Sorting watchlist by release date is broken on the app on iOS.

  This was an issue about a year ago or so, I reported it but I can't find it the thread for some reason so I am creating a new one. When sorting your watchlist on the iOS app, by release date, not everything is where it should be. I'm positive it was fixed and working until recently.

Using the latest version of iOS, iPhone 17, latest version of the IMDb app.

This is not an issue with Safari on mobile, it's just the app.

Thanks for the problem report, however, as last time this is not an issue with the app, but instead is due to faulty local release data for Canada.  The reason for the difference between the site and the app is that the app uses local release dates for watchlist sort orders, whereas the site still uses the (less helpful) earliest release date.  We have fixed the Canadian release dates of the three titles shown in your screen-shot and the sort order should be correct within the next few hours.  Please let us know if there are other titles with incorrect Canadian release dates which are out of sequence in your watchlist.
