I have been (occasionally) using the smart phone app, and appreciate that it is possible to 'save' our favorite runs, to quickly see those selected runs.
However, I do not see any way to 'sort' the listings. Best I can tell, they just appear in the order the user has added them.
It would be great if they could be sorted alphabetically, or by distance from my current location, or by 'runnability'.

Does any of that exist (and I'm just not aware of how to do it), or (failing that) is anything like this in the works?

Hi Rob,

That feature doesn't exist yet - it hasn't made it to the top of the priority list for the volunteer programming team. That being said giving people more options to find a reach (either a saved reach, or something else) via both the app and the web is high on the priority list. I suspect that this is also where we'll add the option to pull in a forecast if you want. 

The problem with list views (particularly on mobile) is that people want them to be as information dense to the things they care about and to not show things they don't care about. Of course, everyone has a different opinion about what is important. I want to address this use case but there are more pressing concerns related to reliability and bugs that probably need to be addressed before we can tackle this problem.

Thanks,
Owen
