About these terms

These terms (the "Terms") govern your use of Mushroom Identifier, an iOS app published by Applied Intelligence Tools and Applications("we", "our", "us"). By installing or using Mushroom Identifier, you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the app.

What Mushroom Identifier is

Mushroom Identifier is an educational tool that uses on-device features and a third-party AI provider to help you identify wild mushrooms and learn about edibility and toxicity at a glance. It is intended for general interest and learning. Identifications are best-effort and may be wrong. Always verify anything important with a qualified expert or an authoritative source.

Important safety disclaimer

Mushroom Identifier is an educational tool. It is NOT a foraging guide and must never be used as the sole basis for deciding whether a mushroom is safe to eat. Many mushrooms are deadly and look almost identical to edible species. Always confirm any wild mushroom with a qualified mycologist before consumption.

License

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use Mushroom Identifieron devices you own or control, in accordance with the App Store's standard End-User License Agreement.

Subscriptions, free trials, and billing

Mushroom Identifier is free to download. Pro features (including unlimited identifications, the in-app mushroom assistant, and full history) require an active subscription.

Monthly subscription: $6.99 / month, billed once per month.
Annual subscription: $29.99 / year, billed once per year, with a 3-day free trial for new subscribers.

Prices shown above are typical USD pricing. The exact amount in your local currency, including any applicable taxes, is shown by Apple on the purchase screen before you confirm.

By subscribing, you authorize the following, in line with standard App Store rules:

Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase.
Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period (monthly or yearly) at the same price unless you cancel auto-renew at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.

You can manage subscriptions or turn off auto-renew at any time by going to Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions on your iPhone or iPad after purchase.
Free trial: if you start the 3-day free trial and do not cancel at least 24 hours before it ends, your subscription will automatically convert to a paid annual subscription at $29.99 / year. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited if you purchase a subscription before the trial ends.
Refunds are handled by Apple in line with their refund policy. Cancelling a subscription does not automatically issue a refund for the current billing period.

AI-generated content

Identification results, descriptions, and assistant responses are generated by AI models and may be inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date. Use them as a starting point, not as a final answer. We label AI-generated content where practical and encourage you to verify anything important.

User content

You retain ownership of the photos and text you provide to Mushroom Identifier. You grant us a limited, worldwide, royalty-free license to process that content solely to provide the features you request (for example, sending a photo to our AI provider to identify the mushroom in it). We do not use your content to train public AI models.

Termination

You may stop using Mushroom Identifier at any time by deleting the app and cancelling any active subscription via your Apple ID. We may suspend or terminate access to Mushroom Identifier or particular features if you breach these Terms or if we discontinue the app.

Changes

We may update these Terms from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top of this page tells you when. Continued use of Mushroom Identifier after an update means you accept the revised Terms.
