Thanks Chris. I’ll definitely reach out to WayAround. I’m curious about your statement:
“First, there is no way of accessing a list of all of your tags. Again, the reason for storing them in the cloud is for backup purposes. If they were not backuped to the cloud, when you got a new phone, then you would have to remake all of your tags again.” This makes it sound like I could access the tags on my phone, but I don’t see how to do this either. All I can do is read the tags that I’ve already written, at least that’s all I can figure out so far. Am I missing something? -- Christopher (AKA CJ) Chaltain at Outlook From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Chris Chaffin Sent: Sunday, January 9, 2022 9:42 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Retrieving WayAround tags from the cloud First, there is no way of accessing a list of all of your tags. Again, the reason for storing them in the cloud is for backup purposes. If they were not backuped to the cloud, when you got a new phone, then you would have to remake all of your tags again. Now, I do think this could be useful feature, so I would recommend emailing WayAround and requesting that they consider adding this feature in the future. Now to your current situation. How about making a tag for each of your different blends, your breakfast ones for example, then just labeling the container with the tag that corresponds to what blend you are currently using at that time. That way you only have to make each tag one time. After that, you are just swapping tags. I know this is not exactly what you want, but hope its helpful.

I don’t see a list of tags on my phone either, so I’m not sure how to take advantage of the fact that the tags are stored on my phone and backed up in the cloud in case I get a new phone. Second, I was a bit terse in my question, so let me give an example of what I’m trying to do. I have containers I use to store my loose leaf teas. I have one container for my breakfast blends, but I rotate through different blends. What I’ve been doing is just creating a new tag each time by using the Seeing AI app and then cutting and pasting the text into the new WayTag. I just replaced my Scottish Breakfast with Texas Blend. Since I’ve created a tag for Texas Blend in the past, I figured I should just be able to bring up the previous tag and write it to the tag I have on my breakfast blend container. I suppose I could just use a generic tag that says breakfast blend, but I kind of like having a reminder of what blend I currently have in that container and a few tips about the tea, like how long to steep it and at what temperature. BTW, if anyone is interested, I get my loose leaf teas from Tea Embassy at https://teaembassy.com/<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fteaembassy.com%2F&data=04%7C01%7C%7C3a971e759c9a40f08c5608d9d386a2e0%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637773397478831629%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=QgK8qdGAbGGjPXwGWoh1LyivI%2FmV6GZvJJJJpQSrk3w%3D&reserved=0> -- Christopher (AKA CJ) Chaltain at Outlook From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> On Behalf Of Chris Chaffin Sent: Sunday, January 2, 2022 1:27 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: Retrieving WayAround tags from the cloud The Waycloud allows you to have a back up of all of your tags in case something happens to your phone, and for when you want to change or get a new phone. As far as I know, you are not able to access the information on your tags through the Waycloud. As far as copying the information that you have on one tag to a new tag, just follow these few easy steps. 1, Scan the old tag with the information that you want to put on the new tag. 2, On that screen, along with the information from that tag, you will find an edit button after the read button, just double tap that edit button. 3, Now it will bring up a create screen with all of the information already filled in for you. 4, Just get your new tag, double tap the write button at the bottom, and then scan the new tag. The information will be written to the new tag. This makes it easy to create several tags with the same information really quick. Hope this helps.

I have to update a tag to something I tagged before, so I’d like to pull a list of the tags that were saved in the cloud, select one and then rewrite it to the tag. Does anyone know if this is possible? If not, I’m wondering what’s the point of having my tags stored in the cloud.
