  1. Proton Drive API

    It would be amazing to have an API (like https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/about-sdk) to be able to make scripts that could automate uploading important files to ProtonDrive using a language like Python or similar.

  2. Sort Items By Type (E.g. Folders First, Then Files, Etc.)

    Please add support to sort files/folders by type, such as being able to show folders first, then files below it -- when viewing items in Proton Drive.

  4. Crucial information on reinstalltion is not documented, seriuosly impacting on what is cloud stored. Default setting not appropriate

    New features:
    * Relevant documentation
    * The removal process in the app should NOT have the default set to "Remove Proton Drive settings and previously remembered credentials"
    * Removal of a named folder from the list of folders that set to be synced is too simple.

    I could not find any documentation on this, only found out by multiple tests.

    If your plan is to reinstall the Proton Drive app and expect to return to syncing as before with all previous versions intact - Be careful.

    If you have to reinstall on the same PC/laptop at program removal time you…

  6. Auto-Lock After 'x' Number Of Minutes Of Inactivity (E.g. Logout If Idle For 10 Minutes)

    I'd really like the ability to set the web app(s) -- e.g. drive.proton.me, mail.proton.me, etc., etc. -- to automatically lock if idle for 'x' number of minutes, such as after 2, 5, or 10 minutes of inactivity. Currently, the only other option is to uncheck the "stay logged in" at login, and even then it only logs you out if you've closed the browser (some people keep the web browser open indefinitely).

  7. View shared items without option to download

    When I want to share a folder or file with another Proton Drive user I can either put in their user info for them to access it or I can send them the link. When they get it, they can go into their Drive and see my share in their "Sharing" section and they can view it without downloading. I'd also like to see restrictions where i can make my file/folder viewable only and they can't download it.
    I think the current way of sharing, where they have to download it makes my information very insecure. Because the shares always…

  8. Family sharing

    Add the ability to have a family plan for Drive like what Google Drive has. I currently have a family plan with Google drive and would like the ability to do that with Proton Drive which will allow me to finally break away from google completely.

  9. Upload Folder

    None of the other main cloud storage providers offer this either, so I'm not sure if it's a limitation, but I'd like the option to Upload a Folder, not just a File. This is for both web and app.

    Copying individual files becomes laborious when backing up items that have further embedded folders, files and hidden files.

  11. Allow merge of folders within Proton Drive

    I've uploaded a significant amount of data, however some of it may be duplicate. When I try to merge a folders within Proton Drive (select and say move to folder where a folder with that name already exists) I get an error about a folder with that name already existing in the destination rather and being prompted for whether I was to skip or overwrite.

  12. Video Thumbnail

    For videos uploaded to Drive, please include a thumbnail image from that video to uniquely identify each video, instead of only manually adding a title to each video.

  13. Separate data limits for Proton Mail and Drive

    Currently, as far as I understand, Proton Ultimate paid plan gives 500GB across all the mail accounts AND Drive.
    This is silly and annoying... I have already asked for and voted for MUCH higher Drive data capacities (minimum 1TB) because 500GB is simply not adequate.
    But to then have to worry that the 15 email addresses I can use with my Proton Ultimate would start eating into my Drive data is crazy! If I value something enough to pay for cloud storage, I consider it IMPORTANT and don't want the possibility of a bunch of emails with heavy attachments causing…

  14. Keyboard shortcuts for powerusers

    Have a tighter integration for keyboard shortcuts:
    - Navigation with keyboard shortcuts should be possible (arrow up, down, Enter to open a folder
    - F2 for renaming folders
    - Copy/Cut/Paste
    - Share files

  15. drive / document editor / onlyoffice

    Hello world.

    I had to upgrade my account just to see there is nothing worthy in the PM Drive except simple file storage. I will cancel my subscription. It would be nice to only see what is available in Drive for free.

    I am considering move away from Google. But Drive with Document Editor is essential.

    Please consider adding online document editor to PM Drive, for instance OnlyOffice.

    Thanks :-)

  16. Sync Timing - Preset specific time, date, frequency to sync files & folders to ProtonDrive

    What is missing and to make things infinitely easier is not only syncing which is CRITICAL, but to have functionality to set the frequency... continual on changes, specific days, daily, weekly, monthly, semi annual along with the time to do so. This could be extended to be a single upload to regular on the specified intervals. Given that a file size can be 200GB (full system back up for example) picking a time and date to upload such a file is important due to the time and bandwidth that this would take.
    This along with unlimited file size will differentiate…

  17. Add "Copy to folder" in Proton Web

    Currently there is "Move to folder" feature. But to duplicate a file or folder you have to re-upload the entire thing.

    Use case: Assume you have folder "MyDocuments" of 50 GB and you want a second backup of "MyDocumentsOLD" as a sort of version control just in case you break something in MyDocuments or corrupt a zipped file.

    Problems with existing feature: It takes a LONG time to upload 50GB to Proton Drive. An internal Copy feature would be zero time for the user.
    Also, you might have changed local files, that you don't want to upload to the backup,…

  18. Obsidian Sync

    Obsidian is a very popular, open source notes tool that manages everything directly on the file system leaving it open to many different syncing options.

    Pairing Obsidian with a Proton Drive syncing option would create an excellent privacy focused notes solution. Obsidian has a plugin ecosystem that allows for additional functionality and by creating a Proton Drive sync option that could be utilized on both mobile and desktop applications you would simultaneously address a market need while expanding the scope of the drive offering to something on the level of a free office suite.

  20. Shared Drive for the company/Family/Org

    These features of the drive are so important to have:

    *shared company Drive (at least for all user under the same account)
    *to have traceability of who has accessed the document or
    an option for it to be viewed only and not downloaded
    perhaps even only allowed to be edited live on the shared drive
    *Option for only print allowed.
