Box is great. This app is not.

I love box, but on Windows 10, this app has no local sync and no drag and drop. This app is no better than a web browser.

Love It!

Great free Cloud App! I've had Box for a couple of years now and out of the 10GB storage space for free accounts, I have used 1GB. I take lots of pics too! So just an excellent app overall!!! Very secure!

A few missing pieces

Drag and drop does not work, hopefully soon it will to remove the need for Tagle and Box Sync. Enterprise Environment. Device pinning is bypassed. The app gives you the OPTION to set a pin code although does not require it even though BOX Enterprise settings mandate a passcode. With those two things fixed, this will be a very nice addition to a business arsenal.

Great so far!

The old app ("Box for Windows 8") kept crashing after the last update. I contacted Box, and today they sent me an email notifying me the new Universal app had been released. Short story is it works! Smoother than the old app ever was - uploading and downloading files for editing works great. The best part about it? I'M DOING THIS ALL ON MY NOKIA LUMIA 2520 with Windows RT! THANK YOU SO MUCH BOX for backwards compatibility and great customer service!

I's okay

I would like to confirm that my failure to log in this App by Windows 10 (which was raised on July 2nd, 2016) has been improved. Now, I can log in this App by both iPhone and Windows. I highly appreciate this improvement from the developer.

Confusing and hard to use

First off, if there are instructions or a help file, I can't find where they're located. Like so many apps these days, everything is hidden and good luck finding anything if you don't already know where it is. Give me actual menus any day - this "click around and see if you can happen across what you need" routine is for the birds. I expected much better than this from Box - I've seen kids' first programming attempts that were more user-friendly than this.

Great improvement

Really enjoy the new universal UI. I was hoping for file & folder drag and drop functionality with the new app but it's still not working. Not sure if this is a universal app limitation to work with the windows explorer? Otherwise main futures are there, great job!

An ok start but needs work to be daily driver

- Add support for transparent live tile - feedback option from within the app does not trigger recipient email correctly - share link / copy link to clipboard feature on folder is broken - nowhere to see file download progress (I expected this under 'transfers' menu

Great service, app not finished -Update: Better

On PC make transparent taskbar icon, add ability to put folders in directly. On mobile fix the hamburger menu layout and remove white bar at the top. (fixed) Fix that, and I will rate it 5 stars, the service itself and syncing speed is very good... I hope you will support this app in the future because it is very good for both Microsoft's new app platform and Box service. -Update: After a long time, the app got updated, I need to check the PC version of it to see other changes, but it now deserves 5 stars....
