FaceExplorer for macOS

Warning: Although everything should be safe, I am not responsible for any data loss - proceed at your own risk

Demo Image This project is my first macOS application in Swift. I like organizing my photos but became frustrated with the face-tagging interface provided by the default macOS Photos app. In particular, I found it hard to find "untagged" Photos.

I created this app to remedy this issue. During the process of reverse engineering the .photoslibrary database, I discovered that the Photos app has a wealth of information at its disposal regarding user photos. In fact, it predicts various attributes such as gender and facial expression for each face.

Key Features

  • View and filter all untagged faces in your library
  • Shows predicted attributes such as gender and facial expression for each face
  • Creating new albums with untagged faces or based on other attributes (thanks to @dxclancy!)
  • (Work in progress) Enables users to assign names to the faces right from the app. This is a bit scary because it requires writing to the photos library database.
