This is fun: , see which historical artwork you resemble!
not available in UK :(
Not available in US. Where, precisely, is it available?
not available in Ukarine
not available in Mexico :(
not available in Germany but I set my VPN to Washington and that worked.
When will this selfie feature be available in Europe or Germany to be more precise? Does anyone know? Can't wait to try it.
+1! Not available in Russia!
Pretty smart way to get an insane amount more data on peoples faces and continue to train their systems w/o any push back. #Genius

I don't understand what is so special about this app, recycling google database with another app and the main feature (why I tapped Install) is not working...

Pros:

Take a selfie and see which historical artwork you resemble

Cons:

Blocked for 90% of the countries.

Alright. One question though. Google discriminating countries and regions from their products, is it for fun, or there is truly a reason to do that ? Because I don't understand.
I have really no idea for sure, but I’m wondering if it stems from rights agreements with the museums, which have works indexed in the app. I’m guessing (hoping) surely this will change in the future, it’s not really Google’s brand to withhold public information.
it's probably around laws for facial recognition. It's not enabled for some countries for Google photos too.
I hope so me too
I would answer that they always do that on the search also. Lucky (or not) users get the new version while others wait

WHY would you remove features for people that live in certain US States!?!!

Pros:

none

Cons:

features not available

Either way, this app is fun: either you find your identical twin from centuries ago, or Google's algorithm finds your next () Halloween costume. 👻 Mountain View Even from our and are getting in on the action. 👀😂

derp

Pros:

compiles info about art in one app

Cons:

features not available

Please have #keanureeves take a selfie for this app..

I live in Austin, TX, which apparently is not worthy of the selfie feature.

Pros:

none

Cons:

The selfie feature is location based

Same here outside of DFW area. I thought I was losing my mind. My Instagram feed was showing so many of these that I caved and downloaded the app, but could not for the life of me find anything related to this feature.
