Too buggy

I wish I liked it, but this app is just too buggy. I don’t know how other people use it. It won’t delete my items (hangs), it won’t let me rename it, support is not helpful saying they can’t reproduce. I tried to log out and log in again, and it won’t even accept my password anymore. Sooo buggy

Response from developer

Hi Grigory- sorry we weren’t able to get these issues sorted immediately. We were still investigating, and we’ve since released some stability updates that may address what you experienced. A quick “Forgot Password” reset should restore access to your account. Please reach out through in-app support anytime, and we’ll be glad to keep working with you.

Frigging Awesome

This app is great and the developer is on it with support. Very responsive to feedback. Has everything I need and the labels are the super convenient. Great job.

Get it

This app is absolutely amazing even for free for a small grow. If I was doing anything medium or above this would be an instant subscription and even more useful.

Dope…

Yep. Highly recommended. This app is def helpful in organizing and Keeping track of my mycology projects. If you grow… this app is def gonna be your best friend

Great app

Took a little bit to get used to the app but it has really helped me organize genetics, and monitor my grows

Pricing is outrageous

Honestly this app would be cool and convenient. It takes a semi-annoying task and makes it easier and easy to check on your phone. The fact that they wanna rake you over the coals for $25 a month if you have more than 75 active items between agar plates or liquid culture is absolutely ridiculous up until they added the pricing. I would’ve recommended this app but for the price point. Get yourself a pen and paper.

Response from developer

Hey, sorry to hear you had such a negative experience with MycoFile. We’re in the process of reworking the limits to be based on new items per month so the $4/month plan comfortably covers personal use. The current limits were intended for commercial growers managing larger volumes, and they don’t always map well to setups with things like prints, syringes, and plates. When that update is live, it should be a much better fit if you decide to give it another try.

Can’t get it to load

I paid for the app now I can’t get it to load! It needs an update for the newest IOS.

Response from developer

Sorry about that! This issue is fixed in the latest update.

App doesn’t work :(

I tried to install this app but after signing in it starts loading forever, same for my friend

I never leave reviews. But…

This app is so good. I wish I had this a year ago. It’s such a pain to keep track of everything. This makes tracking so easy and fun actually. If you grow mushrooms. You need this. So worth it.

Comprehensive App

Including bolts to this app is a great addition!

Great app

Great app for mycofiles or small farms looking to organize and track. Unsure how the colonization circle graphs works despite strains colonizing at different speeds but appreciate the visual representation nonetheless. Great stuff

Amazing and Must Have

Amazing app for both the hobbyist and gourmet business. I can track lineage back and forth. I can keep track of supplies and get notified when I am running low. I can basically do everything I was attempting to do with a notebook and spreadsheet.

Plus I can print labels that attach to the item in the app and scan and update statuses almost intuitively.

Edit: 11/5/25 I just want to say that after having a few problems and going back and forth with the creator via support…

The customer support with this app isn’t just among the best in the business it has to be THE best. Like it’s utterly confoundingly good.

For the customer service alone I hope mycofiles creator makes a small fortune because this app sure is what the world of mycological cultivation needed.

I had a problem with my thermal printer and a couple other questions and was answered so promptly I was a little startled. Overall I couldn’t be happier. Five stars and I’m a subscriber. I never subscribe.

Exactly what I’ve been searching for for years!

TL;DR: Get it. You need it. It's absolutely worth it.

If you're a small-scale gourmet mushroom farmer, you need this app!

Years ago, I was using Airtable to try and build something like this—but without coding skills, it was basically impossible. This app does it all for you. It lets you track and document every step of your grow, from spores to harvest, and automatically generates individual QR codes for every single item.

You can print those codes directly through the app or export them for printing, which solves one of the more frustrating problems I ran into before finding this.

Also, I’ve got to shout out the in-app support—it’s fantastic. Messaging them gets you quick, helpful responses every time.

Sure there are going to be little things that every farmer may wish were a little different and more customizable—however it’s the closest to a one size fits all product. I can’t wait to see what features are added down the road. Keep up the amazing work! TL;DR: Get it. You need it. It's absolutely worth it.

MycoFile Mushroom Grow Tracker

Whether you’re a beginner cultivator or running a full-scale mushroom farm, MycoFile is an absolute game-changer.

Developed by Mycosoft LLC, this app is built by someone who clearly understands the real needs of the cultivation community. The layout is clean and intuitive, but don’t let the simplicity fool you, it’s powerful and deeply thought out.

What stands out:

Label Generator with QR Codes
We use MycoFile to label all of our jars, tubs, and cultures. The QR codes link directly to our grow data, no more guessing what stage something is in or flipping through notebooks. It’s all centralized and accessible.

Track Every Stage
From agar to fruiting, every step of the process can be documented. You can visualize your entire lifecycle at a glance. It’s like having a digital grow log that works with you, not against you.

Built to Scale
This isn’t just a hobbyist tool. You can expand your use to cover your whole farm. It’s flexible enough to support deep tracking for large setups, but still streamlined for home cultivators.

Affordable and Well Maintained
The app is lightweight (60.2 MB), updated regularly (most recently version 2.2.8), and it runs smoothly. The pricing is extremely reasonable, especially considering the level of functionality and how much it simplifies our operation.

App Overview:
• Developer: Mycosoft LLC
• Category: Productivity
• Language: English
• Device Support: iPhone & iPad
• Rating: 4.9 stars (based on 30+ reviews)

This app deserves far more attention in the cultivation community. MycoFile brings a level of organization, professionalism, and ease that most growers don’t realize is even possible. It’s helping us stay on track, save time, and keep our entire operation documented and efficient.

To the developer—thank you for creating something so valuable. You’re supporting an entire culture, and it shows in every detail.

Great app for mushroom growers!

I'm fairly new to mushroom cultivation, and this app is helping a lot with organizing and keeping track of my grows so far! I'd highly recommend it for anyone taking part in the hobby or growing commercially. I'm a little surprised it's not used more frequently given how useful it is.

I do wish that you could edit activity though; sometimes I accidentally click the wrong thing, and it's stuck in the activity log forever. (Example: I meant to set a grow to "colonizing" but accidentally set it as "colonized". I fixed it, but "colonized" is in the activity log and can't be removed.)

I also wish that you could bunch items together—I didn't know what it meant by "batch" and put some items in individually that I wish I had put together, so now they're named a little off in terms of numbers.

Overall this is a great app, and I'm looking forward to how it might improve in the future. The issues I have are minor quality-of-life issues, and the foundation is very strong.

Indispensable tool for the hobbyist and for the hardcore grower!!!

I was an early adopter - I needed a way to keep track of my grows, supplies, ratios, recipes, and much more!
Customer service is awesome - any questions or requests are answered typically in less than 2 hours!
Lots of features and they are open to adding requests on how to improve their products! They support phemomo label makers so you can generate labels.
It keeps tracks of info such as harvest weight, dry weight, supply inventory and countless other features. There are many other features that I am unable to list at the moment. I’d rate them over 5 stars. This program is definitely worth it. Kudos to the team! Mush love!
