Search in Photos on iPad
When you search in the Photos app , you see suggestions for people, places, and photo categories to help you find what you’re looking for, or rediscover a moment you forgot about. Type a keyword into the search field to help you find a specific photo—for example, a person’s name, date, or location.
Ask Siri. Say something like: “Show me photos from January 2010.” Learn how to ask Siri.
![Photos is open in landscape orientation. At the bottom of the screen from left to right are the Photos, For You, Albums, and Search buttons; Search is selected. At the top of the screen is a search field; a location and dates are entered in the search field. Below the search field suggested search results are listed. A grid of photos yielded from the search terms are in the middle of the screen. At the top left of the grid of photos, the total number of photos in the search result is listed. At the top right of the grid of photos is a See All button.](https://help.apple.com/assets/5F19052E680CE2FB46D88582/5F190531680CE2FB46D88597/en_US/33970fe1179dc8891697ad3c14b121b2.png)

Business names (museums or restaurants, for example)

Person (Lia or Gordon, for example)
Looking for something more specific? Refine your search with multiple keywords—simply keep adding keywords until you find the photo you want. Search also suggests keywords to add to your search.
