Mylio Photos’ Dynamic Search is the most innovative and fastest way to find specific files. The application dynamically indexes your files as you add and import media into your Mylio Photos Library. This information is added to a blazing-fast SQL database that produces search results faster than any other tool currently on the market. As you use Dynamic Search, it learns the type of data you commonly search for and creates custom indexes for your library, making subsequent searches even more efficient. Users can even apply QuickFilters to further narrow search results on numerous criteria, including date, file format, quality, and much more.
