• | Face recognition — analyzes facial characteristics and uses reference photos to build a list of possible matches. People with similar characteristics are sorted into groups, making it easier for you to look through your photos and identify people. You can move photos between groups until all photos of the same person are in one group, and then type a name for the group to automatically tag all photos in the group with the name of that person. |
• | Manual tagging — lets you tag people manually in your photos. You can add multiple tags to the same photo, or tag objects or other areas of the photo with the names of people, to make sure that they are notified when the photo is uploaded. |
