People · Free · On your iPhone

Every trip, and who was there.

Ricordo finds the faces in your photos and groups them by person, on your iPhone. Name someone and every trip you took together comes back: where you went, when, and every photo of them, year by year.

Together

The people make the trip.

Years from now, the place will matter less than who was beside you. People keeps that part of every trip.

Who was there

Every trip shows the people in its photos, so a trip is never just a place.

How it works

Three steps, then it runs by itself.

  1. Turn on People

    In Settings, or from the People card in Search. Ricordo looks through your photos in the background, trips first. A big library takes a few minutes, best while charging.

  2. Name who you know

    Anyone who turns up in at least three photos appears. Give them a name and their trips come together. Faces you don’t know can stay nameless.

  3. Fix what’s wrong

    Review faces takes out one that isn’t them, Same as… brings two groups together, and Hide keeps someone out of People.

Private by design

Faces never leave your iPhone.

People is the most personal thing Ricordo does, so it stays on the phone in your hand.

Found on your iPhone

Faces are found and grouped on the phone itself. Nothing is uploaded, and there’s no account.

Names stay with you

The names you give stay on your iPhone. Ricordo never matches faces against anything outside your library.

Off means gone

Turn People off and every face, group and name is deleted. Your photos aren’t touched.

Free, for good

People is part of free Ricordo, with your atlas, search and postcards.

Questions

Good to know

Does it use the people I named in Apple Photos?

No. Ricordo finds faces itself, on your iPhone, so it works the same with any library. The names you gave in Photos don’t carry over.

Does it know who people are?

No. It only groups faces it finds in your own photos, and nobody has a name until you give them one.

Can I keep someone out?

Yes. Hide them and they leave People, while their photos stay in your library and your trips.

What about photos that are only in iCloud?

People reads the photos already on your iPhone. To include photos stored only in iCloud, turn on Photos stored in iCloud in Settings → Internet extras. They’re read on Wi-Fi.
