Logging afterwards which means caches are out of order and they have mucked up trackables

I live just north of Sydney and a geocacher organised a bunch of new caches to be published all at the same time, a week ahead of Sydney GeoQuest. 

Yesterday I went to an event before the caches were published then as a group we went and found a series of them. After coming home I began to log everything we found during the day on my phone and I finished them on my computer today.. 

 

Being Australian, I find some of my dates can be off. I had to put some of the logs back a day. 

 

Well after finishing up all the logs and adding my trackables, I noticed the order is out, even though I took the care to add them in the correct order. It's also thrown my trackable logs out too. Is there a way of fixing this?

Stuff like this won't get fixed.  We just need to work around it.

 

Mixing the use of phone and computer for logging triggers the problem, something about the way Groundspeak registers the time of day you submitted the log, doing it differently.  Log a particular day only with Groundspeak's or another mobile app, or only via the website, and you shouldn't see the problem.

It is funny though. I still have the issue. Today I went geocaching and I logged everything on my phone not long after doing it. But for some reason it still on my trackables has the last two on different days and the second day has not even happened! So how does that happen when I found them within 30 minutes of each other?
