Quick answer
Open Categories, create a distinct reusable name, then assign it to relevant tasks and verify it improves filtering.
Before you start

Do this in Nyttio
- 1

- 3
Apply and test it
Assign the category to tasks, then use Filter to confirm the grouping is useful.
Important to remember

- Agree on naming before several similar categories accumulate.
Common mistakes
- Creating separate spellings for the same concept.
- Using categories as a replacement for ownership or due dates.
