- Terretta 5y agoThe ‘complex queries’ in Apple Photos is done as a series of discrete set descriptors. As you type your descriptor, tap the appropriate found set below (they list photos in the set) to turn it into a tag, then continue typing the next descriptor. For this search, you’d end up with something that looks like: [new york metropolitan area][dog] These result in a venn diagram of the overlaps. In my case with 12K photos in NY metro, it found the one dog photo I had.
- BoorishBears 5y agoTheir tags are just strictly inferior. In Apple Photos I can search for a car. In Google Photos I can search for a specific manufacturer and it recognizes not just the logos but attempt to classify the actual cars they make. For example, it recognizes a Toyota from a BMW just based on the body shape. The text search is insane too, it can find text in photos you would struggle to realize was there in many cases, which is huge when trying to find old information.
