Custom Tags in Blippit Boards (2026 app ver. 3+)

January 1, 2026

Creating a Custom tag is useful for your own individual needs when you want to have a tag that doesn't appear in the core collection of ready-to-use tags provided in the app. It's a 'just for you' tag.

A custom tag
  • can be filtered on by the app to find boards quickly
  • can be the sole focus of, or included as, report criteria
  • is not included in charts.
