Saving scanned documents
It would be great if I could set a default folder for my scanned documents rather than having them just go into the main Box folder.

Accuracy of recognizing flicks and swipes in mobile previews
For example, when previewing an Excel sheet with large rows and columns, the Box mobile app preview may mistake the user's swipe for a flick and terminate the preview.
We feel this happens more frequently than in the native Office mobile app.
Please improve it to detect the difference between a swipe and a flick a little more accurately.2 votes -

Access to file version history on box application
We need access to Version History for files on the Box App for tablets. My company uses version history for almost all files. When we move to tablets in the field we do not have access to important information.

ipad app zip download
Running the Box app on the iPad, I can't find a way to download a set of files or an entire folder as a ZIP to any app or the Files app. This works great on Android, and even Google Drive handles it.

Enable to see full file name on ipad (especially)
Please enable to see full file name on iPad. We usually name a file long name containing project name and code in order to manage files easier by project. But if do so, we couldn't see full file name by using iPad since the view is similar to the web. This situation is worse for construction field and we hope it will change like moblie view(iPhone's view).

Location on Mobile App
For Audit purposes, it would be good if the BOX mobile app had access to location while using the App, so the geography report included the location of mobile app users.

View embedded widgets on mobile.
The embedded widget is currently not viewable from mobile.
When embedded widgets are supported on mobile devices, security will be ensured by using the videos in the tenant's Box instead of storing them on an external server or streaming service.

User can download a image by pressing the image and selecting "Add Photo"/"Download Image" when opening the image via "View only" shared link on mobile devices's (iPhone or Android) web browser .
Even if user has "View only" permission, there is no way to prevent downloading a image file on mobile browser. We need a way to prevent downloading a image on mobile browser.1 vote -
Box for iOS support for "Universal Control"
Box for iOS doesn't support "Universal Control" in iOS 15 and Mac OS 12.x: this means that I can't drag my cursor from my Mac to my iPad Pro and use it to select and copy text from documents.
Could you please update your app to support the latest OS features?

Ability to reduce file size when image is scanned via the Box mobile app
Ability to reduce file size when image is scanned via the Box mobile app.
- Currently, the size of PDF files obtained when we scan a document via the Box mobile app, is very large.
- Example: Box app on iPhone file size - 7.4MB; Apple's "import from iPhone" file size: -3.9MB. - Could we have the ability to resize / reduce quality of these files?13 votes -

Continuous Capture Zoom Out iOS
In continuous capture in the Box iOS app, the amount you are able to zoom out is limited, compared to when using the general camera on phones. It would be great if this limit did not exist.
Note: When using a single photo mode (not continuous capture), this zoom out limitation does not seem to exist.

Ability to set default image quality for Capture mode of Box mobile app
With Capture mode of Box mobile app, the default value for quality is "Original", in which case the images are taken with HEIC format. This is not optimal for Windows users (as HEIC is not supported), and the workaround is to use "High" or lower quality (in which case images are saved in jpg) but each user needs to manually configure this for his/her own device. We want the ability to configure this globally from admin console.

Ability to sort folders/file when choosing where to upload images on Mobile app
When trying to upload multiple photos from my phone to Box, it does not allow me to SORT the folders/file in order to find the folder/file I want the photos placed in. I am forced to manually scroll through literally 100s of folders - which seem to be in order of most recently used which is not helpful - until I find it. You should be able to sort the folders, at minimum to put them in alphabetical order or by date etc so that you can find the place to upload them more easily.

Update m.box.com address for shared link previews on smartphones
Please change the specification so that it does not change to the m.box.com address when previewing the shared link from smartphone.
<Background>
・We want to share the preview screen easily to many unspecified users.
・But there are some shared links that can't be previewed on smartphone.
・The target shared link can be previewed successfully from the PC.
・The reason is that when you access the shared link from smartphone, the address is always changed to m.box.com.
・You can get around this problem by getting a free Box account (Individual) and installing Box for Mobile.
・However, this method requires some preparation…3 votes -
