Add photo to album without opening the album
Currently, when I select photos and then add them to an album, this album is opened. So, when I want to add further photos to the album, I need to go all the way back to the photo overview and find the place I left. It would be great if there was an option to add photos to an album while staying exactly where one is in the photo library.

Headers, Footers, and Page Number Fields in Docs
The ability to add headers, footers, and page numbers is important for preparing documents to submit to agents, publishers, contests, etc. or as school assignments. Please include the option to make the header and footer the same across all pages, and another option to make them the same across all pages except the first. The page number field needs to be separate, since each page number will be different. Thanks.

Notifications for Changes to Shared Folder
I would love to have notifications (email preferably) when someone outside my organization accesses a shared folder - either to upload files, change/edit files, or download files. It is useful when i am waiting for a client to upload files and I don't have to keep checking the folder.

non‑E2EE Linux client for Proton Drive
Your blog says a Linux client is in progress, but Proton Drive cannot be taken seriously as a core product until it exists. Linux is a first‑class environment for many of your most technical users, and the absence of a native client is a fundamental gap.
If E2EE is the bottleneck, ship a non‑E2EE Linux client now with explicit warnings. Engineers know how to encrypt locally — Cryptomator, rclone, and similar tools already solve this. pCloud has used this model for years. Delivering a functional client early gives you performance data, crash reports, and real‑world usage patterns instead of waiting…

Collect and store more data for photos and video.
Please collect and store more data with photos and videos. Be sure to keep the original date and not just the upload/edited date. Keep meta data like camera type, camera settings, location, and any tags or descriptions.

Allow editing of photos
It would be very useful to be able to edit photos, such as cropping, rotating, and adding filters. It doesn't necessarily need to have very advanced features, just the basics.

Direct Download Link
When sharing a file, the recipient has to open a web page, find the Download button and hit the button.
I understand that this process is also a free ad for your services but it would be very helpful for some people to share a direct download link: when clicking on the link the file is automatically downloaded.This can be done with other cloud providers and it's really helpful, especially with elderly persons.

Allow Renaming Photos in the Photos Section
Please allow users to rename photos directly from the Photos section in Proton Drive. Currently, renaming is only possible from the Files section, which is inconvenient.

Web based Drive Search
Search is not available because the contents need to be indexed or something. Please review this. It's day 5 of me waiting for all my 900 gb to be uploaded and I can't perform a single search. Please contact me for advise on these basic things you are missing. I am regretting switching from Mega already. Please.

View videos on mobile
Currently, to view videos stored on proton drive, you have to download them. An option is to allow apps like vlc, the ability to view/stream these videos, instead of having to download them.

photo album sharing
Share photo albums via link with non-Proton users.
This feature exists for Proton drive files, which is why I still need to use proton folders to share photos with friends who are not on Proton Drive.
The whole idea of photo albums is to share them. That this feature is omitted is a deal-breaker for my adoption of photo albums.

Photo backup available in Windows explorer
Photos that are backed up to the cloud should be available as all the other folders in windows explorer. I want to organize them and in the web browser interface, you can't drag and drop. Using the web interface make large amounts to organizing into folders very time consuming. Please make the photo folder available in windows explorer so the images can be moves easily.

Archive photos to keep them out of the main timeline
This feature would make it possible to remove less relevant photos from the main timeline without actually deleting them. Archived photos should still be able to be in one or more albums.

Support for GNOME/KDE online accounts
Using the GNOME or KDE online accounts applet you should be able to use Proton services like Proton Mail, Proton Drive, Proton Pass etc. by logging in to your Proton account. Nextcloud and Google have support for both, and Microsoft is supported in GNOME enviroments. Posted this in the Drive section since currently only the Drive app and various other early access apps cannot run natively in Linux.
