In this chapter, we will cover all of the ways you can ensure that your tracked is categorized exactly how you want it. This section covers the following topics:

Categorizing Apps & Websites

Accuracy is one of the defining features of Rize. You can customize how you want to track and categorize apps and websites without having to invest time upfront.

Rize comes with a large number of existing categorization rules for apps and websites. If Rize does not contain a rule for an app or website it categorized as *“*Miscellaneous”. We recommend against categorizing apps and websites in the “Miscellaneous” category. It’s not worth your time.

If you spend enough time in a “Miscellaneous” app or website, Rize will recategorize that app or website as “Uncategorized”. If you have “Uncategorized” apps or websites for a specific day, you’ll see a button appear on the Home dashboard. Click on it to open a modal where you can categorize all “Uncategorized” apps and websites.

Clicking on any of the uncategorized apps or websites will open a modal that allows you to choose a category or create your own. To create a new category, type the name of the category and choose the "Create" option in the dropdown.

Re-categorizing Apps & Websites

In some instances, you may want to change the category of an app or website that automatically gets categorized to something else. There are two main ways to re-categorize an app or website:

• Tracking settings - if you need to change how a specific app or website is tracked, you can look it up in the Tracking Settings page. This will not change your past history but only affect future events.
• Category breakdown - if the category breakdowns aren't what you expected. You can change any app or website in that category.

To view the apps and websites for a day or a week, head to the "Categories" tab of your dashboard.
