We have this capability in Box Notes on desktop but not on the mobile application.

Upload Excel files on iPad to Box
Would really benefit from being able to upload Excel files on iPad to Box for when doing remote work.
1 voteThank you for your feedback! You should be able to upload from the Office apps. Otherwise, this is an iOS limitation.

Attach files from Box mobile app and not Files app.
Since the introduction of the Files app, it is impossible to access Box from an email except through the Files app.
If you are telling me that, post-Files, it will be impossible to attach a document from Box to an existing email chain, so be it. But that is an impediment to using Box as our mobile document management system.
1 voteThank you for your feedback! You should be able to access Box via the Files app integration in other apps. Contact Support with any questions.

Blackberry Enterprise Mobility Suite (formerly Good) support for Box for EMM
Our EMM solution is Blackberry Enterprise Mobility Suite. We have no plans for migrating to an alternate EMM provider.

Allow third party mobile apps to "Use EMM" for login instead of direct Box API
Instead of having users log into Box from other third party apps, have them use the auth from Box EMM. This allows Box to whitelist EMM for logins. Box should know for all integrations that the login from the 3rd party app is from a trusted device (since EMM is on it)
1 voteWe’ve explored this idea, but it does not appear technically feasible at this time. We are happy to revisit with additional demand.

Choose document quality and size upon upload
For photos and videos you can choose whether the size is small, medium or large. It would be great to have this functionality available for documents as well.
1 voteThis feature is not planned for 2019.

User management settings in mobile app
We would like user management access within the mobile iOS app. We would like to be able to reset a password on the fly as well as deactivate someone quickly if we are not near our computer.
1 voteThank you for the suggest! This is not an area in which we will invest.
App usage would be sporadic and would not drive engagement as much as dedicating our resources towards our existing apps.

Force the Box iOS / Box Android / Box EMM applications to re-authenticate more often than every 60 days.
Ideally, we would like for the timeframe to be user definable.
This is an important security requirement for us as we move into supporting non-GFE devices, so please do let us know if you need additional information.
1 voteThe mobile app is built on top of our APIs and therefore adheres to the standard token durations. Applications that are managed through an EMM provider already provide an advanced level of security that reduces overall risk.
As a workaround, through your EMM provider, you could revoke the Box application and force users to reinstall on whatever basis you deem appropriate.
Some providers may also allow you to revoke the managed app config which will force Box for EMM to log the user out.
At some point, however, you would have to push the managed app config back down to the device.

1 votePlease update with customer requesting the feature.

Ability to support previewing dynamic HTML5 files
Our marketing team would like to deliver dynamic HTML5 collateral that includes animated components.
Ideal scenario is to have the sales team be able to present content directly from Box (via tablet) without the need of a third party solution.
Introducing additional solutions opens up more risk in terms of sensitive content leakage.
1 voteAt this time, the mobile team has several higher priorities, but we can re-examine this with additional customer demand.

EMM Multi-Window Support for iPad
I need to be able to open multiple documents and easily switch between them with tabs (like iOS Safari perhaps) and I often need to display two documents side by side or have two views of the same document.
1 voteDuring our investigation we determined that this flow was not a highly desired capability for how users currently want to work in Box. It would also require a shift in how our application was build.

Push Notifications for @Mentions
Box push notifications on iOS are very limited currently and only send the user a push notification when...
- There's a comment added to a file and they're the most recent uploader
- They've been added to a folder
The most logical other push notification to add would be for @mentions which, in theory, would increase overall adoption of comments as well.

"Save files to device" settings to separate for Box Capture
Currently, "Save files to device" settings on Enterprise settings affect both Box Mobile App and Box Capture. However, we want to do the settings separately.
1 voteThis is currently not planned, but we will consider with additional customer demand.

'Choose A Destination Folder' UI: Add Search & Sorting Capabilities
Users find it annoying that they can't use the standard search/sort functions from the Box app when they're in the 'Choose a Destination Folder' modal.
1 voteThis is a worthy enhancement, but not on the 2019 roadmap.
