How do I separate two faces that Nest Aware thinks is the same person?

My friend and I look similar and Nest Aware puts his pictures under my name. How do I separate his face from my face?

Hi there,

 

You should be able to reassign incorrect familiar faces. Doing this as quickly as possible may reduce incorrect detections in the future.

 To do this:

Home app

1. On the home screen, tap Settings > Nest Aware > Familiar face detection

2. Tap a face to add or change the name

Further directions are on this page.

Edited for formatting.

I hope this helps!

Thanks. I'll keep deleting the person until Nest Aware figures out it's a different person.

Nest Aware still hasn't figured out that my friend is not me. I just delete it every time it adds him to my library.
