Organize photos chronologically

I had just created a new album in my iphone and accidentally added the photos from newest to oldest. Since I wanted that reversed, I plugged my phone into my pc, opened iCloud, and tried to reverse the album. When I opened iCloud, the photos suddenly became shuffled. I have iCloud photo library on, and I'm worried that turning it off will delete some of my photos. I can't see any place in iCloud where I can set an album to arrange chronologically, from oldest taken to newest taken. Does anyone know how to do this? I have a HP Spectre computer and an iPhone 11 on the newest ios.

iPhone 11, iOS 13

Hello Ivangalien,

We understand that you want to know if there is a button to arrange photos in chronological order in iCloud. We're happy to provide some information about that to you!

Here is a way you can arrange them on your iPhone.

"Rename, rearrange, and delete existing albums

Tap the Albums tab, then tap See All.
Tap Edit, then do any of the following:

- Rename: Tap the album name, then enter a new name.
- Rearrange: Touch and hold the album’s thumbnail, then drag it to a new location.
- Delete: Tap .

Tap Done."
