Option to only have selected users have access to BOX mobile.
We currently store extremely sensitive information within our BOX system and due to the sensitive information we have disabled the option for BOX to be on any other devices other than desktops, for all users. Is it possible to create an option that would override this option to allow only selected users to have mobile access?

Password Forgot Link should not be on the initial Login Screen of the Mobile app.
I believe the forgot password link on the initial Box Login Screen should be removed from the app. The scenario requires you to enter in your Username First (Email). At that point Box knows if the person is SSO or not. If the person is SSO it should bring them to their IDP. If it not it should provide a password dialog box and the option to reset the password.
An option to reset the password should not be present before you enter in your username(Email).

Open shared links on Box mobile app
When tapping an iOS icon tied to a Box shared link, the file should open immediately in the Box app instead of redirecting to the mobile web page where the user sees the option to "Open in Box App," "Download for free," "View on Box Mobile Site."

iOS Files app "waiting to upload" problem/getting stuck
Awhile back I could not get the iOS Files to work with Box documents. They would get stuck in the "waiting to upload." While they were helpful, I spent several emails with Box assistants and we couldn't find a solution and gave up. It seems obvious, but I finally figured out what happened. The Microsoft Office applications in iOS require an Office 365 account to edit documents. My Office 365 is through my work, and I am in education, so of course we get a terrible email at first and immediately start using the email alias. When Office required the…

Box Passcode Screenshot Issue Resolution
On the Box Android App when you set a passcode it does not allow you to take a screenshot of any document. You have to go remove the passcode to take the screenshot and then go back and set it again.
This is beyond tedious and unnecessary and some other workaround to be able to do both has to be given. I want to have the ability to have security (passcode) and take screenshots.1 vote -
Single page view option for Box for Android
In Box for Android - make single page fit to screen an option for previewing PDFs.
Currently there is either 2 page - which creates a lot of blank space on the top and bottom - or the thumbnail grid - which is good for navigating to a page but not helpful for review of a single page.

I'd like to see the ability to create multiple named playlists for the Box iOS mobile app. Currently I can only favorite songs which places them into one large playlist. I'd like to be able to create multiple playlists for different genres of music or for the activity I'm engaged in.

[android] Detailed information in transfers tab
In transfers tab, can we get information for:
- past uploads (eg last day)
- failed uploads (all, until successful)
- queued, pending transfers.This, mostly gives more detailed visibility for status on auto-upload settings - currently to verify if new files from auto-upload directory was synced,m we need manually check target directory and this can be tedious.
This should be extended to also manual transfers.

Intune for Android Device Admin (APK)
Intune for Android Device Admin (APK)
1 voteWe will not be supporting additional EMM features for Android Device Admin; moving forward, we are supporting EMM feature requests on Android Enterprise.
APK/Device Admin was announced as deprecated in 2017, and deprecated in last year’s update (P), and this year’s Android update (Q) no longer supports APK/Device Admin at all. From Google: “Starting with Android 9 (API level 28), some admin policies will be marked as deprecated when invoked by a device admin. We recommend you start to prepare now for this change. To learn more and see the migration options, read Device admin deprecation” (https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/admin/device-admin).
Android Enterprise was released on Android 5.0 (L). Learn more here:

An App like Google Photos
This would be a great idea to start an app like Google Photos, which will backup photos from Mobile Device and easily accessible via app with thumbnails to the photos and organized in folders as per the need.

New PowerPoint, Excel, Word from mobile
When on the app, it would be helpful to have the option to create a new PowerPoint, Excel, Word doc. It is a bit confusing to tell the user they have to open the Word app first and save it to the Box mobile app when you don't need to do that from the web experience.
