Add a "newly added friends" section to the friends list

I love the friend categories feature. Unfortunately it has one major flaw for people who have friends in the "friends" section (aka uncategorised). When I add a new friend, they are automatically put into that section, which already has 60+ friends in it. If I can't fully remember the name they were using, they can get lost in that list. With a "recently added friends" section, it would be easy for me to find who I just added and put them in the correct group.

Hopefully that all makes sense, it was a bit hard to describe

HELLO! You can go to your name at the top and in the sub category "Activity" (sometimes you will have to scroll down) you will find

-your name- is now friends with -person- and -person2-

I hoped this helped a bit

Seeing it in your friends activity can be problematic, since those with a large number of friends have also very large activity lists. Would be a fall back option, but would still take some time. What the OP is suggesting is a good idea. Personally, I don't accept a lot of friend requests but could see how it would be benefitial. Cheers.

I would be nice if we could sort/filter by level, location, date added, games in common etc,

It's been 2 years since the original post and close to this has been implemented. Quite disappointing, as this is still an issue to this day.

I agree as I have had that issue too. For now just go to Activity then My Activity

What mlky says is true. Sometimes, 'My activiy' shows nothing, so it's still a good idea to have the 'Recently added friends' section, and it seems the developers are ignoring it..

As a Twitch streamer I get added by plenty of people. In order to continue adding them I ask em to trade Twitch cards. Some immediately do others don't. And they slip through the cracks because a week later I can't see any more who I added and check if I received their cards.
