The best content experience

• New preview capabilities for 100+ file types
• High fidelity rendering of PowerPoint, PDFs, photos, videos and more

Enhanced productivity

• New sidebar for featuring comments
• Real-time search for files within your account

To claim your free 50GB, all you have to do is download the new Box for iPhone and iPad app (v3.0) and log in to it between January 15, 2014 and February 15, 2014. If you already have the Box app and are logged in to the app when you download the new version, you must log out and then log back in to receive the upgrade to your account.

@Yuga…say i download Box for my iPad, and granted that i was awarded the free 50GB. If i use the same box login for my box app on my Android Device,..do you think the 50GB will be carried over? I mean, i’ll be able to use the 50GB for both my iOS and Android devices (sharing the same account)??

If it’s the same account, I believe it will carry over.

actually I obtain my 50GB box way back from Sony Ericsson xperia promo last 2011 or early 2012. I’ve installed box then on my other Android devices and now on my iPhone and still have the same 50GB account.
