I use seek by inaturalist for plant identification [0]. It claims to support fungi identification also, but I have not used it for that personally. It's a very popular app, so perhaps someone else will offer their direct experience using it with fungi.

- dunham 4y agoAbout two years ago, I posted mushrooms twice on iNaturalist (not Seek) and quickly got updates with a more specific identity from other users, so I think there is an active community out there. They were amanita muscaria -> american amanita muscaria and oyster mushroom -> summer oyster mushroom. The only non-mushroom confirmation / corrections I've gotten on iNaturalist were a spider and a snail. That said, it may be tricky to get a good identity on mushrooms. There are some varieties need spore prints or very careful attention to structure to identify.
