Tag autocomplete is available after purchasing? I didn’t see it under the list of unlock features.

Though I’d probably be more interested in how the Mac app works unless Pins also gets Pushpin’s feature of showing you how many times you’ve used tags during auto complete.

Tag autocompletion is available in the free-to-try version as well. When you start typing in the Tags fields, 3 most used tags matching that query will show up above the keyboard.

The Mac app is based on Catalyst and 99% feature equivalent to the iOS version. More options to view how tags are used in your account is coming in later versions.

Just to clarify what I was saying, the iOS share extension (including tags and tag-autocompletion) is the most important feature to me and the share extension is only available after unlock. Tag autocompletion will work elsewhere as the author replied.
Actually the share extension is available before unlocking with one limitation: You can use it once every 5 minutes. Something weird may be going on with iOS so sometimes you have to restart the device for new share extensions to show up. This is outside my control.
Cool. I also saw "Save to Pinboard share extension" on the list of unlock features which also led me to believe it was only available that way. Anyhow, it's working well and thanks again.
