Each place you've marked has its own page, and it's not a list of finds: it's the profile of that forest. From there, you can tell the app how much rain it actually received, read which side of the slope it faces, and see if anyone has been in the area this week. It opens from the home page or the calendar by tapping the name of the place.
Fix the rain: your data wins over the model
Weather cells are kilometers wide. In the Apennines, the same cell encompasses the valley floor and the ridge: a forty-millimeter thunderstorm can hit one side and stay dry on the other. The model reads the cell; you were down there.
On the location page, choose the day and say how much water actually fell. What you say beats the model, and that forest's score takes it into account immediately—not the next day. It's free, on both plans, and remains the fastest way to make a prediction yours. We've discussed it in detail in fix the rain.
How is the place made: exposure and slope
Under the name of the forest it is written which way does the slope look? And how steep is itThese are just two lines, and they're worth a look:
- The nord it retains moisture longer: in summer and in dry years it is where it continues to be found;
- The south it warms up first: in spring and late autumn it starts first;
- on a very steep slope steep the water runs away, and the rain itself yields less than in a drainage basin.
There is also on the map «Seats side»Color each find according to how it looks at the slope. After a season, you can see at a glance which slopes pay off—something you already knew, but without ever seeing it all together. Free.
Around here: a number, never a place
The question we all ask ourselves on Fridays: did anyone go there? On the place page, Around here says how many exits there have been within ten kilometers in the last week and the last two, and how many have found the mushroom you are following.
It must be said precisely what Not It is. You don't see where anyone has gone, you don't see a name, you don't see a place: you see a number, around a forest that is already yours. And the number appears only if there are at least three peopleBelow that threshold you can't remain anonymous, and then the app goes silent.
It serves one important purpose: to understand whether the season has truly started or whether it's just the weather. It's free for your first subscription; with Premium, it's valid for all subscriptions, and on Friday evenings, you'll receive the same bill by notification.
From the profile Choose whether your expenses go into the account that others see: always nameless and unaccounted for. If you turn it off, everything stays the same for you.
Lend that forest to a friend · Premium
Always from the place page, you can lend it to one person: he sees the forest and his prediction, not your findings. One person at a time, and you can collect it whenever you want. We'll talk about it in lend a forest to a friend.
Frequently Asked Questions
If I correct the rain, what changes?
The score for that location is recalculated with your data instead of the model's, immediately. This applies to that forest: the others remain as they are.
Does “Around Here” show me other people’s places?
No, and it doesn't happen in any plan. It's a count of exits within ten kilometers, without names or locations, and it only appears if there are at least three people.
Can I not appear in other people's accounts?
Yes, it turns off from the profile. Even when it's on, all that's triggered is the fact that an exit occurred in a certain area: never the name, never the period.
Does the app calculate the exposure or do I write it?
The app calculates it from the ground, which reads thirty meters away: the slope and the general gradient are visible, but the ten-meter-wide rock drop is not.
