Tagging historical photos can transform your family tree into a masterpiece that will be cherished for generations to come and make your photo collection shine. Whenever you tag a group of photos, if an individual is tagged for the first time, a personal photo will automatically be created for them to enhance your family tree. Whenever you upload a new batch of family photos to your family site, as long as Photo Tagger is enabled, it will automatically scan the new photos to identify tagging suggestions. We suggest that you systematically confirm your tagging suggestions in order to make the most of Photo Tagger, and easily tag all or most of the detected faces in your family photos on MyHeritage.Įach time you open the MyHeritage app, you can pick up where you left off and continue reviewing your tagging suggestions.
