Request for improvement of mobile app features
I would like to request improvements to the following features of the mobile app:
1.Regarding the ‘biometric authentication’ when the security option ‘Require passcode’ is enabled, biometric authentication cannot be used on Android tablets equipped with facial recognition. I would like it to be modified so that it can be used.
2.Regarding the selection of passcode timeout time, there is an ‘immediate’ option on iOS, but not on Android. I would like it to be modified so that ‘immediate’ can be selected on Android as well.

word comment email
We wanted Box to send an email notification to a specific collaborator when we comment in Word Online using Word's comment feature. It would be nice if the email includes the link to the comment in the Word Document.

Make inactive users their own category vs. remaining as licensed users
Inactive users shouldn't be regarded as licensed users; we need to maintain user history so we never delete users.

Google Workspace Add-on - Remove Collaborators
When a customer uses the Google Workspace Add-on (either clicking the Box icon in Google Drive to move a Google document to Box OR using the Gmail integration) and that document has Collaborators who were added in Google, then Box will emails all those Collaborators invites to the new Box folder. Multiple customers have complained about this.
For my customer, Coursera, their main content storage solution is Google. Only the Legal Team uses Box for retention. When the Legal Team moves a file from GDrive to Box, it then sends Collaboration requests to all Google Collaborators on the file (many…

View notifications in separate webpage
It would be great if we can view all notifications in one webpage the same as you can do with tasks instead of just a drop down window.

Out of office notice
Hi,
it would be nice if we received messages about out of office notes or e-mail errors (wrong address) for invitations and, for example, workflows. At the moment I don't know if someone just didn't respond or didn't receive the invitation / task.

Notification to BOX Folder Co-Owner(s) when Owner has been removed/deleted
The current behavior in BOX when a Folder owner is removed / deleted from the system is the Folder is no longer available.
The process, in my experience, to recover the folder is not obvious, quick nor easy.
I propose the BOX system notify all Folder Co-owners of a pending Folder removal / deletion and allow 2 weeks for the co-owner(s) to determine whether the Folder should be removed from BOX and if the decision is to keep the Folder active to determine the new Owner as well.1 vote -
Avoid signed document shared link expiration notifications on internal-only sign requests
Whenever a document sent via Box Sign is completed, all recipients receive an email containing a shared link to the document. This shared link expires 2 weeks later, generating a "this link is about to expire" for all of the same recipients. These notifications can be annoying, and moreover don't clearly state that it is a signed document link that is expiring (it is just a generic notification).
Our company often sends documents for signature between internal recipients only, who can always access their documents by logging into Box and finding them in the My Requests section (or…

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…

Assign user to item in Box App
As a user, I'd like to be able to assign a specific user in Box App rather than relying on free text or metadata drop down fields so that I can send a notification or task and see additional user information such as email and profile photo

Add tag support for OSX files in Box Drive
File color labels (tags) in OSX do not work on Box Drive.
Competing cloud storage platforms (like Dropbox) easily handle this.
In a MacOS team production workflow, tags are essential for production processes. Labels allow effortless communication to other team members on the status of file production. This is an industry-standard way of working which is totally broken in Box Drive.
Please review the many MANY past requests for this feature in these forums. It is a long-standing issue that deserves attention!

Send a notification sent to user's when their password is about to expire.
We use read only sync as a primary use case. Because users do not log into the webapp, they are not aware when their password expires and files are not being synced.
1 voteThank you for this request!
We will review this with additional demand.

Adds the ability to hide the notifications that appear when you open an auto-locked file on a box drive for all tenant users.
Tenants that automatically lock files in Box Drive will be notified that when another user opens a file that is already open from Box Drive, the file will be locked and opened in read-only mode.
Add the ability to hide this notification for the entire tenant.2 votes -
multiple users in one document
Create a notification that pops up inside the document when two users have the same document open and when one user makes changes. This feature is in Drop Box and helps cut down on multiple versions of the same document being saved.

clear notifications
We need a notifications dashboard, similar to the task dashboard, where we can select all and mark complete. PLEASE!!! I have a ton of notifications that I've addressed but are still showing up in my "notifications" alert. I don't have time to go through them one-by-one to close them out. Please address issue ASAP.

Use customer's own email gateway to send email notifications
Many customers in regulated industries do NOT like the fact that email notifications from Box come from the Box Service with a noreply@box.com email address. The emails that Box sends on the user behalf do not go through a customer's email security or e-discovery system thus it creates problems in regulated environment that need to capture ALL communications between internal users and external customers. Box needs to have a configuration where a customer can configure their own SMTP gateway that Box can use to send email notifications with the proper TO and FROM data so they can better…

Update invited collaborators expiration settings
Enterprise Settings > Content & Sharing > Invited collaborators expiration settings > Notify affected users
Currently, we know scope of the notification includes co-owner who is collaborated in the folder itself.
But, we would like you to also notify co-owner who is collaborated in upper folder.2 votes -
Split and transfer data to several users when the owner is deleted (including folder assignment)
Hi,
it would be nice if I could split the data of a user to be deleted among more than 1 other user.If, for example, a department head leaves the company and another head takes over the disciplinary part on an interim basis, but the technical issues are still mapped in the department, it makes sense to be able to separate the structures. We are currently transferring the disciplinary page manually.
Best regards,

Show Folder Size in GB/MB at root and tree level, inside
To see, at a glance inside the Box.com web interface inspector, the file size allocated to each parent folder and should I click in, each sibling folder. Right now, the interface only gives the number of files, which is deeply unhelpful when trying to assess what folders are taking up how much storage...
