L'appli est trop nice, mais il faudrait que les choses se place en ordre du plus proche au plus loin

Response from developer

Bonjour Bloom17cslaurentides, Merci pour ton retour, et ravi que l’app te plaise ! Par défaut, les événements sont déjà triés automatiquement du plus proche au plus lointain. Si ton app est passée en mode de tri manuel, appuie sur Trier en haut à gauche, puis confirme avec Trier. Les événements seront à nouveau triés du plus proche au plus lointain. Si ça ne fonctionne pas comme prévu, tu peux m’écrire à facundo@findappiness.co. Merci, Facundo
