• [X] The title of this issue accurately describes the bug.

Steps to reproduce the bug

1. Have a playlist in YouTube music that is sorted by date added recently
2. Save that playlist to innertune by and have it sorted by date added recently
3. If you add a new song to that playlist it will put it to the bottom

Expected behavior

Here is a video of what happens, you see all the songs I have are the most recent, so if I add a song, it goes to the least recent. https://imgur.com/a/VvX3D5C

I think when you add the songs from YouTube music to a playlist the sorting gets inverted.

Actual behavior

Check above video and explanation

I think I should of taken a video of the YouTube music playlist import to innertune, because I think that's the actual issue, it brings the sort of the items inverted, recently added goes to the bottom..

I think it's not a bug. You can change ascending or descending by clicking on the arrow button.

It is a bug. Yes you can change the order fine, but when you change it to descending, it will take the playlist that you've just imported as descending and it will invert it to ascending, so if you add something new to that playlist inside innertune it will add it as descending fine, but all the other songs you've just imported will be ascending.

If you sort by added time ascending, new added song should appear at bottom of the playlist, right?

Yes they should, but you're sorting your playlist by songs you recently added, you wouldn't sort your playlist by ascending you would sort it by descending, so you can see your new songs you've added first.

When you import a playlist from YouTube music, the order defaults to "custom" it comes in sorted properly, but as soon as you switch it to "date added descending" it will switch the oldest songs to the top of the playlist.

Import a playlist can be viewed as adding each song of the playlist from top to bottom. Therefore, it's normal, right?

You can't add a sense of the playlist button?

Maybe add them from bottom to top for this to work properly

But the create time will be wrong, and the order will be inverted if you sort by added time ascending.

No it won't, it would be correct if you sorted by added time ascending

Can you just use custom order? You can also change the order as you want.

It's too long

No because if I use custom order, if I added a new song to the playlist it goes to the bottom. Can you make it go to the top then please?

YouTube Music and Spotify are same with InnerTune: new added song shows in playlist bottom.

New added songs to playlists do not go to the bottom in YouTube music, I use the app myself

My playlists are all sorted "newest first"

[z-huang]

Oh, I got what you're saying. Whether you sort by newest first or oldest first, the playlist you added to that playlist always stays the same order. It's like YouTube grouped these songs together with the same added time. Unfortunately, my current database design cannot handle this. Please create another feature request for this, and thanks for your patient to discuss with me :)

I don't think that's quite it. What's funny is I just sorted my YouTube music playlist to "newest last" then I imported it, and it came in sorted as "newest first" or "date added descending" and when I added something to it it popped up at the top.

Two problems, I'll have to keep my playlist on YouTube music set to newest last if I ever want to sync it, which obviously isn't ideal. Also another thing I noticed, which would be cool is when I add something to that playlist on inntertune and resync it it will be deleted, it would be cool to keep anything you've added on top on that. But I'll have to create a separate issue for that

And I appreciate you spending the time talking with me about the issue as well :)
