Tags

Tags allow you to give additional context to your tasks. You might want to introduce tags such as #high priority to indicate the urgency of a task. Or #call to indicate that a task involves you calling someone.

Tags allow you to view your tasks by a given context. E.g., show me all tasks that have a high priority.

To add one or more tags to a task, do the following:

• Select a task
• Click Add tags on the task details pane
• Start typing the name of the tag that you would like to add. You don't need to include the # character.

To remove a tag, you can simply click the X button on the tag.
