How to use Smart Transfer and Sort Items in Chests in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Image by Pro Game Guides

If you open any chest, you'll see two small indicated buttons beneath the chest's inventory. The button will vary depending on the platform you are playing on, but should be displayed here.

Smart Transfer will allow you to transfer all of and only the items from your inventory that are already present in the chest you are inspecting with one key press. So, in the example above, pressing T would move both the Hardwood and the Dry Wood from our inventory to the chest at the same time, without bringing over anything else.

Pressing the button indicated for Sort will allow you to do just that. You can sort both chests and your personal inventory four ways: item name, item type, amount of energy restored, or resale value. Both of these functions should come in handy as Disney Dreamlight Valley adds more and more items and ingredients each update.
