💡 Allow tag filtering in Android app

💻 Android App

I notice that the API supports tag filters but trying to subscribe on the Android app using the filter string is not permitted.

Either allow using the filter string to the subscription or allow aging filters within the subscription settings.

Thanks for the ticket.

I don't hate the idea, but it very niche and likely will just overload the Android app even more. Given that topics are cheap, it may be just a good "workaround" to just subscribe to different topics.

I did try using a topic of zzzz,tags=xxxx but the subscribe option doesn't allow it

I was hoping to have a general topic that could be published to and different clients filter the information based upon the tag like it's permitted in the API.

I have given this more thought and I don't think I want to implement subscription filters. Thank you for taking the time to open a ticket.
