Apple's OS X photo apps have done facial recognition since 2009. This new thing is more advanced as well as a first for iOS, but I'd hardly call it a "big shift".
- philjohn 10y agoThe first is doing it on a mobile device, locally, without sending data to the cloud. That's pretty big, and only been possible recently with the performance increase in mobile SoC's.

- NEDM64 10y agoPrevious versions already did that.
- jdminhbg 10y agoPrevious versions did not do that on mobile devices, only Macs.
