Improved Trash UX (Photo Previews & Bulk Selection)
Photo previews in trash: The deleted photos in trash appear like a file directory with a very small thumbnail that loads very slowly. And i can't preview them on web. I would like to see the trash folder look exactly like a media gallery and display large clear thumbnails of every photo or video that's deleted and that can be opened.
(Google photos has these features)
Multiple selection: On the mobile app you have to delete each item individually from the trash to erase it permanently which makes deleting multiple photos very time consuming. Bulk selection of photos in trash…

Smarter styles for docs, ability to edit them
I really appreciate the ability to change the properties of different heading styles in Docs, the way google docs does it is just fine, the "update to fit selection."

Show upload/download status in tray icon tooltip and left click option
When hovering over the tray icon, it would be really useful to show status information like whether something is uploading or downloading, current speed, how much is completed, and how much is left.
There’s a lot of useful info that could live there instead of the tray icon being mostly passive. This would make background activity much more transparent and actually justify having the tray icon at all.
It would be great if the tray icon had a meaningful left-click action.
For example, in OneDrive, left-click opens a small window showing recent uploads and current sync activity. In Proton apps,…

I'd like comment/tag functions for files/photos/videos on the drive
I'd like more options for personalization and organization of files. I'd like to add hyperlinks to sources. Tags for general ideas, like "cats" without needing that to be in the title of the file.

Link sharing: Add "Request Access" Approval for Shared Links (Google Drive-style)
Please add a "Request Access / Manual Approval" option for shared links in Proton Drive.
How it should work:
When someone clicks a shared link, they cannot immediately access the file / folder.
Instead, they see a button like "Request Access."
The owner receives a notification and can approve or deny each request, tied to the requester's email address.Why this matters:
Prevents link leaks. Even if the URL is forwarded, only approved people get access.
Gives owners more granular control, without relying only on passwords or expiry dates.
Matches a feature users are already familiar with from Google Drive,…6 votes -
Add a text file reader
Adding a text file reader/opener to drive would allow users to open text files directly in drive, or add proton docs to drive.

Simplify folder path structure in Drive on Windows
On Windows, Proton Drive creates a very strange folder structure:
C:\Users\username\Proton Drive\username\My files\
There are empty folders in the path for no reason. Why not just store everything directly inside Proton Drive? It feels unnecessary and cluttered.
Besides being visually messy (it literally bothers my OCD), it also makes accessing files slower and annoying because I have to click through multiple empty folders just to get to my stuff.

Make iOS/iPadOS Drive app more powerful
The iOS/iPadOS Drive app is fine, but I find myself often gravitating towards the web app as it’s more power user friendly. I can quickly jump to any folder by expanding the folder tree, which doesn’t exist at all on mobile. Uploads are much more reliable whereas they often fail in the mobile app.

data validation list for spreadsheets
A data validation LIST option would be welcomed for spreadsheets. Each cell in the column would have a drop down menu with the available options of the predefined list.

.XLSX files - duplicate files / read-only
When opening an existing .XLSX file within Proton Drive, this creates a (1).xlsx file. Ideally it would open and update the existing file, otherwise it will continue to generate multiple duplicate files (1).xlsx, (2).xlsx, etc. Alternatively, an option to open as a read-only version here (for original uploader) might be helpful.

Live Picture Download
Support the ability to download live photos that are stored in proton drive as live photos. Currently you can save live photos and see them live in proton drive. But if you download the live photo to your phone it doesn't save as a live photo.

Photos
I'd like the Photos tab in the app to work like OneDrive's, with every photo in the cloud appearing in that tab without having to do anything, not just the ones uploaded directly as they are now.
I'd also like the automatically uploaded image files to be in a folder in the cloud where I could locate them and move them to the folder I want to organize them in, but with them still appearing in the Photos tab even if I move them, and on all devices.

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…

The ability to preview content inside archives. (zip, rar, etc.)
As the title says. I find this feature to be of great use to those of us who clutter lots of files inside archives. I find it a bit annoying that proton drive doesn't support said feature when competitors like Mega and Dropbox do.

Support .tiff (Tagged Image File Format) preview in Photos
Currently there is no support for .tiff files in Proton Drive photos, adding a support for that seems important because it is very popular amongst graphic artists, the publishing industry, and photographers.

Intermittently, on iPhone when you close the keyboard (DONE button), the keyboard closes but the document zooms way in.
