About The Mushroom Book
You are facing currently the best mushroom guide book available! Made by Poles, where mushroom picking is part of tradition.
Some of the many features:
• Brief descriptions of 86 most common edible, inedible and poisonous mushrooms.
• No Internet connection needed.
• Very friendly user interface.
• Identification based on the specie characteristics.
The Mushroom Book is an easy to use app that has a unique design which will make your device even more beautiful. The included descriptions of mushrooms are concise what make them easy to assume without unnecessary information that you will never need.
The content have been validated by mycologists who also suggested which photos should be picked. All that to help you enjoy the walks in the forests and protect the enviroment from unneccesary devastation of mushrooms that are not edible or are protected by law.
The app has an Identify Tool in which you can choose from a variety of visual and other characteristic features and thus reduce the list of mushroom species matching the criteria.

The pictures are very nice and clear. I wish you could zoom in. I couldn't figure out how to get the identify to work. Developer messaged me back about it. Great work.

If i go to the identify page it shows a couple of pictures, i assume that is some kind of menu, but i can not do anything there. So how is that supposed to work?

The identify tool doesn't work and is very limited on feedback for giving suggestions. Any combination I put in said no results. Plus there are very important things that should be added to the identify tool such as spore print color. Plus the lack of many species in the app makes me doubt it's accuracy. Just asking for shape of mushroom, if it has gills and if it has a universal veil or a partial is not enough to correctly identify a mushroom.

My family is picking up mushrooms for generations and my knowledge trust me is very good and this app description on some of the mushrooms is not accurate and state some of the mushrooms edible and they not. For example honey mushrooms they need to be boil first before frying cos they contain toxin what can make you indigestion. Second mushroom is fly agaric this mushroom is not poisonous it's simply an edible after a several ways to cook is fully edible and I rest my case

It doesn't really work on my latest android. When I try to identify it just sends me to the main menu and if I go for all information just crashes and closes.

Wish it had: where in the country it is most likely to be found; more info regarding what happens when you try to break the stem ie does it snap?, is it woody? stringy? etc. I'm new to mushrooming and need lots of help. Thanks for the hand up.

Many mushroom apps I've downloaded in the past have a very short list, but this one is well compiled. My only real complaint is that only a few of the poisonous ones tell you what it does when you injest it, and I don't mean if it's halluinogenic, because I don't care about that. I'm an artist truly interested in the mortality of humans and the suffering we can endure from our poor choices. Other than that, I love it!

Nice looking app but full screen ads pop up during use. And yes I'd rather pay to have no ads.
