Allow XML on mobile to open in the Settings app
When a .mobileconfig file is opened from a shared link on mobile and the Box app is NOT installed, the file opens on m.box.com and can be downloaded from Safari. When the app is installed, the file's raw text is displayed. There's no way to download the profile when sent as a shared link, and the app is installed

Ability to type Shared Link URL directly in iOS or iOS EMM App.
When user has URL for shared link, they need to type it in email or browser, even Box App is there. Thus, would request to have ability in iOS (or Mobile) Apps to allow URLs to be typed directly in Box App.

Navigation bar at the bottom of iPad App is annoying.
I have accidentally tapped "All Files" icon when we wanted to see "Favorites."
The ask is for the ability to configure navigation bar to be hidden (hide by default).

Currently, m.box.com uses content_updated and webapp uses updated as the timestamp in list view. To avoid confusion, customer want us to use the same timestamp.

File Versions on Mobile
Client would like to have ability for document versions to be available on Mobile. Specifically, able to review whether a document has more than one version and be able to preview older versions.
1 voteWe will not support this feature because this seems to be an edge case. Most of our customers on mobile are always trying to pull up the most up to date documentation. We can see this causing confusion for our end user when they have to manage versioning on mobile.

Most enterprises in Box allow their users to automatically accept collaboration requests. Building this feature would only benefit a small number of organizations. For now we plan to concentrate on more impactful requests, however we may reconsider as more supporters allow this.

Customize mobile usage by group
Actually it is just possible to customize usage of mobile devices for the complete enterprise. But different group may have different needs (e.g. Sales may use mobile applications, while R&D may not use any mobile device at all).

No doc preview on web app via mobile
When external users click in the shared link without using the Box app (so only on the phone browser), they do not get preview capabilities in the browser. It only gives them the option to download the content which is impossible.
Dropbox does allow this feature. Would you consider developing it?

Enhance Word Previews
MS viewer in Box in iOS - specifically the Word viewer. It used to only show the top navigation bar when you long pressed the screen even on the first and last page.
Now the nav bars do not go away on those 2 pages. For docs with very narrow margins at top and bottom and they are only 1 or 2 pages long.

Enable users/developers to set Content-Type header on file download
A user requests you treat .PKPass files with a different Content-Type header on download so the iPhone can handle it properly and add it to the user's Passbook.
However, other users would like to be able to influence/set the Content-Type header when initiating a download.
It would be helpful for folks who are trying to have greater control over the user experience, particularly when there is no baked in support for every file type.

Block users from taking screenshots on phone when Box Mobile app is open
We are concerned about users taking screenshots of confidential information on their phones
0 votesWe are unlikely to have this feature on our roadmap for a long time. Even if we were to build this feature, users could use other devices to capture confidential information. Instead, we recommend using security tools like watermarking to protect confidential information.
