Contrary to classic apps, where you could add an in app sort, you can’t in the new Glide apps.

You can, as seen in your screenshot, sort the collection by a field.  
Then if you want in app sort, the best thing to do is to use a table collection.

Each user can sort the table collection by clicking on any of the headers name of the table:
