Spotlight on Me
Spotlight on Me finds the best photos of you in your iPhone library, ranked by quality and framing, entirely on-device.
Spotlight on Me finds your best solo photos. You tell Claritas which face is yours, and it ranks the photos of you by aesthetics, face quality, framing, sharpness and open eyes, then shows a curated grid with a "Top shot". Face recognition runs entirely on your iPhone.
How to use Spotlight on Me
- Open Spotlight on me and tap Introduce yourself.
- Claritas looks through your photos and groups faces on-device.
- Answer "Which one is you?", or pick a solo photo of yourself.
- Browse "You at your best" with your Top shot at the top.
The ranking combines aesthetic quality (30%), face quality (25%), framing (15%), sharpness (15%), open eyes (10%) and portrait mode (5%).
If Claritas picked the wrong person, choose "This isn't me, reassign". "Reset Spotlight" deletes the stored enrollment data.
