Sorting by tag - new implementation required - ipad

Idea

Well,

I use Evernote on Mac, Win, Ipad with GTD setting by tag.

So, on Ipad, I need to sort notes by tag and not only by creation date or title.

Thanks a lot for this new implementation.

Hi.  Would it help to have saved searches for specific tags or combinations of tags?  As in tag:Next... ??

It sounds like you're using the TSW process that suggests sorting by tags.
As you found out, that only works on the Win/Mac platforms and only in certain views
My suggestion is to find a different process that doesn't rely on sorting by tags
For example; as @gazumped suggested shortcuts to saved searches; you can have Now, Soon, Next .... shortcuts without any fudging

This is a good one whether you use TSW or not, upvoted.

NO, because it's not possibile tu refine saved searches.

You need to face the fact that you can't sort by tag.
You need to find an alternative method to look at your data.

For example: After retrieving your "Now" tasks, what refinement do you need to the search results

By your answer I understand that the only workaround is to do a saved search, but I do not want to make a "saved search" like "Now" or other.

I prefer work on my ipad such as my Mac or Win.

I too would find a Sort By Tag feature very handy. I’ll try the saved search workaround, but the feature request is still a valid one.

Yes please, implement the "sort-by tag" view as it was in the previous version of evenote for desktop! I find this view very handy too. By this view I mean having a set of notes screened in evernote and see them in an order based on the alphabetical order of the tags given to those notes (see photo attached). Having this sort-by tag option allows me to see all the actions (each note in EN = action) that I have to do in a specific context (such as Home, at work, etc.) in order of importance.
