Photo timeline
The month/date/year no longer is listed above my photos on my iphone when I scroll through them, making searching for a pic very time consuming. That essential feature has disappeared? Why?!

Hey there baked_apple,
You may have changed from "Library" view to "For You", or "Albums".
Following Organize and find your photos on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch,
"Library
Enjoy a curated view of your moments in the Library tab, then browse by years, months, days, or all photos. You'll also see Live Photos and videos come to life as you scroll and browse.
- Years: View your entire library of photos and videos that you've taken each year. Then swipe to scan the highlights.
- Months: See groups of photos and videos taken during each month by memories and locations. Tap the More button
to share or play a movie created from your moments. - Days: Browse photos of the day and watch some of your videos automatically play as you scroll. Tap a photo and swipe up to see its location on a map and the people in it.
- All Photos: See your complete photo library including screenshots and duplicate photos in the order they were taken.
With iOS 14 and later, you can filter what gets displayed, so it's easier to browse through your library. For example, you can choose to show only photos or only videos. To filter what you see:
- Tap the Library tab, then tap the More button in the upper-right corner.
- Tap Filters, then choose an option.
- Tap Done.
To undo the filter, tap the Filters button 
near the top of your screen, then choose an option, and tap Done."
Have a good one!
