    Funny answer on this one ... "it's not feasible to add more labels." I find it hard to believe that it's not easy to add the ability to create more than 6 labels. :( disappointed in this feature.

    I also need more than 6 labels.  I just switched from Trello to Planner and this limitation is making me reconsider.  Also, we need the ability to sort based on the labels.

    I also find the 6 labels very limiting... That's one reason I'm going back to Trello

    It would be really helpful to be able to add more labels - I too need another 6.  I am using the labels to assign people to them to notify when they have a sub task associated with a higher level task.  Is there any plan to look at this in the short term?
