My Question or Issue

On my phone: I am trying to sort my starred playlist by newest added, but when I tap 'Sort playlist' I am just brought back to the playlist with no changes. Does anyone know what I can do? Thank you.

Hey @yourname942,

Can you try sorting the playlist by following these steps?

1. Go to the list you’d like to sort.
2. Pull down and release to display  at the top. Tap it.
3. Under Sort By, tap your preferred option (E.g. Recently added).
4. Repeat these steps to reverse the order or pick another sort option.

Let me know how it goes. Happy listening 🙂

I tap my library > playlists > starred (ie. the playlist I want to sort) But where is that icon at step 2? All I see is the 3 vertical dots. I do not see a sort by option either. (the image from before are the only options I see when I tap the 3 vertical dots at the top right of the image below)

Hey @yourname942,

To get to the  icon in step two, you have to scroll up until it looks like the below image. Then, you'll be able to click on the  icon.
