The people check
Why we count the people in your video, and what to do if it is wrong.
Updated 12 Oct 2026
What it does
When you upload a video, an automatic check counts how many people appear in it. If it sees more people than you have added consent for, the video cannot go on sale until you add everyone.
If it is wrong
Mirrors, posters and screens can fool it. Tap The check is wrong, tell the reviewer what it saw, and a member of our team looks for themselves.
