How to Find People Online
Lenso.ai’s facial search feature allows you to discover images of individuals online. Follow these steps to get started:

- Open lenso.ai's main page and upload an image. You can either select one from your gallery or take a new picture.
- Navigate to the People category and tap “Show More” to access the full search options.
- If the People category isn’t visible, facial search may not be available in your region due to local laws and regulations.
- If there's a notification stating the face wasn’t found, the person may not yet be indexed on lenso.ai. Try again later, as the platform continuously updates with new images from the internet. If you're using a Mac and encounter issues uploading images due to file-sharing problems, here are the steps to fix it.
