Box Notes at its core is a collaborative product and so many features don’t make sense in a ‘Hide Collaborators’ environment. We’d suggest turning off ‘Hide Collabs’.

Checklists - Auto-Check Indented Checklists when Parent is Checked
In a Box Notes checklist, if there are indented lines, have them auto-check when the parent line is checked.
0 votesInteresting feedback. Not planned, but good to keep in mind when we improve checkboxes and the editor in the future.

Enable Tasks in Box Notes
Client is a heavy user of Box Notes (for project plans, team meetings, checklists, lists and other). They'd like to be able to assign tasks related to those lists/activities/other from the Box Note to collabs.
65 votesThank you for the feedback. Adding Tasks to Box Notes is functionality that we are actively researching, but is not currently on the roadmap. Please continue to submit feedback and use cases, and we’ll update if and when this becomes a priority.

Enhance UX for Viewing Box Note when Not Signed In
Currently, when a user clicks an open shared link (a 'people with the link' link) for a Box Note, it opens in their browser as read-only (as it should). However, the confusing part for end users is if they in fact do have 'edit' access to the Box Note, it appears to them that they don't, but that's because there isn't an active browser session.
REQUEST: Add a 'log in' or 'Need to edit? Sign in here' - type button in the header to make the UX better.
Scenario 1: Example with Active Login Session for Box:
This scenario is…0 votesThanks for highlighting. We could consider a login button on the Read-only page, a big catch would be that we wouldn’t know ahead of time if the person has edit access until they log in. So for people without access, logging in doesn’t help them.
I don’t think we’ll do this. Unfortunately, users will just have to know they need to sign in.

Stylus Input - Support Stylus Input in Box Notes
Ability to record handwritten notes directly into a Box Note, from a tablet or phone using a stylus.
14 votesWe will do our best to support any operating system-level support for a stylus. But the demand for this is more rare, so it is Not Planned for our roadmap.

Tables - Ability to Copy a Row and Paste into a Table in A Different Box Note
Requesting ability to copy a Box Note row and paste into another Box Note table (preserving formatting and links). Currently, you can paste into a new table this way, not an existing table in our testing.
Rationale: Ease of use, consistent ability to cut and paste

Native Picture Storage - No More 'Box Notes Images' Folder
Adding a photo to a Box note currently creates a 'Box Notes Images' folder in the parent folder where the Box Note is located. This seems somewhat odd and unintuitive, especially with the shared link permission quirks with the photos.
To resolve this, Box Notes should natively 'store' the pictures within the Box Note itself and not as part of a separate 'Box Notes Images' folder.

Thanks for the feedback and please do keep it coming. Support for offline access for Notes is not currently on our roadmap, however we are researching possible technical solutions and will revisit in the future.
