Manage your categories

BlackBerry Notes
supports synchronization with the categories in your work email account. New categories that you add in
BlackBerry Notes
are automatically assigned a color and added to your work email account.
BlackBerry Notes
and
BlackBerry Tasks
support categories, but
BlackBerry Work
does not support categories. When you change the name of a category in
BlackBerry Notes
, all current notes in that category are added the new category. Items from other apps remain in the previous category.
When you delete a category on your device or in your work email account, it is retained with the notes in it but removed from the list in your email account. On your device, its color is removed, it is moved to the bottom of the category list, and it is treated as a local category.
