Your mobile foraging journal and much more. Spot your finds with AR or Camera, build a personal field guide by taxonomy, track every species through its harvest window, and return at the right time.
Capture
Tap New Find and choose how you want to capture: AR Spotter sweeps the phone over the ground and drops a pin where you tap, or Camera snaps a close-up and tags your location automatically.
Either way, GPS, altitude, accuracy and a geohash are written into the find at the moment of capture — no fiddling with coordinates, no re-pinning later.
Toggle “Always ask” if you want to choose every time, or set a default and skip the picker.
Codex
Every find becomes a catalogued entry — name, photo, taxonomy, the place you spotted it, and what was happening around it.
Filter by type — berry, fruit, herb, mushroom, nut — or drill into a single species to see every place you’ve ever pinned one.
Nothing is imported from the internet’s opinion. Your codex is made of the ground you’ve actually walked.
Calendar
Set when each find should be ready — pick a date and time, or jump to Dawn, Dusk, or Now without typing.
Forager’s Fieldbook surfaces those reminders on your calendar in three plain-language states — Ready Soon, Harvest Ready, Past Ready — colour-coded so a glance tells you where to go.
Tap any reminder to jump straight to the find, its location, and the pin on your map.
Trips
Start a trip and the app logs distance, duration, elevation and a breadcrumb of where you walked.
Drop a pin with +Find anywhere along the route and it links automatically — pinned right on the satellite view of where you actually were.
Every trip stacks into a season-long catalog. Glance at the list to see route shape, distance, elevation and find count, then drill into any one for its full summary.
Yours
Set the defaults you’d otherwise fight with mid-forage — units (mi or km), the taxonomy types you actually forage, map style, and how harvest reminders surface.
Your finds, trips and reminders sync across every device you sign in on. Your fieldbook follows you.
When you’re done, delete your account right from Settings. Everything you’ve created is wiped from our active databases — no support ticket, no email chain.
Who it’s for
Morels, chanterelles, chicken-of-the-woods. Pin a patch in AR this spring; the app pings you when it’s worth walking back.
Build an ethical harvest map of your own making — species-by-species, patch-by-patch, season over season.
Keep track of every stand of yarrow, plantain or bee balm you’ve confirmed, with the taxonomy backed in.
Not here to forage? Use Forager’s Fieldbook as a geolocated nature journal — each find is a moment, pinned.
Features
Every feature is designed to work one-handed in the woods — fast capture, readable glanceability, and the privacy of a journal that lives on your device.
New Find
A native AR view captures GPS, altitude, accuracy and geohash with the photo — the exact spot, baked into the pin.
Your field guide
Finds are catalogued by scientific taxonomy across berries, fruits, herbs, mushrooms and nuts. Your own, species-by-species.
GPS-tracked
Record a foraging walk with waypoints, distance, elevation and duration. Finds logged en route link back to the trip.
Harvest-ready
Each species has a seasonal window. Finds surface as Harvest Ready, Ready Soon or Past Ready — no guesswork.
Everything in one view
All your finds and trip routes plotted together. See your territory grow season by season.
A private field guide, grown from the ground you walk. Forager’s Fieldbook is launching soon on Google Play and the App Store.
