Honestly, Seek by iNaturalist has saved me a few times. Imagine being in the middle of nowhere in the Scottish Highlands and wondering what that funky-looking flower is? Just whip out the app, and boom, you're sorted. It even works offline sometimes, which is grand when you're trying to avoid data charges while roaming in, say, rural Italy. I've used it all over, from identifying spiders in my Dublin garden to weird mushrooms in a forest in Slovenia. It doesn't eat up your roaming data too much either, which is always a bonus. Plus, it makes me feel like a proper explorer, even if I'm just wandering around a park. It's helped me become less scared of bugs, which is always a plus!

"This app is one of the most useful apps I’ve ever had it sometimes tells u if certain plants or animals are poisonous/venomous and even gives you badges for certain things u take pictures of."
