    Support for Spotlight on macOS is out with the release of version 2.53 (https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/53361463306515-Box-Drive-v2-53-Release-Notes).


    The request will be left in the "gathering feedback" stage, as Finder/File Explorer search functionality does remain limited.

    I find the Box Drive search tool very much inferior to Windows' own search. It only lists a few files, I can't sort them by name, date and other attributes, and it doesn't work offline. I uninstalled Box Drive and reverted to Box Sync. Please continue offering both functionalities and improve the local search options for Box Drive. In its current state Box Drive will only work for users with few documents. We usually have tens of thousands of files on Box and need fast and highly sophisticated local search functions.
