I tried the pro version - I found a picture of myself in crowd at a concert that was taken by a blogger more than 10 years ago. I didn't know I was in that picture.

This scares me
I uploaded a celebrity photo and it only returned a few TV screengrabs and promo shots. Not even a fan selfie.
Premium user?
Nope. But if the search results didn't find a single social media pic, it vibes like a scam. It's probably just hooked into Google image search or something.
Maybe, but reverse image search with face recognition is a big risk, PimEye isn't the only one, there are also FaceCheck, ProFace Finder and some other which are using AI, accessible for any s..normal.
It couldn't find me.
Well, now it can
Hehehe I was about to comment that
I used my mastodon picture. I was hoping it would find at least that, but it couldn't.
Good for you
Are there any versions where you don't have to pay to find the link of yourself?
Bad if you don't find yourself without an app, but worse when any idiot can track and stalk you usinge this app.
