Mais l'intérêt de cette application réside surtout dans l'accessibilité (sans connexion) aux infos concernant l'espèce que l'on cherche à identifier grâce à une méthode simple de description du champignon ! Les espèces identifiables sont nombreuses grâce à une liste exhaustive en mémoire (690 espèces, bien plus que dans la plupart des autres applis, même payantes parfois). La présentation des fiches pourrait toutefois être revue (indication plus claire de la toxicité par exemple) et l'utilisation du français de manière systématique est très attendue. Une mise à jour s'impose donc, au moins pour laisser dans l'appstore une référence utile pour un mycologue amateur ou tout simplement un cueilleur occasionnel. Ce qui devrait être à la portée de l'auteur d'une autre application très appréciée par de nombreux professionnels ("médicaments") et autrement plus exhaustive !! Je mets 4 étoiles, gardant la cinquième pour ce jour futur... ### 5/5 — Fungi by Simon de Bernard *2014-10-14* Top app for anyone interested in knowing more about the wonderful kingdom of Fungi. ### 2/5 — ? *2013-10-03, version 1.9* En anglais, malgre son titre (et en latin aussi). En fait il faut deja connaitre les champignons pour se servir de cette apps. Interessant pour les erudits ou les pro (seulement) ### 3/5 — Peut être mieux si tous en français *2011-11-27, version 1.2* Si tous est en français alors 5 sur 5 ### 1/5 — Pas une application *2011-11-20, version 1.2* Simple fenetre sur le wikipedia, 80% des fiches st incompletes, et en anglais, safari fera plus ### 1/5 — Dommage!!! *2010-10-03, version 0* ...j'ai acheté la version ipad, dans la perspective d'aquerir un Ipad, un peu plus tard!!...le probleme est que je ne peux pas m'en servir sur mon Iphone4...alors que d'autres appli pour Ipad...fonctionne sur Iphone!!! si je veux avoir l'appli sur les 2 supports...faut il que je paie encore??? n'y a t'il pas moyen de regler ce probleme? ### 2/5 — Wikipedia aggregate *2010-05-31, version 0* It's ok... Not complete by any means and is only as accurate as the wikipedia articles it "appropriates". ## Frequently asked questions about Fungi Kingdom ### What is Fungi Kingdom?
