Hi and thanks for the new platform. I was wondering if anyone knows a way to sort the conversation responses from newest to oldest? Some of the strings are getting quite long and we have to scroll to where we might have last read. Thanks for any tips! ---

Also if you want newest select “latest” at top of any thread. ---

yeah on my computer it is easy to find new posts quickly but on my phone the long threads are annoying, have to scroll for 30 seconds to see the new posts. ---

Not sure what phone and browser. With iPhone / Safari (and I believe Chrome). When you see a long topic and scroll, hold your finger on the number of threads and a new mini window will appear where you can jump to topic or to end. Not sure if this makes sense or if the screenshot helps? You can also do “jump to” for last post ![IMG_8538](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex004/uploads/waterpoloexchange/original/1X/b581364a7044193fd6d9ecdd8509091b819bd2db.png) ---

There is also an app available for iOS. I find it easier than the phone browser. > **[‎Discourse Hub](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/discourse-hub/id1173672076)** > > ‎Discourse is the 100% open source discussion platform built for the next decade of the Internet.

Thanks for sharing the app link! I downloaded and it’s a great solution. When I open a topic it automatically shows the comments with my first unread comment - perfect.
