Cepello — Mushroom Spot Map
Swiss mushroom zone map
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
The forest leaves clues. Cepello reads them for you.
For the species you pick, Cepello highlights every patch of Switzerland with a favourable biotope — then lays a weather verdict on top: "Good chances", "Possible", or not worth the walk today.
THE ZONES
For every 10 m square the app computes a score from 0 to 100 out of public data: relief, slope, aspect, forest type and tree species, geology, soil pH, vegetation belt. Each species has its own ecological profile, drawn from the mycological literature. The zones do not depend on the weather: they answer "where to go".
THE WEATHER VERDICT
The weather answers "when". Cepello combines the species' season, the rain of recent weeks and the forecast: enough rain followed by mild nights triggers a flush after a delay specific to each species. The flush index reads over 14 days.
THE SPECIES
Penny bun (porcini), chanterelle, morel, horn of plenty.
YOUR JOURNAL
Log your finds, with a photo and a position. Everything stays on your phone: no account, no server, and your spots are never transmitted. Export a backup whenever you like.
FORAGING RULES
Swiss cantonal rules and those of neighbouring countries, summarised, with a link to the official text that governs.
FREE AND PREMIUM
The free version shows the broad favourable zones. Premium shows every precise spot, what makes it good, and the 7-day forecast with the flush window.
WHAT TO KNOW
The zones are estimates: they show where the biotope is favourable, not where the mushrooms are. Cepello guarantees no harvest and does not identify mushrooms. Always have your pick checked by an official inspector before eating it.
SUBSCRIPTION
Cepello Premium comes as a monthly or yearly auto-renewing subscription, or as a one-time lifetime purchase. A subscription renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; management and cancellation happen in your App Store account settings.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Fixes a defect affecting every zone detail sheet on iPhone and iPad: the detail view reported "outside woodland" and stayed empty, even on the best biotopes, and the weather verdict never appeared.
Terrain data — elevation, slope, aspect, forest type, soil, bedrock — is read correctly again, and the 14-day flush index is back.
