Microsoft Team - Default Folder/File Sort

Is it possible to change the automatic sort default from "last edited" to alphabetical order?

kimbal5See my answer here: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/microsoft-teams/setting-default-sort-for-files-tab/m-p/2788761#M100726

 

Summary: set the default sort in the default view from the SharePoint site rather than from within Teams.

 

For users complaining about tablet/mobile not working, make sure the "set as default view for mobile devices" at the bottom of the settings page is also selected. Often there's a different "mobile view" that is set as default for mobile devices for SP lists and libraries.

TylerH1 it simply does not work like this for the mobile App (Android). You can select all those checkboxes and the Teams App will still ignore your view and sort by last modified without any chance of manually/automatically changing it...
