If the list is sorted by distance, select Switch to Sort By Name to sort it by name.
If the list is sorted by name, select Switch to Sort by Distance to sort it by distance.
Only one of the two options appears on the menu. If you see Switch to Sort By Name, the list is currently sorted by distance. If you see Switch to Sort By Distance, the list is currently sorted by name.
Switch to Show Logged/Not Logged
You can display either the caches you have not yet logged (the default) or the caches you have logged.
If the list contains not logged caches, select Switch to Show Logged to display logged caches.
If the list contains logged caches, select Switch to Show Not Logged to display the caches you have not yet logged.
Only one of the two options appears on the menu. If you see Switch to Show Logged, the current list contains caches you have not yet logged. If you see Switch to Show Not Logged, the current list contains caches you have already logged.

Warning: The symbol determines whether this item is considered a cache or a waypoint.

Similarly, if you change the symbol to one which represents a log type, the item will move from the not logged to logged geocaches list.
