About categories

You can create categories to group your contacts, tasks and memos. You can also narrow the contacts, tasks and memos that
appear based on categories.
Category names are not case sensitive. More than one category can apply to a contact, task or memo. If you use IBM® Lotus
Notes®, you can apply more than one category to a task on your BlackBerry® device, but only one category synchronises with
the task in Lotus Notes.

are made in all applications.
