Sorting Files by date on the Android App

[RidgeRider]

Is there a way to sort files on the android app by date (not modified) and also change the order by ascending or descending? It has by name or modified but thats all! I ask as I would like to see my latest photos in Camera Uploads at the top of the file list.

Hey @RidgeRider, thanks for reaching out to our Community!

I've searched a bit and I have found this idea. Does it seem similar to what you'd like to do?

If so, you can up-vote it and if it gathers enough votes, it could be implemented in the future.

Let me know if you have any questions!

I agree, every day I look for photos on my android and the app only sorts alphabetically.I have to manually drop down to change to sort by most recent. In Cameral Uploads newest should be the default sort. I definitely don't want dropbox to rename my files. their already named by date and time, so this is a default sort tweak in the app,  not a file renaming issue.

hi hannah, it seems such a simple and logical request to see photos sorted by most recent as a default. I'm annoyed every time I see old photos first and have to go through the extra two clicks to see the most recent. Can this be changed? Or let user set which order they prefer as default?

still annoyed by the default sort order, should be most recent first

Simple answer, drop Drobox and something else like Google Drive?

I do business on Dropbox. Google drive has more desktop compatibility issues than dropbox. The android app sort feature would not be enough to switch teams, but it seems obvious not want to look at your OLDEST files on your phone...
