  There’s SO MUCH potential with the tags feature! I really wish it were more featured and supported. We need the ability to sort and organize tags. We need much better search methods, like an easy access list to find tags. I love being able to #tags in order to easily create new tags, so please don’t take that! Please just add sortability and searchability aspects to make it top notch!

  Thanks for your feedback and suggestions about the tags feature! I’ve forwarded your request for sorting, organizing, and improved search methods to the team for consideration.

  Yes, the tags needs a LOT of work.. and by far the most useful upgrade to Day One that could be done.
  
  Tags *NEED* to be first class citizens in Day One for maximum benefit.
  I’ll bullet point what could be added.
  
  * Tags visible on the SIDEBAR, either above or below journals
  * Color code tags (like journals)
  * Tag icons
  * Searchability
  * Sortability
  * Renameability
  * Filter Options (e.g. entries WITHOUT a tag, or those containing TWO tags, etc)
  * Hierarchical Tags
