# Search

With Ideogram, you can search for your own images or publicly available images generated by other users. Use keywords that would typically appear in the image prompts.

Search scope can vary by plan and product surface. Depending on your account, search may cover public/community images, your own images, your Library, or a collection.

## Search in the Home Page

To perform a search, select the **Search** icon <picture><source srcset="/files/7hu890uHqA3Pjk8iN4ph" media="(prefers-color-scheme: dark)"><img src="/files/dA1QuDX2nNpY9muvTnsi" alt="" data-size="original"></picture> located at the top-left of the [Image Gallery](/using-ideogram/ui-overview/ui-components/image-gallery.md).

1. Select the **Search** icon to open the search box.
2. Type your keywords, then press <kbd>**Enter**</kbd> or <kbd>**Return**</kbd> to start the search.

You can also search your [Library](/using-ideogram/ui-overview/pages-ui/library-page.md) where Library search is available.

Matching images appear directly in the Image Gallery below the Search box.
