Use case
Save mushroom and berry places with Pean
Pean helps foragers remember exactly where they found mushrooms, berries, and herbs. Save patches from Apple Watch or iPhone in one tap, keep them private, and return to the same spots every season.
Save from the field
When you find a productive patch, you do not want to lose your place scrambling for your phone. Tap once on Apple Watch to capture the GPS location instantly — hands stay free, your spot is marked.
From the iPhone app you can add a photo of the find, a note about what was growing, and the exact category. The full context is saved with the coordinates.
Dedicated categories for foragers
Pean has separate categories for Mushrooms, Berries, and Herbs. This lets you keep different types of finds organized on the same map and filter to see only the type you are looking for on any given day.
Return across seasons
Good foraging spots produce year after year. Pean stores exact GPS coordinates for every saved place. Come back next autumn and navigate directly to the same patch — even if the landscape looks completely different without the summer foliage.
Offline in the forest
Dense forest canopy often blocks cellular signal. Pean saves places locally with no signal required and syncs them when you are back in range. GPS positioning uses satellite signals that work under tree cover where cellular does not.
Your patches stay private
A good patch is worth keeping to yourself. Every place you save in Pean is private by default. Your map is not visible to anyone unless you choose to share a specific spot with a person you trust.
Common questions
Can I save a mushroom patch from Apple Watch?
Yes. One tap on Apple Watch saves your GPS coordinates instantly. No need to take your phone out of your pocket.
Can I add a photo of what I found?
Yes. From the iPhone app you can attach photos to any saved place. This helps identify the spot and what was growing there.
Does it work in the forest without signal?
Yes. Pean saves offline and syncs when you reconnect. GPS works via satellite and does not require cellular signal.
Can I keep my foraging spots private?
Yes. All places are private by default. Nobody can see your spots unless you explicitly share them.
Can I organize mushroom spots separately from berry spots?
Yes. Pean has dedicated Mushroom, Berry, and Herb categories. You can filter the map by category to see only one type of find.
