Mushroom ID: Fungus Identifier for Negative User Reviews

Nothing about this is freeDownloaded for curiousness while hiking. Nothing worked without paying. Options to choose from camera roll pretends to search for a match but the only match it brings up is for a subscription. Why label it as free in App Store when it’s not..Version: 1.12

FailFour known species mis-identified. Unknown species: “a rock”. Canceled subscription..Version: 1.12

Bait and switchTell me upfront it cost money. Stuff on the internet is free. Stop wasting my time..Version: 1.12

This app is a scamThey told me I had a 3 day trial and then charged me immediately to install the app. I was also told that each picture I took was the same mushroom. None of my pictures were the one they claimed them to be. Each picture was a different specimen. This app is not accurate nor is it honorable of its free trial offer. I have had the app for an hour and have been unable to cancel my subscription that I did not intend or desire to purchase. Do not recommend!.Version: 1.11

Many misidentificationsThe app gives a wrong identification of most fungi more frequently than correct ones. I wouldn’t recommend it as a tool for getting oriented to the world of mushrooms..Version: 1.11

Pay to useYou have to sign up for a subscription to use just once. Don’t waste your time with this one. Plenty of other apps that are actually free to use.Version: 1.12

UselessI took a picture of the mushroom. I got a result. It didn’t look like the photo and the information provided was very difficult to sift through. I figured it out myself on Google by searching images of common mushrooms in my area..Version: 1.12

Terribly misleadingThe photo you take with only seem you categorize your mushroom into ‘Gilled’ or ‘non Gilled’ genres It’s extremely vague.Version: 1.7

Not actually freeAll features behind a paywall. Not actually free. Couldn't identify a single mushroom without paying for this overpriced app. I have a plant one thats much cheaper and doesn't have everything behind a paywal.Version: 1.12

Why isn’t this paid app?It simply doesn’t work if you do not sign up for so-called free trial.Just say it’s paid app upfront..Version: 1.12

This app is not freeThis app requires an expensive subscription to use. moreover, it claims to be able to identify fungi down to the genus level from mere fragments of a cap, or not-very-good biro drawings, which makes me skeptical.Version: 1.13

Wont identify anything until you SIGN UPCan’t identify anything until you SIGN UP for a 3 day not so free yearly recurring AUTORENEW account..Version: 1.4

Get a ID bookPurchase a lifetime membership. App either miss identifies or directs you to a general family grouping. App picks up on many specific mushrooms that are easily identified anyway. The worst part is there are many classifications that the description is incomplete or not started at all. Some descriptions are vague and need further elaboration….Version: 1.12

DO NOT DOWNLOAD.This app can identify correctly SOMETIMES. It seems the app mostly run on guest work and normally it will just tell you the general family belong to it’s almost never specific and when it is specific it is most definitely wrong. This app would be worth it even if it was free don’t even waste your time with the free trial. I downloaded it because I thought the idea of technology identifying mushrooms is cool, however I have also spent time studying mushrooms myself and I am not mycologist but the app gets confused even by the simple types of mushrooms that even amateur enthusiasts can recognize with ease..Version: 1.12

Was not a fanI needed a quick identification because i want my dogs to stay safe. Saw a mushroom that I couldn’t identify. The fact i have to pay monthly for a one time thing to make sure my pups are safe is outrageous..Version: 1.12

Charged me although I didn’t use that appI just wanted to try this app out and I only used it for about 30 seconds and they billed me for a year even though I immediately cancelled my subscription. It cannot identify mushrooms..Version: 1.4

Mostly wrongWas tried multiple times on known species and continuously misidentified them. Even attempted identification of ideal specimens of common store-bought mushrooms with no success. This app needs a lot of work..Version: 1.7

Subscription? Seriously?How often do you think people need to identify mushrooms? I just wanted to know if something growing in the dog park was safe for the dogs..Version: 1.12

CrazyThere isn’t even a free trial that you don’t have to sign up for.Version: 1.12

Could be or not is the answer from appThe app gave me no helpful information.Version: 1.12

Only good for basic common mushroomsAnything outside of common mushroom gets pretty much miss labeled, if there is a way to add more than one photo profile to a mushroom id, it’s not obvious. I had the same mushroom analysis 4 times with three different results, all of which ended being incorrect. Do not trust this app for foraging, it’s a liability. At best it can help confirm your own identification, but still recommend against this. The most useful part is the list of species where you can compare their notes on different species and the lookalikes..Version: 1.12

Watch out this app has fees that are obfuscated in the information . This should not be allowedThis app is not free after the trial period and automatically deducts fees thereafter. After three days you will be charged and it’s no so easy to stop it. It requires you to go to iTunes. It’s a trap!.Version: 1.12

Not a Porcini, but app says it isI have these large mushrooms that come up in my yard occasionally. Knowing nothing about mushrooms, I downloaded this app to help identify them. I tried several times with multiple mushrooms and it always identified them as "Penny Bun" mushrooms (aka Porcini, King Bolete, etc), a highly prized mushroom. I started doing some research and concluded these are not Penny Buns, but False King Boletes - edible, but a far cry from Penny Buns. I feel like the app should've been able to distinguish the difference..Version: 1.7

THERE IS NO “FREE TRIAL”You will be charged immediately upon agreeing to a 3-day “free trial” as I was charged the same day within 2 hours of accepting the trial offer. I’ve requested a refund by Apple which was denied so unless you want to deal with this type of headache-bypass this app and look at others. This is a straight up SCAM..Version: 1.12

Won’t even let you try it unless you payI selected the “one-time use” option, and it still wouldn’t show me the results until I agreed to connect my card for a 3-day trial. Sorry, but I’m not willing to accidentally pay for a $30 membership just to see if this one mushroom in my yard might be poisonous. I know it says free trial, but I’m seeing other reviews claiming they got charged anyway, even after canceling within minutes. I’m out. How do you know it’s worth linking your card if you can’t even see the results first?.Version: 1.6
