recognize VS nc-photos

If ARM, see if this is the same issue: https://github.com/nextcloud/recognize/issues/688

Yes, you need to install the Recognize app (https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/recognize)

When you upload new photos, recognize should automatically schedule jobs to process them. You can check the ocjobs table in your database for recognize related entries and check oc_recognize*queue tables for files that have been queued for processing. Hope that helps.

I think this Nextcloud-App is using it: Recognize

For context Im wanting to set it up to use with Recognize in Nextcloud.

I already use recognize in my home NAS. It works fine but it's a NextCloud app (it uses tensorflow through face-api.js). I want something portable and easy to use similar to Google Picasa.

I haven't used them but there are a couple of plugins for NextCloud that do just that. Eg: https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/recognize

No because doing that on your phone for each and every photo is a bit too much to me, but you should definitely try the server side Recognize app and/or the Face Recognition app! Face Recognition is supported natively in the app and Recognize is supported indirectly via tags.

Sort of...not well. There is an app for NextCloud called Recognize [1].

It has gotten significantly better in the last year or so, but it's still pretty bad and pretty slow.

Try Photos NC https://gitlab.com/nkming2/nc-photos

Thank you, for all your work. It is amazing. I have one little suggestion though. Would it be possible to have it more connected with the Photos for Nextcloud (https://gitlab.com/nkming2/nc-photos) app? For example if your favourite images were the same in both apps. I believe a lot of people use Memories on web and Photos on Android, so it would be amazing to have it sync together. Thanks

Alternatively, there's also an Android app (but all the indexing is done on the phone, so it can be a bit slower)

I use the same setup and for a similar photo viewing experience on mobile I use ncphotos

I recently found nc-photos [1] which also aims to reproduce the Google Photos UX. It does its own indexing so it is a bit faster than the Nextcloud Photo Gallery but probably way slower than Photoprism. The main advantage of nc-photos is that no software installation on your server is required. It just works as a mobile app.

I was suggested ncphotos and so far it has been amazing and very simple to setup, you will however have to use Nextcloud and log in which doesn’t meet some of your requirements, through some configuration it can do face recognition and preview generation however.
