Installing and activating the BlackBerry Work app
Before you can begin using BlackBerry Work, you must activate it. The steps you take to install BlackBerry Work
depend on how you will be activating it. The following options are available for activating the BlackBerry Work
app:
Install BlackBerry Work and activate using an access key: Choose this option if you have not installed the
BlackBerry UEM Client on your device or if your administrator has not allowed the BlackBerry UEM Client to
manage the activation of BlackBerry Dynamics apps.
Install BlackBerry Work and activate using the BlackBerry UEM Client: Choose this option if you have installed
the BlackBerry UEM Client on your device and your administrator has allowed the BlackBerry UEM Client to
manage the activation of BlackBerry Dynamics apps. This option appears in BlackBerry Work only if both
of these conditions are met. If you do not see this option when you open BlackBerry Work, you must set up
BlackBerry Work using an access key.
Install BlackBerry Work and activate using an access key
To get an access key, choose one of the following options:
Request an access key from your administrator. Your administrator will send you an email with activation
details and the access key.
Generate an access key from your organization's self-service portal. If you do not know how to access your
self-service portal, contact your administrator.
Note: If allowed by your organization, you can activate BlackBerry Work using Easy Activation. An Easy Activation
key, when permitted, is supplied by another BlackBerry Dynamics app, like BlackBerry Access or BlackBerry
Connect, as long as these apps are already installed on your device. If available, you can activate BlackBerry Work
using the login password for the activation app. Contact your administrator to see if this option is available.
1. Request an access key from your administrator or generate an access key from your organization's self-
service portal.
2. After you receive the email message with the access key information or have generated your own access key,
download and install BlackBerry Work from Google Play.
3. Open BlackBerry Work.
4. In the Email Address field, type the email address located in the activation email message that you received
from your administrator or type your work email address if you generated your own access key.
5. In the Access Key field, enter the access key, without hyphens, located in your activation email message that
you received from your administrator or enter the access key that you generated from the self-service portal.
The access key is not case sensitive.
6. Create and confirm a password for BlackBerry Work. If your device is equipped with fingerprint authentication,
you can turn on this option to use instead of the password, except on initial startup.
7. Read the license agreement and, if you accept the terms, tap Accept.
8. If other devices, including your principal workstation, are also signed in, you will receive a notice advising you
of this condition. Tap OK.
9. Tap the BlackBerry Dynamics Launcher in the lower-right of the screen to start using BlackBerry Work.
|Installing and activating the BlackBerry Work app|7
Install BlackBerry Work and activate using the BlackBerry UEM Client
If you have installed the BlackBerry UEM Client on your device and your administrator has allowed the BlackBerry
UEM Client to manage the activation of BlackBerry Dynamics apps, you do not have to use access keys to activate
BlackBerry Work or any other BlackBerry Dynamics app that you want to install.
1. If the app was not automatically pushed to your device by your administrator, open your work apps catalog
and download the BlackBerry Work app. If you do not see the BlackBerry Work app in your work apps catalog,
contact your administrator to make the app available to you.
2. On your device, tap BlackBerry Work.
3. Click Allow to allow BlackBerry Work to send notifications.
4. Tap Set up using BlackBerry UEM Client.

