• If Samsung Gallery's text search isn't working, try updating the app, restarting it, or clearing its cache.

• To clear the cache, go to Settings > Apps > Samsung Gallery > Storage > Clear Cache.

• If the issue persists, try resetting the app's preferences or reinstalling it.

Thank you

I cleared the cache
Also, I restarted my phone
I can't reinstall it. I have a lot of videos and pic's.

I tested on S24 ultra.
Text search works well. Even it uses some AI in some cases (example: I can type "jacket" to search for all the photos that someone is wearing a jacket).

I've done all this and still doesn't work on my S24 Ultra, and worked perfect on my old S23

had the same problem since a while with Galaxy A12.

Things I tried without success:

clear cache, stop App, clear Data, change Network, change Keyboard...

The only solution that works is uninstall the update under Apps > Galaxy Store > on Top right corner click uninstall update.

Then start Galaxy Store, it will redownload the latest updated version and install it, and voila it works.
