Mobile app search has no album filter (web does)

I have searched the existing feature requests, both open and closed, to make sure this is not a duplicate request.

• Yes

The feature

Summary

The web search UI can filter by album (#21001, closed as completed).
The mobile app's search filters do not include album.

Details

On the web I can narrow an album down to just the photos from one camera:

/search?query={"albumIds":["<album-id>"],"model":"Camera-model"}

On mobile there is no equivalent. The search filter sheet has no album
option, so a large trip album cannot be narrowed down at all.

Use case

I keep one album per trip. Photos come from my phone and from a separate
camera. On the web, filtering that album by camera model gives me exactly
the camera shots. On mobile I cannot do this, so I end up scrolling
through the whole album.

Related: #30284 asks for filtering album contents by asset type, which is
the same kind of need on the web side.

Not a duplicate — I searched both issues and discussions before posting.

What I found, and why each one is different:

• Search UI has no filter for "album" #21001 "Search UI has no filter for album" — this is the web UI, and it
  was closed as completed. My request is that the mobile app's search has
  no album filter, which is a separate implementation.
• [Feature] Add ability to filter album contents by asset type (photos vs videos) #30284 "Filter album contents by asset type (photos vs videos)" — same
  general need (narrowing down an album), but a different axis (media type
  rather than camera/metadata) and again web-side.

I could not find any existing thread asking for album as a search filter
in the mobile app. Happy to be pointed at one if I missed it.

This is definitely a duplicate of #12258
