Photo deduplication feature
The Drive does not mind importing photos multiple times, even though being advertised differently.
Examples:
- exact same name, created date, but different last modified date => 2 copies.
- modified photo on iPhone => 2 copies (not 1 photo with two different states)
- importing the same photo from multiple sources => multiple copiesThis is driving me crazy, as I want to have a single version of a single photo and don't want to waste my time merging etc. The switch to Proton was supposed to be simple.

Search function in Proton Calendar
I switched from Google Calendar to Proton Calendar and I love the additional functions, but I really miss the search function.
It helps a lot if you have to search for specific events in the past.(If I just don't see it, please make it easier to use)

Deploy the new Euro Office suite into Drive
With the launch yesterday of Euro Office (a new fork of OnlyOffice) can it be deployed into Proton Drive to give an alternative to Proton Docs. The current Docs and Sheets deployment is severely lacking in features, uses a proprietry file format which goes against protons ethos, and renders document editing impossible outside of the proton ecosystem, going as far as to force another proprietry file form (docx/xlsx) if you download it without even pausing to think about letting us use open formats.
Dev work would be minimal, as the system is already built and available for free: https://github.com/Euro-Office

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…

Find and replace
I was trying Proton docs for an university's homework since a mate and I realized it wasn't possible to "find and replace all" on Proton docs. We had to download and work local

Photo albums needs love!
Photo albums currently have exactly zero options for sort customization. Please help!
The ability to sort by name or date ascending or descending would be greatly appreciated.
And album groups would be next level awesomeness. For example you could make a group called "Cats", but in it have different albums for each of your cats.
Keep up the amazing work!121 votes -
Automatic file backup on Android (for documents/files)
Photos already auto-backup, but documents and other files still need to be uploaded manually. Please add automatic file backup for Android — let users select folders to sync in the background.
This matters. If someone loses their phone, gets robbed, or the device breaks, those files are gone. Manual upload means people forget or delay, and by the time something happens, it's too late.
Would really help make Proton Drive a true Google Drive replacement.

Show folder size.
It is basically useless when you are informed that your drive is reaching its limit and you can not ascertain which folder/s are using the most 'space'.
The only way to find out what's "hogging up" drive space is to have to individually drill down into each folder and see what size the files are.
Extremely and utterly frustrating, especially when you have tens/hundreds of folders, and in this day and age of 'internet functionality' it's like stepping back into the 80's as the only way to find out what's using up space is to check each file.
Frustrated.

Preserve Photo Metadata
When syncing photos, it would be better if it also created the folders being synced to save having to create them in Proton Drive and move your pictures to it. Also, make it a true sync so if I delete photos from my device, it also removes them from PD.
More importantly. Please preserve the metadata of the original file. It's really important to have your photos with the time and date stamp of when they were taken, and also the location information. This is crucial when restoring your files.

View or Filter UNCATEGORISED Photos (those NOT in any Album).
For those of us who like to sort all of our photos into albums as we go along and may periodically wonder "Which ones haven't I filed anywhere yet?", I propose adding a view or filter of UNCATEGORISED Photos -- meaning, those not assigned to any album.
This could be a filter on the main Photos tab -- or it could be implemented as a "magic" Album that cannot be edited by the user and automatically provides a view of all of the photos that do not exist elsewhere.
