Note that this application can ask for permission to use your location, which is going to make it easier for your to report sightings as well as find observations near you. Use of GPS technology is subject to worsen your batterlife. Your location is secure and is not accessed by anyone, and are only shared with Fungal Atlas when uploaded as part of an observation.
Technologies such as automatic image recognition is never able to be completely precise, and it is therefore important that usage of the system is used in collaboration with an expert. Do not rely on these suggested identifications if you wish to eat the mushrooms you have found. Danmarks Svampeatlas (Fungal atlas) and Noque ApS disclaims any responsibility for any poisoning or other harmful health conditions.
