A user tag is like a little note you attach to a user’s profile.

If you’re at all familiar with RES for Reddit, it works the same way ~~except I don’t believe it keeps a history of why the tag was added as is the case with RES.~~

To enable it go to your Settings > User Tags > Enable User Tags. From there you can also track how many up and downvotes you’ve given someone. One item of note, however, is that the tags don’t sync across devices, so if you use Voyager on both iPhone and iPad the recorded information won’t match.

Voyager stores the source comment/post of the tag if you have it enabled.

I thought you set the user tag directly from the user’s profile, not a comment/post

if you hold and tap username you can tag. If you do that it will store a reference to the comment/post you tagged from

Got it, I was also going to ask about how to tag my own account, but that works for this. Thank you!

You’re right. Thanks for pointing that out.

Are you asking how to use them or how it functions?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

I use them as a flag not to engage certain users that I don't want to fully block (yet). Like some of the always alone folks who refuse to take any action to help themselves, I won't reply to them but if I don't block them I still benefit from seeing the good advice others give them.

Thanks for asking because I’ve never understood them before now
