Images Opened from External File Browser Only Sort By Recent

[locuturus]

Hello,

If I'm browsing my files with a file manager and I use SG to view an image in a folder of many images I see I am able to swipe through the other images in the folder. Nice! However, the SG viewer activity always sorts these images by most recently modified even if I have changed the sort option to something else in the main Simple-Gallery application.

I would like to be able to either adjust the current sort order from the image viewer activity itself, or have the viewer respect the sort option of the main application. The former would be more convenient but anything would be good. I've observed this on A12 with both Samsung and Sony phones.

Cheers!

Not that I'm aware of.
