Vokabulo

How do I show only the words with a certain tag?

Short answer

Tap `Filter` above the list and pick what you want: tags, levels, usage labels, or a combination. The button then counts what is on, as `Filter · 2`, and a row of chips under it lets you drop them one by one or all at once.

You can narrow your list by tag, by level and by usage label, alone or together, which makes it easy to review only the vocabulary relevant to what you are doing right now.

Tap Filter above the list. The sheet opens with a search box for finding a tag among many, then three sections: TAGS, LEVEL and USAGE.

Every chip carries a number, and it is the number of words you would be left with, not the number the tag holds in total. Chips that would leave you with nothing are not shown at all, so an empty combination is impossible to build by accident. Picking several chips in one section widens the result; picking across sections narrows it. Two tags mean "either tag", a tag and a level mean "both".

Tapping a chip lifts it into an ACTIVE row at the top, and a line underneath keeps a running count of how many words your selection matches. Levels collect into one chip there rather than one each, so Level 1, 3 comes off in a single tap.

When a filter is on

The Filter button counts what is on, as Filter · 2. Under the toolbar a row of chips appears: Clear all first, then your levels, your usage labels and your tags, each with an X that removes just that one. The row hides itself while you are searching.

The same sheet is used in three places: here, in the Study tab, and from the small filter line on Home. Words and Study keep separate filters, so browsing never changes what you study, and each language pair remembers its own.

Good to know

One behaviour looks like a bug and is not. If a search still has hits but your active filters would reduce the list to nothing, Vokabulo drops those filters rather than showing you an empty screen.
