P: Assign People tags to pictures that were missed

I'm using the face recognition feature to organize family photos and it works fairly well when the face is in view. Obviously when the face is partially obscured or turned away, it has no chance. Is it possible to manually identify the people or person in the shot?

Example: my niece is chasing a ball across the yard. Where she's facing me and holding the ball in triumph, she's identified, tagged and this picture shows in her stack in the people view. When she's jumping up after the ball (facing partially away from me with her arm blocking her face), she's not and no feasible improvements Adobe makes to the Sensi recognition will help!

Clearly one solution is to create an album named for her, add these problem shots to it and all the photos automatically added to her stack but this seems redundant & cumbersome. Is there a better way?

So you are effectively implying that Adobe Lightroom product roadmap is being decided by engineers who think that they know more than their customers. (e.g. what I call the Apple attitude)

I state it this way because the Feb 2022 release includes the following functions:

• Intersect Mask: I cannot find a single request for this feature in the forums. It only shows up in discussion on usage.
• Export from a specific version: No references in online forums.
• Export using short side for maxium dimmension: No request found, work around existed (do the math and use the long side).

That is just an example. When you go back and look at what is in the releases, and you watch this forum. There is very to little to no correlation that I can find. Especially, when you consider I came from Classic which I used for close to a decade and that team actually addressed many customer issues, not all, but some. Here I see little to no progress on actually addressing customer comments; especially on core functions which are required to make the product actually useful.

What are the timelines for this feature to be reviewed? Please give us a roadmap or let us know that ther isn't one if that's the case. 

No updates here on this feature request.  Agree with you Tim that AI is best when supplemented with user interaction.

Any updates? It has been six months since you were going to "investigate".

Again a reminder, stop letting perfect be the enemy of good. drop the fricking AI, and allow for manual tagging.

I too would like to see this feature. I would like to be able to manually tag a person, even if their back is to the camera, etc., so I can find them later.

Any news here? I have a lot of people in my database, for me it would already be a huge help if I could selected unnamed / recognized persons and give them a name in the info of a single photo.

Down where all recognized persons are listed. Just allow us to tap and name them.

This would help with.
A: That I'm not going to find this person ever on my own in the large/complete unnamed persons list.

B: I could unclutter multiple persons LR thinks are the same by naming them per picture and not per group (as this is impossible, its different people in one group, I can never say that its "this person" because its multiple persons..

@parato sorry to hear you've had a rough time with your migration. If we can help, please feel free to start a new thread. I should, however, just clarify that the cloud-based ecosystem is not designed to be a replacement for Lightroom Classic. It's a different program with a different target audience. This is a very good feature request for enhancement of the current feature set, but they haven't "removed" any features. Lightroom Classic still has the features it's always had, and continues to be developed as a separate product. If you're missing specific features from your old workflow, then Lightroom Classic is probably still the best choice for you. 

Step 1.  Hire competent Product Management.  Step 2. Look at your own legacy products.  Step 3.  Compare.  Step 4.  Replace missing features.

Your first priority should be MOVE THE PRODUCT FORWARD NEVER BACK.  It's like getting new version of microsoft Work without spell checking.  How would you like you next car without seat belts?
