Photos people detect dosent work

In my photos app I want my photos to be sorted into albums of different people. Whenever I try doing this it tells me “Photos organizes people and pets into albums. Lock your iPhone and connect it to power to complete.” I follow these steps and it dosnet work, this has been happening for months to a year now. It has sorted a few different people but then when I try manually choosing photos to faces the button to do so is blacked out and unable to be used.

Getting Photos People to Work:


A. Use Siri:

What happens when you tell Siri to sort them? Open the Photos app, and see if you can sort them that way.


B. Blocked Out:

Being blacked out, they're either inaccessible or corrupt. Download a few, and see if that make them accessible, once more.


C. Back Up Your Photos:

Do so by exporting the photos to your Mac or PCTransfer Photos and Videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or PC - Apple Support
