  2. Edit file metadata (including photos)

    Don't need much. Currently, the Photos portion of Drive doesn't have any capability beyond view photo.

    I would like to be able to upload lots of photos and re-arrange them/fix metadata issues.

    Primarily, Windows has taken some of my old photos I've edited/restored and made the Date Modified to today's date, when the photo date taken was 1965. But when I upload to Photos, it appears as today's date.

    I should be able to easily go in and correct these mistakes.

  3. Sync with QNAP NAS

    What I miss the most on Proton Drive is ability to Sync folders with QNAP NAS. It would be awesome to have Proton Drive as a secure cloud backup storage.

  4. Edit photos

    Now that we have the photo backup in Proton Drive, it would be great to have the same edit features for the pictures as Google Photos (crop, ajust luminosity, contrast, etc)

  5. Folder specific layouts

    Each folder should have its own layout. A folder should remember the layout I set it to, and use that layout when opened later.

  6. search photos by date

    Allow or enable searching photos in Drive by date of capture. For example, if I search "12 June 2023" or "2023-06-12" show me all the photos in my Drive taken on that day. And similar to search by week or month

  7. Share Photos folder

    It's great we can finally sync our photos automatically with Proton Drive, but now, we'd like to share them.

    I would like to be able to share the whole folder with people from my family account.

    Congrats for all your great work !

  8. Choose photo sync folder per device

    Hello,

    It would be good to allow the user to select the folder where Photos are synced to for each device, as done by other services.

    This would be particularly useful when a user possesses more than one mobile device and wishes to keep the photos of each of those devices separate from the others.

    Example:
    Mobile 1: PhotoFolder1
    Mobile 2: PhotoFolder2
    Mobile 3: PhotoFolder1

    Thank you

  10. Set number of times a shared file can be accessed

    I want to be able to share a file with a password that can only be used once.

    My motivation for this is that it greatly helps detect when a breach has happened because the person you're trying to share with won't be able to access the file as somebody got there before them.

  11. Add ability to Copy, Paste, Better Sorts, Like, Rotate, etc

    We need some basic features like CUT/COPY/PASTE. Would like to be able to sort using other metadata besides the upload/modified date - for photos, creation date is essential for sorting. What about tagging/liking/favoriting/♥️ photos? Not having the ability to scroll through photos and easily view the detailed metadata will be a dealbreaker at some point. Basic photo editing tools like at least ‘rotate’ would be great. It really needs some of these simple features to make it usable.

  12. Sync iPad OS file changes

    Presently the Windows client of Proton Drive allows launch, change and save of files. That function is not active in the OS for the ipad, where any changes made to a file are not saved to the drive file. This means I can make, save and leave a file thinking its updated and when I return to it, the changes are missing.

    Lets fix this! thanks

  13. Reaction tracker button

    Dear Proton Development Team,

    I'd like to suggest a valuable addition to enhance user engagement: the introduction of a "Reaction Tracker" button for folders. Here's a brief overview of how this feature could function:

    1. Users can activate the Reaction Tracker for a specific folder within the Proton app.
    2. When a recipient opens a shared video link from that folder, their face camera will automatically initiate recording.
    3. The recorded reaction videos would be neatly stored in a designated folder titled "Recorded Reactions" for easy access.

    This innovative feature not only adds an element of surprise and delight to video sharing but…

  15. Containers with own password and 2fa

    Allow the creation of separate proton drive containers where you can setup individual security (passwords and 2fa) for each container. So when you go to proton drive not all containers are always mounted. This has the advantage that if your computer is breached or infected not all your drive containers and files within are directly accessible.

  16. Pause backup photos

    Pause backup photos on Android.
    It is sometimes necessary to delete some photos before backing them up.

    Deleting backed up photos is much slower than deleting photos in the phone gallery, and when automatic backup is enabled, you have to delete photos both in the phone gallery and on Proton Drive.

    Manually turning backups off and on takes a long time because it's deeper in the settings, someone needs to specify yet another folder for backups, and most importantly, when backups are turned on, all the photos on the phone are synced if they're already backed up.

    Thank you.

  17. resync to folder

    The ability to sync to an existing folder.

    If I have to reinstall Proton Drive, such as when I reinstall Windows, I cant have it point to the existing folder I use for Syncing Proton Drive. I have to create a new folder, which just creates a mess and a duplication of data (and the fear of losing something). I should just be able to point to the existing sync folder, and continue on.

  19. Show total size of folders (both online and in app)

    Calculate and display the total size of a folder and all files within, both online and in the sync app.

    Currently you can only see the size of the folder if you downloaded all folder contents to your device. Otherwise it reports the system folder size of 0kb.

  20. Delete local copy of files when logging out

    I would like it if when i log the protondrive app out (from the pc itself or remotely) to have it delete the local files of protondrive aswell.

    When i have used protondrive for a bit on a computer, after that i have to logout and then manually delete the folder to make sure no-one has access to my files afterwards.

    This is a feature that should atleast have exsisted if you remote logout the app from the browser (like dropbox has incase the device is lost / stolen)
