Ratings and reviews

Latest version is using up gigabytes of local storage for data, uploads fail due to lack of local storage, it's a bit of a mess at the moment (I don't really trust it to work properly, and have to spend time on housekeeping my phone as it uses up all the free space available, and I get the "some functions may not be available" problem). Kind of dissappointing as it used to be problem free.

App is good, the speed and facilities are good and the backup support is helpful, if not especially capable. I'd recommend the service and the app, but my single biggest issue with this service, and it's a HUGE negative is the fact that shared links require people you're casually sharing to sign into an account of their, and it seems, in an app on their own device. Quick and easy share of a file to be viewed just in a browser by someone without a Box account seems to be impossible.

I've been using this for personal stuff for years. It syncs with my laptop and I can access Box via a browser on any device. I have had one or two minor issues with this app but have found that uninstalling and reinstalling sorts things out. So far I really can't fault it. It's the best thing out there for what I need. But I would like a way of letting at least one person have full access after I die, without letting them have the password now. Is that possible?
