Mushroom Identifier: Photo ID

Great quick take to narrow down mushroom ID. This has about an 80% accuracy rate, which is pretty darn good for an app; good enough to send me to the right place in my references. As we know, NEVER assume any app is correct; always check with reliable sources, do a spore print, and all the other things before making a positive ID. Question for developer: Will you consider allowing Family Sharing for this app? I want to educate my family about these wonderful gifts from Gaia and their having the app via Family Sharing would help tremendously. Thanks.

I just love all kinds of mushrooms. So I took to the woods with my new Mushroom app. Really cool! Some I knew but took pictures anyway. Then I found Honey Mushrooms and Aborted Entoloma mushrooms. Not sure if the Aborted ones are edible. But the Honey mushrooms were very good. Love this app, you gotta get it!!

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.
