Q:

Can we merge [android-tabs] and [android-tablayout]?

Can we merge these tags? Both are being used for TabLayout.

A:

Actually, android-tabs is vague and may refer to at least two UI element: android-tablayout and android-tabhost.
So my previous opinion on making them synonyms may be a mistake. It may be best to re-tag manually.

Indeed, both tags cover the same Android UI element.
I concur with TylerH comment, we should make android-tabs a synonym of the explicit android-tablayout.
If you have 5 points in the tag (or if you're a moderator), you can vote for it on https://stackoverflow.com/tags/android-tablayout/synonyms.
