Description

They grow in large numbers in forests and fields. Millions of them are hiding in the protective thicket and many withstand an eager collector. The common mushroom, dearly loved treasure in many kitchens. But once it's found, fundamental doubts replace the initial euphoria. What kind of mushroom is this actually? Is it edible, perhaps toxic, even hallucinogenic? A mushroom identification manual would be useful now - but who likes to crawl through the undergrowth with a bulky book?!


NATURE MOBILE has developed an app for all smartphone users that helps with identifying and collecting mushrooms - Mushrooms PRO. With more than *300* species and over *2000* high-resolution images it doesn't have to hide in the thicket. For each mushroom there is a comprehensive description and a selection of images of different perspectives and life tilt. Not only occasional collectors will have their fun with the app - mycologists will enjoy it, too, as the content of the app has been compiled by Dr. GERHARDT, author of many mushroom books and scientific publications about mycology. Dr. GERHARDT has been a long term employee and consultant of Mycology at the Botanical Gardens and in the Botanical Museum of Berlin.


SO HOW CAN A MUSHROOM BE IDENTIFIED?

You can choose from a variety of visual and other characteristic features and thus reduce the list of eligible mushroom species.


YOUR PERSONAL TRAINER!

* Learning* with a picture quiz. Polyporus Brumalis, Echinoderma Asperum or rather Armillaria Ostoyae? In case you don't know the right answer to a question, you still have 2 more mushroom lives to go. You can post your score in the high score board or via Facebook.


BUT... THERE'S NO INTERNET CONNECTION IN THE WOODS!

No worries, you only require connectivity for the initial installation and for installing updates so you can always use new features.

Good mushroom app

I need more time to give a good review,the app starts asking for reviews as soon as you use it.

Not nearly enough content.

The free version of this app includes only 20 species, which is not enough to discern whether it contains enough data to be useful. You can upgrade to the pro version for $9 but that only includes 300 species which is not even close to being useful. If the free version contained 300 species and the pro version contained good, reliable information on several thousand species, $8.99 would be a great deal. With 300 species, the pro version isn’t useful regardless of price. Too bad, because they layout and features otherwise seems pretty good as a reference to accompany a good photo ID app in the field.

NewbieAtIt

I’m giving this two stars mostly for effort and future potential. It’s difficult to navigate without a set of instructions. I expected to be able to download a picture and the app give me the best match, as my plant & bug identifier apps do. Instead, it’s left up to the opinions of other people using the app, which can be all over the map. IT NEEDS A PHOTO IDENTIFIER - BOTH NEWLY TAKEN AND FROM OUR LIBRARIES! Stop wasting my time with converting me to paying for your upgrade (that may be just as lacking.
