Automatic photo recognition not working in Photos app

People are no longer being automatically recognised when I have new photo's. Has this feature been removed or have I done something inadvertantly and 'switched' it off.

Could you tell us please more?

What has changed in Photos since the object recognition has worked?

  • Is this happening on an iPhone, an iPad, or a Mac?
  • Which system version are you using on the device?
  • Die you install a system upgrade?
  • Did you just import new items, perhaps in an incompatible format?
  • Did you run any cleaning application to remove duplicates?
  • if you are using a Mac, did you move the Photos Library to a new location?

Tell us anything that might give us a clue what has been happening to your photos.
