Quite handy. I'm having an issue adding identified mushrooms to the map. The ones I've identified are not available on the map list and when I try to attach pictures, it just thinks and never adds it. I also wish the identifier portion would include info on the mushroom, not just pictures. Other than those small issues it's been accurate in identifying what I've found in my yard. After identification, users should be able to add information to the database that's missing.

It's findings aren't always 100% accurate but it's pretty good! And, if it's wrong, you usually find the correct species in it's list of look-alikes! Been using the app for quite some time now. It's like going to a friend who knows a lot about mushrooms but like anybody, isn't perfect. And that's okay because the app itself tells you to double check it's identifications with a professional as the creator(s) know it's not perfect. And that my friends, is respectable..

I've been collecting wild mushrooms for 30 years but I haven't tried an automated identification app before. I tested it on a series of fresh mushrooms that I was certain of. Despite being in the beta stage the photo identifier worked every time. This especially amazed me because there was no reference ruler or size scale in the photos. Nice app!
