  5. Return to your inbox to see tags displayed instantly

Whether you're sorting leads, identifying VIPs, or tracking follow-ups—Contact Tags make it easy to keep your conversations organized.


Managing Contact Tags

To get the most out of Contact Tags:

  • Regularly review and update tags to keep things accurate and tidy

  • Add tags during or after a conversation to retain context over time

Once you're done, simply swipe to close your tab and continue messaging.


Frequently Asked Questions

What are Contact Tags used for?
Contact Tags help you categorize and organize your contacts for better inbox visibility. You can create tags like “Follow Up,” “High Priority,” or “Do Not Text.”

Can I use tags in group chats?
No. At this time, tags only display for one-on-one conversations. Group inboxes or group messages do not support tag visibility.

How many tags are visible in the inbox?
Up to 3 tags are shown in the conversation preview. If a contact has more than 3 tags, you'll see a “+N more” indicator.

Can I see or change tags from the inbox?
No. Tags are displayed in the inbox, but they can only be managed from the Contact Card.

Will my tag visibility setting sync across devices?
The Show Tags setting is local to your Android device. It does not sync across the web or other devices.

What happens if a contact has no tags?
Nothing extra is shown, keeping your inbox clean and focused.

Are tags shown in push notifications?
No. Tags are only visible in the inbox conversation preview—not in push or in-app notifications.
