About contacts

When you add contacts to your BlackBerry device, connecting with them is easy. The Contacts app is integrated with your Messages app, your Calendar app, and other apps, so you can quickly add contacts to relevant messages and events or share your photos and videos.
If you've added an email account or social networking account to your device, contacts from those accounts can appear in your contact list. It's simple to find the people that you want to connect with because your device automatically merges contacts who share first and last name, email addresses, or mobile phone numbers.

Adding contacts

Add an email or social networking account

1. On the home screen, swipe down from the top frame.
2. Tap the Settings icon > Accounts.
• If you have accounts associated with your BlackBerry ID, tap Select Accounts. Select the accounts that you want to add.
• If you haven't added an account yet, tap the type of account that you want to add.

birthday, and so on. You can tap on phone numbers or email addresses to start connecting with contacts.
Updates This view shows you your contacts' most recent updates from social networking apps like Twitter
and Facebook. If you have the contacts' work information, the Updates view also shows you news about their place of work. You can tap on an update to see it in a social networking app or the browser.
History This view shows you past interactions with your contacts. Tap on any of the history events to go

Collecting and organizing tasks, notes, and more with FocalPoint

The FocalPoint app is a productivity tool for collecting, managing, categorizing, and sharing the information that matters to you. You've got a lot of things that you need to remember; sort these things as entries in notebooks, categorize the entries with tags, and add due dates to entries so that you don't forget to complete a task.

If you've added a work email account to your device, either through ActiveSync or through BlackBerry Mobile Fusion, your tasks and notes or memos from your work account are kept in sync with FocalPoint in the Tasks and Notes notebooks. Even your flagged email messages are sent to the Unfiled notebook.
