United StatesFungi is a mushroom identification application. Fungi allows you to search among more than 800 mushroom species using a dynamic description system based on hymenium type, cap shape, hymenium attachment type, stipe characters, spore-print color and/or ecological type. Selecting a mushroom from the list matching your criteria gives you access to its Wikipedia page, complete with available pictures, description, scientific classification, ... The complete Fungi database is included in the downloaded application providing full functionality where no network is available. WARNING: Correct mushroom identification is difficult. Do not ingest any wild mushroom until it has been checked by an expert mycologist.
A good index to Wikipedia entries
Uses the standard table of mychological characteristics in the Wikipedia entries to display entries based on observed characteristics you enter. Great idea!
United StatesWikipedia....?
Wikipedia? Really? I bought this app for you to tell me in the first screen that this information was compiled off of Wikipedia? To me that is not worth my money. Thanks, but no thanks. I can use Wikipedia for FREE.

Nice portable app. Lots of interesting information. Be careful when picking mushrooms and always use more than one reference.
United StatesBad App
This program is frozen on my IPhone. It will not open, it will not update it is an interference to the operation of my phone. I can not even remove it.
United StatesAdditonal features would be cool
I realize this app is just a reference at this point, but it would be cool to use as place to record data. Wish there was a way to keep track of fungi I've identified in the field. Maybe have a "basket" where you could keep what you just "picked", and provide info like date and location. Or just having the option of selecting favorites, would be a nice addition.
United StatesFungtastic!
I am a hiker, climber and fisherman and often run into mushrooms that I want to identify. This app Does exactly that. And unlike a field guide book, the app weights exactly nothing and has an interactive search engine. Great price for a great app.
