How do I add photos to a pet/person

Maybe add a feature where you can click on review photos and then there’s a plus icon in a corner where it lets you add photos to the person

iPhone 5, iOS 10

Only Photos on a Mac has a tool to mark custom faces, that Photos has not detected on its own.

If you have a Mac as well and are syncing your devices with iCloud Photos you could add the missing face on your Mac and it will sync to your iPhone.


As a work-around, if Photos does not recognize the cat as a pet, type the name into the description field below the photo. then a search for the name will find this photo too. this will work in the most recent versions of iOS, not in iOS 10 as shown below your question.
