Memories

[djlexus]

How long has it taken for you guys to get your memories to show up? I've been running the beta for about 4 days now and I still don have any memories. I went inside the app it says loading yet nothing. I tried to load them on Sierra and I still have nothing.

For me, I can say it shows up just after a few hours, or "instantly" based on my feeling. And they are compiled together pretty good.

I can't even get it to too any of the ai stuff. It doesn't find faces or anything. I'm wondering if it could be my iCloud Photo Library. It's proven to be a problem in the past. Do we know if it uses the photos you have stored on iCloud or just the photos on your device?

I sync the entire library so I have no idea. There is no difference for me on this one.
Uh, maybe everyone syncs their entire photo library anyway? Maybe I am wrong.

I didn't sync my entire photo library but did the majority. Did not take very long before memories to pop up. Less than an hour for that and the people folder to download everything

As of beta 1, the UI is confusing. Faces appear in the albums section in the album called people, which is where other things like places also show up. As for how it works, your photos are never analyzed by Apple or sent to their servers (unless you use iCloud Photo Library or put the photos in a shared album, which obviously stores them in iCloud). All the AI Processing happens on your device wit the gpu (which is pretty cool if you think about it, though the abilities are limited by it not having the advantage of big data like a server based AI would). I used iCloud Photo Library too, and it took a few hours to process my 8GB library, but now it's all done and it does a pretty good job at categorizing photos. Not as good as google photos, but good for using an iPhone gpu.

What I don't like is that it picks up people that are in our pics from Disneyland. Total strangers from ride pics or people off to the side in pictures. Really annoying

Can anyone confirms that iOS 10's computer vision works on all iPhones and iPads compatible with iOS 10, or only the newest ones?

Not all.

A6 chip devices are left out.
