I contacted Google ab this...Ioften share photos from samsung gallery to the Google Drive app. It works fine but I have a lot of folders and have to scroll to find them. Takes time. So I asked Google why no search for folder when I share directly to Google chrome. They said go to folder first in google chrome, choose folder, then download to it. 

 
And then they said contact my device manufacturer and tell them ab this feature I want. Not sure what samsung can do w gallery app to make that search folders button appear in Google Drive but that is what they suggested. That folder search is only there if I start in the Google Drive app. Weird but true.

Why are you sharing your photos to Google Drive when your phone already syncs with Google photos? The Drive and photos use the same storage allocation, so all you are doing is rapidly filling up that allocation by duplicating photos. You can create albums in Google photos and you can search. The default is to sort by date.
