Overall, pretty good for the basics. Nice lay out and simple to use. I haven't had a proper look, but did notice that one of the key ID features to differentiate the Blusher from Panther is not mentioned - the "pleats" on the skirt.

Great app just a pity it seems to be missing our most poisonous fungi. 5 stars if this is put right. ( Please inform me if I'm mistaken)

Great. I just relocated to Ireland and needed something real quick and this is pretty good so far. It covers a lot of groups of fungi and the only thing I lack (except for more species) is a simpler way to scroll within a group. Let's say I find a bracket, let me just enter that group and scroll through photos of the species and maybe I'll find what I'm looking for? But overall, a good app that I'm sure will improve. Thanks.
