This might be impossible because of reasons, but could you recreate the structure of the binder in the structure of the folders inside a .scriv?
There’s no Scrivener for mobile - and honestly, it would be silly to create one - but I sometimes want to look up a scene on the go when I only have my phone with me, and it’s always hit-and-miss until I eventually find the document that scene is in. This is frustrating, especially since the numbering doesn’t have a logic to it that’s obvious if you don’t quite remember the order in which you created certain documents.
But if it’s in any way possible, could you implement it that the inside of a .scriv looks a bit more like the binder? Maybe with folder and document names after the number you need for Scrivener’s own book keeping?
The numbering when using folder synchronisation is not intended to be logical, it is what tells Scrivener where the content in this file should go in your Binder. That number is the internal ID for that item in the project. If you want logical numbers, there is an option in the sync panel, Prefix file names with numbers (in German, Präfix-Dateinamen mit Nummern), that will number things in their binder order. That can make things much easier on systems that sort things alphabetically, keeping your scene names meaningful can also help a lot.
I can’t quite find the option you mention, but I’ll keep looking. (Found it!)
And my scene names are very meaningful indeed, they even have the chapter and scene number in them, so this should work wonderfully
I don’t sync (yet) so never looked at those options before so I’m guessing the defaults are what I see. Mine has that Prefix with numbers option already set.
