My Question or Issue

Recently, when I want to add a new song to one of my playlists, they're displayed in a seemingly random order. I have more than 120 playlists, so it takes me AGES to find the right one. I thought it would get better with time, but I still can't locate anything I need; nothing makes sense, and nothing is in any kind of order.

The playlists are sorted correctly in my library, so I don't understand why it's not the same for adding songs.

I agree with rbosy. I have over 100 playlists and save a lot of songs. I haven't saved many songs since this change a few weeks ago. It's pretty frustrating. The change makes the app much less useful for me.

I have the same problem, also on Android.

I would file this as a bug, since it appeared this spring after adding the option to sort your playlists in "Relevant" order (how ever someone but me can decide what's "relevant" is another question).
I can now select to sort the playlists in My Library in "Custom" order, which is the same order I've had since before this feature was added, BUT when adding a track to a playlist, the playlists show up in what to me appears to be completely random order (probably by most recently used).
