What's New in Queryable

2.1.2

July 10, 2026

New Features - Search in Any Language - Type in your own language and Queryable finds the right photos. Non-English queries are translated on your device, so nothing leaves your phone and English search stays just as accurate. - Search by Photo - Take a picture, or pick one from your library, to instantly find similar shots in your album. - Filter by Time - Narrow any search to the last week, month, 3 months, 6 months, year, or a specific year. - Batch Select & Share - Swipe across photos to select them, select all at once, then share or export in a single tap. - Choose Which Duplicates to Keep - When cleaning up duplicates, you can now tick each photo individually to keep or remove exactly the ones you want. - Live Photos & Originals - Share full-resolution originals, with full Live Photo and video playback. Design - A brand-new look with an Apple Photos-style grid, smooth zoom transitions, a floating glass search bar, and a cleaner first-time setup. - Haptic feedback throughout for a more responsive feel. Privacy - Queryable now asks for photo access only when you actually search. Nothing is read from your library until you choose to. Performance & Reliability - Opens straight to search, with no black screen or launch delay. - First search is now instant instead of a 2-3 second wait. - Lower memory use on large photo libraries. - Fixed video playback and Live Photos in the photo viewer. - Fixed deleted photos sometimes still appearing in results. - Fixed several crashes during search and indexing.

Found my missing photo right away

I have just bought this, in desperation at trying to find a particular photo. I had been searching manually and through Apple Photos search functionality but could not find it. In desperation I bought this app and it found the photo on my first search! Very happy!

Awesome app

Just a fantastic app, search works super well and the developer has implemented most of the features I’ve wanted out of this app. Great job!

Response from developer

:)

It’s great!!

I like how quick and easy it is to use. One issue I have is that the images aren’t masonry like on the photos app which makes it a bit hard to see but its not a big deal imo. When selecting multiple images I wish you could multiselect a lot of images like on the photod app. I’d also like if you could copy your entire selection in the share option or move them to another app. The only action you can take is deleting it which is neat but more options (like copying or ideally opening them in another app) would be great!

On the iPad if your in horizontal mode and you open an image. The image apparently shrinks in size. You have to put it on vertical one and back to horizontal mode to fix it.

If a couple of this changes could be implemented that would take this application from a great app to a extremely useful one. Overall this is a great project! Keep up the great work!!!

If I see any of these changes I’ll be happy to give this a 5 star!

Edit: saw this awesome update go through!! Glad to see improvements are being made! Amazing app! :)

Freezes

The app freezes after analyzing 12.000 photos. I’ve got over 200.000 using iCloud. It freezes every single time around 12k on an iPhone 16e. It does not saves progress, so the analysis start over when you restart the app.

Response from developer

hey please update to version 2.0.9, this issue should have been fixed.

Doesn’t Seem to Work on Mac

I literally just bought this and used it on my Mac Studio and also on my MacBook Air. For both instances, it does not seem to function correctly. Any query brings up the same results. Reading a prior developer response, it appears the developer recommends not using it on Mac, but it’s listed as a Mac app on the store.

FAQ

What is Queryable and how does it work?

Queryable is an open-source, offline photo album search tool. It allows you to search your photos using detailed, natural language descriptions. After an initial one-time indexing of your photo collection, you can quickly find specific images by describing them.

How does Queryable protect my photo privacy?

Your photo privacy is fully protected because the app works entirely offline. It requires no network connection for searching or indexing, and you can even disable its network permissions for added security.

What are the system requirements for Queryable?

The app requires an initial download and then works offline. The indexing process speed depends on your device; for example, an iPhone 12 mini can process about 2,000 photos per minute. It supports English, French, German, Spanish, and Italian, with English yielding the best results.

How do I get started with Queryable?

After downloading the app, you'll need to build an index for your photos, which takes a few minutes. Once indexing is complete, you can start searching your photos using descriptive phrases. You can also easily update the index when you add new photos.

What is the cost of Queryable?

Queryable is a one-time purchase application. You pay once and can use it forever without any recurring fees or subscriptions.
