P: Please add face recognition

I am disappointed that there is no facial recognition in Lightroom CC. I am a professional Photo Organizer and I was hoping it would be a good alternative to Mylio and other programs for organizing client's photos. With facial recognition in other competitive products, it is a way to add lots of names as keywords very efficiently.
I scan client photos also, and I can't edit the capture date in Lightroom CC, so that is disappointing also.
This product still does seem promising as a way for my clients to view, share and enjoy their photos if I have organized their collection and applied metadata using other products such as Lightroom Classic.

Hi, very good news that this feature in finally implemented! 🙂 Also, the Apple Photos migration suits perfect to me. Thank you!

One question: During the import also the recognized faces of Apple Photos have been migrated. That's fine, but is there also a way to reset all migrated faces and run the process from the very beginning?

Thanks and kind regards

58GB out of 1TB and today Oct 18 nothing indexed yet. On the web version of Lightroom the people button is not even there as it is in the desktop version.

Most of my photos with people in have been indexed and show up in clusters just as intended. Great new feature. But some photos with people in are not recognised and some photos with more than one person only reference one person.

Do I just wait and will the rest be indexed in sure course. Seems unlikely especially as some photos with multiple people don't show all the people.

Wouldn't it be a good idea to have People in the keyword panel even if there aren't any - just a blank? Then one could add that photo to an existing cluster.
