Sort albuns by name
Currently, Albuns are sorted by creation date.
It would be very useful if we could sort them alphabetically.23 votes -
Lightweight notetaking/todo app
I’m looking for a lightweight notetaking/todo app like Google Keep. I want to be able to write quick notes and organize lists (groceries, chores, tasks, etc.) in one place. It should stay in sync between my computer and my phone so I can add things anywhere. Markdown support would be great so I can bring my existing notes into it.
Thanks for considering this!

Dont upload edited Photos from IOS as duplicate
Currently, if i edit a Photo on IOS it uploads to Proton 2 Photos (one original and one Edited). This should not be or be optimised (maybe ask if i want to synch the original or edited Photo). Since i personally edit a lot of Photos, i have lots of Duplicates (and therefore a lot of Space used) in ProtonDrive

IOS 26.1 Background image upload
Apple is providing the ability to upload images in the background in 26.1, can we expect Proton Drive to finally upload pictures in the background?

Some feature for app
I hope these features will be available on iOS and Android.
It should be possible to share files from anywhere on the phone with the app so that they can be uploaded, such as photos or other types of files.
There should be a video player within the app that supports video quality control, as well as an audio player.
It should be possible to upload selected photos without having to obtain permission to access all photos.
Alternative connection options should be provided in the app to solve the problem of apps being blocked in some countries, such as Proton…

Mobile app - photo upload as files, not photos
Just add a choice in the mobile app to upload photos from my mobile as image files to "My Files" in Proton Drive, instead of forcing upload as photos to use in Albums (which is not accessible through the Windows client). This would give us the option to use a service or not and would also address all "uservoice" posts requesting the images to be accessible from the Windows Explorer.

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.

View videos on mobile
Currently, to view videos stored on proton drive, you have to download them. An option is to allow apps like vlc, the ability to view/stream these videos, instead of having to download them.

Support for GNOME/KDE online accounts
Using the GNOME or KDE online accounts applet you should be able to use Proton services like Proton Mail, Proton Drive, Proton Pass etc. by logging in to your Proton account. Nextcloud and Google have support for both, and Microsoft is supported in GNOME enviroments. Posted this in the Drive section since currently only the Drive app and various other early access apps cannot run natively in Linux.

My Files - Rename or Remove
It looks like all files go into a top level directory called "My Files." Having a space in a path name can cause problems in some software tools and is more difficult to traverse on the command line. I would like to be able to rename the folder to something without a space, or eliminate it completely and manage the top level tree myself.

Proposal to Add Version Control System (VCS) Support to Proton Drive
Dear Proton Drive Development Team,
I hope this message finds you in good time. First of all, I'd like to thank Proton Drive for the excellent services it offers. Your commitment to security, privacy, and ease of use, in particular, makes your platform indispensable for many users.
However, I have a suggestion for a feature that could be added to Proton Drive for software developers: Version Control System (VCS) Support.
Why Would VCS Support Be an Opportunity for Proton Drive?
Version control has become a fundamental tool in the software development process. It allows teams to efficiently manage their projects,…

Table of Contents :: Proton Docs
Thanks for making Proton Docs!
Will you please add a button to toggle a floating table of contents to the left side of a document that is being viewed or edited?
Ideally, the TOC would show the headers of the document that would scroll to that part of the document when clicked. This would be similar to the feature in Google Docs. Additionally, a config option for it to set how many headers deep it would show would also be helpful.
Thanks again!

Proton Scribe in Proton Docs
I recently upgraded to Proton Duo purely to get access to Proton Scribe. I just assumed it would be built into both the email client and Proton Docs but now see this is sadly not the case.
Given how tech and office environments are developing, including this functionality is arguably already critical to keep Proton docs competitive and attractive to users.
Please consider adding a Proton Scribe feature in Proton Docs -- it would hugely simplify and improve my work, and I'm sure that of many others.

Add Commenter role to allow commenting without editing
In addition to Editor and Viewer, it would be great to have a Commenter role available at the Doc and folder level, as in Google Drive.
I'd love to allow collaborators to comment on, but not edit, any Proton Doc in a shared folder.

app specific password for programatic drive access
I am using MFA to access Proton services.
I am testing Proton Drive as a backup solution, using rclone to send nightly deltas of a folder to the drive. This needs MFA, though, so it breaks after a while.
Could you add app-specific--passwords so that this can be achieved, without using MFA for this, but still keeping MFA for normal access?Thank you.

Allow editing of photos
It would be very useful to be able to edit photos, such as cropping, rotating, and adding filters. It doesn't necessarily need to have very advanced features, just the basics.

Create/Edit excel files in Proton Drive (EcoSystem)
It would be nice to edit/create excel files within the Proton Drive suite.
Same functionality as https://proton.me/blog/docs-proton-drive, but then also for Excel instead of Word documents.
