Data storage and aging
Personal information and email on your
Android
device is stored
indefinitely, with the following limitations and exceptions:- The storage limit forBlackBerry Workdata (mail, calendar, and contacts) depends on available memory on your device. Email aging is based on the "sync window" which you define. For example, the values may be 1 day, 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, or 1 month. For more information, see "Days to Sync" in Personal Settings in Change email settings. However, there is a display limitation in the current v1.1 for Android release to the extent that each folder will only display up to 1,500 emails, starting with the most recent.
- In initially synchronizing your Calendar, the timeframe is set to the month previous plus all future events. There is no practical limit on the size of your Calendar, although it can only use as much as the Android operating system allocates to it.
- There is no limit on the number of contacts stored. BlackBerry Work does not preallocate storage and is limited only to the amount of storage allocated to it by theAndroidOS.
- BlackBerry Work for Androiddoes not cache email attachments.
- The maximum length of an email is 200 KB.
If your device ever runs out of space for new contacts, you must delete existing contacts
to make room for the new ones. Be sure to do this from the device, not from your desktop
business account. To preserve contacts before deleting them from the device, use the
Export feature on your desktop or laptop. Note that you must first export the data from
your business account and your desktop or laptop before deleting it from your mobile
device.
