Photo search only brings up photos with matching text

Example: Searching for “cat” brings up images with the word “cat” spelled out, but no photos of cats.

Have you scrolled up all the way, to see the bottom of the list of search results?


When I search for "Cat" I am getting a detailed list with the captions "Text found in photos", "Albums", "Categories", "Keywords". But the list is too long to fit onto the display.

To see the results for "Category: Cats" and "Keywords" I have to shift the list up, to be able to see the last entries.
