Hi, sorry for the delay replying to this. We have a bug logged for not being able to delete tags in Android Chrome but haven't yet fixed it.
I can't replicate the issue with the tags repeating currently. Thanks for letting us know, I'll look into it more and add a note to the ticket to look at it.

I can delete tags sometimes but not other times when the repeating tags occur.

Thanks for clarifying, you did say that above so I should have acknowledge it. Its strange how the delete behaviour is intermittent 😧

Do you have any update on the repeating tags?
It's getting really annoying.

Hi. I haven't been able to replicate the issue but I'll ask someone to have a another try. Its possible we aren't doing the same thing as you. Just to check, when the tags repeat, I guess you are @ mentioning someone then tapping on their name in the popup? Does it repeat when you tap their name in the popup or does it happen at some other time?

Thanks for you help

Also, just to check, can you see what version of Chrome you have please? Its probably set to auto update, and will be the newest, but its worth checking.

You can find out in Chrome by

1.

Tapping the three dots menu in the top right

2.

Tap Settings

3.

Scroll down to the bottom

4.

Tap About Chrome

Just the first number is fine e.g. mine is version 138.

Thanks for the extra info 🙂 I'm stumped why I can't replicate it then. I'll ask someone else to take a look and try some different devices when I have a minute.
This is still happening.
