Describe a description of the new feature

What I am missing is a way to add personal tags/labels which i can add to the filter. They should be backupable and sould be shown on exported lists. Background: If you have a big amount of different apps, it might be handy to sort them by topics. E.g. list all games, list all calculator apps, etc. Additionally adding labels/tags allows to give a personal rating - eg. if you want to recommend your most favorite apps to a friend.

And if possible - a notes field could be also handy :-)

Describe the solution you'd like

• Adding an input field with dropdown of already defined tags/labels
• Add the info to internal database
• add tags-field to export
• let filters accept tags

The tags should be backupable - so you could import the backup on a new phone and install your tagged apps first (and you could have additional infos like "app needs configuration" or "appdata not backupped via google", if you addded the info on the old phone

Describe alternatives you've considered

Did not find any app providing something like that... But - at least for me - such function would be VERY handy :-)

Additional context

Thanks a lot :-)

Thanks. Tags is something I myself is looking forward to implementing. macOS' finder offers a similar feature which is quite handy if you're used to it. Each tag comes with a label and a colour which makes it easy to find items you're looking for. This also goes quite well with our already-existing colour-based labelling. Sorting and filtering by labels also make sense. But for rating, the user have to devise their own method, because it does not make sense to implement it separately.

Regarding notes, yes. It can be added as it has certain usages.

Perfect - and yes, I don't need a rating feature either. I meant it the other way round - one could use the tagging feature to rate the apps: e.g. my most beloved apps would simply get a tag "rating 1" or "rating 2". So I could easily filter for the best :-)

Looking forward to the upcoming versions :-) Would be great, if you find some time! Unfortunately I'm not deep into programming, so I'm not able to provide any help or even a pullrequest.

Obtainium app does tagging very well with a simple implementation

Existing tags in App Manager have two properties: Colour and label. Colour is good for recognition and label is there for verification. This idea will be retained if and when such features are implemented. Categories, on the other hand, directly collide with an app's appCategory present in its manifest (though it's largely unused by the applications).
