Photograph a mushroom and get a full field description: species, cap, gills and stem, habitat, and the lookalikes it can be confused with.
WHAT YOU GET
Every identification returns six fields written the way a field guide would write them — the likely species, the shape and colour of the cap, how the gills attach and what the stem and base look like, where it grows and when it appears, the species it resembles, and notes on spore print and ecology.
LOOKALIKES, NOT JUST NAMES
Most apps give you a name and stop. This one names the specific species yours could be confused with — including toxic ones — tells you which physical features separate them, and says plainly which of those features are NOT visible in your photo.
THIS APP DOES NOT TELL YOU WHAT IS SAFE TO EAT
It identifies and describes fungi. It will never tell you a mushroom is edible or safe, because a photograph cannot show the features that separate an edible species from a deadly one — spore print colour, a volva hidden below the soil line, staining when cut, smell. Never eat a wild mushroom based on this or any app. Eating wild fungi requires in-person verification by a qualified expert.
