Face filters: let clients find people

• Standard plan and above

Face filters let Osvio recognize the people in a gallery's photos, so you and your clients can filter the gallery by person, for example "show me every photo of the bride". The feature is available on the Standard plan and above.

Turn on face filters

1. Open the gallery in the editor and open Gallery Settings.
2. Under Features, find Face filters and turn it on.
3. Osvio asks Enable face filters? Select Enable, or Not now to leave it off. Tick Remember for future galleries if you want the same choice applied to new galleries.

Osvio then recognizes people in the photos you upload. Clients see the people as filters in the gallery, and you can open People in the editor's top bar to review them.

Your consent is recorded

Recognizing people is optional and off until you agree. Quality checks such as focus on faces and closed eyes always run and never identify anyone.

Review people

In People you can check the groups Osvio has made:

• Unconfirmed faces lists faces Osvio isn't sure about.
• Merge combines two groups that are the same person.
• Set as cover uses a person's photo as the gallery cover.

Turn it off or delete face data

• Turning Face filters off stops recognition.
• Delete face data removes every collected face and person from the gallery. It doesn't change the Face filters switch, so recognition continues for new uploads unless you also turn it off. You're asked to confirm first, and this can't be undone.

Templates

• Love Story: face filters are off by default, which is a common choice for intimate genres.
• Boudoir: face recognition is disabled to protect client privacy and can't be turned on.
