How do I change the order of the photos in an album

[Android Central Question]

I have created and album to share but need to reorganize the timeline

Welcome to Android Central! Which photo gallery app are you using?

Sharing it will defeat anything you set your app to display. It's the app that sets the display order, not anything you can do to the album. (If you set it to, say, date order, and the person you share it to views in name order, he'll see it in name order, not date order.)

The only thing you can do is change the name of the photos beginning with a number. For less than 10 photos, start the name with 1_ then 2_ etc. For less than 100 photos, start with 11_ and for less than 1,000 photos, start with 111_ etc. When someone views the set ordered by name, they will see it as you intended.
