Sort and Filter playlists on iOS

I have several streaming services (Spotify, Tidal, Qobuz) connected to my Spotify S2 app on iOS. None of them seem to allow sorting or filtering playlists within the Sonos app, based on playlist name. This seems like a really basic feature, and it’s essential because I have thousands of playlists.  Does this feature truly not exist, or am I missing something?

Sonos doesn’t change the data presented by the streaming services. If you want to sort or filter, you need to do that work on each service, not within the Sonos app itself. Sonos only allows filtering / sorting of playlists that are generated within Sonos itself.

I can sort playlists in other apps, but the Sonos app ignores that sorting. For example, if I sort alphabetically in Qobuz, and then switch to Sonos, the playlists appear sorted from newest to oldest in Sonos.
 

Is there really no way to change this, or to search or filter playlists in Sonos? Doesn’t seem like a lot to ask…
