The first thing I read on the landing page is:

"Encrypted backups for your photos and videos"

But you show apps with images that for me implies that I can you an application you provide to look at the photos that are stored?

I dont think of Google Photo as my backup, though I presume it is that as well, but as a way to look at photos, organize them, do some quick editing, and show the same photo collection on all my devices.

Is this mostly pure backup?

Is there a means to search for photos per keyword, location, or any other meta data.

If I wish to export all photos with the keyword "Good dog" can I do that?

If so what all meta data is stored and can I adjust what I want to be revealed or not?
