A private, offline foraging journal & log — remember every patch. No ads.
About Forager's Field Notes
Forager's Field Notes is a private foraging journal and field log — a fast, offline place to remember every find and every secret patch, with deterministic seasonality insights built only from your own history. No account. No ads. Your spots never leave your phone.
This is a foraging journal, not a plant or mushroom identifier. The app never identifies a species and never tells you anything is edible or safe to eat. You are the forager; Field Notes simply helps you remember, learn, and stay organized — and puts every decision, and the responsibility for it, with you.
LOG A FIND IN TWO TAPS
• Record your own name for a find, plus category, quantity or yield, habitat, notes, photos, and the date
• Drop a GPS pin only when you choose — there is no background location and no tracking
• Browse your whole journal, newest first, on this device
REMEMBER YOUR PATCHES
• Save a secret spot once and attach finds to it
• An offline, tile-free patch map that works in airplane mode — nothing to pre-download, no grace period, no signal needed
• Your locations are yours alone and never leave the phone
A SAFETY LAYER THAT NEVER PRETENDS TO IDENTIFY (always free)
• A "confirm, don't identify" checklist walks you through your own observations before you trust a find
• Offline deadly-lookalike cards help you rule a find OUT, with the toxic twin named so you can disqualify it
• A clear, always-visible safety disclaimer keeps the decision — and the responsibility — with you
FORAGER'S FIELD NOTES+ (optional upgrade)
The intelligence layer, built only from your own logged finds and running 100% on your device — no model, no network, no key:
• Seasonality forecasts — when your finds typically appear in your spots, and whether you are in the window now
• Patch-return reminders — back to the right spot at the right time of year
• Your foraging year recap — finds, species, best month, and top patch
• Bulk offline-map caching and unlimited patches
Logging, your offline patch map, and the entire safety layer stay free forever — no card required.
HONEST PRICING
• Annual: $19.99 per year, with a 7-day free trial
• Monthly: $3.99 per month
• Lifetime: $39.99 once
All three unlock the same Field Notes+ features. Billing is store-managed — cancel anytime in Google Play. Prices may vary by region and are shown in the app at purchase.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No account, no sign-up, no cloud backend
• No ads, ever
• No background location, no tracking
• Works fully offline, in airplane mode, forever
A foraging diary and log book that finally remembers where and when — great for mushroom foraging, wild edibles, herbs and greens, berries and more. Keep your foraging field notes for 2026 and every season after.
Important: Forager's Field Notes is for recording and learning only. It does not identify species and does not assess whether anything is edible or safe. Never eat any wild find based on this app; always confirm with a qualified local expert and reliable references before consuming anything you forage.
