Hey guys. I'm having trouble navigating to the old interface where you simply upload a photo and it tells how much % you look like a celebrity, but now it seems all I get is this page http://puu.sh/21oFW (screenshot) What is that doppelganger thing? I don't want any apps, nor I have the devices to operate them, I just want to use it on my computer.. Thanks in advance.
As per the discussion below you, they've totally gotten rid of the face recognition for pc's etc. It's now only available as an app on tablets and smartphones. Which if you ask me is incredibly inane, as it seems obvious that not everyone (i.e. you and myself and a vast number of other people) has that sort of device to use the app on.
Celebrity collage function on the site,for computers/regulerend-users, is down; whenver i click on it i get reffered to the new doppelganger page which allows this function only for use on mobile devices,to download as an aplication, but the function that just yesterday was still availble here,is not,anymore...why?
Instructions:Install the free MyHeritage app on your mobile device using the buttons below, then tap MyCeleb.Get your celebrity match in a few seconds, tap 'Share your matches', save it to your library or camera roll and post it on Facebook using your Facebook app.
What about us reguler end-users who want to access this function from the comfort of their computer? a function that was avialble to us up untill yersterday, and suddenly no more?
Why did you limit it to only mobile devices? Not everyone has a smartphone or tablet, and even if I did, I'd like to be able to use it on my computer. I'm sorry, but it doesn't make sense.
Wow. This is incredibly disappointing. Really excludes a huge chunk of people from this service. Why not keep both ways? Not possible?
Almost three months since you asked; no answer; maybe they're short-staffed and can't keep up. Or maybe they don't care and can't be bothered.
The product blurb at http://www.myheritage.com/facial-recognition-technology seems to imply that the technology will work to do something useful like identify people in your photos as who they are. Wouldn't it be great to have that guy in the old family photo that nobody recognizes be identified as Uncle Charlie? But no, we get the stupid triviality of some celebrity look-alike game.
I'm hoping it's just for this week (doppleganger week)? But yes, an annoyance to those who actually don't have smartphones or tablets or anything one could use the app on (i.e. me!).
My brother has married his niece. Though I have shown this relation correctly as appropriate to avoid duplicate entry, the statistics wrongly show that he is married twice.
This is a feedback. I could solve the problem in a round about way, when I noticed that the children of my Brother Rameh were all shown under him and not from the line joining him to his wife. I could notice this when my brother's daughter complained that her mother is being depicted as her step mother. I tried to correct the situation by linking the children to the mother also, but the system did not accept. I got the message of this sort " already shown as a child of ...., if you persist, the link to the other person will be removed" I could finally sort out the problem, by de linking the children from the father and adding them again to the mother
Is there any word on when this might be fixed, it has been down for at least a week, picture uploads then nothing more, an update to wether or not this is a known issue would be wonderful, thank you
