Folders and lists are good at one way of organizing: a task lives in one list, a note in one folder. Real work cuts across those lines. A single task might belong to "Client A," be a "@phone" call, and be "high priority" all at once. That's what labels are for.
Vyneron now has structured labels that work across your whole workspace (on tasks, notes, and routines), so you can organize by the dimensions that matter to you, then filter and group by them.
TL;DR: Create a label (it gets a color automatically), then apply it to any task, note, or routine. Filter your view by one or more labels, or group by label to see everything under each one. Manage labels in one place in Settings, and add or remove them in plain language from web chat or Telegram.
What makes labels different from folders
- One item can carry several labels at once: "Client A," "urgent," "waiting." A folder gives it a single home.
- The same label can sit on a task, a note, and a routine, so "Project X" pulls together everything related, whatever the item type.
- Labels are managed at the workspace level, in one place, with consistent names and colors. "Marketing" stays one label instead of drifting into three near-duplicates.
(Notes also support quick inline #tags for jotting; labels are the structured, cross-type system you manage centrally.)
How to use labels
1. Create a label
Make a label once and Vyneron assigns it a color automatically, which keeps your board and lists easy to scan. Rename, recolor, or remove labels in Settings.
2. Apply it to anything
Add labels to a task, note, or routine as you create or edit it. Use as many as you need.
3. Filter and group
- Filter by label to narrow your view to just "Client A," or to a combination.
- Group by label to see your tasks sorted under each label. It's a quick way to review everything in one context.
4. Do it from chat or Telegram
You don't have to click. Tell Vyneron "label the budget task as finance" and it applies the label. This works the same in web chat and the Telegram bot. You can also ask for everything under a label ("show me everything tagged client-a").
Ways people use labels
- By client or project: "Client A," "Client B," to slice work by who it's for.
- By context: "@phone," "@errands," "@deep-work," GTD-style.
- By priority or energy: "urgent," "quick-win," "low-energy."
- By area of life: "work," "home," "health."
Pick the few dimensions you actually think in. Labels are most useful when there are a handful of meaningful ones, not fifty.
A note on cleanup
If you remove a label, Vyneron asks before stripping it from every record that uses it, so you don't accidentally wipe out a dimension you'd built up. Deleting a label never deletes the tasks or notes under it; it only removes the tag.
FAQ
What is the difference between labels and folders?
A folder gives each item a single home. A label can sit on tasks, notes and routines at once, and one item can carry several labels, such as a client, a context like @phone, and a priority.
How many labels should I use?
Pick the few dimensions you actually think in, such as client, context, priority or area of life. Labels are most useful when there are a handful of meaningful ones, not fifty.
Does deleting a label in Vyneron delete the tasks under it?
No. Deleting a label only removes the tag, and Vyneron asks before stripping it from every record that uses it.
