Images search, custom date range search filter missing 1 Recommended Answer 14 Replies 241 Upvotes
I use the custom date range search filter on Images daily.
Starting today, the option is not listed on the TOOLS / "TIME" dropdown menu. I tried closing the browser and opening again, but it didn't help.
is this permanent? I am using a laptop which has never been identified automatically as mobile. There were a number of posts referring to this problem with mobile.

Google constantly targets random users with experimental variations to the Search and Image Search interfaces. Sometimes the differences are barely noticeable. Other variations are much more noticeable.
You may be seeing one of these experiments. You could try clearing cache and cookies but, if that doesn't help, there's nothing you can do but wait until Google thinks you've had enough and releases you from the experiment!
Of course, there's also the possibility that Google have removed the feature permanently but, as this is a user community, we have limited ways to confirm whether that is the case. However, I'll try to find out.
In the meantime I encourage you to send your feedback direct to Google using the "Send Feedback" link at the bottom of the results page.

Just noticed this as well. I can still use a custom date range in a search, but not in an image search.

I am also annoyed by this, I can only do an images search by year, last month, day..but can not search from specified time range which I need, I do not understand why they are screwing around with the search tools like this.
:(
Ive tryed avanced settings, logging in, and out..but nothing helps.
Same with changing search results to show a specified resolution, now I only get large, medium, icon etc..though you may enter advanced setting to search initially for those resolutions, it´s not the same as filtering results
Edit...what it strange though, that is if you use a pre existing image from a site or upload, then you can actually filter that result based on specified custom time period, But not directly in image search as it once used to be able to do.

I was having no luck adding the date modifier either but after using that date modifier, getting no useful result, then going back to the [tools] setting button in the search modifier bar right under the search [Time] button that then opens a fly-out window the [Custom range] option is available there.
