iOS 4 Feature: Faces

iOS 4 for iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G and iPod touch (excluding 1st gen) will be made available to all at no charge on June 21st, 2010.

In this installment, we’re going to take a look at a little feature called “Faces.”

“Faces” is also a feature in iPhoto ’09 and Apple is adding the integration into iOS 4. When you sync photos that have been tagged by Faces in iPhoto ’09, the Photo App in iOS9 will automatically organize those photos based on the names of the faces.

Of course you can also sync selected “Faces” into your iPhone through iTunes, but that means every single picture of the person tagged with Faces will be synced to your iPhone or iPod touch.

Learn more about Faces and iOS 4.

iPhoto ’09 is available for Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard and Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard.
