How to activate face recognition in google photos if you are outside USA.

I am living in Greece, that means technologically we can't get all the features immediately but some months (or even years) later.

Also we have laws about privacy (some are from EU) which means some features we might never get it, like face recognition on Google Photos app (in Moments app - from Facebook we have face recognition).

But because i am taking many photos, it matters to me to have face recognition, so that trick below shows you how to activate the face recognition and it doesn't matter in which country you are (Greece, UK, Germany, etc).

1. Install TunnelBear VPN to your smartphone (it can work with every VPN app).
2. Create an account on VPN (It's free) and connect to USA.
3. Open Google Photos App to your smartphone and go to settings.
4. Then go to "Group Similar Faces" and enable the options it has inside.
5. Disconnect from VPN and remove it if you wish.
6. In Albums you will see the "People" album, which it might take few days to put the faces of your friends and people you took photo.

That's how it's working.

I inspired to write this blog post, because i have done it in my smartphone, and because of the following video.
