Find anyone’s social media from just a face photo

Facial Recognition finds the social media profiles of people with a public online presence from a photo of their face. You can search right here on the web, or in the free iOS and Android app. Searches require a subscription. A search compares your photo against more than 1 billion indexed faces and returns the top 100 matches, each linking to a webpage where we have seen that face or people who look similar.

Yes. You can find someone's social media from a photo with Facial Recognition, either right here in your browser or in the iOS and Android app. It matches the face in your photo against images that are publicly available online and links every match to the page it was found on, so you can check it yourself. That covers Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, X, Reddit and public pages across the wider web. Dating apps are the exception: Tinder, Hinge and Bumble keep profiles behind a login, so no face search can reach them, whatever a service might claim. Screenshot your match's photo and search that instead, which often turns up the accounts behind it.

Run their profile photos through Facial Recognition before you meet, from your browser or the iOS and Android app. Screenshot the photo from their dating profile and search it: if the same face comes back on accounts under a different name, or does not appear anywhere at all, you have your answer.

Google matches images, not faces. It looks for copies of the exact photo you upload, so it returns nothing for a picture that has never been posted online. Face search analyses the face itself and maps its unique features, so it still works with old photos, angled photos or partially hidden faces, and finds the person in completely different pictures across the web.

Yes. PimEyes leaves social media out of its index, so profiles are the one thing it will not find, and FaceCheck.ID takes payment in cryptocurrency only. Facial Recognition searches public social media alongside the wider web, and you pay the ordinary way: card, Apple Pay or Google Pay on the web, or through the App Store or Google Play in the app. Searches need a subscription, with optional credit top-ups.

Yes. Any photo you upload is deleted within 24 hours. The original image is discarded once the face has been read from it, and the search results and a low resolution thumbnail are held only long enough to show you the results before being deleted too. Uploaded photos are never indexed, published or shared.
