Add tags
Tags would allow organization across lists and folders.
Say I have a few tasks that all have the tag #amazon, I could hit the tag and see what other things I need to grab from Amazon regardless of the list or location.
Another useful example would be for modules in a project, #backendAuth #frontendAuth #databaseStoreProcs, regardless of which sprint/list they're located in.

It’s the best way to group multiple tasks together

Was looking to suggest this feature and noticed this thread says "WE HAVE THIS". But To Do clearly does NOT have the feature that was described in the original post or in subsequent comments. It's not enough to just be able to add a hashtag to a task. You need to be able to easily access anything with those tags somewhere in the navigation, sort by tags, even be able to select multiple tags at once for accurate filtering. Can you get this added back to the backlog and get the suggestion changed back to "in progress" until it's fully developed?

The current implementation is too simplistic to be of any real use. I think the following 3 things are required to make tags useful:
1. There should be a separate field for tags (next to Remind me, Repeat, Add to my day, etc).
2. The tags should be visible on the task in the center pane (not only in the details pane of individual tasks).
3. There should be an option to filter and sort based on tags. -

Autocomplete is not working on the MacOS App :( . You have to type the whole tag each time.

I need this for grocery list, so I can add "store" tag or category.

Tags for tasks should also be in the task settings (as well as the date). With this feature we will be able to attach one or more tags to each task. Thus, a new section with a list of tags will be created, which can be disabled in the settings. Then, in the scheduled list or "my day" list, the task is displayed with the tag (the same as name of the list now).

Having #tag without abilities to manage it like creating filters and see/add/delete tags in specific places, makes tagging to be much less valuable.
It's needed to be drastically upgraded in order to make MS To Do a full alternative to Todoist, TickTick and likes.

Nope, still not working on iOS. This is pretty lame go-to-market - PM announcing it working across all platforms ;).

It would be great if it is possible to hide all tasks which are already completed when clicking on a tag.

This still does not work on iOS! As previously stated, we can see the blue links but clicking on them just edits the task name.

This doesn't work on the iOS app. You can create the blue link but nothing happens when you select the link.

How does it work? In Wunderlist it suggests labels/tags after you write # at least in web version. Do we have to remember all tags used before?

Are there plans to add a suggestion list?

This does not appear to be working for my on iOS. I an add a #tag but an it creates the blue link but I cannot click it to show a view with other tasks that are also using the same #tag ... Is this correct?

Great work, Marcel. I'm glad to see the someone from the Wunderlist team is working on the new app. I would like to make the switch, but I cannot do that until some critical features are completed: Subtasks, Folders, links to files and photos, & iPad/landscape support. Task sharing & comments would also be helpful. Keep at it...
