Photos Only Showing as Memories

Why are some of my photos only showing in the memories folder? When I search for all of my photos for 2020 there are several thousand missing. If I revise my search for a specific date, there are many more photos showing up by as memories.

When I search for a year in Photos iOS I am also getting a poor result, just a few curated photos. For 2020 the result is only 37 photos, when I do the same search on a Mac I am getting many more.


To see all photos for a year, click "Library", then "Years", then tap "January" and then "All Photos". Now you can browse all photos of the year.
