A new Google Photos feature will allow users to manually tag faces the app does not recognize. The idea to add the new feature was a result of a Twitter interaction in which a company representative asked what new features users would like to see added to the platform. Enough users indicated that adding a manual tagging feature would address any issues that may arise due to some faces not being picked up. Following the interaction, Google Photos says it intends to add the manual face tagging in the future.
It is not clear when the new Google Photos feature will roll out to the app or if Google Photos will incorporate other suggested features.
