Missing Options in Apple Photos for iOS

I love the photos App, but it's missing a few critical features.
My photo library is pretty big, with about 23,000 photos and videos, it's getting harder and harder to find a photo when you're looking for it. Thankfully Apple's Photos App has features to automatically categorize photos using their cloud based photo recognition software, which basically lets you search for faces and common objects, but it falls short when it comes to personal details.
For example, you can search for Cat, and it will find every picture featuring a cat. That's pretty slick, but what if I'm looking for something like a Grateful Dead T-Shirt, my graduation photo, or pictures of my old office? To find things like that, they way to enter titles, descriptions and keywords, which is only possible when you use the Photos App on the Mac. While this is a great option for people like me, there are millions of people who don't have one, and there's no way to enter them from your iPhone or iPad.
The ability to enter titles, keywords, and descriptions is particularly important because of the trend to replace traditional computers with mobile devices and tablets. As more people give up their desktops, they need to make sure that iOS devices have the same capabilities as a desktop or laptop.
