Mobile Preview log
Currently, mobile app's Preview action of some type of documents is logged as "download." It doesn't show actual actions, so it should be logged as "Preview."
2 votesOn Mobile, we use the download API call within the content SDK to grab the file for Preview purposes, which is why it is recorded as a download.

Password Change Prompt on Mobile Login
If an end user must reset their password (either mandated by admin or enterprise settings), we would like that notification to appear when the user tries to log in on the mobile app
We would also like a notification when the password is going to expire (i.e., your password will expire in 7 days)
2 votesWe will re-evaluate this request based on additional customer demand.

Enable pinch-in/pinch-out on mobile browser previews
We share files as open-links to our users and external collaborators who do not have a Box account. They view documents on mobile.
1 voteThis is an important feature, but is not on the 2019 roadmap.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

Enhanced Error Page when Standard App is DISABLED & Box for EMM is ENABLED
In companies that have the standard Box App disabled due to using Box for EMM, the current error page when users attempt to log into the regular Box app (that they download from their phone's app store) isn't intuitive at all - it simply tells them that this app is disabled and to contact their admin.
In EIDs where Box for EMM is used, this error page should instead let users know that their company uses Box for EMM and to go to their company's app store to download Box for EMM.
1 voteThe error message is generic because it includes several states where you can get into this incorrect flow. A change would take a significant amount of effort that currently is lower priority than other items on our roadmap.

Add JAMF as supported EMM provider
Currently, JAMF login flow is not the same as actual supported EMM providers (like Okta)

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.
