The new tool is part of a broader effort by Facebook to encourage more content sharing.
Users have to physically opt into the new feature, as it isnt enabled by default.
If youve ever sent your friends a photo via Messenger, youve likely already opted in.
It is also possible to turn off facial recognition in Facebooks configs in the Timeline and tagging section.
However, for iPhone users, it will scan through the camera roll periodically.
Marcus confirmed that the feature was testing in Australia and would be rolling out in the US soon.
Currently, the tool is in testing on Android in Australia and will be rolling out on iOS later.
Instead of downloading a new app, it will likely be added with an update in both cases.
