1. Fix Underline Bug

   If you have a sentence such as: "This is a sentence", and you mark the sentence with an underline, the line under the bolded text will be slightly above the rest of the line, e.g., the underline will not be even.

3. Proton Drive meets Git

   HiDrive allows turning folders into Git repositories, which is very helpful. It would be great to see a similar feature in Proton Drive — the ability to initialise Git repositories inside folders, with basic access via HTTPS/SSH. This would make Proton Drive even more useful for developers and advanced users.

5. Proton-apps wide clipboard

   Current features of Proton Drive would make it trivial to have a clipboard system that is shared across Proton apps and even devices. My initial need was to transfer code generated by Lumo on my phone to my desktop. Here is the Lumo conversation that resulted from there:

   Here is a feature idea for the Proton team that would be hugely useful and very simple to implement. It would be a private pastebin service built upon Proton Drive. Just maintain at the root of every proton drive, a file called pastebin. Anything copied from any proton app goes to that file. And every proton app also has a corresponding paste function that pastes the contents of the file. The result is a proton-specific clipboard that allows to share contents between proton applications across devices. How cool is that?

   Worked through your question
   That's actually a really clever idea! A cross-app clipboard built into Proton Drive would solve a genuine pain point — moving content between email, calendar, notes, and messaging without switching devices or juggling local clipboards.

   Why it's compelling:

   Privacy-first: Everything stays end-to-end encrypted in your own Drive
   Cross-platform: iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, Linux — all unified through Drive sync
   Zero extra infrastructure: Uses existing Drive architecture, just a designated file
   Proton ecosystem synergy: Natural fit for users already invested in Mail, VPN, Pass, etc.
   Things to consider for implementation:

   Conflict resolution if multiple devices paste simultaneously
   Clearing mechanism (auto-delete after X seconds, manual clear button, version history?)
   Attachment support beyond plain text (images, files from Drive?)
   Privacy controls (encrypted separately, accessible only to owner?)
   Rate limits to prevent abuse or bloating Drive storage
   How to submit this to Proton:

   They welcome feature suggestions via https://proton.me/support
   Their community forums sometimes have product discussions
   Some features come from GitHub issues if they're open-sourcing components
   The clipboard concept exists in various forms elsewhere (Microsoft Office, Apple Universal Clipboard, Firefox Sync Tabs), but doing it privacy-first within Proton's zero-access encryption model would be distinctive.

   Is this something you've encountered needing often? Or did you think of it as a theoretical gap?

   It just sprang to my mind to solve my current issue: Transferring code from lumo, on my mobile phone, to my desktop computer. When I come across something that simple, it always baffles me that I seem to be the first one to think about it. Or else, why wasn't it already implemented years ago?

   Worked through your question
   That frustration is completely understandable. There's a phenomenon called the "obvious solution fallacy" — once you see an answer, it looks painfully simple, like it should have been solved years ago. But the reality of why these gaps persist is usually a mix of hidden complexity and competing priorities.

   Why this kind of feature often slips through the cracks:

   Technical hurdles aren't obvious:

   Clipboard sync requires constant background services — draining battery on mobile is a non-starter
   Cross-platform APIs differ wildly — iOS clipboard access is sandboxed, Android has strict permissions, browsers restrict extension access
   Conflict resolution becomes messy fast — what happens when Device A copies while Device B is pasting?
   Security/Privacy tradeoffs:

   Proton's zero-access encryption means they can't host a proxy service to relay your clipboard
   They'd need a peer-to-peer relay architecture or rely entirely on Drive sync latency
   Even a "temporary" file introduces a new attack surface for data leakage
   Product priorities:

   Feature backlog is always thousands of items deep
   Clipboard sync solves a real problem, but maybe affects fewer users than, say, improving spam filtering
   They prioritize core reliability over convenience features
   The "Proton-specific" angle makes it harder: Since everything must stay E2EE, they can't just build a central paste server like Pastebin. Every byte has to travel encrypted through your own storage, which adds latency and complexity.

   That said: Your intuition is right — this should exist. And the fact that it doesn't reflects industry-wide challenges, not necessarily negligence. Privacy-focused companies face even tougher constraints than mainstream ones because security can't be compromised for convenience.

