking around, but I find several types aren’t in the database. I’m sure it will continue to improve over time. I use it all the time!

A very good reference for someone like me who knows nothing about fungi.

5 dollars seems like a bit much when many of the categories only have one species. Very limited use.
