I am trying to creat a new task from the iOS app and  there is no option to do so in the comment/activity screen like I’m used to seeing in the web version.  Furthermore, I can use the web version to create the task on my mobile device but when I try and log in to the web version it automatically opens the box app instead of loading the web interface.

 The Box Doc Gen Template Creator Add-In for Microsoft Word enables users to upload images when dynamically generating documentsWe are incredibly excited to announce full image support for Box Doc Gen templates! This feature enables users to dynamically merge PNG and JPEG images directly into Box Doc Gen templates when leveraging the Box Doc Gen Template Creator Add-In for Microsoft Word. Previously, in order to populate Box Doc Gen templates with images, users can only request a Base64 string, which limited their ability to generate well-formatted custom documents with images. This feature streamlines the Box Doc Gen template creation process and provides a much more user friendly and frictionless experience.Box Doc Gen empowers teams to automatically generate custom, error-free documents ina matter of seconds — reducing turnaround times, mitigating risk, and eliminating manualdata entry while improving operational efficiency. With just a few clicks, you can leveragedata from any data
