  1. Ability to accept invitation request to “Join Enterprise” via Mobile app

    We would like a way to see and accept invitation request for “Join Enterprise,” not only in Web browsers but also in Mobile [Box for iOS/Android] too.

    At the moment, users are unable to confirm and click “Accept” for the invitation request, when they log-in via [Box for iOS/Android].
    When there are many users who uses iPads only, it would take so much time and effort for them to access to Box via Web browser everytime, only to accept the invitation.

  2. Enable Password protect shared links in the mobile app

    Currently this option is not available in the mobile app. If a open shared link is shared, users on a mobile app do not have the ability to add a password to it.

  3. A function that allows users to check classification labels at the folder level from the mobile app.

    When storing highly confidential information in Box, it is necessary for each end user to recognize that the folder as a whole contains confidential information.
    While BoxWeb can recognize folders that confidential information by using classification labels, the mobile app (Box for EMM) cannot.
    Since users need to be aware that the folder as a whole handles confidential information, please implement a function that allows users to check classification labels at the folder level from the mobile app.

    <モバイルアプリからフォルダレベルの分類ラベルを確認できる機能>
    Boxへ機密性の高い情報を格納するにあたり、エンドユーザーそれぞれがフォルダ全体として機密情報が格納されていることを認識する必要があると考えます。
    BoxWebからは分類ラベルを利用することで機密情報保管フォルダを認識可能ですが、モバイルアプリ(Box for EMM)からでは確認できません。
    フォルダ全体として機微情報を扱うフォルダであることをユーザーに認識づける必要があるため、モバイルアプリからフォルダレベルで分類ラベルを確認できる機能を実装してください。

  4. 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.

  5. Box Capture enhancements

    Videos recorded using Box Capture on iPad have been randomly saving with incorrect orientation for some time now. Videos will be recorded with iPad in landscape mode, but files will come out in portrait mode. I have had to manually reorient many many videos over the past few months.

    Clearing the local storage only works temporarily to fix the video rotation issue, and it eventually creeps back in. It is also odd to me that clearing the local video storage would have any effect on this. Is there some other data that is in the local storage that is gumming…

  6. Tabbed mobile navigation

    Currently, I cannot do meaningful work on the Box mobile app. It would be amazing if we could have tabs to enable the navigation within different folders/content at the same time. One tab could be a folder, another tab previewing a doc, another tab, editing a Box Note.

  8. PDF Bookmarks

    Please add back the ability to use built in PDF Bookmarks to the Box IOS App. This ability was present up until about 2 months ago now when apparently a library used to render PDF's was upgraded causing this ability to be lost.

    This has been an important feature for us as our users access large 50+ page PDF documents on a regular basis. During a meeting when directed to access a specific page within the document and bookmarks still worked, a user could simply select the bookmark which would send them to the exact page needed. Now users must…

  9. OCR support for Japanese in Android

    OCR cannot recognize Japanese language in Android devices.
    https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500000212121-Using-Document-Scanning

    It would be very helpful if mobile app can recognize Japanese language when using Document Scanning.

  10. Tag and Metadata support still missing on Mobile?

    Hello, new user here evaluating Box.com for several cloud integrations within our company. I am searching the community for info on searching/filtering by tags and/or metadata via the Box mobile apps. I am confused... I am seeing replies back from Box support dating all the way back to 2017 saying that tag/metadata support on mobile is one of the most requested features. Yet neither seem to have been implemented as of Q2 2020? Am I missing something? What is the justification for lack of attention to such fundamental (and highly requested) features for your mobile apps? Whatever the case, it…

  13. Request for improvement of Box mobile app problem when enlarging image data.

    This is a feature improvement request regarding the preview function of Box mobile app.

    When using Box mobile app to preview and enlarge scanned paper or photographed image data on a mobile device,

    the quality of the image data is poorer than when previewing and enlarging image data in Box GUI operated with a web browser, and small text cannot be displayed.

    Reviewing PDFs of A3 size architectural drawings or checking details of diagrams in manuals is inconvenient with Box mobile app.

    Image quality remains constant even when previewing image data using Box GUI in a web browser and enlarging…

  14. I would like to be able to go to another folder in "Favorites" while opening a subfolder of a folder registered in "Favorites".

    ■I would like to be able to go to another folder in "Favorites" while opening a subfolder of a folder registered in "Favorites".

    When I open a subfolder of a folder registered in "Favorites" on the iPad version of the Box app, tapping "Favorites" does not respond.
    If you want to browse another folder in the Favorites list, you have to go back up the hierarchy to the Favorites list.
    Also, even if I open "All Files" and then tap "Favorites", the hierarchy that has been displayed until now is displayed, which increases man-hours and is inconvenient for work efficiency.

  15. Overwrite when uploading a file with the same name in Box for iOS

    If a file with the same name as a file stored in the Box is uploaded, the Web browser will overwrite the file and update the file version.
    However, on iPhones and iPads, when a file with the same name is attempted to be uploaded to Box for iOS, a "name conflict" error occurs and it cannot be overwritten.

    Currently, 4,000 employees on site are provided with iPads to manage drawings and report forms in Box.
    It is possible to add notes on the Box preview screen. However, since the added notes are lost when printed or downloaded, we would…

  16. Ability to authenticate the Box for EMM app from Safari to Microsoft Edge

    When logging in with the mobile app "Box for EMM", if SSO is linked with AzureAD, the built-in Safari will start and the sign-in screen will be displayed.
    I would like to see you implement the ability to switch this to Microsoft Edge using an App Configuration Policy in Intune.

    The Slack for EMM app has this function, so I will share the URL for your reference.
    https://slack.com/intl/ja-jp/help/articles/115002579426-OrG-

    The reason is that our company manages iPhone / iPad using AzureAD × Intune.
    We use AzureA conditional access when accessing each SaaS, and we set "Requires an approved client app" for…

  17. Option to not leave the data on the device

    If the user presses the + button and selects "Take photos or videos" and encounters an upload error when uploading the photos or videos taken, those files are automatically saved in the device's library.
    Since the data remaining on the device poses a security risk, you need an option to not leave the data on the device in the application settings.

  18. When we open a PDF with the Box app (Box for EMM) on iPad, the Activity column appears on the right side of the screen.

    When we open a PDF with the Box app (Box for EMM) on iPad, the Activity column appears on the right side of the screen.
    It takes a lot of work to maximize this PDF, as you have to make one click each time.
    We would like to prevent Activity from being displayed by default when previewing a PDF.

    If we use our iPad vertically, Activity will not be displayed, but it is assumed that we will use it horizontally.

    Users with a co-admin or primary admin designation should be able to access the Admin Console when logged into the Box for iPad application (vs having to use the web browser)

  20. Ability to choose a timestamp on the photo itself when taken.

    Time/date watermark on the actual photo would help for verification of pictures when they are actually taken in case someone modifies the file.
