2. Preview/watch videos from folder view

   From the folder view, video files like mp4 cannot be previewed and appear to need to be downloaded to watch. However, if you click on a photo to view it and then click the right/left arrows to traverse through files in the same folder, videos will load and be viewable. Please make the videos viewable when clicking directly in a folder.

3. User option to disable Proton Drive link sharing

   The ability to share content from my drive makes me uneasy, in case I did this accidentally. I would be much more comfortable if there was a setting to disable all sharing for the account if user desires.

4. Allow merge of folders within Proton Drive

   I've uploaded a significant amount of data, however some of it may be duplicate. When I try to merge a folders within Proton Drive (select and say move to folder where a folder with that name already exists) I get an error about a folder with that name already existing in the destination rather and being prompted for whether I was to skip or overwrite.

5. Scanning documents

   If saving a physical document into Proton Drive, it needs to be scanned first. It would be great to get it into be a pdf-file directly from Proton Drive. Not using a third party app. Take a look at Tresorit to see how they solved it.

6. Alter documents in Drive without downloading, altering, and re-uploading/replacing

   I would like to be able to interact with and alter/edit documents inside the drive. It is cumbersome to make a simple edit to a document by having to download, alter elsewhere, and then upload and delete the older version.

8. Keyboard shortcuts for powerusers

   Have a tighter integration for keyboard shortcuts:
   - Navigation with keyboard shortcuts should be possible (arrow up, down, Enter to open a folder
   - F2 for renaming folders
   - Copy/Cut/Paste
   - Share files

9. Family sharing

10. Proton Drive Password Protection

    For the past few months, I have been using the Proton Drive. It's a great resource, but I'm always active on my email and wait to log out. My concern is that I have sensitive documents in my Drive, and I would like to have the option to set passwords to folders, or when accessing DRIVE, the system will ask me for the password to edit and move or delete any document. However, the password will not be required to upload documents. This way, if someone takes control of my computer, they won't be able to access my files as quickly as it is now.

11. Separate data limits for Proton Mail and Drive

    Currently, as far as I understand, Proton Ultimate paid plan gives 500GB across all the mail accounts AND Drive.
    This is silly and annoying... I have already asked for and voted for MUCH higher Drive data capacities (minimum 1TB) because 500GB is simply not adequate.
    But to then have to worry that the 15 email addresses I can use with my Proton Ultimate would start eating into my Drive data is crazy! If I value something enough to pay for cloud storage, I consider it IMPORTANT and don't want the possibility of a bunch of emails with heavy attachments causing problems for my Drive data allocation.
    Please change this -- separate data allocations for Mail and Drive.
    Thank you.

12. Shared folders linked to Proton account (not just public links)

    Privacy and security are at the core of Proton's mission. Sharing folders through Proton Drive should be no different. A public URL for sharing stops short of privacy and security. A model that upholds privacy and security would be an invite model. Invite a specific person to the folder, if they do not have a Proton account, they can create one. They use this login to access files in the shared folder.

    A public URL has zero traceability to who is accessing the data. An invitation to a specific person would allow for traceability of the files in the folder being shared by the Proton Drive customer.

    An additional option to select members of an organization in a Business/Professional or Visionary Plan to share a Proton Drive folder with is also in alignment with specific people having access to specific things in the name of privacy and security.

13. Organize with tags

    Please, it would be extremely useful to implement the tags feature, similar to what already exists in ProtonMail. This makes it easy to organize and find the different types of files on ProtonDrive.

14. Upload Folder

    None of the other main cloud storage providers offer this either, so I'm not sure if it's a limitation, but I'd like the option to Upload a Folder, not just a File. This is for both web and app.

    Copying individual files becomes laborious when backing up items that have further embedded folders, files and hidden files.

16. Sync Timing - Preset specific time, date, frequency to sync files & folders to ProtonDrive

    What is missing and to make things infinitely easier is not only syncing which is CRITICAL, but to have functionality to set the frequency... continual on changes, specific days, daily, weekly, monthly, semi annual along with the time to do so. This could be extended to be a single upload to regular on the specified intervals. Given that a file size can be 200GB (full system back up for example) picking a time and date to upload such a file is important due to the time and bandwidth that this would take.
    This along with unlimited file size will differentiate you to the market leader in secure cloud storage, Tresorit. It will also make it far more impactful than it currently is.
    I'm a Business Tresorit user as well as a Business Proton user and have been from the start with both.... Tresorit is miles in front of Proton Drive and this should be expected given this is new for Proton. However, I believe that syncing and the functionality suggested in this recommendation will help your push for subscribers greatly

19. Add "Copy to folder" in Proton Web

    Currently there is "Move to folder" feature. But to duplicate a file or folder you have to re-upload the entire thing.

    Use case: Assume you have folder "MyDocuments" of 50 GB and you want a second backup of "MyDocumentsOLD" as a sort of version control just in case you break something in MyDocuments or corrupt a zipped file.

    Problems with existing feature: It takes a LONG time to upload 50GB to Proton Drive. An internal Copy feature would be zero time for the user.
    Also, you might have changed local files, that you don't want to upload to the backup, so now you have to redownload the original backup folder, next to the updated folder locally, taking up more space, then reupload it and delete it.

20. Selective syncing of files for Mac/Linux/Windows

    Actual syncing of files is so important, that I was considering to upgrade my plan today for getting 500GB storage. But then I realized that ProtonDrive doesn't sync files, and that it works with manual upload/download only, so it wouldn't be useful for me, and so I'll wait rather than upgrade now.

    I work with Mac, Linux, and Windows computers, so I need to sync across them.

    Also note that I said "selective syncing". It would be highly desirable that if you have 200GB of files and you start working with a computer you didn't sync yet, this doesn't trigger a 200GB download, but just a download of the files you really need in that moment. I realize that doing this automatically would be technically challenging (specially if you support Mac, Linux, and Windows), because it would require low-level integration with the filesystem, which is a hard thing, but... I tend to believe there could be some manual workaround (like manually limiting the synced folders/files for a computer) that could offer almost the same functionality without a technically difficult solution.

    Selective syncing is not just about avoiding unnecessary huge downloads, but to be able to work in computers whose free disk space is not enough for storing all your files: if you could choose to sync only a part of the folders tree in that limited space computer, it would be perfect.

    By the way, being able to bypass network-based syncing in some situations, by copying the files with a physical hard disk, would be a plus. Just imagine: You get a new laptop, and you want to sync on it your 200GB of files. Rather than doing it with the network, if you have your files in another computer and you can copy them with a physical disk or local network, you would save lots of unnecesary network traffic. Then, after such big copy is done, the new laptop will continue working with network-based syncing as usual.
