Q: turn off face recognition in iOS 10 photos?
I HATE what's been done to the Photos app in iOS 10. I've got a ten year old personal system of creating folders and sorting my photos into them and don't want some geek putting his system in front of mine. You just can't automate my own folder choices.
Is there some way to turn off face recognition? and Places? Is there some way to delete all those stupid folders in albums? I'm looking to clean up the app and remove: people, places, selfies, panoramas, slo-mo from my iPhone.
If that isn't possible, my second choice would be to at least move them to the very end of the scroll line - after all of my own created folders.
thanks

It’s amazing, but they didn’t give us a way to opt-out of the image analysis and the only way to avoid it is to move your photos off of the IOS device. I have mine auto-uploading to Microsoft’s cloud, which then auto-downloads them to my computer. I delete them off of IOS as soon as possible. I’m sure Apple was hoping I would wake each morning to a happy little memory, but I open my phone each morning and delete everything
