MyHeritage adds DNA labels for matches

From MyHeritage (www.myheritage.co.uk):

We are excited to introduce labels for your DNA Matches, a convenient way of organizing your DNA Matches into groups. As more people test their DNA with MyHeritage or upload their DNA data, the MyHeritage DNA database continues to grow by leaps and bounds. The growing list of your newfound DNA Matches can be overwhelming. The handy new color-coded labels feature comes to your aid! Labels are a free feature that doesn’t require a subscription.

Labeling your DNA Matches can help you gain insights about them at a glance. Then, by filtering your matches using labels, you can isolate specific groups of matches to focus on. Labeling your matches enables you to get organized, define more exact research goals, and determine your next steps.

You can label your DNA Matches by the criteria of your choice with 30 different colors. Each color can be assigned to represent a different group of interest, such as different family lines, descendants of a specific ancestor, matches of high interest, matches that you haven’t had a chance to investigate yet, or matches that require a closer look when you have the chance.
