  1. [R5] Box 5/5 · US Amazing for use with OpenClaw: Great working with openclaw as file system allows you to share documents via openclaw with 3rd parties in controlled manner.
  2. [R11] Box 5/5 · US Box is the best: La aplicación es una de las más seguras y que ha estado ya por muchos años. Eso la hace confiable. 100 % recomendada
  3. [R17] Box 5/5 · US Great App: Box is the best for storing and retrieving files on the fly ✊🏾😎 I’m a freelance musician… I play in about 12 bands plus I get a lot of referrals… this app keeps me well organized when mp3s and pdfs starts piling up 😅
  4. [R21] Box 3/5 · US More features: Need to give more options for share and download files and to open on app itself
  5. [R1] Box 1/5 · US Very clunky and disconnected from the rest of the org sharing and retrieving: Efficiency impediment
  6. [R2] Box 5/5 · US Great: Great easy to use.
  7. [R3] Box 3/5 · US “New Look” horrible: The New Look makes it harder to see the full file or folder name. Larger font and icons plus dead space on right leaves no room for the full name. I don’t care if it matches iOS 26, keep the app useful for the user. I’ve used the iPhone Box app from when it was first offered. I love Box, but the app is getting more user unfriendly each update chasing glamor instead of usabilit
  8. [R4] Box 2/5 · US Sloppy: This USED to be a good app but they have really let it go. After you delete files, to add more there is a “+” button that doesn’t show until you press “cancel” which of course always makes you wonder if they are undoing what you just did. And even that setup changes weekly. It’s a mess.
  9. [R6] Box 3/5 · US If only the iOS app was not ridiculously slow…: If only the iOS app was not ridiculously slow, Box would be the absolute best. Please fix this
  10. [R7] Box 1/5 · US Recent update: Very slow loading of files and folders
  11. [R10] Box 1/5 · US Always crashing, doesn’t always open files, laggy and slow: Major fixes needed. Using the camera that is built in to the app is a nightmare. It lags SO much, takes 5 minutes to take 1 picture and that’s if you’re lucky enough for it to even do that. Now I have resorted to taking photos with my phone and upload them through the app. I don’t like doing this because my camera is full of work pictures
  12. [R23] Box 5/5 · US Box is the best: Box offers 10 GB of storage plus can edit .txt or code! recommended for developers
  13. [R35] Box 5/5 · US Better than Dropbox: This app has way more storage without charging you like Dropbox
  14. [R37] Box 1/5 · US Stagnant functionality and broken billing: I have been a customer for 10+ years, and it is clearly time to move on. If you are looking to host family digital assets, this app has stopped in its development for you years ago. The photo sync is borderline broken. Pretty much useless if you have a lot of photos. They have clearly abandoned the consumer market. Their billing system is broken too. T
  15. [R60] Box 3/5 · GB Good app, feature request below for developers: Switched to Box because 10gb of free storages meets all my needs, the app is clean and does the job although can be slow at times to download previews. Feature request for opening word documents, can the quick option for pages be put under the “open in word” menu action? Thanks
  16. [R14] Box 4/5 · US Transparency: Love the app I have been using it for a year and it’s the best cloud storage app I have ever used plus it has tons of other features that make life easy for me… my only complaint is that box is not more transparent about the updates… each time box updates it essentially the says the same thing… bug fixes. There are some things that I have come to work around but it would amazing see
  17. [R22] Box 1/5 · US HORRIBLE: Horrible customer service. There are much better and less expensive platforms.
  18. [R61] invideo AI 1/5 · US I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS APP!: I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS APP! I’ve had the same issue twice now. The first time I purchased extra credits, my card was charged, but the credits were never added to my account. I contacted support, and instead of resolving the issue, I was told the credits had already been used, even though they were never added to my account. I waited a few weeks before trying again
  19. [R76] invideo AI 1/5 · US Not worth it: App keeps crashing! Agents eat up credits but not good output. They don’t believe in giving refund
  20. [R26] Box 5/5 · US Reliable: The most reliable and safe form of data storage
  21. [R32] Box 5/5 · US Client sharing: I am a custom home builder in Central Texas and I do cost plus contract with my client. I share with him all the invoices and plans. This app right here is the best cloud sharing app I’ve ever used. Once you open files they’re there for you to open even when you don’t have a strong signal. Google Drive takes forever for a file to download. Boxes an amazing tool.
  22. [R44] Box 5/5 · US Best option for small business: Box has transformed our small business, enabling us to share documents seamlessly with our Executive Team. Easy to use and secure!
  23. [R64] invideo AI 1/5 · US Huge SCAM‼️: This app is a total scam. It doesn’t tell you how many credits you’ll need for a project, then once you’re working, it continues to have you “add credits” to continue. Huge SCAM‼️
  24. [R67] invideo AI 1/5 · US Horrible app: I bought the 20$ bundle and I used it to make one video and it didn’t even complete the video before i ran out of credits such a waste of money.
  25. [R79] invideo AI 1/5 · US Very Disappointing Credit System: I paid $20 for a plan with 75 credits, and my very first 60-second video used almost every credit. That’s unacceptable. One short video should not consume an entire month’s subscription. The app needs a much more transparent and fair credit system. I regret purchasing this plan.
  26. [R78] invideo AI 3/5 · US Ruined a bit: People used to have credits for Minutes of 10. Now basic people only have 5! This is outrageous!
  27. [R92] invideo AI 5/5 · US Models galore: The app features many choices of generative models. I can create agents for different clients, and organize my creations in projects.
  28. [R100] invideo AI 1/5 · US “Offers free use”: No it does not. So little credits you can’t use it for free. FYI.
  29. [R102] invideo AI 3/5 · GB Only 4 videos: It’s good quality but you can only make 4 videos in the free version. )
