I want to organize my photos with keywords using my iPad Pro during my vacations. Apple took that option away. What is their reasoning for that and what does Apple suggest now? It’s awkward trying to set up Albums for 1,000s of photos when traveling

Of course, Apple executives have Macs, and keywords produced on a Mac can be searched in iOS or iPadOS. Smart Albums on a Mac can be used to generate regular albums for organization in iOS.

Be sure to leave your thoughts here:
You can add any information to the caption of a photo. Write the text you want to use in a search into the caption.

The Photo search however is now very powerful, and you can search for items, features, locations, and even readable text in the photos without needing keywords.
You can also add captions to the Photos, and the search will also search in that text.
To add a caption, tap on the (i) icon at the bottom, and then on Add Caption.
What is helpful about keywords is that we can select our same common keywords to group our pictures. With captions, we need to ensure that the spelling is identical with no typos.
Is there any way way to setup smart folders on iOS?
This would be so so so helpful on iOS as I seldom use my Mac any more except for things like Photo keywords and smart folders.
Smart folders are awesome. Maybe AI will be a way forward for us. with widgets or shortcuts or ...
