Although I have followed the instructions regarding automatic sorting for completed items in notes, it is not working. Is there a fix?

Hey moya193,


It looks like you checked out the correct article to follow the steps. From the article you shared, let's try the steps again but this time toggle the option to 'Manually' and back to 'Automatically'.


See the steps below:


How to organize your checklists

When you create a checklist list, it's easy to organize it. Here are a few things you can do: 
* Reorder items with drag and drop. Just drag the item in the list to the place you want. 
* Swipe to indent items. Swipe the list item right to indent and left to reverse the indent.
* Move checked items to the bottom automatically. Go to Settings > Notes, tap Sort Checked Items, then tap Manually or Automatically.
* Check items as you complete them or uncheck all items to start over.


Also, make sure you restart your iPhone as well: Restart your iPhone


Let us know how it goes!


Best regards.
