How to Change Order of Photos

Hello DARoth ,
Welcome to the NETGEAR Community!
I understand that you would like your photos to be displayed on your Mueral Canvas in a particular. The photos on your Mueral Canvas are randomized due to the "image shuffle" randomization feature of the Meural Canvas.
Please follow the steps below to turn off the image shuffle feature on your Meural Canvas:
- Navigate to https://my.meural.netgear.com.
- Next, select your initials icon at the top right of the screen.
- Now select "Canvases".
- Now navigate to "PLAYLIST BEHAVIOR".
- Finally, toggle off "Image Shuffle".
When image shuffle is turned off the images will be played in the order of the uploaded album.

"Image Shuffle" was already turned on in the settings. The problem seems to occur when the images are uploaded into Canvas. Is there a way that I can reorder them after they have been uploaded? Looking at previous posts, it looks like there was a way to do this in the past but this feature is no longer available.
Hello DARoth ,
Thank you for the update!!
This can be accomplished by adding your works to a playlist
Please follow the on how to order uploaded photos once they have been added to a playlist:
- Navigate to https://my.meural.netgear.com.
- Next, select your initials icon at the top right of the screen.
- Now select "Playlist".
- Select your desired playlist.
- Now Select "Manage" (Located on the right side of the screen under "Send to Meural").
- Finally, reorder your works by dragging your art.

Kevin,
Your solution may work for Playlists but I have uploaded the photos as "Linked Albums." The albums are in Apple Photos (iCloud). The "Manage" function is currently available for Playlists but not for Linked Albums. Can this feature be added to Linked Albums? In the meantime, I have tried to figure out what the logic is that Meural uses when uploading and displaying the images in the Linked Albums. The order doesn't seem to be based on creation date or file name. Can you find out what it is?
Thanks,
Alice
Hello DARoth ,
Thank you for the feedback!
Glad the proposed solution resolved your issue.
The order of the linked album may be based on the album's photo order on the initial album link. Please try to unlink your linked album change the order and then relink it.
Please note any changes in the order in your next response.
I look forward to hearing from you!
Best,
