Persistent sorting in Projects view

Hi Figma team,

I'd love to see sorting preferences persist across sessions in the Projects view. Currently, every time I navigate into a project and return to the home screen, the sort order resets to default.

Our team numbers all projects (01, 02, 03…) to maintain a clear workflow overview. Having to manually re-apply alphabetical sorting every single time is a small but repetitive friction point that interrupts the flow.

It would be great if Figma could remember the last used sort order, ideally per user or workspace. This seems like a relatively simple improvement that would benefit many teams who rely on consistent project naming conventions.

If this is already possible and I'm missing it, I'd love to know how.

Thanks for considering this.

Best,

Justin Eleveld

We absolutely need this! In Home and folder views, the “Sort by” dropdown in the top right hand corner offers to sort alphabetically, by date created or last modified. However the settings reset very frequently and it’s not persistant. It must be a bug, because it doesn’t feel intentional. Should be a user preference (not team). Seems indeed like a small fix with a great effect! Thanks for taking action on this Figma! Please take action on this 🥺❤️
