So any and all users who’ve upgraded to the High Sierra preview has had issues with the nvALT.

Let’s address the headline first. This post is about the tags on files that Apple started supporting in Mavericks. Up until iOS 11, they didn’t work on iOS devices, so they eventually became “Finder tags.” I think “Apple Tags” is going to have to be the nomenclature moving forward (now that they’re starting to work on iOS as well), but I don’t think it’s a widely accepted phrase yet. So I’ll use “Finder tags” for a little while longer.
