Feature Request Sorting by Date Added/Modified
-
The notes are already in order of Date Modified. I would like to be able to sort by date added as well, and show the date of each note in the view. I use it for mental browsing history and bookmarks in one. But, i rather frequently like to go back through my browsing history in chronological order, sometimes I remember there was an interesting note I made before this note, but after that note but I can’t remember what it was. It’s much like a journal which is also chronological.
But, the moment you alter a note, you lose the chronological order which is a valuable property. As a bonus, the ability to show them in a date grouping, like your browser history or Google photos would be helpful.
This feature request applies to all apps and platforms.

Hi. You can change the Sort Order to Date Created (in settings).
You might be able to use tags to create groupings, but you’d need to plan ahead. Just don’t use dashes (-) in tags.
Large-scale revisions to the Simplenote service seem to be relatively unlikely, but there’s no harm in asking.

That’s fair. It’s a nice to have, but SimpleNote is great as is, and definitely simple.
Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll try it!

@eadler05 Yes, there is already an option to sort by date created, as @johnswift37 said:

Here’s our guide on that, should you need it: https://simplenote.com/help/#sort
Hope this helps!
