Check carefully if you copied/pasted the entire key and secret correctly. The ‘copy secret’ button on the face++ website does not always work on an iPad is what I heard. ---

Been testing for 24hrs now, both inside and outside. Totally 8 cameras and a few more motion sensors. It has now replaced my entire presence system. With a cycle span of 2 seconds within a timeframe it finds every face in my database (a bit scary), 2 mins search frame outside, and 30 seconds search frame inside. It awakes my house, turning the alarm off, unlocking the doors, morning messages…and of course making me coffee. Donation coming your way. best regards. ---

Wow, you put a lot of confidence in this app 😂 Thx for sharing! ---

Yes, maybe 😃, thought it was a joke at first, but dosen`t seem that way. It`s though very off on age guessing, my daugher is 3 years old, not 19 😃 ---

Awesome feature, have you had any thoughts on ANPR? Also, is there any options available to the cloudbased database? ---

ANPR is something on my investigation list, but not sure if the face++ api supports it (I did find an endpoint suggesting they do, but it is not documented) What do you mean with cloudbased database options? ---

Nice work! Is it an option to use a local processor like a Pi with [OpenFace](https://cmusatyalab.github.io/openface/) on it (or [OpenALPR](https://github.com/openalpr/openalpr))? ---

@gruiter ive got it working now. is it possible to search more face in youre example flow or do i need to make for every person a new flow? ---

nevermind the question, I was thinking if I could get the same function by running a server locally and at the same time avoiding uploading data into the cloud. Thanks for a great app ---

One flow searches all kniwn and unknown faces in an image. For unknown faces there is a bug I need to fix, because it appears the flow is now only triggered for known faces. ---

In the app settings you can label each known face. This label is present as tag in the trigger (when) card. ![Screenshot_20200501-112712](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/3/6/369bd02482d6f3eab8efbbb32f611afce7d4bbbd.png) [Previous page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-face-face-recognition-for-homey-updated/29058.md?page=1) [Next page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-face-face-recognition-for-homey-updated/29058.md?page=3)
