Desktop Encounter Sorting get set on mobile with no way to change it.

A few people are still struggling with mobile filters. I think what's happening is they've set up some sorting options (Like oldest first, or last uploaded) on desktop and then login on a mobile device and can't change that.

I don't think adding all the options for sorting is a great option because it's a lot of UI for a mobile platform and I feel like people only use a couple of them regularly. I also hid certain filters because they are huge PITA on mobile (Date selectors specifically)

Couple of ideas:

1. Reset sorting options to default when someone logs in on a small screen device. That way the list is being sorted in an expected way and filters can be used to find encounters.
2. Add a couple of key sorting options (I'm thinking Latest Upload/Newest Upload).

I'm open to other thoughts on this too.

These things are saved in localStorage, so they can’t persist between devices.

I think adding the sort options back in on mobile would be best, more specifically Uploaded time / encounter time since as a mobile user, that's probably what they'd be looking at the most.
