    For identifying plants and animals, there’s an app called inaturalist. If you have an iPhone, supposedly you can use built-in tools in the photos app to analyze images in the current version of iOS.

    Imgops.com/upload

    From there you can hit tineye, yandex, google, and 🤮bing simultaneously. The order I mentioned those in is the order in which I try them depending on whether I'm getting my results
