I’m honest, I see the potential of the app but for these usecases I use the flow+variables cards of advanced flows right now. But with the option to pass more than one variables of a type (multiple variables) it is much more powerful.

As I understand it works like that:  
In the then card you define a trigger (name) and the variables (tags) + values you want to use.  
In the when card you can use these triggers and the values as tags in the following then cards.
