Mushroom Id North America for Negative User Reviews

✓ Mushroom identificationI enjoyed this app in the beginning but was disappointed when I found several mushrooms with only one picture in one stage of its growth. I can at the very least describe in the detail section of the app the different stages of a mushroom. It's database needs to updated as I found several mushrooms not in the App..Happy and notVersion: 8.06

✓ Waste of $$ with wrong infoI just bought this ap and REALLY disappointed. The id pics are poor at best. All fungi id pics should include gills, stem and cap. Moreover, their edibility data is wrong on several species. The first one I spotted was Clavariadelphus truncatus, which is described as inedible, but in reality is highly edible with a sweet flavor. I would really like my $$ back- this is a bunk deal..NorthforgedVersion: 8.06

✓ Limited but goodI purchased this to identify edible mushrooms in my area. The first mushroom we found (in our backyard) was not in this applications database. It turns out it was Chlorophyllum molybdites, which is the most commonly consumed poison mushroom in North America. You would think this would be on the short list for species to put in the app, right? Anyway, still a good resource..RlbergerVersion: 8.06

✓ Database needs to be expanded and search feature should be improved.Stunning pics with a limited database. The search feature is pretty poor. The results produced did not match any of the characteristics I entered. The app is ok as it is now but has the potential to be much better. I hope they keep making improvements..AdrienneinaustinVersion: 8.8

✓ It's decentThe app is worth a few dollars as it is put to get her well and it works. My problem with it is coming across many mushrooms outside that I can't find in here. I would like more details as well. Why is something uneatable versus poisonous..TrepidusVersion: 8.06

✓ A little overpriced for the number of species5 dollars seems like a bit much when many of the categories only have one species. Very limited use..AaaallllyyyyyVersion: 8.8

✓ .... Really?The utmost information this app provides on edibility is "edible according to some sources". This is a completely useless statement. You really got to do better than that when it potentially comes down to life and death. Why not at least cite the ressources so everyone can judge their validity? My first ever app review since I thought this really to be upsetting for an otherwise nicely made app..UdoetzvjVersion: 8.06

✓ SucksI live in the boreal plain ecozone of Canada and there no relatable material. Besides that, there library is small. Not worth it!.NoBloodyBodyVersion: 8.8

✓ BasicPretty useless. Just buy a book or join r/mycology if you want to get into mushrooming. This app is junk. It has no useful information about territory of mushrooms, it doesn't list common names or useful scientific names. It doesn't tell you any details about stem, ribs or lack there of. It isn't extensive at all. I'm actually mad that I spent money and it was so well reviewed..Blarggggg83Version: 8.06

✓ Terrible! no instant photo id like other appsTERRIBLE! Don’t waste your money! Other apps let u snap a photo of mushrooms you find this one does not! Terrible mushroom ID! When i put in precise mushroom descriptions, its comes up with mushrooms that are NOTHING like i’m describing! If you try to userhis to ID mushrooms, it couldcost you your life!!!.Terrible App! Do not buy!!Version: 8.8

✓ Great app needs more contentIf only there were more mushrooms and descriptions in this app. Good idea just need to build it out more. Good work. I want something as visual as this just more complete..NotdsVersion: 8.8

✓ Not too goodThis app is lacking a bunch! It doesn’t have lots of very common mushrooms that you would actually find in the woods. (Turkey tail, chicken of the woods, only one oyster) It also does a very poor job of giving a good description of key features needed to identify some mushrooms. Also, why wouldn’t list the spore print color for every mushroom? That’s very important! I’m very disappointed in this app and feel like I just threw $5 in the garbage. If you are serious about identifying mushrooms, this app is not good..HoseA-guida loop AVersion: 8.8

✓ Ok but not greatThis is missing a ton of common mushrooms and really scarce in what it offers. It also doesn’t tell you where in North America you can find the mushrooms. Taking pictures and doing a google search for free is more useful..Kagerber23Version: 8.8

✓ Well madeSolid, nice pictures, nothing is edible without expert advice and either I’m the world’s leading discoverer of uncategorized fungi or their database for North America is rather incomplete. How about an upload for identification option?.Trend haterVersion: 8.8

✓ Incomplete guideIncomplete guide with very little information provided for each species. Not worth $4.99. Should be a free app until the app is fully developed !.ThisnicknamehasntbeentakenVersion: 8.01

✓ Not particularly usefulIt doesn't have nearly enough mushrooms in the database, the search function provides completely unrelated mushrooms, and the edibility rating is useless. Great idea, decent interface. Not worth anywhere near $5..AnkhetbastVersion: 8.06

✓ Great app (needs more)The app is a great idea just need more species listed and their ranges. Also if you could group them but Order, Family or Genus that would be much more helpful in ID’ing.OgnogVersion: 8.8

✓ Nice pictures, terrible for IDingI bought the app to help me ID mushrooms in the field based on criteria. I enter the criteria in the app and click the check mark and it displays mushrooms that clearly DO NOT MATCH MY CRITERIA. I say the mushroom is yellow and it shows me a blue one as the top match. I say it has decurrent gills and it shows me mushrooms with porous gills. I say it grows in conifer forest and it shows me mushrooms growing in grassland. When you enter MULTIPLE criteria, it should match ALL the criteria, not ANY of it. While the pictures are very nice and the info is handy, what good is it if you have to scroll through dozens of mushrooms to maybe match one in the search results? This app needs a lot more work to be useful. I certainly will NOT upgrade to the Pro version..HeliGalVersion: 8.06

✓ More than what I expected but...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.ScootSkootVersion: 8.8
