Watchlist sorting options do not work

Signing out and back in worked. Thanks so much.

@Jolene​ 

I don’t know if I should start a new ticket or not, but the problem persists.

app version is 15.3

Below is a screenshot, three of these titles are quite old, going back to the 80s even but as you can see they are sorted by date added and not by release date, even though I have sorting options set to release date.

I’ve tried all of your suggested options and they don’t work.

@JarekReanimated​ It looks like you are in Canada? We can only sort on the data we have and for Raw Deal see https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091828/releaseinfo/

and for Colors see https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094894/releaseinfo/

These are clearly not the first release dates in Canada and corrections will be submitted, but this explains the misordering. We will ask the data team to look at how these bad dates were approved. 

Hope this helps. 

Thanks for taking the time to reply Col, I’m glad it will be looked into. Also, thank you so much for building IMDb many years ago! 

@JarekReanimated​ The release date edits have now been processed; let us know if any other titles are in the wrong order due to bad Canadian release dates. 

Here are a bunch more, but this is just a fraction of my watchlist which includes over 750 titles, I’m sure there are many more errors. Is there a way to change my account to American so I see proper dates, at least until the bug is fixed?

@JarekReanimated​ Thanks for the reports; these have all now been fixed (it might be a little while longer before all are live in the app). 

@JarekReanimated​ Can you upload a screen-grab of “You > Settings > Display” when set to the US and confirm you have restarted the app with these settings? It is the “Region” setting which is important here, as in:

Also, please upload a screen-grab of any titles which are still in the wrong order with US settings.
