Feature description

Sort symbols (* for example) before chars

Why do you want this feature?

Because I want to prioritize some ppl in contacts list with adding a symbol

  • AaPrioritized Person (looks bad)
  • * Prioritized Person (better I guess)

Additional information

Note: Didn't tested if this is still same with symbols other than *
Note2: Are there any specification for how we should sort symbols/chars/numbers?
Note3: This issue also related with FossifyOrg/Phone app

    I use # for some special numbers and AOSP contacts app sorts them to the top of the list.

    @Cwpute

    Isn't it what the Favourites tab is all about ?
    Maybe your request could be adapted so that 1) contacts with a user-defined symbol get treated as favourites 2) favourite contacts appear at the top of the search results.
