Tighter integration with Box Notes and Outlook
Box Notes should better integrate with Outlook similar to how OneNote does. From an Outlook event on your calendar, users can easily create a OneNote meeting note file, as well as assign tasks and include emails/contacts on the OneNote file as well.

Ability to Archive Old Box Notes
Or at least add different view categories so that all the notes don't just appear under Recents

Ability to copy and paste formatted text from other text editors (i.e. Word, BBEdit, etc.) into Box Notes better
Our users experience a lot of trouble when trying to copy and paste formatted text from other text editors (Word, BBEdit, etc.) no matter the format they try to paste it in. They typically always lose numbering, bulleting, and more.

Box Note Visual Share Indicator
Security would like users to be able to see at a glance that a Box note is shared or not. Something like how the folder icon changes on the web app when a folder is shared.
We are more concerned about it now that Box Notes is consolidated and it's not always quickly visually clear (inside a Notes Tab) where the Note resides and whether it's collaborated.

UMP Support for box notes.
Rather than deploying this as a 32bit application, we would like this to be a UMP app.

Ability to highlight single column in box notes.
You can't currently highlight a single column in box notes, but you can highlight a single row. This would be helpful for formatting and organization.
2 votesUnfortunately, we are unable to accommodate this request on a one-off basis. Thank you for your suggestion!

Add support to import notes with specific file types (such as .ENEX) from other systems like Evernote
Implementing a more seamless way to migrate their data would help us adopt and use Box Notes as our main repository for notes and note taking.
1 voteThis is a resource-intensive request which is not on our short-term roadmap. We will update you if anything changes.

Notes Desktop App - Allow Multiple Windows
Users may want to have multiple Notes open at the same time. Request is to allow a user to 'double click' a note in the list on the left sidebar to open it in its own window (exactly the same UX that the native Mac Notes app already has).
1 voteThis is not a priority for the team at this time. We will reconsider with additional customer demand.

Notes Desktop App - Add App to Mac & Windows App Stores
We push users toward downloading software from the Mac and Windows App Stores, especially the Mac App Store as that is Apple's officially 'approved' method for downloading software to a computer.
3 votesThanks for the feedback! App store versions of our desktop app are not currently planned on our roadmap. We’ll continue to monitor and may revisit in a future planning cycle based on customer feedback.

Notes Desktop App - Provide .MSI / .DMG / .PKG Installers
REQUEST: Provide admin installers (specifically .pkg, .dmg, and .msi) so that large enterprises can take advantage of the Box Notes desktop app.

'Remove Formatting' / 'Clear Formatting' Option
Remove formatting entirely when a user first copy/paste something into Box Notes. Whenever I have to paste blocks of text into Notes, I first copy to a text editor, then select all and c/p from there.
The other option is a button in the header for "remove formatting." Both would be nice but the copy/paste one is way more inconvenient.
0 votesWe recommend the ‘Paste and match style’ command found in most browsers and our new desktop app.

Provide a Box Note Realtime API so we can create new Box Notes from our custom apps
Our users would like to be able to create a new Box Note from their own custom app menu bar.
This note would be saved in the folder from which they clicked the icon.
2 votesThank you for your note! This is not planned for the foreseeable future. We will re-evaluate this request with additional customer demand.

Support Password-Protected Shared Links for Box Notes
There's a known issue/limitation currently (https://community.box.com/t5/Managing-Your-Content/Box-Notes-Notices-and-Known-Limitations/ta-p/340) where Box Notes do not work correctly when the shared link is password-protected.
REQUEST: Allow Box Notes to have password-protected shared links just like any other file on Box.
23 votesThis is not a priority for the team at this time. We will reconsider with additional customer demand.
