Accessing Box Notes from the web is easy.:
-
Go to box.com

Click Notes in the left navigation.
Box Notes is one of our most popular collaboration features and a cornerstone of collaboration at Box. We are committed to providing a feature-rich Box Notes experience and will be focusing our development on powering that effort on both web and mobile.
