Change category default list to current.

when changing categories, the selection should default at the current category. Typically the assigned needs to be updated to a sub category of the same. In addition, a list of suggested changes at the top would be useful.

There is a "most used" section at the top when editing categories in the web app.

Are you recommending changing how that works? There is an Idea post asking for it to be changed:

I hope this helps!
