Manual sync on Windows
It seems that Proton Drive only syncs documents when the last change value changes, not when the file actually changed, which creates a problem. Windows has this annoying quirk where, if the file size didn't change, it won't update the meta data for the time the document was last saved, so even if you saved 10 times in 10 minutes, if the changes you made summed up to the same file size, Explorer will continue to show the change time as being 10 minutes prior, and the updated file with not be automatically synced. To bypass that you should add…

save as conversions that do not need download
Proton docs can be downloaded in various formats. But you cannot save to the drive in those formats, you have to download and then upload, risking leaving the document on an insecure drive!
Add a "save as" feature which works like download, but saves to the drive.

Knowledge Management System
Suggestion: A shareable knowledge management system
As a research student, I find that there are not many knowledgement system that can be used with good privacy, unless doing self-hosting, which is difficult for people without a lot of IT knowledge.

Option to make drive folders (containing photos) visible in the photos album section
While there are many similar tickets regarding this topic, i just wanted to add my specific request, ignoring the often posed usefulness question of treating the photos section completely separate to the overall file section.
With this current structure in place, I would love to have the option to mark whole folders in "files", making them visible in the Photos Album section. In my case, I store my Photo backups in Proton Drive, organized by a certain folder structure. (mostly organized by year/location/event) While i don't want to clutter my photo album section with all these photos stored in Files,…

Plaintext and source files editing
It would be great to be able view and edit plaintext or source files.
- This one feature would allow to work with dozens of file formats in different programming/scripting languages, config files etc.
- It would allow to create quick txt/md notes, where the full blown rich text editor is not required/desired.
- It would allow to use Markdown note vaults, like those used by Obsidian.
- It would allow to use tabular data in CSV format, which might cover some use cases for the (currently missing) spreadsheets feature.
In the future, it would be also nice to have some syntax highlighting for…

Android/Photos: Store separately separate synced folders. Don't intermix Photos with Screenshots.
I miss folders under Photos section. And it would be fine to make their names match folders I selected for sync on phone.
Otherwise my photos and screenshots are all in single Photos folder. And they are too many to sort them manually between "Albums".

Show current folder when moving files
When I select the title of my current document > move to folder, a popup showing my drive folder structure appears. I'd like to see the current file path on top of the list.
This is useful because I can't accidentally move to a wrong folder or fail to recognize that the file I'm working on is already in there.

Create specific folder icons on Windows that reflect the synchronisation status of a folder. (Proton Drive Client)
On Windows, when folders are synced using the Proton Drive Client, the folder icon remains the Windows default one. It would be good to have different icons that reflect the status of the synchronisation operations.
For example, on top of the original icon
- Small green mark for "synced"
- Small blue mark for "On-going synchronisation"
- Small red mark for "Synchronisation is not active" (which could alert the user of a problem)3 votes -
Drag Select in Proton Drive
Could we please have a drag select function within Proton Drive on the Web App?
So if we select outside a file and drag, it creates a box that selects all files contained within that box.
Thank you!

Add Japanese language support to the Windows desktop app
The Proton Drive web version supports Japanese, but the Windows desktop app (v3.0.1) has no language setting and stays in English. Unlike the web version, it can't be translated with a browser either.
As a paying subscriber, I'd love a Japanese option in the desktop app. With privacy awareness growing fast in Japan, proper Japanese support would help Proton reach more users here.2 votes -
Connecting Proton Drive and OnlyOffice
I want to be able to connect my OnlyOffice to Proton Drive. Proton Drive is missing in the connect-options, where it is possible to connect to Nextcloud, Dropbox, OneDrive and even kDrive.
Are you working on this feature?

Include Postal/Zip code as native entry for cards - Improved Autofill
Proton Pass credit card entries should natively support and autofill a postal code/zip code field in the card schema (along with name, card number, expiration date, etc.).
Reason: many sites require a postal code entry to be included along with #, name, code, etc. to help in security/billing verification.
Benefit: more seamless credit card autofill for users without having to enter the postal code manually or hope for a second step identity autofill.

Native Home Assistant Integration for Proton Drive Backups
Hello Proton Team,
I am writing to strongly request a native integration or official API support for Home Assistant backups to Proton Drive.
The Context: Many privacy-conscious users run Home Assistant (the leading open-source home automation platform) on devices like Raspberry ***. For these users, securing local backups in a zero-knowledge cloud is a critical security requirement. Currently, Proton Drive is the ideal target due to its end-to-end encryption, but it is inaccessible for automated backups.
The Problem:
…No Public API: Unlike Google Drive or Dropbox, Proton Drive lacks a public, documented API that allows third-party applications to authenticate and3 votes -
Travel privacy feature
A hide/un-hide feature to disconnect/hide/remove all traces of my Proton Drive files (or certain files) when I enter certain countries. Uninstalling the app on iOS still leaves a copy, if I am correct. Installing the app and re-downloading all my offline files everytime is very time consuming and tedious. Or simply allowing me to not show certain offline files and folders (I believe Dropbox features that) would be amazing. Or perhaps a dashboard that allows me to select everything on Proton I want to hide when I travel would be amazing.

Home Assistant Backups → Proton Drive
Home Assistant is probably the most widely used home automation system, with millions of users worldwide.
Make Proton Drive available on the following page: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/#backup
This would not only be very helpful for a large number of users, but also great advertising for Proton.7 votes -

Aliases, Symbolic Links and Tags in Proton Drive for macOS
please add support for Aliases, Symbolic Links and Tags in Proton Drive for macOS;
as of now, aliases to folders when copied to proton are converted to empty and useless "blank" files,
instead aliases to files (.doc, .pdf, ...) are initially actually aliases but they don't have the alias icon (with the lower left arrow) ...the problem is that they work only until the original is modified and saved (in the same location), then they become useless too!another thing: files in proton drive loose the finder tags (which are a crucial part of the workflow of many mac users,…

Locking files / Hiding files on Proton Drive
I would like Proton Drive to support client-side locked folders that require a secondary authentication step (such as password re-entry, hardware key confirmation, or biometric verification) before file is decrypted when signed in.
This would prevent opportunities for opportunistic individuals to get access to the most sensitive files someone has when their proton drive session is opened.

Add Commenter role to allow commenting without editing
In addition to Editor and Viewer, it would be great to have a Commenter role available at the Doc and folder level, as in Google Drive.
I'd love to allow collaborators to comment on, but not edit, any Proton Doc in a shared folder.
