When using swiper for search, it only shows the number of matching lines. How can I view the number of matches?

"Please test swiper-isearch. It's no longer line-based like swiper, which makes it display the total number of matches. It also fixes the slow startup of swiper"
(setq ivy-display-style 'fancy
ivy-count-format "(%d/%d) " ; this is what you want
ivy-initial-inputs-alist nil ; remove initial ^ input.
ivy-extra-directories nil ; remove . and .. directory.)
This is from the :init of my (use-package swiper ...) declaration.

ivy-count-formatshows the current out of the total number of matching lines, not substrings. This does not do what OP is asking for.– BasilMar 21, 2018 at 21:43
swiper-isearch. See github.com/abo-abo/swiper/issues/1931
