What are you using for a data source? How are you displaying the data? What have you tried? You should be able to sort a list in Thunkable or sort a cloud-based spreadsheet, for example. Also, @domhnallohanlon is busy, fixing bugs and adding cool new stuff to Thunkable or whatever it is he does all day. 🙂 That’s kind of the point of a community forum. The community is here to help you. It’s really only necessary to tag @domhnallohanlon if you’ve exhausted all other options and have a re-produceable bug or a feature request that doesn’t already exist. And even then, you don’t have to tag him… you can just post it yourself: [https://docs.thunkable.com/bugs-and-feature-requests](https://docs.thunkable.com/bugs-and-feature-requests) ---

since you’re obviously using a list viewer to display your list, then make sure you add new items to the start of the list, not the end, by using a block like this: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/7/a/7a730a6d03df49e9811fde122ba3d0bf3a13efde.png) ---

Press button “Add” - the item gets added to the “top” - just as you wanted. (if you want new data to go to the end, click on the switch/slider so that it points to the right “add to end”. ) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/c/6/c6916688d34a1b6b405e7ce0948fc145896351a5.png) ---

I found that you are using a list display, I changed it to a display data display, but there is still no way!? ---

The DVL (Data Viewer List) will always take the order of the underlying table. You either use a List Viewer or design your own Data Viewer using the cloning method. ---
