plain text editting
Proton Docs need the ability to edit simple, plain text files. Ideally, one should be given the option to open text files as text regardless of extension, as long as they are actual plain text files.
This will give the option to have and be able to edit a bunch of file types that can make proton drive more useful and versatile. For example, one can have a markdown notes folder in proton drive, or even a text-based database, or simply take some simple notes and sync across devices.
It does not need to have any complex features or even…

ask to merge folders of same name during upload
During upload to the browser interface, if I upload an updated version of a previously uploaded folder structure, the app asks me if I want to replace the previous folders of the same name, if I want to skip folders of the same name, or if I want to keep both.
I propose a fourth option of merging folders of similar names and then if this choise is made, ask for the choice of replace, keep both or do nothing for files specifically. This behavior would be similar to the experience of moving or copying files in folders on Windows.…

Crop Photos.
Currently, editing a photo on your phone doesn’t update the version saved in Proton Drive. I often need to crop the photos.

Theme Based Search (Proton drive photos)
I propose adding a theme-based search in Proton Drive, similar to Google Photos, while fully respecting privacy. The idea would be to use a local AI on the device to analyze images and generate encrypted tags or indexes, used only for searching. This way, the images would never leave the device or Proton servers.
I’m not sure if this is technically feasible at scale, but with optimized LLMs and AI recognition models, it might be possible to find a balance between privacy and intelligent search, giving users a richer experience without compromising their personal data.

Inboxes
Maybe this does exist already and I just can't find how to enable it. I'd like to be able to share a folder with other people to which they can only write. It could just be an additional folder access control setting on top of editor and viewer. The use case I am thinking of is secure remote logging, specifically for scripts used by multisig wallet signers.

Proton Docs: Convert footnotes from docx to Docs files and show comments on download
I work in Ulysses (Markdown) and export to Word, store the docx files in Proton Drive and share with a collaborator, and we work together in Docs. While passages marked with the "::" code show as highlighted in docs, footnotes created in markdown, which show up in docx, do not show up in Docs files.
There seems to be no way to download a docs file in any format and have the comments made in the docs file show up in the downloaded file. If there is, please let me know. If not, please consider adding this feature. Thanks.
Please…

Ebook reader
Add an eBook Reader to proton drive so I can read my ePub directly from proton.
Currently I need to download them from proton and then open it to be able to read them on mobile.

View or Filter UNCATEGORISED Photos (those NOT in any Album).
For those of us who like to sort all of our photos into albums as we go along and may periodically wonder "Which ones haven't I filed anywhere yet?", I propose adding a view or filter of UNCATEGORISED Photos -- meaning, those not assigned to any album.
This could be a filter on the main Photos tab -- or it could be implemented as a "magic" Album that cannot be edited by the user and automatically provides a view of all of the photos that do not exist elsewhere.

Collection of Default Templates for Docs
A small collection of generic document templates to select from would be very helpful to get started, showcase design/formatting features and different use cases. A good template also helps with user training by providing examples not just of what can be done, but the settings and formatting used to create it.
The convenience of having some preformatted docs is a huge time saver.

Preserve Photo Metadata
When syncing photos, it would be better if it also created the folders being synced to save having to create them in Proton Drive and move your pictures to it. Also, make it a true sync so if I delete photos from my device, it also removes them from PD.
More importantly. Please preserve the metadata of the original file. It's really important to have your photos with the time and date stamp of when they were taken, and also the location information. This is crucial when restoring your files.

One Click Only To Open PD Items On Phone
It currently takes two clicks to open photos and PDFs in the PD phone app. The first click is the download and the second click is the decryption. I think it’s fair to assume a user that clicks on an item wants to open it, so all processes involved in the opening of that file should be accomplished with a single click.
Thanks for the hard work and taking user feedback! The applications are great.

Low Resolution Place Holders For Photos On Phone
I don't know how feasible this is, but I would love to leave iCloud photo backup entirely for PD, but iCloud allows me to offload all photos and videos into the cloud leaving behind a low resolution thumbnail placeholder so I can still look through all my photos, while still saving memory. Its a life saver for phone storage, but also very useful as I want access to all my photos. Can this be done!? I would contend one of the most prominent reasons why people resort to photo backups is to save space!
Thanks. Great work on all the…

Name, Modified, & Size Filters Specific to Each Page, w/ Memory
I often like to sort the contents of some folders by "name", and some by "modified" date.
1. It would be great to have a global, and folder level memory, such that you can have some folders remain sorted by "modified" date, even if you apply "name globally".
2. Secondly, for some reason, "modified" only seems to pertain to the end item its self, instead of the contents. For instance, if I have a 5 folders and within one of them I edit a Doc., the folder order will not change even though the contents of one of them has…6 votes -
Sanitize Shared Photos
It would be nice to be able to optionally sanitize photos I share with someone. I do want my own photos to include the full metadata available, and sometimes I do want to share that with someone. But sometimes I want to share a photo with someone and I want to know they are not holding onto all the metadata my phone included with it. So it would be nice if sharing photos with someone also had an option to share a version of that photo that has the metadata sanitized.
This seems to be a very important issue, as…

add "secret" albums - certain photos are only displayed in these albums, not in the gallery
Add ability to declare Albums "secret" to hide specific pictures from the general photo gallery ("Photo" tab) and display them only in these specific albums.
It's the equivalent of Apples "secret album", so one can hide sensitive pictures from the general view - especially if the gallery becomes a shared space.Suggestion: when an album is classified as "secret" all pictures in /added to it are automatically removed from the general gallery.

FSP (File Storage Provider) support for iOS and iPadOS
There is support for FSP on macOS for Proton Drive, however it is missing for both iOS and iPadOS. The consequence is that I cannot add a Proton folder as location in for example iA Writer. The net effect is that any file stored on Proton Drive that I want to open, must be manually found through browsing from the root of my Proton Drive. With FSP support on iOS and iPadOS any folder should be available immediately in the interface.
The missing part in the implementation is full folder sharing support in said protocol.
It works flawlessly on macOS.…

Single click to navigate into folders in the Proton Drive web app
Ability to navigate into Proton Drive folders in the web app using single-mouse click would be very convenient when navigating a lot of folders back and forth.

Proton music
Just like you have a section for your Proton photos, you should have a section for your Proton music, because most of us have to listen to our downloaded music from YouTube Music, Dizer and Sportifay. To avoid this and to maintain folder optimization, most of us need Proton music.

Photo album shared link support
Please add shared link support to Photo albums so albums can be shared with non-Proton users.
Drive already offers shared link support for files, folders and individual photos, but shared links for albums is a feature gap.

Show/notify pics and videos taken the same day in previous years
When opening the app (or web app) it would be nice if pics and videos taken the same day in previous years are shown. Also apps could send "on this day" notifications directing to this feature.
