Mushroom Identifier: Fungi ID

About Mushroom Identifier: Fungi ID

Mushroom identifier in your pocket: photograph any mushroom and the AI suggests the likely species, its edibility category, a description and the dangerous look-alikes worth ruling out.

IDENTIFY MUSHROOMS ANYWHERE

Point your camera at a find in the woods, in a field, on a lawn or on a fallen log. The identifier covers the mushrooms people actually meet — chanterelle, porcini, morel, oyster mushroom, field mushroom, puffball, shaggy ink cap, honey fungus and hundreds more — and it flags the poisonous ones, including death cap, destroying angel, fly agaric, false morel, jack-o'-lantern and false chanterelle.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Photograph the mushroom, or pick an image from your gallery.
2. The AI analyses the photo and proposes a possible species.
3. Read the name, the description and the edibility category.
4. Check similar species and read the safety warnings.

For a more accurate result, photograph the whole mushroom in good light. Show the cap, its underside, the stem and the base of the stem. A single photo may not reveal every feature needed for identification — spore colour, smell and habitat all matter.

ANSWERS IN SIX LANGUAGES

English, Estonian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Finnish and Russian — each with the common names local foragers actually use, not a translated Latin list. You choose your language the first time you open the app.

YOUR MUSHROOM MAP

• Save finds to the map and return to the same spots next year.
• Filter the map by species and edibility — see only the mushrooms you actually pick.
• Browse earlier identifications in history and keep the best as favourites.

WEATHER AND HABITAT

• Every find keeps its weather: temperature, humidity and the previous seven days' rainfall.
• In Estonian forests we also show the habitat — dominant tree species, site type and stand age from the Environment Agency's forest register.
• The AI takes the habitat into account when answering: a similar-looking mushroom under pine and under spruce can be two different species.
• Before you shoot, we suggest what to include in the frame for a more accurate answer.
• Pro gives unlimited identifications, more detailed answers and more look-alike species.

SAFETY COMES FIRST

The AI can be wrong, especially with young, old, damaged or similar-looking mushrooms, and deadly species can closely resemble edible ones. This is an educational aid, not an expert determination.

Never eat a mushroom based on an AI identification alone. Always have the species confirmed by an experienced forager or checked against a reliable field guide before eating. When in doubt, throw it out.

Identify mushrooms, save your finds and learn to recognise them more confidently.