Managing your notifications and alerts
BlackBerry Work provides a number of automatic indicators and alerts to let you know who's available and who's
not, when new mail arrives, whether or not you've read a message, its level of importance, and when a meeting or
appointment is soon to begin.
Notification Description
Presence The Presence indicator shows you the current online status of contacts
in your organization who have an active account on Microsoft Lync. If
your enterprise doesn't use Microsoft Lync for instant messaging, the
presence indicator is not displayed.
The Presence indicator shows the the following statuses.
Green: Available
Red or Orange: Busy
Red or Bar: Do Not Disturb
Yellow: Away
Gray: Offline
New and unread mail Unread email messages are displayed with a blue subject and the
sender's name in bold and black. After you open a message the sender's
name and subjected are displayed in grey.
Meeting/Appointment
A calendar icon next to the sender's name indicates that the message
is a meeting invitation or related to a calendar event.
Event and new mail alerts
You can configure visual and audio notifications in BlackBerry Work.
BlackBerry Work alerts are displayed at the top of the screen and on the Notifications screen. To access the
Notifications screen, you can swipe down from the top of any screen on most devices or tap the Control Center on
the bottom of tablet screens. You must have a wireless network connection to receive real-time notifications.
The BlackBerry Work widget supports threaded view.
Added security feature for detailed notifications
By default, if you don't unlock and use BlackBerry Work for for 12 hours, the BEMS Push Notification Service
removes details about email messages from notifications displayed on the device. Your administrator can change
this setting. Message details in notifications that are sent by the BEMS Push Notification Service resume when
you unlock BlackBerry Work.
|Managing your notifications and alerts|18
Managing sounds and notifications
Using Sounds and Notifications on the Settings screen, you can adjust your email and calendar notification
settings.
You can set notification behavior for general and VIP email, and set rules for push notification alerts to let you
know who an email is from and that it's been marked "Important." You can set notification rules for specific
contacts.
The behavior of alerts is different when your client is authenticated (for example, you've entered your password
after BlackBerry Work launches and the app is synchronizing) than when it is not authenticated (for example,
your BlackBerry Work app is closed or has been launched but not authenticated). These differences can be
summarized as follows:
When your device is not authenticated, one alert sound is played when the notification arrives, and the
notification is displayed.
A sound synchronizes with the notification. The notification is displayed only when your Inbox is not visible.
Sounds and Notifications rules determine how important an email is. If an email rule matches an email, the email
is marked VIP. Incoming messages from senders designated VIP in Contacts are also marked VIP. Contacts VIPs
are checked after email rules are checked:
Importance is set on each incoming email.
Importance is recalculated on every email if email rules change or you change your VIP contacts.
Importance is recalculated when the client authenticates.
Notifications support multiple sounds. Only unique sounds will play.
If a notification is showing and new email messages arrive, only unique sounds for the new messages are
played. Unique sounds play once each minute.
General and VIP notification settings
You can set the following notifications for general and VIP email: sound , pulse notification light, vibrate, and
ignore system mute to play sounds when system notification volume is set to mute.
Create email rules
You can create rules for push notification alerts to notify you when an you receive an email that is marked
important or from a specific user or group. Rules associate a particular sound with a type of sender that you
define.
1.
Tap > .
2. In the Sounds and Notifications section, tap Mail.
3. On the Mail Notifications screen, tap Rules.
4. On the Rules screen, tap the Plus button in the top right corner.
5. Enter the name of the rule and select a sound. You can turn off the mail notifications for that rule so that they
do not appear on the locked screen and in the notification center.
6. To add filters (sender mails or subject keywords) to the rule, tap Filters. You can also set the High Importance
filter. Tap Subject keyword to filter by words in the subject line. You can add multiple keywords.
7. Tap Save.
8. To edit an existing rule, tap on its name in the rules list.
9. Tap the pencil icon in the rules list to select multiple rules for deletion.

Access FileShare, SharePoint, and Box
A file share is public or private computer data and/or space in a network with various levels of access
permissions. File sharing allows a number of people to use the same file by being able to read or view it, write to
or modify it, copy it, or print it. Users can have the same or may have different permissions. A file share may also
include an allocated amount of personal file storage.
Access to enterprise SharePoint and Box sites give you even more channels for near-instant mobile collaboration
with your enterprise team members. Heavily used by organizations large and small for on-demand file sharing
and updating, SharePoint and Box are applications that integrate intranet, content management, and document
management onto a holistic platform. In addition to these applications, your administrator can make other
document repositories available to you.
It is still important to remember, however, that applications like SharePoint and Box aren't something you buy and
install on your own desktop but rather backend systems that tie all your users' PCs and mobile devices together,
allowing them all to communicate and synchronize data. The basic goal is to make it possible for an organization
with a hundred or even a thousand employees spread all over the region or the world to work together with the
same level of agility and coordination as a company with ten people working out of a single office.
You access and manage your document data sources in the same way as your work file shares. However, with
SharePoint for example, if you have been granted the corresponding permissions, you can check-in and check-out
files. For guidance on the fundamentals of multi-author sharing, consult your Microsoft Office SharePoint training
resources or other enterprise documentation.

Data storage and aging
Personal information and email on your Android device is stored indefinitely, with the following limitations and
exceptions:
The storage limit for BlackBerry Work data (mail, calendar, and contacts) depends on available memory on
your device. Email aging is based on the "sync window" which you define. For example, the values may be 1
day, 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, or 1 month. For more information, see "Days to Sync" in Personal Settings in
Change email settings. However, there is a display limitation in the current v1.1 for Android release to the
extent that each folder will only display up to 1,500 emails, starting with the most recent.
In initially synchronizing your Calendar, the timeframe is set to the month previous plus all future events. There
is no practical limit on the size of your Calendar, although it can only use as much as the Android operating
system allocates to it.
There is no limit on the number of contacts stored. BlackBerry Work does not preallocate storage and is
limited only to the amount of storage allocated to it by the Android OS.
BlackBerry Work for Android does not cache email attachments.
The maximum length of an email is 200 KB.
If your device ever runs out of space for new contacts, you must delete existing contacts to make room for the
new ones. Be sure to do this from the device, not from your desktop business account. To preserve contacts
before deleting them from the device, use the Export feature on your desktop or laptop. Note that you must first
export the data from your business account and your desktop or laptop before deleting it from your mobile device.
