  1. Separate current mobile admin console features to iOS and Android-specific

    The current mobile settings in Admin Console apply for both iOS and Android. For organizations with complex requirements and technical solutions, it does not always make sense to have the same settings on both OS. It would be helpful to have the set of options for iOS and the set of options for Android.

    We don’t plan on adding any new MDM providers. However, if you can deploy a managed app config it will work. Let us know if you have any pending questions.

  3. Provide 1 month notice before releasing new functionality

    This is not only for Box for EMM but also other apps like Box for iOS/Android /etc.

    We currently plan on monthly releases. EMM tends to release 2 weeks after the standard app, assuming there are no major issues discovered.

  8. Need to be able to capture as bi-tonal in the "Scan" setting

    This will improve the quality of the image captured and reduce the file size of the upload.

  13. Able to change reading mode (single/ double page) when previewing PDF doc

    With the new tablet from version 4.7x. Previewing PDF file on landscape mode will force a double page rendering.

    The double page mode works fine when the pdf is created in portrait layout. but with document in landscape (e.g.: pptx) it reduces readability as page is scaled to fit.

    This doesn’t sound like a big issue for Chromebooks. We will re-evaluate based on additional suggestions.

  14. Disable the automatic creation of the My Photos folder when installing Mobile App.

    Disable the automatic upload of camera images and the subsequent creation of a folder to store the uploads.

    Thanks for your note! This does not happen unless you turn on the setting.

  15. Grey out "Require passcode" option when Enterprise requires a passcode.

    It may make for a better UX if, when the Enterprise requires a passcode for the mobile app, the option was greyed out and unable to be toggled.

    As it stands, when you turn it off, it prompts you to create a passcode and then turns back on.

    Thank you for the feedback! This change is a low priority when compared to some of our other asks.

  16. Prevent personal email clients from being opened in Box for EMM via 'Email Link' option

    The 'Email Link' functionality in Box for EMM, used when emailing a shared link, directly prompts the user for email clients recognized on the device (e.g. default email client and Gmail). We would like to be able to restrict Box for EMM from presenting the option of the personal email client.

    Or, as a fallback, restrict the 'Email Link' option entirely, as it serves as a security loophole for our team.

    There is no method for the Box mobile app to distinguish between a personal and business email address.

    Even if we were able to remove the email functionality, which many customers use, end users would still be able to copy the shared link and paste it within their desired email client.

    The shared link itself should be where proper security is enforced. These restrictions can be managed through the Admin Console.

    There is currently a select all button in the lower left of the screen.

  18. Prompt to accept TOS for external users

    Scenario:

    An enterprise requires custom TOS to be accepted. If those TOS change, external users no longer see the folders they had access to from that company. They do not receive a message that explains why.
    It would be helpful if they were directed to log in via computer and accept Terms of Service.

    There are no APIs available for the mobile apps to perform TOS functionality.

  20. Preview in icon rather than the normal file type icon display

    We uses several files, often with long naming conventions, within folders. We generally access these files through iPads while working remotely.

    Preview often does not load for all of our files so we would like to have the file type icon that normally is next to the file name be a small preview of the file. This would allow our agents to quickly see a glimpse of the file before having to load the preview for all of the files.

    The loading time for the file and folder tree would cause massive performance issues if they were thumbnail views. That being said, we may explore alternative methods to resolving the long file name issue.
