Latest version for iPad, what happend to the sort function?

I have very big lists and I can't live without that function, I need to be able to sort the list descending.

So my latest adds will end up in TOP, not bottom.

I also need this function in my iPhone aswell...

This has been removed in the new version of the iPad app.

Hopefully it will be added again in the future.

Removed...? That's kinda stupid... As this function is one of the things I really wanted for a long time, and when it finally shows up it's removed again.

Thanks for your answer.

Hey @vaux

Could you please check out http://community.spotify.com/t5/Help-iOS-iPhone-iPad-iPod-Touch/Why-can-t-I-sort-playlist-by-last-added-anymore/m-p/976955#M40950

I've gave some information about it there ^.^

Sorry for the inconvenience!

Thanks, but I still don't see any reason for removing that function from an existing version.
Even if there is a new super-spotify under development... (that only might have that function..?)

I can only hope that this new super-spotify app will have the sorting functions that are compareable to the Windows version of Spotify, eg sort on track, artist, time, album ,added date. It's not a tricky thing to add and it should have been added years ago.
It's a real pain in the ass right now with big playlists in my iOS devices.

What is going on at Spotify? Sleeping all day long, figuring out how to remove more features from the players? Why is this function not back yet?
