This app is very useful in identifying multiple items or signs that I don't know! A great tool to have. I have used it in Krazy bins, identifying animals, plants and even the buttons in a new car. I didn't know what circled A was in the car and it told me that it's for the automatic engine shut off when idling in traffic to save gas.
