    Hey teo1678, thanks for posting your question to our Community today.

     

    You can indeed change how the comments on a file are sorted.

     

    To do so, click on the "sort by" button above the comments, which will allow you to choose one of three options:

     

    1. Newest
    2. Oldest
    3. Unread

     

    I hope this helps and let me know how it goes!

    Good morning and thanks for the answer, correct if I read the comments from PC but on a smartphone I don't have this possibility, is there a way to do it on a smartphone too?

    Hi teo1678, I did a double-check on my end and it seems this feature doesn't exist when using the mobile indeed. 

     

    Your feedback regarding this has been very valuable and I will endeavor to make sure your voice is heard.

     

    If you need anything else, let me know!

    Good morning, thank you for the reply. In reality, when he started using this mode, 5-6 years ago, the comment history was "correct", the last one inserted was fed first and by scrolling you got to the first. Then with system updates this vision disappeared.
