The image should be preferably at least 500x500 pixels. The face of the person in the picture must be a minimum of 60x60 pixels, the bigger the better however the image file size must not exceed 6MB.

Beware of the Doppelgänger Effect!

A doppelgänger is an unrelated person who looks strikingly similar to someone else. While human faces vary widely, there are only so many ways a healthy face can look, meaning you likely have a look-alike somewhere in the world. When searching through a large number of faces on the FacyFey search engine, you might find someone who resembles another person closely—but they may not be the same individual.

That’s why it’s crucial not to jump to conclusions. Always look for additional clues like matching tattoos, scars, birthmarks, unique jewelry, or even a distinctive phone cover. A person’s location history can also be a key factor in verification. This is why courts should never rely solely on face-matching technology for convictions—faces are not as unique as fingerprints, which have far greater variations and remain the gold standard for identity matching.

Bottom line: A face match alone is not proof of identity. Always seek supporting evidence to confirm it.
