Google's help section regarding Find faces says:Go to photos.google.com/search.Under the People section, click a person's face to see photos that include similar faces.(If you don't see the person you're looking for, click MORE.)When I go to the search section, I see Places and Things - no faces!And I'm sure I have faces, I used Google+ until now with plenty of face-tagging.Which also brings up an interesting point - how do you face-tag in this new interface?

It is possible to enable it by dialling into a US VPN (or going to the USA) and enabling the feature.I found out about it from here: https://www.reddit.com/r/androidapps/comments/37uepw/is_face_recognition_in_the_new_google_photos_app/On Android, you can download a VPN client and run all of the device communication through the VPN.On iOS, nute (the OP) travelled to the USA and enabled it there, so I can't currently confirm if the VPN settings work on iOS.Instructions:AndroidDownload the app Psiphon and activate it to a US VPN.Go to the Android Settings > Applications > Downloaded > Photos.Hit the clear data button (this just clears the local app's data, not photos).Sign into Photos (it should take you through the signup process).Go to the Photos Settings and hit the now showing Group Similar Faces button.Validate that people show on the device, or another client (web for example).Turn off and uninstall Phison (if you want).iOSActivate the VPN within Settings > General > VPN and set to a USA VPN(If you already have the Photos app) delete the Photos appDownload the Photos appSign into PhotosGo into Settings and enable the now showing Group similar Faces option.Validate on the device (or web app) that people now show.Disable the VPN if desired.
