change wallpaper on ProtonMail web app based on Photos on ProtonDrive
Hi
on Gmail, we can change wallpaper based on the photos on Google Drive and I hope ProtonMail can do the same thing with ProtonDrive. What do you think?1 vote -
File Symbolic Linking
One of my uses of ProtonDrive is to archive documents. For these, I wish to be able to archive them in multiple places; the same document has relevance to both the new house I purchased as well as to taxes. As such, i would like to have a link to the file appear in both of these places.
Currently, to support this I must upload the file twice into the two locations, potentially requiring me to download the file prior to re-uploading it.7 votes -
ProtonDrive Screenshot instant sharing feature (Like dropbox has now)
I think everyone who is using or have been used Dropbox for files sharing on macOS was happy and find it so useful and time saving feature - instant screenshot sharing option. For those who doesn't know I explain how it should work.
You make screenshot on the macOS (SHIFT+CMD+4) and your screenshot is instantly uploaded to ProtonDrive and the URL link copied to clipboard.
Asking for macOS Client firstly, but if possible to make it for Linux and Windows as well, why not to include it in the roadmap?

Customize Folders to backup structure
An option that doesn't really exists with the competitors, having the ability to choose a target folder for the backups with ProtonDrive.
Right now, if I have a folder "Photos" and I would love to only backup a few folders in it (ex: 2020, 2021, etc.) I have to select those but they will appear on Proton as 2020, 2021. If we could specific the destination folder I could have a "Photos" folder to which I'd select to backup 2020, 2021 in.
Current:
2020 -> 2020
2021 -> 2021Future:
2020 -> Photos\2020
2021 -> Photos\2021Giving more flexibility to…

Upload from a hyperlink
Ideally we would have remote upload but then I guess that's not possible due to E2EE. So, instead give a web UI feature, where instead of having to manually download and then upload, the Web UI itself downloads the file onto storage and encrypts and uploads it.

Allow the android client to access cameras connected via USB directly.
Right now, if you want to back up photos from a camera to your ProtonDrive account via a tablet, the most straightforward way is to import the images to the tablet, and then open the ProtonDrive app and upload them. I propose skipping the middle step and simply upload them from the camera directly to ProtonDrive.
- If you have an inexpensive tablet, the number of photos to backup might easily exceed the space available on the tablet.
- Such backups might be crucial for photojournalists using professional cameras in ares where security forces sometime confiscate cameras. The alternative is hiding the…

Web PDF Viewer Improvements
Here are possible improvements to the pdf viewer (web):
- Remove encryption
- Convert to PDF/A
- Convert to Linearized PDFI think the first one is the most useful for people. And once this is implemented, the other two could be easy to implement (given the toolchain required for the the first one).

Shared folders linked to Proton account (not just public links)
Privacy and security are at the core of Proton's mission. Sharing folders through Proton Drive should be no different. A public URL for sharing stops short of privacy and security. A model that upholds privacy and security would be an invite model. Invite a specific person to the folder, if they do not have a Proton account, they can create one. They use this login to access files in the shared folder.
A public URL has zero traceability to who is accessing the data. An invitation to a specific person would allow for traceability of the files in the folder…

Activiy overview on Web UI as in the Windows app
The Drive Web UI should show the Activity (document up/downloads etc.) just as in the Windows application. This is generally handy, but even more if you run crude sync setups and to be able to check status without being "on that machine".

Share upload folder link
Share folders with the option to allow upload of files. This is an essencial feature to allow secure file transfer. Bonus points if notifications for uploaded files are present from day1.
This is especially important for companies, where receiving large files is sometimes troublesome.
Myself and my family currently use a (payed) competitor that provides this feature, and I can assure you I will not be adopting proton drive unless an equivalent feature is available.
PS: All the said.. I'm not sure posting ideas on this platform is of any use, provided proton has not given any feedback to any…

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.

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…

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).

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.
