About this app

Identify Fungi Fast with Shroomify. A must for mushroom identification.

Mushroom ID made easy, by selecting the characteristics of the fungi you would like to identify the in-app algorithms work out the most likely matches.

You can also view the 'Top 20' of the month which lists all the common Fungi you can find in the month you are in.

If you are a keen mushroom forager / hunter then there's lots of useful info, including the edibility of all mushrooms listed and a list of good edible mushrooms that grow in your country.

The app comes pre-loaded with over 400 common Fungi and over 1000 images.

When you open the app your position is used to load a relevant dataset to show just the mushrooms that occur in your country or region. Graphs and country ranking are also shown for each individual fungi to help you see how common it is and when in the year it is most common.

Ratings and reviews

Needs a 'back' button. I like the small illustrations on the different filter choices. However, as a newbie I don't have an eye for it and many characteristics, like color, seem to fit somewhere between 2 or 3 of the possible options. Therefore, I'd often like to go back and change my filter, but cannot, and have to start over which gets annoying.

What a lovely app! I almost skipped downloading it because the title says it is for USA. I was very pleasantly surprised to find it had a dataset for northern Europe! Nice looking app, well-chosen photos. Easy to navigate to what you want, also easy to explore and browse. Even the foraging tips held some helpful reminders for me. (Bring a mirror, for example.) I couldn't believe this wonderful content was free. I would happily pay to support more updates. Thank you very much to the developer!

Incredible app, very easy to identify mushrooms and I've found some really good ones already in the Allegheny Mountains! Instantly bought Premium as soon as I started using it, figured even if it didn't give many features it was worth a tip. Previously I spent a lot of time on Google and that's quite difficult because the mountains where I go for my nature fix rarely have cell service, and when they do, it's very bad, too difficult to see photos, only text. This app appears to work offline!
