Submit a Feature Request via Adobe UserVoice
Since native Box integration is currently unavailable on the mobile app, submitting direct feedback helps the Adobe product team prioritize this feature in future updates.
Adobe uses the UserVoice platform to collect, review, and track feature requests from the community. Submitting a clear use case for Box integration on mobile devices increases the likelihood of it being considered for upcoming development cycles.
Open your mobile or desktop web browser and go to the official Adobe Acrobat feedback page at https://acrobat.uservoice.com/.
Click the sign-in option in the top corner and log in with your Adobe credentials to ensure you receive updates regarding your suggestion.
Use the search bar to look for 'Box Cloud Integration Mobile'. If another user has already requested this, you can click 'Vote' to add your support.

Use the Native Files App (Workaround)
While waiting for native integration, you can use your mobile device's built-in file manager to open PDF files from Box directly into Acrobat Reader.
Try WPS Office Mobile for Seamless Document Management
If you need a powerful, lightweight mobile PDF and document reader that interfaces easily with your device's native file ecosystem and third-party cloud services, WPS Office is an excellent free alternative. It offers comprehensive PDF viewing, editing, and annotating features in one unified app.
