How to search within a FB group on Android phone or tablet

I posted this elsewhere but have not had a response, so posting for traffic here.

I can't see any way to search within a FB group (using a keyword) on my Android phone or tablet, the same way I can on my PC/laptop.

For example, if I wanted to search a FB motorhome group for a specific location and see posts within the group that mentions that location.

Any ideas?

When you're on the group's page just use the search bar at the top. It automatically defaults to searching within the group (Android mobile app)

Mine doesn't have that option (on Samsung Galaxy tab and Android phone).

I go onto the group page and it shows the cover pic and menu below for About, Discussion, Photos, etc.

No search bar at the top?

Wait, ignore that! I can't do it on my tablet, but the option is there on my phone. That's great, thank you!
