Tags to organize entries
I've used 1Password and Bitwarden. They are both lack of generic feature - organization of entries.
Dealing with Search is a great way. But just full text search makes search results somekind of mess.
Having ability to Tag passwords and other entry types will make UX much better:
- search results can be ranked by tag names, titles and only then other fields
- ability to Pin tags into sidebar can be very handy (do not list all the available tags like 1Password do - it's useless)
- tags help to create many view perspectives onto my data
Please do not implement Folders like Bitwarden do. It is so restrictive. Implement tags instead with special UI so that specific tags could behave like folders (because many users prefer folders).

We use tags in 1Password to organize our passwords. It’s an essential feature for managing the size and complexity of our vaults, as we have thousands of entries. We’re holding off on transiting to Proton Pass until this is implemented or we find a reasonable workaround. Thank you.

I would buy family protonpass if there would be tags

I would seriously consider switching from Bitwarden if this was implemented.
This feature was requested for Bitwarden in 2018 and they still didn't implement it :( -

I have migrated from Enpass. Loved the functionality for taging they have implemented.

I am using Tags in 1password to identify accounts that are setup to use my main and backup yubikey. That will be a need to have for me to transition to ProtonPass.

Tags is a CRITICAL, quality-of-life feature missing in Proton Pass. For me, it's the #1 advantage of 1Password over other PMs and the feature that makes me miss it the most. It's disheartening to see it still missing from the roadmap (https://proton.me/blog/pass-roadmap-spring-2025).
In case someone reading wants a poor man's workaround to not having tags, I've been using #hashtags on a dedicated "tags" field on each item. Adding "#" to the tags and in the searchbar, helps to avoid matching words on other fields or the notes sections, but it's not perfect.
Given how tags can help implement folder systems (even if no fully-fledged folders feature exists), I really hope they prioritize this feature soon.

As a Visionary account holder, there are only two things that are preventing me from switching from 1Password to Proton Pass: one is that there are still a LOT of websites for which Proton Pass doesn't detect and present passwords. The other is the absence of tags. I have a lot of client passwords; it's not practical to have a vault for each client, it's impractical to store them all in one a separate vault, and it's impractical to add the client name to each login's title. Tags, such as exist in 1Password, are the ideal solution.

Please this function must be in Proton Pass

In my current password manager I have more then 500 passwords. These are VPN connections to customers, passwords for different customer system types like databases or other internal servers. It is very difficult to categorize them just by name, and also creating vaults is not helpful (have to decide between a vault by customer or a vault by system type, but want both). So Categories or Tags would be really helpful.

It has been two years since people have requested tags. Tags are an important organizational tool. Without tags I am almost considering going back to 1password.

Yes, tagging would help. I can't believe that it doesn't exist. I want to move from Lastpass, but there are many shortcomings of PP that make it a no-go. Also, I don't understand the limit of Vaults, or (maybe, better yet) I don't understand where there aren't subfolders in the Vaults. Because I want to really organize my accounts (as I move away from Lastpass) and PP doesn't have that capability.
To me, both sub-folders, tags, and increasing the number of Vaults should be an IMMEDIATE APPROVAL by their Development Staff. It's hard for me to understand what are the reasons why not. Because they don't have sub-folders in Vaults, which is a drawback that can be overcome with multiple vaults. Yet, you can get to 50 Vaults very fast, if you organize your stuff really well.

Currently, Proton Pass offers a secure way to store and manage their passwords. However, as the number of saved passwords grows, it becomes increasingly challenging for users to organize and retrieve specific entries efficiently. To address this, we propose introducing a "Tags" feature that allows users to categorize and filter passwords seamlessly, similar to the tagging functionality in 1Password.
Objective
Enhance the organizational capabilities of Proton Pass by implementing a Tags system, enabling users to categorize, filter, and manage their saved passwords more effectively.The Tags feature will allow users to:
Add Tags: Assign one or more tags to any password entry.
Filter by Tags: Search and filter password entries based on tags.
Manage Tags: Create, edit, delete, and rename tags easily. -

For right now I'm making multiple vaults. I have a single user account so I can make it work, but I migrated from 1Password and I do miss the tags! Thanks.

In addition, I want to create a sub-tag (tags under a tag) to manage more. For example, I want to Tag "Travel" and manage all travel related passwords and identify. Then I want to add "Travel/Airline" tag under "Travel" to see only Airline related passwords.

I initially came here to cast my vote for folders (and I have), but I'm in agreement that tags may be a better, more flexible way to go.
While using Bitwarden, I've gotten lost trying to find where I saved entries that could fall under multiple folders; this has happened many times. If I could use tags, I would assign all applicable tags, and I'd more easily find what I'm looking for, assuming the Tags feature was implemented well.
Some thoughts on how I might implement tags. It obviously doesn't have to be all at once, or even all of them, but:
1. Filter by multiple tags at once. We can quickly drill down to the specific entry/entries we want. Especially if they're used in addition to search.
2. Other tags that are not currently used for filtering could show up beneath the login/alias/card/note/identity, so they can be more easily differentiated at a glance. If many tags are applied to an entry, the tags shown could be limited to 1 line (that, perhaps, scrolls horizontally), or 2 lines, or be truncated, or all can be options for the user to choose their experience.
3. The ability to pin tags. If Tags are included on the left, like Vaults, then we could either only see pinned tags there, or we can be allowed to collapse/expand the Tags. Taken further, pinned tags could be shown at all times, and/or shown at the top of the expanded list.
If they're included in the Search, and I imagine they would be, the pinned tags could be the first, or the tags in Search could work on a "most recently used" or "most frequently used" sorting method. Or, again, user's choice.
4. Extend the Sharing feature. Just as entire vaults can be shared with specific people, it would be amazing if the same could be done for tags, resulting in being able to share entries that may exist across multiple vaults. For example, I could use a "Parents" tag on entries I've saved for them, but also my own personal entries to which I'd like them to have access.

Note that tags can be implemented as nested, so they cover the requirement for nested folders as well.

I really enjoy tags on 1password and miss them on Proton Pass. The option to have only the Pinned entries and/or creating different vaults for different kinds of passwords are limitating.

Yes, I fully support this request: it's probably the main thing I miss about 1Password.

"Please do not implement Folders like Bitwarden do" I was about to request folders, but tags sound like a much better solution!

Tags are the main reason I am sticking with 1Password for now.
