TMA Fungi
With this app you can easily identify wood decay fungi by searching tree species.
Created using expert arboricultural knowledge this app is a useful tool for tree surgeons, tree officers, land managers and other industry professionals.
TMA Fungi features
Identify common wood decay fungi growing on or around trees
Search from a list of common and scientific tree names
Search for fungi by tree species and its location
View images of fungi to assist in identification
Useful information to further identify the specimen and its significance

This mobile app’ is intended to be of principal use for those in the UK to supplement ground-based or crown-based tree inspections for the purpose of health and safety. Therefore, we recommend that this app’ is used in the field setting, first and foremost. Whilst the means of fungal decay by different fungi stands to be rather uniform across the continent and more broadly the world, host-specific associations differ and climatic variations have an impact upon the speed of rot and tree defences. Therefore, for those using this app’ outside of the UK, please be aware that local information should also be utilised (i.e. publications from your country of origin).
Regarding the fungi detailed within this app’ and the species associations, this app’ covers the majority of routinely-found fungi and their associations with trees but is by no means a complete guide.
The information provided in this app is of a general nature. Specific instances of tree/fungi associations should be investigated by an arboriculturist.

Sorry Tim, downloaded this because the reviews were so good, but you can't zoom the pictures, so impossible to see them clearly, and you don't specify edibility!!
Helped leaps and bounds with college work and out on the job although it would be 5*s but there is nothing on edibility!!
Never got a chance to use i'll give it a neutral review.. Quickly became apparent that these are European species so this won't be useful for me in Canada. Should put that in the app description so people don't waste their time
Best app available to identify and spot fungi. Offers great details such as morphology stages, pathological impact on it's hosts etc
Really useful field guide, perfect for double checking and confirming species when I'm out surveying
Clear pictures and clear description. Good as an extra on site!
Really easy to use by far the best free fungi id app out there at the moment
Rather good obviously room for improvement but is the best app of its kind that I've found
Great app for quick id when in the field
Useful tool to aid tree surveys in the UK
Amazing app. Love it.
Great wee app 👍
This app is a wonderful resource. As an experienced arborist who wants to put to rest doubts about fungi I see every now and again, it's a great help. Easy to use and clear. I am part of a team who often reference this as a reliable source when in the field and cross reference it with identification books! Great work by the Tim Moya team! 😁
