airdrop photos not chronologically correct "anymore"

Hi guys, I used to send photos from another iPhone to mine using AirDrop and the photos will show correctly in the chronological order in Photos tab (it still shows in date of sending in Albums tab and I don't think there is a solution for that) but recently even Photos tab now shows the new photos sent in order of date sent!


I don't understand what happened and I didn't change any settings whatsoever. Can someone help

iPhone 7, iOS 13

I actually found out what is going on. it seems there is a new option now when share photos by airdrop to send photos will all details. Before you choose contact to airdrop to, on the top it shows the number of photos/videos and underneath that "options" if you tap on that you can choose "All photos data", this will send the photos with all details and they will show up in correct chronological order in Photos tab on the new device.


Apple still didn't fix the "album" chronological order options, yet.
