YOUR SPOTS. YOUR MAP. NOBODY ELSE'S. Mushroom Tracker is a private foraging map. Drop a pin where you find them, and the map remembers for next season — with no signal, and without ever showing another forager where you were. A PRIVATE MAP THAT WORKS WITHOUT SIGNAL • Save a spot in one tap, with photos and notes • Download a map region before you go; the map and your pins keep working with no service • Satellite and topo views worldwide (not available in China) • Public-land boundaries for US regions, so you know whose land you're on before you pick • Your pins are never shown on a public map. Back them up to your own account if you want them on a new phone SEASON ALERTS — KNOW WHEN TO GO • We watch soil temperature and rain at the places you've pinned • When conditions line up for morels, chanterelles, porcini or oysters, you get one notification • Quiet hours and a weekly cap, so it never nags HONEST AI IDENTIFICATION • Photograph up to three angles of one mushroom for a stronger match • Every result names the dangerous lookalikes to rule out first • Identification is a starting point for your own determination — never a verdict on what's safe to eat • Lose signal mid-scan? It's saved and identified when you're back in range A FIELD GUIDE THAT KEEPS GROWING • Hundreds of species with habitat, season and look-alike notes, updated continuously • Seasonal calendar: what's fruiting where, month by month • Detailed safety notes on the toxic species that matter A FORAGING JOURNAL • Every find, dated and mapped, building a record of your seasons • Badges for first finds, species and seasons • Export your data any time — it's yours Free to start: save your first spots, browse the full guide, try the AI. No account required. Go Pro for unlimited pins, offline map downloads, season alerts and cloud backup. Mushroom hunting, wild food foraging, mycology study — this is the map you keep for years.
