P: Assign People tags to pictures that were missed

I really want to manually add Face tags too....   this would be a very handy and useful feature

Lightroom fails to recognize people on a fairly random basis.   Sometimes it can see every face in a group photo of 40 people, other times in does not recognise a face in a single close up portrait.    And this is when the person appears many more times than 5 in the collection.  The problem is if the app doesn't see a face (as a face) in an image you cannot add a people tag manually.    I see that many other users have complained about this - when will it be fixed

This thread is being merged into an existing authoritative thread for better tracking and response. 

I have many photos in LR where no face is recognized.  No little boxes around the face so I don't have the ability to add a name to the face.  Some of the photos simply have one person with a simple background and the face is clearly visible but LR doesn't recognize it as a face.

  We really need the ability to manually identify a face in the photo and to add the person tag.

Yes this would be really helpful.

Agreed. Rikk, Adobe, it’s time you start listening to paying customers.

Call it a bad decision, whatever, just add it to the next version or you're gonna lose subscribers

I could live with Classic not synching faces with CC if CC had the ability to manually tag faces. It does not so I have to stick with Classic even though I like CC better and want to use Sensei

Same issue for me.  Not being able to manually add missed faces is a major reason I'm forced to use Classic.
