Distinguish between uploaded files and local files
To somehow be able to distinguish between files that have been uploaded and which have not, so that I can delete them locally.
For instance, sometimes some uploads fail and it is hard to tell which ones and re upload them2 votes -
Enable multiple file selections for offline availability
Using the mobile app, currently it is only possible to select one file at a time for making it available offline. It would be useful if we could select more than one as we may not always have Internet access and it is time consuming to have to wait for one download at a time.

Integrate iOS Proton Drive to transfer files via Share from any application to Proton Drive Mobile
Currently unable to transfer files to Proton Drive via Share. For example a photo from Photos on an iPhone I decide to put on Proton Drive – I cannot transfer via share (no Proton Drive shortcut available, only Proton Mail)

Number of files left to sync for macOS
When syncing to a macOS client it would be nice to see how many files there are left to sync as an idea of how long it may take or if it had got stuck

Support older macOS versions
Currently, the Proton Drive app for Mac is only compatible with version 13 of macOS (Ventura). However, many Mac users operate older versions and may be unable to upgrade due to hardware constraints (older Macs). From an environmental standpoint, it should be able to keep one's computer for as long as it works, and not be forced to trade up just to be able to access a new feature...

Change Drive Password System
My phone is used by many people including my friends. So they know the password of my phone. And because the drive has a device lock system, anyone can easily access it. So it would be better if you use a separate password system on the drive. thank you

Root access to proton drive similar to Dropbox/Onedrive instead of "My files"
Please change this for a better file experience. Many of us map our files, and this current form is messy. Also "Files" should have been capitalized, this looks ridiculous.

Customize Folders to backup structure
An option that doesn't really exists with the competitors, having the ability to choose a target folder for the backups with ProtonDrive.
Right now, if I have a folder "Photos" and I would love to only backup a few folders in it (ex: 2020, 2021, etc.) I have to select those but they will appear on Proton as 2020, 2021. If we could specific the destination folder I could have a "Photos" folder to which I'd select to backup 2020, 2021 in.
Current:
2020 -> 2020
2021 -> 2021Future:
2020 -> Photos\2020
2021 -> Photos\2021Giving more flexibility to…

Segmentation - Multiple Drives Per Account
The ability to completely segment a drive and have multiple drives per account would be a good feature. It would ensure that you could share and/or sync specific drives to a desktop app without the risk of unintended sharing data stored on the other drive(s). Additional drives could be purchased as an add-on or users could elect to split their available account drive capacity across multiple drives.

Support local encryption at rest
Support storing Windows (and Mac when the time comes) files downloaded from Drive encrypted on the local disk. Then, support a virtual drive that presents the files as decrypted. Two examples with good user experiences are:
- Boxcryptor, which optionally supports folder and file name obfuscation.
- Cryptomator, which always forces folder and file name obfuscation.
I personally prefer the former, but either one will be helpful.

When uploading a large number of files, don't upload files already present
Specifically for the android app. When you upload a number of files, some of those files may fail to upload properly. When you upload a 2nd time, it may be difficult to see which files failed on the first try. The app should see if there are files to upload and ask what to do. Always overwrite would upload everything whether to was there in the protondrive or not. Never overwrite would only upload files not already on protondrive. Only upload changed files would only upload files that weren't already there, or if already there, did not match in terms…

Allow the android client to access cameras connected via USB directly.
Right now, if you want to back up photos from a camera to your ProtonDrive account via a tablet, the most straightforward way is to import the images to the tablet, and then open the ProtonDrive app and upload them. I propose skipping the middle step and simply upload them from the camera directly to ProtonDrive.
- If you have an inexpensive tablet, the number of photos to backup might easily exceed the space available on the tablet.
- Such backups might be crucial for photojournalists using professional cameras in ares where security forces sometime confiscate cameras. The alternative is hiding the…

A Microsoft Office Add-In to enable auto-save
Auto save can only be enabled when saving to a cloud. MS only have One drive available but Asus Webstorage have an addin to allow you to use your cloud storage with office. Would be great if Proton Drive could do the same and we could have our documents in a safe place by default

Digital Legacy Platform for Proton Drive
So, having had the genealogy / Ancestry bug for about two years, I am faced with a future problem. Although hopefully at least a couple of decades away from the fateful day, I want to be able to leave a digital legacy of my family research for future generations.
At present, I have identified about 600 genetically related family members, and along with associated records, Birth, Marriage, Death, Census records, newspaper cuttings, ships manifest records and not to mention copious amounts of photos for everyone harvested from many family photobooks and photos shared with me online. I have so far…5 votes -
Implement interface which permits accessing Proton Drive as network share
As a Linux user I’m using duplicity/deja-dup for my local backups. This backup application also supports several protocols to access remote locations, such as ftp/ftps, nfs, ssh, sftp.
In order to make use of Proton Drive storage in this context it would be necessary to access Proton Drive via some of these protocols which would be of great benefit since then incremental backups would be possible.
Currently I can only make a local snapshot backup and then transfer the generated files as a whole bunch which takes considerable transmission time.16 votes
