Can you upload photos to Photo Stream and keep them in a specific order?

I'm trying to create a Photo Stream with 95 photos showing my dog grow up, so I need the photos to stay in the order that I upload them in which is oldest to newest. 

  • Is there a way to do that?
  • Is there a way to reorder photos in an existing Photo Stream?

      Once again Roku responds with a stock answer. The answer to your question was found nowhere in that FAQ. I have the same issue and cannot figure out how to arrange the slides into a specific order. For this reason, lack of real technical support, and the fact the Roku seems to just not care, I will be searching for another product.

        I have the same question, and it's sad but no surprise that Roku's response could have come from a bot with a low I.Q. If a real Roku employee responds to posts, they are apparently not encouraged to read the OP's question.

        From the browser view, and from the Android app, it is not possible to drag & re-order. When you laboriously upload at most 20 pix at a time, the order in which they are displayed seems absolutely random.

        I will comment, having tried several Android apps for this purpose, I have found none that do all (or any) of the following:

        - when mirroring, show pix in landscape mode

        - let the user decide the display order

        - give the user the choice of how long each image is displayed.

        I don't want to spend my time inserting the pix into a powerpoint or google slides document, but to get what I'd like, that may be necessary.
