The process to add a new category to one of the available modules on iOS is similar to how you would create it through the CivicEngage platform on a desktop or laptop computer. 

Instructions  

1. Find the module you would like to add the category to
   
2. Select Add Category
   
   
   • Note: If your screen is blank, that means you do not have permission to the module. You will need to contact one of your System Administrators to discuss access.
3. Fill out the information
   
   
   • Name: The name of the category
   • Brief Description: Brief description of what will be in the category
