  1. File name conflict errors should be shown on web app

    Sometimes when creating a new file, especially Proton Doc file, the file name actually conflicts with Windows but Proton Drive web app doesn't tell.

    Only until I saw it in Proton Drive desktop, I knew about naming conflict.

    For example, I made a file name similar to this with slashes on Proton Drive web app: CPU/GPU Costs

    I know that clash only happens on Windows, not Linux (limits this slash only and not other chars), but maybe a small alert on web app should be nice.

  2. Support hard links in Drive for file access from multiple locations

    Similar to the concept of hard links on file systems (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_link) it would be useful to have files that can be accessed from multiple locations in Drive that all point to the same underlying storage. This makes it economical to organize information hierarchically where a file might be conveniently accessed from multiple locations.

  4. Exclude folders/files

    Thank you for the desktop application, it was necessary and I am very satisfied, excellent job. On the other hand, it would be very useful to have the ability to exclude files/folders, either by selecting them or using a regular expression. For example, excluding folders like 'node_modules'.

  5. Move photos from photos tab to other folders

    Hi, thanks for making Drive available for Linux. I use Fedora 39 KDE.
    I also use Photo backup via Android (Samsung S23)
    When I open all my files/photos in Linux web browesr, if I right click images, I can move to respective folders. As well as preview, move,rename, get link & delete.
    If I open the folder that uploads Photos, via Android, this option is not available. Only download, upload or delete.
    Perhaps this is a feature in the making?

  7. Give editor, permission to reshare

    Currently, the sharing options are viewer or editor, but the editor can't re-share the file, which is a problem for our process.
    We would need an additional right to allow a user to re-share the file/folder.

  9. Photos: OCR/Text scanning and photo text search

    In iCloud Photos, I find it very useful that in my massive photo library I can search for text appearing in my photos. This makes searching for old pictures of documents (like a business card from three years ago) very easy. Optical Character Recognition (OCR), from my understanding, is much less computationally intensive than image classification or facial recognition, so it would be easier to implement before those in Proton Drive to scan your library and easier to run via local models, and still add a lot in terms of search functionality.

  10. Proton Drive Integration with Android Default Storage

    I haven't yet found a way to set Proton Drive as a default storage location on Android within the "My Files" functionality which drives selectable save options for most file save actions. Obviously, Google Drive is available along with MS OneDrive, internal storage, SD storage and network storage. Having Proton Drive set here would make file management much easier on Android mobile.

  11. Proton Docs Download to .epub and change page colour

    There is an option to download to .pdf and .docx, having an option for e-readers would be helpdful.

    Even though it's been mentioned several times already, please have dark mode option for Proton Docs OR add the setting to change the page colour to black or another colour if someone wants.

  12. Download/export as PDF for Proton Spreadsheet

    I was super excited to hear Proton Sheets has launched and I’m keen to move over fully, but I’m missing one key feature: PDF export. Right now the only option is printing to PDF, which doesn’t offer enough control over formatting.

    Requested export options:
    • Show/hide gridlines
    • Margins
    • Page numbers
    • Scaling mode

    Use cases:
    • Reports
    • Printing
    • Simple invoices
    • Sending view-only versions
    • Archiving as PDF

  13. Allow unselect during Ctrl multiselect in Proton Sheets

    In other spreadsheet editors, such as Google Sheets, if you hold Ctrl and click on multiple cells to select them, you can click a selected cell again to unselect it. This is very helpful if you're multi selecting and accidentally select a cell, since it'll let you unselect it and still keep all your other cells selected.

    I tried this in Proton Sheets, and clicking on an already selected cell (in multiselect) does nothing.

    It's a very small feature, but a good quality of life by design. :)

    Thank you!

  15. Proton Docs: use pt instead of px, or offer choice

    I just tried Docs für the first time and the first thing that springs to my eye is the font size showing "px" as measurement. Being curious about this I downloaded a test doc as .docs and opened it in Word, which showed the correct size in points (e.g. 16px -> 12pt).
    While I am happy that the measurement unit is no mistake and is converted correctly, I still wonder why Proton chose to go with px instead of pt while still offering the same sizes as other text editors, just using px as unit.

    While the average user might…

  17. Add Spreadsheet‑Style Font Options to the Text Document Editor

    Proposal:
    When creating or editing a text document in Proton Drive, users currently have a limited set of typefaces compared with the richer font selection available in the new spreadsheet editor. To provide a more consistent and flexible writing experience across the suite, we propose extending the text‑document editor to include all the fonts that are now supported in the spreadsheet module (e.g., Calibri, Cambria, Arial Unicode, etc.).

    Benefits:

    Unified Design Language – Users can maintain visual consistency when embedding tables, charts, or excerpts copied from spreadsheets into documents.
    Improved Productivity – Reduces the need to switch between applications or manually adjust

  18. Name, Modified, & Size Filters Specific to Each Page, w/ Memory

    I often like to sort the contents of some folders by "name", and some by "modified" date.
    1. It would be great to have a global, and folder level memory, such that you can have some folders remain sorted by "modified" date, even if you apply "name globally".
    2. Secondly, for some reason, "modified" only seems to pertain to the end item its self, instead of the contents. For instance, if I have a 5 folders and within one of them I edit a Doc., the folder order will not change even though the contents of one of them has…

  19. Sanitize Shared Photos

    It would be nice to be able to optionally sanitize photos I share with someone. I do want my own photos to include the full metadata available, and sometimes I do want to share that with someone. But sometimes I want to share a photo with someone and I want to know they are not holding onto all the metadata my phone included with it. So it would be nice if sharing photos with someone also had an option to share a version of that photo that has the metadata sanitized.

    This seems to be a very important issue, as…