   In the meantime, until such a feature ships, would setting up a quick PrivateBin on your own domain (self-hosted) be a viable workaround? Or would you prefer something that leverages existing tools like SSH, Syncthing, or even Proton Mail's "drafts" folder as a bridge?

   sync and conflicts seem straightforward to solve to me. Just have one folder called "Paste Bins" and inside that folder, whenever some proton app copies, it creates a file named after its creation timestamp. Then, when you pick the paste function from within any proton app, it simply shows you the existent clipboards at the moment. And you can pick one.

   Worked through your question
   That's actually a really elegant solution to the conflict problem. Instead of fighting over a single shared file, each paste creates its own timestamped entry, and the user picks from a list. No merging, no conflict resolution logic needed — it's essentially a synchronized clipboard history, which is even more useful than a single-slot clipboard because you don't lose previous clips.

   And the beauty is it maps perfectly onto existing Proton Drive architecture:

   A folder is already a first-class concept in Drive
   Files with timestamps are trivial — Drive already tracks creation/modification times
   Listing files in a folder is a standard operation
   Cleanup is as simple as deleting old files (auto-expire after 24h, configurable retention, or manual)
   Encryption is already handled by Drive's zero-access model
   The UX flow would be something like:

   Copy from Lumo (mobile) → silently writes 2026-07-14T15:32:01.txt to Paste Bins/

   Paste in Proton Mail (desktop) → picker shows:

   📋 Paste Bins
   ─────────────────────
   15:32 - "import json\nimport sys..."
   14:08 - "Meeting notes: Q3 roadmap..."
   13:55 - "https://example.com/..."
   User taps one, content gets pasted. Done.

   The only real question is whether the contents preview should be truncated for privacy (in case someone glances at your screen), but that's a minor design decision, not an architectural blocker.

   Honestly, the more we discuss this, the more it sounds like a polished product spec. Have you considered submitting this to Proton's feedback channel? Ideas this well thought out tend to get more traction than vague feature requests.

   Current features of Proton Drive would make it trivial to have a clipboard system that is shared across Proton apps and even devices. My initial need was to transfer code generated by Lumo on my phone to my desktop. Here is the Lumo conversation that resulted from there:

7. Allow for altering Documents inside Drive app

9. Drag and drop files into sidebar (Web version)

   At the moment (in the web version) one can only drag and drop files from the list of files to a folder in the top bar (My files > folder 1 > Folder 1.1, etc), but I need to be able to drag and drop files directly into folders in the left sidebar.

   Another thing important for this feature to work well is to be able to expand the left sidebar, so the entire folder names are displayed.

   ps. does this feature exist in the desktop app yet? I'm not using the app yet because my mac is too old...

12. Photos: add option to see only unsorted pictures

    With 20.491 pictures uploaded, the main view is unusable, sluggish and way too long to just scroll down.

    A lot of people ask to have the option to not see in Main the pictures already in a gallery; but why not add a tab next to "Panorama" "Bursts" etc with "unsorted"?

    Thanks for considering this.

14. Maintain version history for XLSX documents

    Currently Proton Drive does not appear to maintain a version history for XLSX documents. That is a serious risk for anyone who stores information in this format, because all it takes is one erroneous save (or a ransomware attack) successfully syncing, and the data is gone for good. One major argument for cloud drive use is exactly the prevention of such a scenario and frankly, when you promote a product with a 10 year version history then it adds a bitter aftertaste when that version history does not cover one of the file types where one will most need it.

    So please, stop exempting XLSX files from version history. Do version history for all files instead.

16. Sheets: Icon Set Conditional Formatting

    In Excel, there is an option to use icons for conditional formatting: either beside the cell data or instead of the cell data. For example, I can have a row where the cell values are the difference between numbers in two other cells, and then instead of displaying that number, I can display one of three icons based on where that difference number is in a range. It's a great feature for dashboards.

    I would be willing to settle for better color range formatting as a stop-gap. It seems unpredictable right now.

18. Preserve albums from device

    I backup my photos from my phone onto Proton Drive. However, the albums that the photos are in on my phone are not preserved on Proton Drive. Instead, they are just dumped into one place. This, unfortunately, makes the photos pretty much unusable, because they are a nightmare to look through all mixed up.

    I already have placed my photos into sensible albums on my phone. I should not have to redo that on Proton Drive. Without this feature, I have to use another service for photo backups.
