The RadListView control is obsolete and will be removed in Q2 2026. Use the RadCollectionView control instead. The RadCollectionView is a complete, ground-up rewrite of the ListView. The RadCollectionView offers improved performance, enhanced features, and a modernized approach to managing lists of data. The RadCollectionView incorporates all of the ListView's key features. More about the differences between both components and how to migrate to the new RadCollectionView is available in the Migrating the Telerik .NET MAUI RadListView to RadCollectionView article.

.NET MAUI ListView Sorting

Updated on Mar 11, 2026

The ListView can be used to sort the visualized data. This can be achieved by adding different SortDescriptors to its SortDescriptors collection. There are two types of descriptors shipped with our code.

PropertySortDescriptor

You can sort the data by a property value from the class that defines your business items. This descriptor exposes the following properties:

• PropertyName—Defines the string name of the property that is used to retrieve the key to sort by.
• SortOrder—Specifies sort order to ascending or descending.

DelegateSortDescriptor

This descriptor enables you to sort by a custom key (for example, some complex expression combining two or more properties) instead of being limited by the value of a single property. This descriptor exposes the following properties:

• SortOrder—Sets the sort order to ascending or descending.
• Comparer—Defines the Compare method used by the internal IComparer.

Bindable Sort Descriptors

The SortDescriptors collection of the ListView supports binding, which means you can modify the sort descriptors directly from the ViewModel.
