### 4/5 — Encore un effort !

*2014-04-30*

Je suis un fan de champignons et utilise votre appli régulièrement. Bravo pour l'avoir conçue, même si je pense que vous pouvez encore faire mieux !
- augmenter la part des fiches en français
- inclure des recettes ?
- rajouter des photos (on en a jamais assez !)

### 4/5 — Complet

*2012-10-11*

Hormis le probleme de l anglais plus present que le français ; il est quand meme le plus complet de la liste jusqu a donner la quasi totalité des variété de psilocybes :P quand les autres n en donnent qu une

### 4/5 — Bon

*2012-02-16*

Avec un petit peu de connaissance en anglais et en botanique tout est clair !!!

### 3/5 — Bonne application mais...

*2012-01-13*

trop peu d'explications en français (moins de 1/3) . Dommage.

### 4/5 — Fungi

*2011-12-28, version 1.5*

A sound application and although I had some difficulty installing the application the level of support provided, even over the Christmas period, by Simon de Bernard was exceptional.

### 3/5 — Additonal features would be cool

*2011-08-23*

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.

### 3/5 — Good idea....

*2011-06-23, version 1.4*

An excellent idea, with lots of info available.  But identifying unknown mushies out in the field is not proving easy with this app.  I've tried a few times with no success.  But still, it's handy to have in your pocket for those you can identify.  People with better knowledge of botany and plant bits and pieces will do better than me, methinks!

### 3/5 — Best so far

*2011-05-17, version 1.4*

Nicely done!

### 3/5 — OK, bit difficult to use

*2010-11-28, version 1.4*

Nice graphics, but not great to id fungi in the field

### 3/5 — Pas mal mais besoin d'une maj

*2010-10-08*

L'appli est assez intuitif mais un autre menu avec un choix en fonction des especes et des lieux de ramassage ( prairie, bois) serait un grand plus.
La possibilité d'avoir des favoris serait sympa aussi^^
et biensur que ce soit tout en francais :p
Sinon c'est une bonne appli

### 5/5 — Super continuer a développe et a amelieurer

*2010-10-04*

Moi sur certain champignon la langue français et le nom de champignon en français mais je pence que ca va vnir avec des future mise a jours

### 1/5 — Wikipedia....?

*2017-08-22*

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.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2015-10-10*

Only lists 46 species of fungi...

### 1/5 — Bad App

*2012-06-04*

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.

### 1/5 — Bof !

*2011-12-13*

80% des fiches sont en anglais et les descriptions en français sont trop scientifiques.
Je n'ai jamais réussi à identifier aucun champignons.

### 1/5 — Hardly worth the price

*2011-10-16, version 1.5*

I have done a little foraging before and thought an app to help would be good. Settled on this one, wish I'd spent more and got something better.  It is just a standalone Wikipedia browser.  No usefull information that couldn't be found looking at Wikipedia.

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2011-06-06, version 1.4*

Very limited and eclectic range of species, some common and some I'd never heard of. Gives false identifications on most common species tested.

### 1/5 — Champignons

*2009-11-29*

Nul! Confus, pas pratique et en anglais. Si on a pas le dico on meurt sur place !! Zéro pointe.

### 2/5 — Déçue

*2016-10-21*

De nombreuses descriptions de champignons sont en anglais .
Quant à ceux dont la description est en français ce n'est qu'une copie de Wikipedia .
Pas tres heureuse de mon achat

### 2/5 — Frozen!

*2010-12-10*

Good app but now frozen on disclaimer 
Pease fix and I will write a better review

### 2/5 — Déconseillée en l'etat

*2010-10-17*

Moins de 35% d'explication en français   Manque couleur chapeau dans la caractérisation ce qui génère beaucoup d' erreurs, trop de couleurs possibles et trops proches pour les spores.... 
Application non mature 
A déconseiller en l'état, seul espoir........ Une prochaine version... peut être

### 5/5 — A good index to Wikipedia entries

*2018-11-10*

Uses the standard table of mychological characteristics in the Wikipedia entries to display entries based on observed characteristics you enter. Great idea!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2015-02-27, version 1.9*

I love it, would be nice to view pictures in a thumbnail form when searching but is so easy to use and informative

### 5/5 — Indispensable

*2014-10-22*

Excellente appli, très documentée et facile d'usage. Il manque une option "recherche".

### 5/5 — Excellent!!!

*2014-04-12, version 1.9*

Great app, simple to use, good accurate content. A must for anyone interested in mycology or just Mushrooms in general. Has proved useful to me on many occasions. With more financial support this app could become an encyclopaedia of sorts... Imagine :)

### 5/5 — Fungi

*2013-12-03*

Nice portable app. Lots of interesting information. Be careful when picking mushrooms and always use more than one reference.

### 5/5 — Really useful app!

*2011-06-01, version 1.4*

This is a fine example of a great idea, expertly coded, and with an agreeable interface. I have yet to find a fungus that it hasn't helped me identify, in the UK or in France. Excellent.

### 5/5 — Fungtastic!

*2011-05-15*

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.

### 5/5 — Fungi

*2011-01-31, version 1.4*

Mushroom Hunters Buy Now

### 5/5 — Very informative.

*2010-11-11, version 0*

Recommended app with good photos and in-depth info. This really is good!

### 5/5 — Excellent!!

*2010-11-03, version 0*

I've found this app to be amazing and can't see anything to complain about, especially for the price of it on such a specialised subject. 

Went searching for Fungi in the New 
Forest yesterday and identified all the Fungi I found from this great app!

Nothing to fault about it and would highly recommend!!
