You can name and save filters for future use, or use them temporarily.

Create prompt filter
You can create a filter that will prompt users to enter a value, and filter based on that. For example, if you have data which contains people's names, you could create a filter like:
Name contains _prompt.EnterName fx
Filter on Current User
If your data contains details of the user, you may be able to filter based on the currently logged in user. For example, to set a filter where the owner equals the current logged in user, add a condition to the filter:
Owner equals _user.name fx
Enter a list of values for an "Is In" or "Is Not In" filter
If you want to select a set of records which have a field set to one of a range of possible values you can do this by selecting the "Is in" or "Is not in" comparator from the drop down list and then simply typing the list of values into the edit box to the right of the comparator as a comma separated list like this:
Country Is in England, France, Germany ABC
Alternatively, you can enter the comparison value as expression:
Country Is in ["England","France","Germany"] fx
Filter Picker
If the stream view that you are filtering on has the "allow filter picker" enabled, then you will see the 
icon after the value field. Clicking on it will display a list of the possible values to filter on for that field. If you are constructing a quick filter then the values displayed will be filtered by any background filters, stream view filters, and other filter conditions for the stream view. If you select one value then the filter condition will be changed to "Equals" and if you select more than one it will be changed to "Is in" and the value field will be changed to an expression, however if the selected condition is either "not Equals" or "Is not in" then selecting one or multiple values will change the condition to "not equals" or "is not in" respectively.
