Do shared albums always organize how ever it wants? I have renames multiple sets of photos to import in a specific fashion, and they do not organize in the manner they are suppose to (yes i know where sorry is, that does not resolve the issue).

I have purposely renamed or exported photos from other apps and imported them into photos. When ever I attempt to have them "sort" by title, they still do not organize in the correct manner. This has been going on for a bit, and I have attempted to chat the sorting and even importing one at a time (which is not efficient).

Adding photos one at a time in the order you want to see them may not be efficient, but it does seem to be the one reliable way to build a shared album to be displayed in a specific order. Users have sometimes had favorable results through one trick or another, but the tricks cannot be relied upon to continue to work across releases.
