Icon9 What's pointer in C++?

What is this really?
When I read it online, it says that it just refers to the memory location. But, when should we use this? How is it useful for our program? It looks pretty cool where we can access the exact location of a variable in a memory, but why should we care? shouldn't it retrieve it automatically for us each time we call the variable?
