Find group photos and videos on iPhone

The Photos app recognizes groups of people and pets who often appear together in pictures and videos, and sorts them into group collections. For example, if you have many pictures of your family or a group of friends, Photos creates a collection for each of those groups.

Groups is open in the People & Pets section of the Photos app, showing a list of collections labeled with the names of the people included in the group.

Find group photos and videos

  1. Go to the Photos app on your iPhone.

  2. Tap Collections, then tap People & Pets.

  3. Swipe the collections below Groups to browse, or tap Groups to view them all.

  4. Tap a group to view all the photos and videos in that collection.

    Tip: To view pictures of this group with additional people, tap the Sort and Filter button, tap View Options, then tap Other People.

To share the photos of the group, tap the More button, then tap Share.
