Installing and activating BlackBerry Notes
Before you can begin using BlackBerry Notes, you must activate it. The steps you take to install BlackBerry Notes
depend on how you will be activating it. The following options are available for activating the BlackBerry Notes
app:
• Install BlackBerry Notes and activate using an access key, activation password, or QR code: 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 and activate BlackBerry Notes when the BlackBerry UEM Client or another BlackBerry Dynamics app is
already activated: 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 Notes only if both of these conditions are met. If you do not see this option
when you open BlackBerry Access, you must set up BlackBerry Notes using an access key.

• Minimum device and OS requirements as listed in the Mobile/Desktop OS and Enterprise Applications
