Image search/facial recognition/keyword
Hello! I've copied all of the photos and videos from my iphone to dropbox- over 13,000 files. Is it possible (now, or in the future) to look for photos by searching by keyword? Currently I have them ...
Hi,
If you've already tagged your pictures, you shouldn't have much trouble sorting them. Regarding the recognition of content, I'm not sure if you expect the dropbox app to do this or you want to use any other software. But what is for sure is that once the copy is in your computer you could use any software you like to do that.
I have all my photos tagged. The web version of Dropbox cannot search or sort by tags. At least not that I've found. If you know a way around this , please share.
If you have Dropbox installed in your computer, you could access this folder with any software to classify and sort pictures. Then you could create a folder structure in dropbox that reflects the way you sorted your pictures. I think this is the easiest way.
I have the Dropbox folder installed and use it all the time to search my photo tags. My issue is with the website and mobile app. These DO NOT allow searching by tags. So with over 20,000 images it is a pain to try and find something specific. Using the Dropbox folder I can find it within seconds. Unfortunately this is not the case using the website or mobile app.
