SEARCH

I hate how the search in the gallery is functioning. I was able to search albums, but now it only shows me pictures. I was able to search related items; for example, if I search "cup," it will show related media that's in my gallery. This was very helpful, as I have a lot of pictures and videos, and if I am particularly looking for something, it was easy for me to search and find it. Also, when I want to open a particular album, it's easier than scrolling through all of the albums. Is there anything I need to do in the settings? It was working fine until I updated it.

Here, I searched for Canon. I have an album called Canon and I also have pictures of the canon camera unit but it is not showing.

It is still the same. It only shows me media related to the search. I would like the album to appear in the search result. I saw the search settings and the album is not part of the search result and I guess i can't do anything.
