Bulk Tags - Nearly Four Years Later: Can the Product Team Provide an Update / Decision?

Question

https://community.simplifimoney.com/discussion/3439/ability-to-remove-tags-during-bulk-edit

This feature request has been open for nearly four years, and I’d really like to see the Simplifi product team provide an update.

Customers have repeatedly explained the value of this functionality and the unnecessary manual effort required without it. At this point, the community deserves more than an indefinitely active request with no clear status.

Has this request been evaluated? Is it on the product roadmap? If it’s not being considered, why?

I understand that product teams have competing priorities, but four years without a meaningful update is frustrating. We’re not asking for a commitment to deliver every requested feature; we’re asking for transparency about whether customer feedback is actually being considered.

Please have someone from the product team weigh in with a meaningful update.

Thanks for sharing the FAQ. I’ve read through it, and honestly, it reinforces my concern rather than addressing it.

The request has been active for nearly four years. According to your FAQ, Active simply means it’s open for voting and feedback, while In Review means it has actually been submitted to the product team.

So my question is straightforward: Has this request ever actually been submitted to the product team for consideration?

If it hasn’t, why not? And if it has, why has there been no decision or meaningful update in nearly four years?

I’m not expecting a commitment to deliver the feature. I’m expecting some accountability and transparency around whether longstanding customer requests are actually being evaluated.

Simply keeping a request active indefinitely and directing customers to continue voting isn’t a particularly meaningful feedback process.

Hi @JPK300,

I understand your concern, particularly given how long this request has remained active.

For more information on how Ideas are evaluated and what the different statuses mean, please take a look at our Ideas FAQ.

While I don't have any additional information to share about the status of this particular request, the FAQ provides more insight into how the Ideas process works.

Thanks!

I’ve already upvoted the request. That’s actually part of my frustration. This request has been active for nearly four years, and telling customers to continue upvoting it isn’t a substitute for product feedback or prioritization.

At what point does Quicken evaluate longstanding requests and communicate whether they’re likely to be addressed? Even if the answer is that it’s not currently planned, that would be more useful to the community than leaving requests open indefinitely with no visibility into their status.

I’d really like to see the product team provide some transparency around how these requests are evaluated and prioritized.
