So after smart switch you went into gallery it was ok, then trying to send pictures it out of order?
Hi, yes the photos in gallery are ok.. but videos I've just checked are all out of order.
I smart-switched over to S20 Ultra from OnePlus everything was fine until I went to post on Instagram and all my gallery is jumbled up! I then went into the video folder in my gallery and it is the same there. Videos are just sorted randomly in between photos. Can anyone help?

Sorry didn't know it would merge them.
These videos havent been edited for months that have appeared near the top.

When I go into the gallery... all seems to be fine. Its when I go to post into instagram and facebook its the videos which are all out of place.
Not sure why in the gallery they would be in order but opening gallery in instagram/facenoom it's a mess?

Looking at the details they are just mp4 files. Found in internal storage/DCIM.
Some are labelled VID and some saved from snapchat. They do seem to be organised with the title (by number) although I have sorted them on the gallery by decending. And doesn't seem to have made a difference :-(

Ok, so what I'm wondering is if the way Instagram sorts them corresponds to the filenames. Are you saying that when you sort by filename in your file manager app, the order still doesn't correspond to how you see it in Instagram?

Are you trying access photos by the circle in my screen shot or bottom in Instagram?
Yes they are fine in the "gallery" app it seems. If i click on videos or photos etc. But even if i click sort and go back to instagram they are still jumbled.... :-(
" choose from photos" doesnt appear in mine
I deleted all the videos and restored them and now my photos are also not in order now !!

I'm having the exact problem. I have just regular photos that are in order when I look in the gallery, but when I go to upload them to Facebook and it opens the gallery, only the most recent day or so are on top. The rest are all over the place. I've been screenshotting the ones I want to post so they are first when I go to post but that's a pain. I thought I was the only one, but this has happened as long as I've had the phone two months ago).
