Find a person through their photo

See below how to find a person through their photo with the help of platforms that are capable of searching the web quickly.

So, with tools like TinEye and Google Images, which using the reverse search method, a person can easily be entered.

The aforementioned method consists of using a photo, through which a comparison is made with other images and the result is similar to the images.

The user only needs to make a few clicks to perform the action.

But for such a search to be effective, the person sought by the user needs to have at least one public photo on the internet, such as on social networks.

As mentioned, this application can only produce satisfactory results if the person whose photo is being used in the research has another public photo or photos online.

The Google Images platform only allows this search via a computer.

2. Now, click on the “Search by image” option, the one with the camera icon;
3. Send the person's photo, and you can upload it from the gallery or send the URL;
4. To send the photo in the gallery, click on “Send an image” and “Choose file”;
5. If the result is “No results found for the selected area”, go to the “Find image source” option. This way, the platform will show the pages where the photo is located.

Furthermore, on the cell phone, the user can use the app Google Lens to perform this search.

You can also search directly from the Photos app.

It also has the advantage of being able to be used on a cell phone or tablet.

Using the tool, research will also be carried out using the reverse method, making comparisons with other images on the internet.

When TinEye finds a similar image, it will show you when it was first found and show its online link.

These characteristics show that TinEye is a good image search platform.
