I have a lot of logs saved, so they e.g. take more than one screen. So when I need to find a log (because I e.g. did not use the direct share action when it was created or if that failed) I have to search it. This currently is hard as the log is named logcat_MM-DD-YYYY_HH-MM-SS.txt and sorted by this, which sorts it quite random as you can see on the screenshot.
I e.g. could like to rename the log and find it for that reason.
Solution
Name it "properly" like: logcat_YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS.txt, which automatically sorts correctly.
After all, this is also the only way to "properly" format dates 😉
