## What is What's that mushroom??

Have you just seen a mushroom and want its name? What's that mushroom? is a field guide.

Find a mushroom in three ways.

Search. Type a common name, a Latin name, a family, or a genus. Search is free.

A photo. Take a picture of the fruit body. A mushroom in the book opens its page. A mushroom we have not written yet still gets a name, with a plain confidence and other candidates. One name is free before you sign in. A signed-in account gets five names each month, and a short advertisement can add five more. Naming a photo needs a connection.

The key. Choose the underside, where it is growing, and the cap colour. The underside can be gills, pores, ridges, teeth, pits, smooth, or enclosed. Mushrooms fruiting this month come first. The key is free.

Each mushroom has a page: names, how it looks, where it grows, a plate, and photographs. The sources are on the page. A name from this app is not a promise that a mushroom is safe to eat. Do not eat a mushroom because the app named it.

Seen is your notebook on this phone. A find keeps the photo and the date. You can also add a mushroom from a photo already on this phone. Share a confirmed find when you want it reviewed and shown as a public sighting. The notebook on this phone is free.

Book browses the same mushrooms by family, genus, and lists, including mushrooms of the year where a country keeps that list.

Pages are written in many languages. Where a translation is not ready, the page stays in English and the Latin name remains.

Field Guide is an optional subscription. It adds unlimited names from photos, no advertisements, and an offline copy of the whole book. Search, the key, the book, and Seen on this phone stay free without it.

Field Guide Monthly renews every month. Field Guide Yearly renews every year. In the United States the prices are $2.99 a month and $24.99 a year. Other countries show their price in the app before you subscribe. Both plans start with a 7-day free trial. If you subscribe before the trial ends, any unused part of the trial is forfeited.

Payment is charged to your Apple ID when you confirm. A subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. You can manage and cancel subscriptions in your App Store account settings after purchase. Purchases you already made can be restored.
