  3. Don't default move deleted files to Trash, and make this configurable and more transparent.

    I only found out by accident that deleted files end up in an online-only Trash folder instead of being deleted. From a privacy and security centric company I find this quite shocking.

    I would expect at the very last for this to be:

    a) Opt-in, preferably with flexible retention.
    b) Much, much more explicit, and definitely not entirely obscured by the app and only discoverable via the web interface.

    I don't want to have to remember that files I deleted are still stored at online at Proton, and having to go to the web to ensure they're really gone.

  4. List all files in drive recursively, by size

    It would be nice if we could list all files in our drive, and have them ordered by size so we can see the biggest files first.

  6. Register Proton Drive mobile app to open local PDF files

    The Proton Drive mobile app can open PDF files uploaded within the app. However, it is not registered to open PDF files from within the system (e.g. a PDF file inside the File Manager). Adding this won't be difficult, especially since Proton Drive mobile app can already open these files.

  8. ebooks library support

    I would find useful a new section in ProtonDrive dedicated to eBooks, that allows not just to see all the ebooks in one place, but also to organize them in "shelfs" or "tags", and, why not, with the ability to actually read them in it

  10. Option to ignore sync issues in specific folders

    ProtonDrive displays a bunch of sync issues for file locks which may be unessential to sync immediately. This presents a problem for when actual sync issues show up which may go unnoticed. There should be an option to disable sync issues for specific folders, as well as a section to display "ignored" sync issues.

    In my case, I have ProtonDrive to sync my Thunderbird profiles. Thunderbird constantly uses these files, so there is a file lock on many of them and ProtonDrive is unable to sync. This is expected functionality however, and the files will sync once Thunderbird is closed.…

  11. Provide .msix package with appcontainer enabled

    Appcontainer (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/msix/msix-container) makes app sandbox possible on Windows. Pls use .msix with it rather than traditional win32 apps.

  12. Create a virtual drive on computers to allow easy file access (similar to pCloud's pDrive)

    I've stuck with pCloud because of it's amazing pDrive (virtual drive) feature. By implementing a virtual drive, users will see all of their files and be able to interact with them as though the files existed on their PCs or Macs. For example, your accounts files might be on P:\Accounts. Then you could drag and drop and even put links to the files within documents or local spreadsheets. This is an extremely useful feature and would make Proton Drive operate seamlessly with computers.

  13. Expand/collapse folders in list view

    Currently you can only expand the folders from the sidebar navigation like with Proton Mail. While this works for Protonmail, for a filesystem like Proton Drive it makes navigating a lot simpler and intuitive when you can just do this from the main list view and reserve the sidebar for pinned folders and files.

  15. Open files in other apps

    Please allow us to directly open files in our Drive with another Android application. I don't need an integrated viewer for every type of file, just away to open the applications that are already registered for that type of file on my phone.

    I recently moved in from Dropbox to Proton Drive, and I probably wouldn't have done it had I realized this feature was unavailable!

  16. See everything in Proton Drive on all platforms

    Description does include why as well
    .To know 100% that a file is backed up onto the drive and it's there. So you can press” all the files on Proton Drive’
    and it shows ALL THe files ever uploaded that are there currently and you can search for it or at least filter by name type size. A SEARCH FEATURE would be a f awesome thing
    My phone is chock a block and needed to for security of a person's actions document vast amounts of info

  18. I am wanting to know what Proton's plans are if the EU goes through with plans to make Proton scan files before encrypting them.

    I use Proton because of the strong privacy laws in the countries where Proton has servers. I know that the first step the EU is discussing is making Proton scan files before saving them for child pornography. But we all know once they have that they will have you scanning files for anything they find objectionable. Will Proton move its servers to a secure country if that law passes?

  19. View files as text (regardless of file extension)

    Sometimes I have files that do not end in .txt, but I know they are basically text files. Currently I can't see their contents at all on my mobile device. For example, Emacs org-mode notes (end in ".org"). It would be nice if there was an option in the "..." menu like "View as text".

  20. Sync parent folder containing subfolders containing albums

    Currently the Proton Drive Android app lets you sync local folders, but with a limitation: if you have a big folder containing multiple subfolders (like that you get out from a Google Photos takeout), the Android app shows all the subfolders individually, instead of letting you choose any of the parent folders. Selecting these subfolders can be tiresome if you have photos spanning 15 years. It would be really nice to have more flexibility in the choice of the folders to sync.
