Organise with tags
Use tags to categorise and filter tasks, notes, and journal entries across the app.
What are tags?
Tags are labels you can attach to tasks, notes, and journal entries to categorise them across features. Unlike lists, which group items in one place, tags let you slice your content in flexible ways — for example, tagging items as "Work", "Personal", or "Urgent" regardless of which list they sit in.
Adding tags
- Open a task, note, or journal entry.
- Tap the Tags field.
- Choose from your existing tags, or type a new tag name to create one.
- Select as many tags as you like, then confirm.
Tags are saved immediately. You can add or remove them at any time by editing the item.
Adding tags to journal entries is a PRO feature.
Filtering by tags
Tags become especially useful when you want to find related items across the app:
- Tasks — Open the Tasks tab, tap the filter option, and select one or more tags. Only tasks with those tags will be shown.
- Notes — Open the Notes tab and filter by tags to narrow down your grid.
- Journal — Open the Journal tab and filter by tags to find reflections on a particular topic.
You can also group tasks by tags in the task browser to see all your tasks organised under their tag headings.
Managing your tags
Tags are created inline the first time you use them — there is no separate setup step. Once a tag exists, it is available across all features.
If you use shared lists, tags are shared with collaborators when you create or update items. This keeps everyone on the same page when categorising shared work.
Tips for using tags effectively
- Keep it simple — A small number of meaningful tags is more useful than dozens of granular ones. Start with broad categories and add more only when you need to.
- Use alongside lists — Tags complement lists rather than replacing them. A task might live in a "Holiday" list but also be tagged "Booking" to group it with bookings from other lists.
- Cross-reference features — Tag a task, its related notes, and your journal reflection with the same tag to connect everything about a project or topic.
