About

TagingVault

TagingVault is an offline workspace for reusable hashtag sets. Save named sets, clean pasted blocks, and copy a tag list into your editor. Version 2.1 adds Echo Cut, a carryover cutter unique to this app. ECHO CUT Rotating the set is not enough if the same tags keep traveling with you. Echo Cut compares a candidate set against the tags inside your recent logged posts β€” including posts that used a different set β€” then copies the leftover block. It is not a set score, not a caption-density check, and not a cloned lab worksheet. BUILD AND ROTATE - Create, search, pin, favorite, duplicate, and edit sets - Normalize pasted tag blocks and remove duplicates - Assign sets to days in the weekly planner - Record when a set was used and review outcomes you log yourself INSPECT WHEN YOU NEED IT - Set Audit combines local cautions, reuse history, and cross-set overlap - Compare two sets, blend sets without repeats, and scan library redundancy - Caption density and tag-check tools stay advisory. They do not claim live platform limits or predict reach. OFFLINE REFERENCE Browse a bundled, hand-edited catalog. TagingVault does not connect to social-platform APIs. YOUR DATA STAYS LOCAL No account, ads, analytics SDK, or subscription. Sets, planner notes, and usage history stay on this device unless you export them.
