FAQ

Short answers to the questions that come up most. Tap a question to open it. If yours isn’t here, the help center search covers every article.

Accounts and sign-in

Can someone else sign up?

No. Tagged is private and sign-in is invite only, so there’s no sign-up page.

Do I have to sign in on every device?

Once per phone or computer. It stays signed in after that.

How do I sign out?

On a computer, click your picture on the app bar, then Sign out. On a phone, open Settings → App and use Log out.

Sharing and privacy

Does the other person see everything I add?

Most of it. Areas, projects, upkeep, chores, meals and the household finances are shared. A project you make Private (from its ⋯ menu) shows only for you. Habits and countdowns are yours unless you turn on their Share with switch, and your focus record is always yours alone.

Can I keep a surprise off the other phone?

Yes. Use New Private Project from the + menu (or + New on a computer). It’s private from the start, so it never shows on the other phone.

Who gets a reminder for a shared project?

The person the project is assigned to. If it’s assigned to both of you, or nobody, you both get it.

Phone, computer and offline

Does it work with no signal?

The grocery list does: checks and changes wait on the phone and send when you’re back online, and the list opens with no signal once you’ve loaded it before. Everything else needs a connection.

Is there an app in the App Store?

No. On an iPhone, add Tagged to your home screen from Safari and it opens like an app. See Getting started.

Is there a desktop app?

Yes, for Windows. See The desktop app. On a Mac, use the browser.

Why don’t I get notifications on my iPhone?

They only work in Tagged opened from its home-screen icon, and only after you turn on Daily alert in Settings → Notifications.

Calendars and other apps

How do I get due dates on my phone’s calendar?

Subscribe to the calendar feed. For Apple Reminders, use Reminders sync.

Can I send a web page to Tagged?

Yes. Use the iPhone share sheet or the Brave extension on a computer. Both drop it in your Inbox.

Can I bring my recipes from Paprika?

Safety and backups

Where are my things backed up?

Everything in Tagged (projects, upkeep, calendar and settings) is backed up every night, and each backup is kept for 30 days. Photos and files stay in Tagged’s own storage.

Is the budget locked?

It can be. Set a 4-number PIN in Finance settings → Lock. See Bills, paychecks, cards and debts.

Something’s broken. Who do I tell?

On a computer, use Send feedback in the ? menu at the bottom of the app bar. It goes straight to the Inbox.

Still stuck? Send feedback from the ? menu at the bottom of the app bar on a computer. Back to the help center
