We were pretty impressed by how accurate some of the tags were. The app also gives you a quick snapshot of your photos (right). PhotoTime does a good job in using its image and facial recognition technology to populate tags (left), but it’s nowhere from perfect (middle). Using our Facebook friends list, PhotoTime was able to match photos of people in the iPhone against those in Facebook. PhotoTime used its recognition technology to determine that our photos were often of food or nature (and it was correct), but it’s also using other information like location. Depending on how many photos you have, PhotoTime can process the images fairly quickly or it could take a few minutes.Īfter photos have been processed, the app asks a couple questions about the types of pictures you like to take or where you like to take them, to create some bookmarks. The app crashed when we first tried to connect it to our Facebook account, but things went along swimmingly during the second attempt - no hiccups with Instagram.

After a quick download onto an iPhone 5S, the app immediately searched through the photos on our phone (after we gave it permission) and started organizing them. We’ve been playing with the app for a few days to see how it works. Essentially, the user no longer has to worry about moving photos around and grouping them – at least, in theory. When new photos that are similar are taken, PhotoTime automatically adds them to their appropriate bookmarks. Tap the bookmark icon on a group of images, and the app organizes them within keyword tags.
PhotoTime helps to bookmark groups of photos easily, as well. For example, if your friend Emily is tagged in a photo, PhotoTime will recognize Emily’s face in future photos taken, and automatically add the photo into Emily’s group.”īesides Facebook, you can also connect the app to Instagram, iCloud, and, soon, Dropbox. The more you use PhotoTime, the smarter it becomes – PhotoTime’s learning technology recognizes and groups similar faces in new photos based on every tag. With Facebook connected, users’ Facebook friends’ names are assigned to their groups automatically. “To search, users can simply type in the person’s name. “Built-in advanced facial recognition technology automatically groups faces that are likely to be the same person together, allowing users to assign a name and turn it into a searchable keyword,” according to PhotoTime. According to its developer, Orbeus Inc., it uses “image and facial recognition technology to instantly generate keyword tags.” Instead of having to scroll through images later, you can search for them using those tags. PhotoTime organizes, sorts, and tags all your photos as they are shot. As a result, photos are much easier to find. Enter PhotoTime, a new photo-management app for iOS that automatically does all the organizing for you. And with the way smartphone photo albums are designed, it can be a chore to scroll through all that content.
But because it’s so easy, you will have snapped hundreds – if not thousands – of photos before you know it.
See something you like? Just take out your phone and snap. Smartphones have made casual photography incredibly, well, casual.
