Rearrange the order of photos in an album
It would be really useful to make path to rearrange the order of photos in an album by dragging. Also I need to choose by myself the cover photo of the album, not to be selected at random. Thank you in advance!

Wanted to provide an update: we’ll consider this for our roadmap going forward, but don’t have any further specifics we can share at this time.

In Photo app the images are store backwards from the order the camera /phone took them. If you take a continuous shot of an event the images automatically are stored backwards. Just need to reverse the orde,,,,

OneDrive albums are entirely useless without being able to set the order of the photos. Think of a physical album of photos. If you were required to place paper photos in the exact order you took them, you'd pull your hair out!! An album is an organization of photos to *tell a story*.

Yes. rearrange needed and yes it is a disaster. Very basic I would think.

Being able to rearrange photos in a OneDrive album to create a custom order is essential. I was very surprised to find that it's not already possible. Drag and drop to create a custom order seems to be the way to go. Thanks.

Please, add sorting in Albums. Would be very useful *;-)

I agree wholeheartedly!! I uploaded a couple thousand pictures in about the same week and they are ALL jumbled. Where I had a nice, neatly organized "file cabinet" that is my phone gallery, now I have a ton of them to go through to find a set of 8 or so that used to have their own folder!!!!

Why is not the file-order saved in a folder taken for the newly created album :-o??? What a mess :-/. The photos are coming totally random, as the Nexus mobile did not save the EXIF data but the file name. Please, allow me at least to use the file-name or at least the folder-save order! Thank you

You create an album from a file after hitting "save sort order" and the order changes in the album? Hopeless. I echo all previous comments. Get this sorted Outlook....

Why??? From a technical perspective it cannot be hard to associate ordering with the images in an album. Are there legal or patent issues? If so, let us know. If not, it is a huge miss.

It is a huge miss of not able to sort photos in album. :<

Unbelievable this isn't already available. Who programs these applications without common sense? You can rearrange photos in the folders themselves, but can't do this when creating an album? So idiotic.

Albums are not very useful without the ability to order the photos. Please add this feature.

I am shocked that this can't be done. In my case, I have 2 cameras and one had an incorrect time so merging puts things out of order. I should be able to correct this by rearranging in the proper order. Please fix this.

Please add a sorting tool. A jumble of pictures does not make for a good photo album.

Adding sorting please. I still cannot do it.

Please add a sorting tool to make the Album feature a more useful creative tool. Otherwise the Album is just a way to dump related photos.

I agree this is a major drawback to OneDrive.... I also am not happy that I can not delete pictures from the "All Photos" section, without them also being deleted from albums that I have put them in.... ridiculous....

Absolutely! Some of the photos are like, background to the main subject. So you have chosen a distant photo of the ISle Of Wight as the title pic for an album of a rare bird!! It should be the GLossy Ibis!!
