Re: Can you attach names to faces in photos using Seeing AI?

[PRAMIT BHARGAVA]

Hi Donna,

You'll have to initially identify the person before the Seeing AI app will
recognize the person independently. To add a person, select the Menu button
in the top left corner then select Face Recognition. This screen will
display the people that you have already identified. To identify a new
person, select the Add button. Initially the reverse camera will turn on
and the app will ask you to take three pictures of the person you would
like to identify. Either have the person hold the iPhone (as the reverse
camera is activated) or use the Switch to Back Camera button to take a
picture of a person in front of you.

After doing the above when you'll use the Person feature, the app will
announce the name of the person along with the gender, age, hair color or
characteristic of the person and emotion of the person. Also while takinga
picture, the app provides directional guidance you so that you can center
the people in the picture.

Hope this helps

Pramit

Re: Apple podcast episode length

[Brad Snyder]

I don’t like the Apple stock Podcast app that comes with iOS.  I think it is 
too cluttered and hard to find basic information like the length of a podcast.
I use Overcast.  I think it is much more straight forward and much less 
cluttered with nonsense.  It is free and available from the iOS AppStore.

Re: Apple podcast episode length

[Petrus Tuerlings]

I just did a search for random podcasts that I’m not subscribed too and you can 
open the podcast you’re interested in and find the more button, this should 
bring up a list of podcasts and you can use that same gesture flicking up or 
down to see if there is a details option.

Apple podcast episode length

[Phil Halton]

I just use the Apple iPod app on iOS for the first time and for the life of me 
I could not find any indication of the episode lengths. What am I missing? This 
is got to be a setting issue or something because there must be an indication 
somewhere of the length of a podcast.

Hi all,

I thought I read that you could do that, but using the app to recognize a 
photo, I'm not finding that option. Has anyone tried to assign a name to a 
picture of a person in this app? If so, how did you do it?
TIA,
