Find anyone in your Dropbox photos.

Faces, people, search. Your photos stay in Dropbox.

Read-only access. We never move, edit or re-upload your photos, and we keep only small thumbnails, face crops and metadata.

How it works

  1. 1

    Connect Dropbox

    Sign in with Dropbox and pick the folders that hold your photos. Read-only access; nothing is moved, edited or re-uploaded.

  2. 2

    We find the faces

    Every face is grouped with the same person's other photos. You see people, not file names, within minutes of the first batch.

  3. 3

    Search like Google Photos

    Name someone once, then search “Dad and Grandma, 2018”, or describe a scene: “beach”, “birthday cake”. New photos are picked up automatically.

Private by design

  • Your originals stay in Dropbox. We keep small thumbnails, face crops and numbers that describe faces, never your full-size files.
  • Processing and storage in the EU. Face data is used only to build your own People view.
  • One click deletes everything and revokes our access to your Dropbox.

Questions

Do you copy my photos out of Dropbox?

No. We read thumbnails through Dropbox's API to find faces and keep a small preview for the grid. Your originals are never moved, changed or stored by us, and “Open in Dropbox” takes you to the real file.

Can you change or delete things in my Dropbox?

No. The app asks for read-only permissions (account info, file metadata and file content).

How accurate is it?

Faces are grouped automatically and you review the result: merge two people, remove a wrong face, set a profile photo. The more you correct, the better the search feels. Children and old photos are the hardest cases.

How long does indexing take?

People start to appear after the first few hundred photos. A large archive (50,000 photos) takes several hours in the background; you can use the app meanwhile.

Can I leave and take everything with me?

Yes. “Disconnect and delete everything” in Settings erases all our data about you and revokes our access to your Dropbox. Your photos in Dropbox are untouched.
