Friends Alias / Friendly Names

Jump to Best Response

Is there a method to add tags or aliases to a friend? 

 

For example, let's see I have a friend John whose gamertag is bananaboat77654

I am never going to remember john=bananaboat77654. Is there a way to add (John) somewhere where I see his tag or an ability to add notes about a friend? It would be helpful to be able to identify where I know someone from, what games we have in common, etc

If this isn't possible, is there a preferred way to submit as a feature request?

That's a great idea to be honest. I didn't have that many friends yet, but I can imagine this is easier to remember friends if you could put a note with them.

If you want to let the Stadia developers know about it, I recommend to suggest them feedback as following: Tap your profile in the top right corner in the Stadia app or on stadia.google.com and select "Feedback".

I actually had already submitted the feedback. Just trying to make sure I wasn't missing something and get more visibility. Thanks for the great response though!

I'm not sure whether this is currently possible, because unlike Play Games on Android where your contacts linked to your Google account are matched with their gamertags so their names show up instead of their tags, Stadia doesn't do the same at least not yet at the moment. For the time being however, you could message the person and maybe add some identifiers into the conversation to help you remember.

I recommend leaving a feedback to let the team know as Chufu above has suggested.
