Whenever I open a file, it automatically shows up in "recent files"

1) How do I stop files showing up in "recent files"

2) How can I clear it so no files show up in recent files. I tried clearing the cache but that didn't work.

  Hi there, 

  Welcome to the Box Community!

  There's no way to stop files you've most recently accessed from showing up in your "Recent Files", BUT you always have the option to hide this section by clicking that Upward arrow symbol on the side.

  

  Thanks for post and let us know how else we can help!

  Best,

  Hi there, 

  Yes, there is no option to hide the "Recent" tab in Box mobile apps.
