Tag Recognized People
Monument uses facial recognition to group together photos of the same person, but sometimes photos can be tagged with the incorrect person or not tagged at all. In this case, there is an option to manually tag that person only if the face has been recognized.
Note: Currently only available for iOS and Android.
Note: Tagging a person in one photo will tag that person in all other
recognized photos

There is no option about people in step 3 on any of the devices connected to my monument
@MichaelStacey
There are two instances when you will not see the people field on a photo:
If you already have an existing person and the photo has a clear face, please send us a message to support@getmonument.com and we'll be happy to investigate! :)
I have multiple pictures where no person is identified. The the "No People" option does not show when "Information is selected. That specific person has multiple photos where they are identified. Working in IOS. Some of the pictures are IMG Heir format. Could that be the issue?
@RonaldHord
Most likely, Monument was unable to recognize the same person in those photos. I am reaching out to you to further investigate this! :)
I have many many instances where faces aren't getting detected. I need a way to manually tag these.
Also, is there a way to tell Monument that something isn't a face? I have accidental faced too.
@EricShepherd
If there isn't an option to manually tag a person then Monument was unable to recognize that face. We have plans to include another manual tagging option for unrecognized faces.
For accidental tags (not a person), please either delete the tag if the person has already been created. If the person still hasn't been created/named, then deselect the photo before assigning the person a name:
Looks like the info you are showing above is from a phone. I am using Monument from my desktop iMac, and when I click where you tell me too, as with M Stacey's comment above from last November, there is no option to tag the single person in the photo.. whose face shows very clearly. Is this because the desktop is beta, and you haven't got this perfected for Macs yet? I really want to tag persons so they can join the tagged people.
@DarleneCrawfod
Manual tagging through the desktop app isn't available yet as it is planned for development. Our goal is to make the desktop app as fully functional as the mobile apps.
Currently, you will need to use the iOS or Android app to manually tag people.
How would I tag someone in a picture where the software does not recognize a face? ie the person is turned to the side but I want to add the photo to the persons People library.
Same kind of question for a picture that has more than one face\person and I want to tag them so it is in their People library?
How is it possible that a lot of very clear photos with known people are not recognized? And I mean a lot!
What is also strange is that when i want to manual tag the person, the suggestion the app gives me is almost always correct. If you can give a good suggestion, why dont you auto tag those images?
