Filipino is the national language of the Philippines. Tagalog is literally the same with Filipino, however, the locals only used the word "Tagalog" when they are referring to the dialect used in Luzon Island. It was decided to use the term "Filipino" as national language because it would be unfair for the locals living in visayas and mindanao islands, as they are not speaking tagalog and they are living in different islands. They are speaking the visaya and other dialects.

I hope this helps.
