That's correct, there's plenty of incorrectly identified plants, but the app says 89% accuracy for the first result and 11% for the second, so it's hard to argue. I've many times encountered plants that don't in live in the UK but the app say they do.

Inaturalist uses GPS and date to help with this. So it shouldn't show you stinging nettles in November.

The high accuracy results are not always, well, accurate. Several times I've had an 85+ percent result then looked closer and gone "ah shit, the leaf pattern is wrong, these are alternating instead of side-by-side" or similar.
