Create categories for apps
To create a category simply put in the name of the category in the field and click on "Add".
The more apps you offer, the more categories you should define to make it easier for users to find what's important to them.
You can also define sub categories, this let's you sort your apps even better!
How to create a sub category
To create a sub category, simply click on the plus icon next to the category.
How to delete a category
To delete a category, simply click on the trashcan icon.
A deleted category cannot be restored and has to be added again, if you deleted it by mistake.
