Ratings and reviews

I can only speak for 'Liberty Caps' but great tool if you have zero knowledge of hunting mushrooms, gives a fairly accurate prediction of where and when and by the looks of it has incorporated the UK Soilscape Maps which is very good in itself. The previously 'found' locations I'm sceptical of as there are a couple where I know for certain they are not growing that show as being there and vice versa.

If this truly is the new version of the Magic Mushroom Map, then I'm hideously disappointed. I'm not interested in other mushrooms or I'd have downloaded a different app initially and so I don't need them here. The colour scheme is green not red, which makes it look faded out and unfinished, plus the map coverage isn't even a fraction as good as the original. The laws of thermodynamics state that everything gets destroyed eventually, this app included.

Good app! Almost great, my few holdbacks are the gradient bar having a border. The border blocks you from accurately colour matching to the map. Next would just be the small variety of species available on the app. I understand it's still early days and look forward to seeing it develop. Keep up the good work!
