  1. Markdown support

    We all need the key feature, which is Docs and Sheets support, but in the meantime would be also nice to deliver markdown support to be able to create it directly in the drive and export it to PDF for example. I guess that most of cases people need to create some kind of statements or easy documents and export them, and it could be done just with markdown integration as we can see with HackMD or Obsidian and other. From my point of view, it's a trade-off between developer complexity and user usability.

  2. Machine assigment selection on first run of proton Drive

    Proton Drive should be able to recognise or atleast ask you when you install it if you want to asign the backup to an actually backed up host for restoration purposes.

    F.E: Someone needs to fully format his PC and when it does it and installs protondrive, the application asks if we want assign and restore from an existing machine backup.

    This also will prevent to bloat protondrive storage use and make it a lot more useful.

    Also we should be able to delete old machines registered.

    This feature is already on Microsoft Onedrive

  5. Organize with tags

    Please, it would be extremely useful to implement the tags feature, similar to what already exists in ProtonMail. This makes it easy to organize and find the different types of files on ProtonDrive.

  8. Multiple passwords for share links

    I'd love to see the ability to add more than one password for a share link that you can individually control and remove. This would add an extra level of security when sharing with multiple people and allow you to better control your opsec. Say one person shares the password without permission, you can effectively kick them off the link by just deleting that one password while still allowing others to access with their own password that you gave them.

  9. Consistent UI experience when using mobile apps

    When using Mail, Calendar and Drive they are like from different companies. It would be great to have consistent UI experience when using them.

  10. I have a Samsung Android phone. I have Drive on it and need to have all folders password protected except for uploading photos automatically

    I have a Samsung Android phone. I have Drive on it and i must be logged on Drive for my photos to automatically go to Drive 'cloud'. If I am not logged on, then photos do not go to the Drive 'cloud'. When I am logged on Drive so the photos will upload, it makes all files on Drive accessible if my phone is compromised. I want to have all other folders password protected, but photos able to upload and not be password protected. I hope you get what I am asking for. Thanks!

  12. Docs: AsciiDoc Export/Download

    Add a new option to Export and Download a Doc in AsciiDoc format. This would be similar to what you do now with Markdown, but the syntax is slightly different.

    See this reference for the difference in syntax. https://docs.asciidoctor.org/asciidoc/latest/asciidoc-vs-markdown/

  16. Ability to give write access to third party apps

    As of my understanding, third party apps can only read files from the Proton Drive cloud (Android). It would be nice if they could also write if you choose to. In my case, I would use it to save a keepass database back and forth.

  17. Add a comment to an upload

    In Proton Drive, I would like to add comments to the files I upload.

    I use it to backup generations of programs and it would be very helpful to be able to note what changes are in each generation.

  18. Retain Proton Drive folder data on local disk, as selectable default

    I would like the functionality for Proton Drive folder to retain copy of data on my local disk, and have this functionality be selectable as a default.

    My preference is to utilize 3-2-1 backup strategy,
    copy-1 located on laptop,
    copy-2 located on nearby portable disk, and
    copy-3 located offsite-remote (Proton Drive).

    Current default behavior of Proton Drive is to REMOVE copy-1 after creating copy-3.
    Current process available is to MANUALLY perform “DOWNLOAD” from copy-3, although I prefer to have this process available as selectable default.

  19. Provide a preview for all files on Mac OS

    The problem with Mac OS is that only locally downloaded files have a thumbnail.

    When you have a large amount of data on ProtonDrive, you don't download all the files locally, but you still need to move or reorganise them.

    This is difficult to do without the preview.

  20. 2FA protection for certain files and folders

    Drive should have something like the "Personal Vault" from OneDrive.

    Everything in the Proton Drive is available all the time everywhere. As some files are extremely critical, but dont need to be looked at or changed all the time from everywhere, this is a convenient weakness.

    Example: I don't want my Bitcoin recovery phrase on the android app to be be "protected" with a fingerprint, and on the unlocked PC not protected at all.
