Ability to upvote or interact with content in Box with Emojis, similar to what you can do in Slack
This is especially important if you want to have a large vote on content in Box (e.g. Box Hackathon) without massively blasting everybody with notifications.

Fix broken "reverse waterfall" permissions
Fix broken "reverse waterfall" permissions.
When I change subfolder permissions to give someone higher permissions (e.g. Editor to Co-Owner), it changes the parent folder permissions too.
This makes sense that you wouldn't be able to give someone lower permissions in the subfolder than the parent folder, but makes no sense the other way around.

Allow me to set default sorting to alphabetical anywhere
Please, pretty please — allow me to set default sort of folder contents to alphabetical within a folder, for any folder. Should be an option under Settings for the folder.
I have folders numbered for steps in a publication process, and I have to click "Name" every single *#$% time I display the folder list because it defaults to most recent. I may need to access any step in the process at any point in time; recent is USELESS to me. This is sooooo cognitively draining because I am touching dozens to 100s of files a day.
Note: this is…

Bring back the comments icon
I get so many notifications it's hard to manage notifications. Can you bring back the comment icon on a file that someone has added their notes to? Unless I click on the file to open it up, I can't tell someone has left a comment or change. Thanks!

Admin, content owner, and/or content co-owners can lock folders in the native UI so that they can't be moved.
Make Owner/Co-Owner folder lock available in native web interface. It's really bad if a folder that shouldn't be moved gets moved by an Editor. Right now, this is only available via API https://developer.box.com/reference/post-folder-locks/

Ability to change file/folder name rich text
It would be lovely if a user could change the font/color/bold/underline on file and folder names.
We have a scenario where we are going to "archive" certain shared folders and lump them under a single folder but it would be nice if we could change the color of the text of the folder name to say red and maybe make it bold. It would stand out in the list of all folders in the root.2 votes -
Show size of all files in a folder
When downloading, it would be useful to compare the total size of what has been downloaded to the total size of what is being downloaded. Files have sizes listed, not sure about folders, but a total of whatever is on the page, or what is selected would be useful.

Make anonymous editing from "Someone" easier to investigate through the native Box interface, rather than requiring Event Log API or Reports
Make anonymous editing from "Someone" easier to investigate through the native Box interface, rather than requiring Event Log or User Activity Report (e.g. did this come from Shared Link with "People with Link" permission, a File Request, email upload, etc.)
E.g. "Folder Details" --> "Modified" section says "Modified by xxxxx through Microsoft Office Online integration" or "Downloaded by Someone/Anonymous through Shared Link" or "Uploaded by Someone/Anonymous through File Request"

Display password for a shared link
When you set a password for a shared link, you cannot verify what you've entered.
It would be great to be able to see the password entered, or at least have a second box to reenter the password (to be sure it's correct).3 votes -
Column with type of update and badge if unseen by me
I would like to see a column or some other means to see the type of update made to the file vs current view just showing the time and account that updated. Example: comment added, new version uploaded, edited, etc.
It would be even more valuable to understand if I have seen the update, similar to "updated" icon on recents view page.
Currently I have to reconcile by the updated time if the update is new to me which often typically requires going in to preview area to track changes manually, which can be difficult and tedious and sometimes impossible…

Need to add the "Add or Create Folder" button/option just like on the old UI
A HUGE part of our co-admins job is to add folders to managed users accounts. Taking away this functionality is a major oversight and needs to be added to the new UI.

Box new user interface option that mimics the Admin Console Content Manager user experience
Box new user interface option that mimics the Admin Console Content Manager user experience… REALLY valuable for people who are forced to use Box Drive, even though they would prefer the web app.

Use an image in place of the folder icon for folders
We would like to use an image in place of the folder icon for folders. We embed a couple of root folders on our website so that our distributors have access to resources. When they click into the root folder, they see a list of other folders. It would be good if these folders could be represented by a suitable image instead of the blue folder icon. Can this functionality be developed please?

Box Web - make file icons smaller
Prologis would like the large file icons in All Files > recent files to be smaller. As they are now, they aren't very helpful - the previews are too small, and you can't see the full name of the file, making it difficult to identify.

BoxDrive-like UI for web apps
I want you to change the UI of the web application like Windows Explorer or BoxDrive.
Specifically, I would like the content list screen to be split into two, with the folder list displayed on the left and the contents of the folder displayed on the right.
If you use this UI, you won't have to switch screens every time you want to display another folder, so I think it will improve work efficiency.<WebアプリのBoxDriveのようなUI>
WebアプリのUIをWindowsエクスプローラやBoxDriveのように変更してほしい。
具体的には、コンテンツ一覧画面を２分割して、左側にフォルダ一覧、右側にフォルダ内コンテンツが表示されるようにしてほしい。
このUIにすれば、別のフォルダ内を表示するときにいちいち画面遷移しなくて済むので業務効率があがると思います。1 vote
