  1. Preview and open .odt OpenDocument Text files

    Related to being able to export Proton Docs as .odt files (https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932839-proton-drive/suggestions/48607370-proton-docs-download-to-odt-feature), it should be possible to preview and open .odt OpenDocument Text files in Proton Docs. Many people choose OpenDocument files as a free and open source alternative to MS Word and Google Docs files. It’s the default file format in LibreOffice, Nextcloud Office, and Collabora. It’s the option that people turn to when they’re tired of being overcharged by Microsoft to open or write a document. It’d be invaluable to have support in Proton Docs for these files.

  2. Location settings for Sheets (date, numbers, currency...)

    It would be great to be able to define the location settings in each Proton Sheet file with a list of countries so that the date, number, currency, etc. formats correspond to the selected country.

  3. Proton Docs Improvements

    The ability to have a non-pageless design, a ruler, line spacing so it can be used for academic papers (think double space, 1.15, 1.5, etc...), ability to open PDFs in Proton Docs, word count, and the paint format feature. Also, please add the ability for the mobile versions of Proton Drive to edit Proton Docs in the app or a separate Proton Doc app. I love Proton Docs though it's amazing and the UI is beautiful.

  4. Rsync compatibility

    Enable rsync compatibility with Proton Drive to allow Linux users to sync files and directories for cloud backup. This should be a core feature of any cloud storage solution and makes Proton an unappealing ecosystem on Linux.

  5. Create dedicated photo app

    I know that the current plan is to fully integrate the photos feature into the Proton Drive app.
    However, I think it would be more logical to have a dedicated app for photos and one for documents in general. With combined apps, I fear that the app either gets overloaded or features will be missing because it would get too crowded otherwise. The photos app also needs wayy better performance than the current app (at least on android, the photos feature is very slow and misses a lot of crucial features, like face detection, editing or a map to show…

  6. Add Shared Folders to Proton Drive Sync

    My wife and I fully utilize the Proton sharing features across the platform. We share files in Proton Drive, but the biggest gap for us is not being able to sync shared folders/files (using Proton Drive Sync for MacOS). The only way we can access the files that have been shared is through the Proton Drive web application.

    Why is it so important that we be able to sync using MacOS?

    Because we heavily utilize the MacOS Spotlight feature to find specific files that contain specific search terms in the body of the document. For reasons we understand, this feature…

  8. Speed Improvements For Photos

    The Photos Feature is pretty cool. I don't do much with my photos, and I'm so close to just switching to it as my primary photos app (Just use it as a backup right now). However, the very slow speed of the photos loading when scrolling through is just unusable. I don't know what exactly causes it to be slow, but my guess would be the encryption. Perhaps use a faster standard like Ente does. Thank you for your time!

  9. Proton Docs: Formatting Limitations

    Proton Docs lacks advanced formatting capabilities compared to Google Docs, making it unsuitable for professional documents. Essential features are missing: headers/footers, multi-column layouts, footnotes, table of contents, watermarks, and customizable paragraph styles. This forces users to choose between privacy and professional presentation quality. Proton should prioritize implementing these formatting tools to become a viable alternative for privacy-conscious professionals.

  11. Lifetime Storage

    Why not add lifetime storage purchases like PCloud?

    Please make lifetime storage space available for purchase, starting from 100 GB to 2 TB, like PCloud.

  12. Synology NAS Cloud Sync

    I miss the capability to connect my ProtonDrive with my Synology NAS by CloudSync or Hyper Backup. This would be one of the last disadvantages compared to conventional cloud providers

  13. Pivot Table and Pivot Chart support in Proton Sheets

    Proton Sheets should include support for Pivot Tables and Pivot Charts to help summarise large datasets. It should be easy to modify the data source, filters, columns, rows, data points and their underlying calculations, etc. Make them as powerful as they are in Excel and easy to style or format with well designed and attractive default themes (maybe include a Proton theme as well!).

  14. Page Breaks!

    This has been posted before, but always bundled with other features, and I really want to stress how important this SINGLE change is for many many novelists, academics, etc.

    Page breaks are crucial to a huge number of people who use word processors/electronic documents, as is the ability to force a page break (for a new chapter, etc.)

    Right now I have to keep doing print previews just to see what page things are on, and there is absolutely no way to control where a page break occurs. I will be forced to keep using Gdocs for my novels until…

  15. 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

  17. Photo album shared link support

    Please add shared link support to Photo albums so albums can be shared with non-Proton users.

    Drive already offers shared link support for files, folders and individual photos, but shared links for albums is a feature gap.

  18. Sort-option for folders and albums

    Organizing files and photo's is crucial for data-storage.
    It doesn't feel very complex to implement too.
    So please make it high(er) priority to be able to sort folders and albums in Proton Drive (windows/ios).

  20. Proton Docs download to .odt feature

    Besides .docx, many of us who use Linux and free/open-source software like LibreOffice Writer sometimes use .odt instead. It would be wonderful to have a direct export/download to .odt within Proton Docs
