Allow or enable searching photos in Drive by date of capture. For example, if I search "12 June 2023" or "2023-06-12" show me all the photos in my Drive taken on that day. And similar to search by week or month

Allow to download all data from photo and drive
Recently I had to remove an address and all of its associated data, the issue is that downloading all of my data was painful, as a lot of the downloads took, a while, and the download often failed. Forcing me to manually select smaller folders, and download those, then merge them.
As for photos scrolling through all photos and selecting each month, it appears as if there is no "select range" key binding.
It would be useful in general to have a "take out" feature for both drive and photos.

Create folder shortcuts (so you don't have to make a duplicate)
In Google Drive, you can "Add Shortcut" of an existing folder so you don't have to duplicate folder content (you can enter the same folder from multiple locations). Similarly, macOS allows you to "Make Alias" of a folder, & in Linux you can create symlinks of folders. Would be great to be able to do this in Proton Drive!

File Search
Filename based Search functionality within Proton Drive...
I don't necessarily mean searching for File-Content, this is difficult to achieve in a fully encrypted setting (albeit not impossible, if the indexing tool would run local or in a sand-boxed mode and the actual index database would be stored as a file on the actual encrypted proton drive account.... )
But rather just a search for file name (even partial names etc...)

Memories feature
One part of Google Photos that I will miss is the "Memories" feature. Not the creepy cloud-based processing, but just the notification to scroll through some of my old photos.
It doesn't have to be fancy, and you can play the same cheesy jingle each time!
(Unless there's a workaround and I can use another app that can safely read local photos while Proton Drive backs them up securely?)

Open file with a third party app on mobile
Need to just being able to open a file with a third party application.
Tap on menu file, choosing "Open with ..." , selecting appropriate application. That's all.
Now, if I want to open eg. a passwords file I need to download it, opening a file manager app, selecting folder and opening downloaded file.

Save to external drive
Saving to external drive.
I have a mac mini with 256GB on it. After installing all the apps and documents that I use, more than half of it is used. Not to mention the caches, temp, backup files, etc.
I use Box and other online storage and they have options to where to store their files so I use an external drive to store my files synced with the online storage apps that I used.
I would love to see Proton Drive to have the option to store the files.

Add synced computers tab on iOS
However when I open the iOS app I only see the existing My Files. On my windows computer I've synced, this is nowhere to be found. I don't want to reupload my already synced files into the My Files directory.

zip/tar archive support on the cloud (server side)
I have an archive of my university work, which is unfortunately comprised of a lot of files (over 4000, 3.5GB in total). Uploading those files in their current form takes forever using the browser.
I could, theoretically, pack all of the files in .zip archives and upload those, but using that method would not allow me to view or change the files on the drive. I would always have to download them first.
My idea is to add .zip/.tar archive support on the server side, so one can group the files together in archives, upload them to ProtonDrive and unpack…

Additional columns/fields
In addition to the leftmost column showing filename, I'd like to see the option to add user-selected additional columns (and sort or filter by them). examples: file size (or sum recursive folder size), file type, count of files in folder, etc.

SHARED FOLDERS : Subfolders and contents need download counters and a share indicators.
If you share a folder only the folder pointed to by the URL link records if it is shared and how many downloads have occurred using that link.
Within the shared folder the "details" menu option of each subfolder and file indicate they are not shared and doesn't record if they have been downloaded.
All shared objects need to indicate they are being shared and how many downloads have occurred. Currently the management of shared objects is very limited if you don't have this information.

Website backup functionality
Website backup possibility.
I work as a Wordpress developer and would love to see Proton Drive as a backup possibility for my customers. Most of the major Backup Plug-ins like Duplicator Pro or Updraft Plus have direct connection to Google Drive, and Dropbox. It would be great to have Proton Drive as an option. Im sure this would bring more paying customers to your great services.5 votes -
Sort files based on metadata in the file (ID3 tag, Exif, etc)
it would be nice to be able add columns to the list view that index data from within the file.
For photos/images, EXIF fields like date/time taken, location, camera make/model etc.
For music, standard id3 tags.5 votes -

resync to folder
The ability to sync to an existing folder.
If I have to reinstall Proton Drive, such as when I reinstall Windows, I cant have it point to the existing folder I use for Syncing Proton Drive. I have to create a new folder, which just creates a mess and a duplication of data (and the fear of losing something). I should just be able to point to the existing sync folder, and continue on.

Containers with own password and 2fa
Allow the creation of separate proton drive containers where you can setup individual security (passwords and 2fa) for each container. So when you go to proton drive not all containers are always mounted. This has the advantage that if your computer is breached or infected not all your drive containers and files within are directly accessible.

Use QR code to share files/folders
QR codes for sharing Proton Drive files/folder URLs. It would make sharing links from a desktop to phone MUCH easier. Not to mention safer. I'm using an online QR code generator. God only knows what they are doing with that data.
