Google Photos Can Now Tag People Even if They Aren’t Facing the Camera: Report

Google Photos has has got a new trick to recognise people even though they aren’t facing the camera when the image was captured.

It seems to work quite impressively, but it comes with a catch. At the same time, Google has also started adding a new Cinematic photo effect to Photos.

The feature was spotted by Android Authority‘s Rita El Khoury. When she started getting suggestions of photos of her husband in the Photos app.

Her findings suggest that Google Photos managed to figure out that it was her husband based on the back of his head.

This applies not just to newly uploaded photos. But even those that may have been captured years ago and are stored on a user’s Photos backup.

Photos does not let users manually tag people whose faces aren’t facing the camera. This often meant that they had to be manually moved to a vacation or trip folder.
