Right now my nodes say published by "author name 19:02". How can I change it to display 12 hour time 7:02?


Question: Looking up for an item in a list and different table styles in iOS
Answer: IDEA 1: Grouping

Can you group items in the second table (plain table) further? If so, the interface is much simplified.

IDEA 2: Filtering

If IDEA 1 is impossible to follow, then you can do another thing. Implement a filter feature to the long list. Just place an icon at the top of the list. Clicking on it should bring a new page. Provide checkboxes, sliders, or some other facility according to your situation. Avoid the search bar if possible -- users don't know what words you have used in your list.

IDEA 3: Sorting

If IDEA 2 fails, then you must sort and present the list manually. Think about the options again and decide which are the most used options? Guess what most users want. Show those options first!

IDEA 4: Visual cues

Use icons or pictures relating to the actions/properties of the items in the list. This allows easy scanning.
