Tag list out of order on Web App

meoge

When choosing a tag from the web app drop down they are listed in a random order. At first I thought maybe they were recently used, but that isn't the case. The phone app on android lists them alphabetically. Here is a screenshot from my web app

Ideally there would be a small section at the top that was recently used (Christmas 2024 for example) and then the full list alphabetically, but if that isn't possible then they should be in alphabetical order just like on the phone app.

Hello @meoge,

Thanks for reaching out! I am not sure this would be treated as a bug, but I could see this being submitted as an idea post if you would like. This way, other users would be able to vote for and follow this idea.

I'm fine with that, but if it's not a bug then why is the phone app in alphabetical order and the web app is random? a similar issue was mentioned last year and was fixed in a prior version

Hello @meoge,

After verifying on our side, it seems the tags in the web application for Quicken Simplifi are also listed alphabetically. Where specifically, are you looking in the web application?

Thanks,

I'm opening a transaction and then adding a tag

I see this as well when splitting transactions. Pretty much everywhere in the web app UI when using the drop-down list to add tags.

The tags applied to a transaction appear in no particular order (that I can determine). This makes it very hard to confirm I have the desired tags applied to similar transactions. I am solely a web app user, so not sure how this compares to the mobile app. I am coming from Quicken desktop where the tags are displayed in alphabetical order.

There appear to be bug reports (some fixed, some not) for other ordering issues with tags, so I feel pretty confident reporting this as a bug rather than a feature request.

When I select a Tag in a Transaction, the tags are not sorted alphabetically.

In the iOS apps they are sorted.
