Using Tap to Categorize

Tap-to-Categorize is the fastest way to categorize Folders, Albums, and People, allowing you to assign a primary category for each container. A container (e.g., Folder, Album, Person) can be assigned multiple categories by choosing the Custom Category option. When a category is added to a photo, video, or document, it will remain attached to that file, even if moved to a different folder.

Click on the Tap to Categorize icon on a Folder, Album, or Person, and choose a Category.

	Private
	Custom
