The photo iOS chooses to show as each person, sometimes it picks a photo you don't want and you wish you pick a different one.

Open Photos
Touch the People Album
Touch the Album of the Persons Photos - example Open all the faces of John
Touch Select at upper right of screen
Touch to select the Photo you want as the Key photo so a Blue Check is on lower right of photo
Touch the Share icon
Touch Set Key Face

There are 6 separate albums of my daughter, one has 250 pics, one 382 and so on. For whatever reason it has her 6 times as opposed to all being combined into one. Do I have the ability to combine these albums if it's of the same person?

Go to Photos
Touch People
Touch Select upper right
Touch to Select all the albums your daughter is categorized
Touch lower right corner - Merge.

So quick & easy when you know what you are doing. Thanks a lot, much easier to keep track with one folder as opposed to 6.
