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.

Ability to overwrite a file
Currently if editing a file in Drive with an external application (Libre Office, AndrOpen Office, etc) there is no way to save the file. I have to "Save As", delete the original and rename the new one. Contacted support and was given the usual "This is how it is, it may be fixed in a future version¨. I say this is a bug that should have been caught in alpha testing and frankly I'm shocked that I'm the first to mention this here.

Add option to regenerate Thumbnail images
Sometimes the Thumbnails don't seem to get generated, or simply wrong for some reason. Add an option to rebuild/regenerate the Thumbnails would help.

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.

Delete original backup if organized into an album
I'm wondering if it would be feasible to add a feature into proton drive, where the original videos and photos get backed up if its possible to delete it after that same photo or video gets moved into an album as I imagine for most people it would be easier to search through named albums vs a random collection of pics and videos put together.
TL;DR - Photo/video gets backed up>Move photo/video to album>Delete original photo/video (without deleting the one in the album). Saves space and keeps things clean and organized

Priority Downloads
Similar to when updating an application on IOS it would be great when I'm already downloading multiple files at once I can select one to prioritize in the download queue.
On example use case is the user is downloading their music library or photos but needs access to a critical document quickly but it is stuck at the end of the download queue. You just have to wait until all the other files are finished downloading before you can access that document.

Allow syncing to same folder location for multiple windows/macOs/linux user accounts
I am working with two different user accounts on my windows machine. One for work, one for personal stuff. I want to use the Proton Drive for both accounts. Unfortunately when I tried to set up Proton Drive on the second account to sync with the same folder I got an error message instead:
"Invalid sync folder: The folder must be empty before setting up sync"It wouldn't make any sense to choose a different folder and have everything twice on my computer

Cloud Media Settings on Android
You can configure cloud media settings on Android.
Here you can specify which cloud media should be displayed when an app or website asks you to select photos or videos.
Google Photos is listed here by default. However, you can also change it to "None."
It would be great if Proton Drive appeared here as well.
Could you consider this?4 votes -
Show users you’ve already shared something with as suggestions when sharing.
Right now, it only shows email addresses you’ve already emailed with. But that’s mostly irrelevant. Users you’ve actually shared stuff with don’t show up at all. Me (and I guess others) have contacts we share things with but have never mailed. These should appear as suggestion when sharing.

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.

Add a tool for convert documents
I think this is an excellent additional feature, not only for documents and images, but also for audio and video files.

Allow to import photos from a synced folder
The new landed import photos feature in Proton drive only allows importing photos that are not in a synced folder. This doesn't make sense, as photos are stored separately in Proton Drive. Therefore, not allowing the import of such folders makes it impossible to move photos from the Documents Drive folder to the photo section.

Show thumbnails for offloaded image and video files on Windows
Currently when files are offloaded on Windows, there's no image or video thumbnails generated, so you either need to use the web app, or need to re-download entire folders of files back to the PC just to be able to find a specific file.
It would be much better if these worked like OneDrive and iCloud Photos where the files are stored online-only but are still able to generate local thumbnails for quick and convenient browsing.
Ideally this should also support modern image and video formats (AVIF/AV1, HEIF/HEVC, WEBP etc) as well as just the basic JPG and PNGs as…
