Where can I find my photos that I tagged with people that are "Not attached to Family Tree"?

For years I added photos through the memories app, tagging people with their names. Over the course of that time, various versions of the Android app weren't allowing/performing PID or name search.

Since 2018, I've added more than 6,000 memories, I thought I'd sorted all the tagging problems, but my dad just sent me a photo of one that I need to fix and cannot locate.

These photos are tagged with the correct person's name, but that person is "Not attached to Family Tree".

Is there a way to sort/filter "memories" I added that will allow me to find all the memories with people who are "Not attached to Family Tree" so that I can work through attaching them?

If so, could you please help me figure that out so I can resolve this issue on so many memories? If there is not yet a feature like this, could you please add it? It would make life a lot easier. 😅

    Is this the Delmar Lee Mallicoat you are searching for? https://www.familysearch.org/en/tree/person/G6LY-XJ9

    There are 9 memories attached to the profile, including the photos shown in your screenshot.

    Unfortunately, the system does not have a filter option to search for memories in your Gallery that include “Tags Not Attached to Family Tree.”

    I can share this request with the Memories Team.

    Sorry for the struggle!

    Yes, that is the correct Delmar Lee Mallicoat. The issue is that I have hundreds of memories in my gallery that are "tagged" with people's names who are not attached to the tree. I am working through my memories, trying to find all the people that I have tagged who have not yet been attached to the tree. The example I gave was using a photo that has several people "tagged" in it, three of which are Delmars who are not yet attached to the tree. So I need to be able to merge those tags and then locate all the people I tagged in the memories app, who aren't yet connected to the tree.
