Moreover, this app doesn’t have a search feature, but it has an option called Search. It launches Gallery, where the images are arranged in the alphabetical order. Let us hope that these things will be taken into consideration while updating Image Route 66.

Developer’s response: In my opinion there is a misunderstand  about the search option. When you tap Search you go to the gallery area where the keys (not the photos) are in alphabetic order, a lot of keys are about the cities, but others are about things like cars, signs, motel, museum, etc.,In this case you see all the pict with cars,signs.. etc., Other keys are about states, so you can see all the pict about texas, Kansas etc.,
