Use Tags to organize documents for quick access in iOS 11 Files App
Enter the complete details of the tip you want to share.
It's a fantastic feature added with iOS 11 files app to organize and access your files quickly, if you’re using multiple cloud services for file storage. You can tag the files stored either in iCloud Drive or the other cloud storages like Google drive, OneDrive, etc. Once you tag the frequently used files, they can be accessed quickly instead navigating and going through the folders to find them. 

You can assign files to the available default tags, or create your own tag with a label and color. To add a tag to a file, browse to a particular file location and hold on the file.  Contextual menu will open up from which you can select a tag to assign to the file. In the same screen you'll see an option to create a new tag as well. 

After adding a file to a tag it'll be available at the browse section under that tag for quicker access later. You can tag a single file to multiple tags.
