1. Voice notes into Proton Drive

   A "Voice Notes" feature in Proton Drive would be nice. You would record your voice notes, sound recording and Drive encrypts it and store the file in Drive cloud automatically.

2. Colab

   I observed that some universities across Europe relays only on Google Colab to make, test, synch, share code during their classrooms.

   The idea is to have some kind of interface, similar to what google does, to be able to develop code, test it's functionalities, store sources at drive (text based files), and even better if Lumo can help developing code as Gemini does.

   Having such a tool can be a good argument to induce EU agents to switch from their current US based big techs providers, to a secure development platform, thinking in necessary privacy for research and investigation topics.

   For regular users or regular students, can be a good to experiment with Python for instance, not relying on Google for such a proposes.

3. Allow modifying Version History Per File

   I'm on MacOS using ProtonDrive - because I cannot sync/backup my Documents folder with OneDrive, I wrote a script that zips my Document folder and uploads it to ProtonDrive. It works really well as a backup solution, except I was seeing me use up all my storage. After a bit of investigating, I realized that it was saving every version of the zipped backup (each backup is ~30G, so it was filling up quickly).

   While I would like to keep the 180 day version history on all my files, I would like it to be possible to change this setting on each file. In the example above, I probably wouldn't want to hold onto a backup longer than 30 days.

4. Notes and Memo related

   I think there should be a feature for text notes and memo in drive or seperate app. It would be very helpful, if it existed.

5. Support creating nested folders with path syntax (mkdir -p style)

   When creating a new folder, allow users to enter a path with forward slashes to create the entire folder hierarchy in one step.

   Example:
   Entering Photos/Events/2021_09_Wedding/Aperitif in the "Folder name" input would create all four nested folders at once.

   Expected behavior:
   - Folders that already exist are silently skipped
   - Only missing folders in the path are created
   - Works like mkdir -p on Linux/macOS

   Why this helps:
   Currently, organizing files into a deep folder structure requires creating each folder individually, navigating into it, then creating the next one. This is tedious when setting up a new hierarchy or importing files that need proper organization. A simple path syntax would save significant time and clicks.

6. Proton Docs: Convert footnotes from docx to Docs files and show comments on download

   1. I work in Ulysses (Markdown) and export to Word, store the docx files in Proton Drive and share with a collaborator, and we work together in Docs. While passages marked with the "::" code show as highlighted in docs, footnotes created in markdown, which show up in docx, do not show up in Docs files.

   2. There seems to be no way to download a docs file in any format and have the comments made in the docs file show up in the downloaded file. If there is, please let me know. If not, please consider adding this feature. Thanks.
      Please consider adding code to allow footnotes to transfer from docx to docs files. Thanks.

7. See and scroll all the Photos in my Drive

   I'd like to switch from Dropbox to use a European and privacy-oriented software and I'm using since some years Protonmail and Vpn.
   I tried your Proton Drive app and website, but both systems are not showing in the photos page all the pictures that I've saved in my cloud space. It's a bit of a pity, because sometimes I think that it's just simple and nice to look for a picture or image scrolling in a page in chronologically order, like Dropbox does.
   It would be nice if Proton Drive would work like that.

8. A WeTransfer download directly from Proton Drive

   Right click on a file or folder and send a download link. No need to create a shared folder, no need for the receiver to create a Proton account; just a download like WeTransfer or Dropbox Transfer.

10. Local cache

    Other cloud providers have a local cache that you can set the size of, that just retains your most recently opened files so you're not having to re-download them every time you open them. I realise you can set specific files or folders to be available locally, but it's a pain having to do this when you have lots of different files (drawing files is what I'm thinking of) with large (GB) attachments. With a cache they're just available while actively working with them, and then they eventually get pushed back off the local drive when you're no longer opening them again.

12. Allow custom domains and branding in file sharing URLs with Proton Drive

    Hi there,

    when I share a folder with a public link, I only get an URL with the following structure:
    https://drive.proton.me/urls/...

    It would be really great if I could use one of my connected custom domains here instead.

    Also, I would love to implement some custom branding on the public-facing page that contains the shared data.
    Right now, there is a "Proton Drive" logo and a link to setup a free account. This could even be connected to the selection of the domain: If I use the "drive.proton.me" URL, the Proton branding could stay intact, and if use "drive.customdomain.com", the respective branding would appear.

    My use case is that I use Proton for my business and I would like to share files via Proton Drive with clients while maintaining my own brand.

    Thank you in advance for considering this!

    Cheers
    Alex

15. 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, making migration easier.

    Optional enhancements:
    Let owners revoke individual approvals later.
    Combine with existing Proton Drive features like link expiry and passwords for layered security.
    Allow domain restrictions (e.g. only @company.com accounts).

    This would give Proton Drive one of the strongest and most user-friendly access control systems in the privacy-focused cloud market.

16. Migrate From Ente

    I’m currently using Ente until the Proton photo backup feature matures a bit more (and has additional tools like being able to sync deletion of a photo from the Drive with deletion from my device). At that point, I’d like to be able to easily migrate my photos from Ente Photos to Proton Photos.

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 formatting after pasting spreadsheet content.
    Enhanced Creativity – Offers a broader typographic palette for reports, proposals, and other professional documents, aligning the text editor with the modern look of the spreadsheet tool.
    

    Implementation Considerations:

    Sync the font library between the two editors, ensuring any future font additions appear automatically in both places.
    Preserve existing document compatibility; default to the current font set if a newly added font isn’t supported on older clients.
    Update the UI to display the expanded font dropdown without clutter, perhaps grouping “Spreadsheet Fonts” under a dedicated sub‑section.
    

    Conclusion:
    Integrating the spreadsheet font collection into the text document editor will streamline workflows, enhance aesthetic control, and reinforce Proton Drive’s reputation as a cohesive, privacy‑focused productivity platform.

18. Fix the Photos Sort Order Bug

    (NB Photos in browser: android app seems to sort properly.)

    I have many photos, mainly jpegs, that pre-date the digital revolution. I have scanned/re-photographed these old photos either from negative or print and have fixed up the "date taken" to correspond with when the original photo was taken. For people with full family collections this is probably not unusual.

    I am trying my best to migrate my photo library to Proton, but the its the little things that are annoying: the main photos sort by reverse date taken, UNTIL you get to about 1970 (I have tested this) - older photos then start appearing at the top - presumably by date created/modified?

    Can you please fix this bug?

    It must be a bug (or weird "expected" behavior) - a date is a date if you are using it for sort you should honor it no matter what.

    Please don't respond to this with some album functionality - it's not the same.

    PS: Annoyingly, Google Photos handles this properly - but then they can mine my data.

19. 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.

20. Swipe up to see photo details

    When I view a photo inside the Proton Drive gallery, I want to swipe up to see details of the photo (date, camera infos, location) and a map that shows the location of the photo. It could look similar to iCloud.
