Facial recognition

Facial recognition would be a useful tool in Dropbox. My Dad recently died and I had to quickly find photos of him for the funeral. I used Google Photos for this which has a photo recognition function but I have more photos in Dropbox so would have liked to have been able to search through my Dropbox files too.

    Just commenting because this is the only reason I pay for Google photo's, and have often considered switching to either one, but Dropbox wins in many other categories. But this feature would make working with Dropbox a dream!!

    Just wanted to share an update here that the team is actively looking into this functionality.

    There is no set timeline just yet but we'll update here with more info.

    Easier searching through files using facial recognition, great idea
