Speed up search indexing in Drive on Linux Mozilla
I have been trying for 1 month to have my search feature in the web interface of drive index my files. This so they will be searchable. There are over 170K files there. The first 100K seem to be done is a jiffy, but after that it is like 1000 files every 10 minutes. My laptop is never connected to the internet for more as 3 or 4 hours and the index seems to crash after several disconnects. So after a month of trying I still have not been able to get a searchable index. Isn't it possible to speed…

Saving search index
I know files and photos indexing may be technically difficult because everything is encrypted, but at least it should be optional to create and persist and index to not wait every time to reconstitutes it, when it's needed to search for files and photos. This index may be incrementally updated at the next access.
It should also be useful to have an index updated in background, maybe by the mobile or desktop apps.14 votes -

Sync Symlinks in Proton Drive on Unix/MacOS
Currently it seems that if a symlink is created in the Local Proton Drive Folder, it is ignored. It would be useful if the symlinks were followed and synced. This would allow to sync files anywhere on the filesystem to Proton Drive by symlinking from the file to the local Proton Drive Folder.
Use cases include syncing files that need to be in a certain locations, like local configurations (bashrc and similar) without having to copy them each time they change.

Make Photos in "My Files" visible in the Photos section and vice versa
Make Photos in "My Files" visible in the Photos section and vice versa.
Managing Photos as a subset of Files is a fairly standard use case if you want to Synch with Desktop (which is critical to me).13 votes -
Dont upload edited Photos from IOS as duplicate
Currently, if i edit a Photo on IOS it uploads to Proton 2 Photos (one original and one Edited). This should not be or be optimised (maybe ask if i want to synch the original or edited Photo). Since i personally edit a lot of Photos, i have lots of Duplicates (and therefore a lot of Space used) in ProtonDrive

Proton Sheets Standard Formatting Keyboard Shortcuts
Currently Standard Formatting shortcuts like Ctrl+B for Bold, Ctrl+I for Italic, Ctrl+U for Underline, etc. are not implemented in Proton Sheets. These are very basic things that the lack of significantly increases the time it takes for perform basic tasks.

Delay photo backup
I often take multiple photos or I take throw-away photos because my chat apps builtin camera is garbage.
They are then instantly backed up, which means I have to delete them from local storage and then from the Drive.It would be really useful if you could set a delay before a photo is uploaded, or if you could set a specific time at which photos are uploaded.

Format currency cells according to the currency symbol entered
If I enter "£3.00" in a cell, Proton Sheets will turn it into $3. It changes the currency but also removes the decimal places I entered. This feels kind of broken. I don't see how or why this would be expected or acceptable behaviour.

esign, digital signatures
Shooting for the moon here, but if Proton Drive could include some sort of electronic signature feature to send documents to folks by email (within or outside Proton) to request a legally valid signature (think DocuSign), that would take care of a big need for professionals using Proton for their practice.

It would be very useful if we could sort them alphabetically.41 votes -

Docs page color
I know similar things have been suggested before, but if a dark mode is ever added I'd much rather it affect the UI and not the page itself; I'd like to be able to choose the page color and font color myself.
This is, assuming of course, a non-pageless format is added.

Add to iOS share via menu
I use a scan to PDF app daily. After I scan a document, I want to upload to Proton Drive but the option to select Proton Drive is not available. I have to go through the Files app, which has Proton Drive setup within. I’d like to add directly to Proton Drive!

Add photos to an album by going to a different album and adding it from there
When I go to add photos to an album, it brings be to all of my photos. It would be helpful if I had the option to navigate to existing albums to add photos from there. Or, if in the album options, to be able to select and "move to" or "copy to" a different album.

Team drive
We are using proton drive for work. Both for documents, but it also works as a kind of sharepoint/team drive. It would be really helpful to have a better teams function for the drive. At the moment we have a shared folder, but it is still only the "owner" that fully controls it. Furthermore, since I am not the owner, I am not able to access the folder through proton drive cloud on my computer. I can only access my own folders, not those shared with me. Since I am working on my personal computer, and not allowed to store…

Currently there is no option to correctly display Japanese characters in sheets. It defaults to Chinese characters and there is no option to change the typeface into a Japanese one.

Allow syncing to same folder location for multiple windows/macOs/linux user accounts
I am working with two different user accounts on my windows machine. One for work, one for personal stuff. I want to use the Proton Drive for both accounts. Unfortunately when I tried to set up Proton Drive on the second account to sync with the same folder I got an error message instead:
"Invalid sync folder: The folder must be empty before setting up sync"It wouldn't make any sense to choose a different folder and have everything twice on my computer

Use AI to auto identify and auto organize photos
Use AI to auto tag, auto name and/or auto organize photos. For example allow me to tag or identify each of my family members and then have an auto name feature to rename the photos to include their names or tags. Ex Sally Suzie John in Rome Italy trip (1 2 3 etc)
