What are tags?

Tags are a great way to organize your photos. Enter words that can be used as keywords or categories to describe the photo. For example you may want to enter names or events. You can also create unique tags to easily group your photos. ZoomIn tags are private and only available to you. When creating tags, remember these simple rules:

  • Case does not matter – so Adam is the same as adam
  • Multiple words are split into individual tags. Include them in quotes to keep them together.
  • Words such as “and” and “a” are not included unless you put them in quotes.
