Photo backup from camera - allow choice of destination (to drive or photos)
Allow choice of destination (either a Proton Drive folder of choice OR Proton Photos) for the phone camera photo backup feature.
It currently only allows a sync to the Proton Photos feature, which is
A) very limited (see all the comments in the community).
B) doesn’t allow management of photos across the "drive" and “photos" feature of proton.
C) This also makes sorting and archiving photos collated from different sources and placed into both drive and photos in the Proton architecture, VERY difficult.
In addition, allow drag and drop sorting between Proton drive and Proton photos. Even though this may…

Ability to browse My Files added to Proton Drive in Proton Drive PC app
After downloading the Proton Drive desktop app I have the ability to choose there which folders do I want to sync but to access My Files added to Proton Drive I have to go to File Explorer. I would love to have it in one place and not only have the ability to sync files from my PC through the Proton Drive desktop app but also to have there all My Files added to Proton Drive.

Column view for folders
Problem: it is currently quite slow to explore folder structures with a lot of nested folders (this typically happens in professional structures).
I would love to see a "column view" that would allow me to quickly navigate deep folder structures using my keyboard (arrows). It would be wonderful to pre-load the tree of folders / files to skip making a call to the API every time I browse a new folder

Add a better visualization of the space used on my drive

Allow sharing with Proton email aliases
Currently in Proton Drive, when I try to share a file with someone who is using a Proton alias — for example, foo.bar681@passinbox.com — I get an error message:
"Inviting someone with a Proton or SimpleLogin domain is not permitted."
Why this restriction? Why, in order to receive an invitation to share a Drive file, must we expose our primary email address?

I frequently experience issues with input not being accepted on my iPad Air and Magic Keyboard.
I tried inputting text into Proton Sheets using an 11-inch iPad Air M2 and the official Magic Keyboard, but the following problems frequently occur:
Pressing the cursor keys does not move the cell.
When typing text with the cursor in a cell, the typed text is not entered into the cell (the typed text does not appear anywhere on the screen, and there is no response whatsoever).
The conditions under which these problems occur are unclear. Sometimes, tapping the screen several times will allow input to be accepted, but often this does not.
In any case, these are basic bugs,…

show changes in version history
Version history shows the actual state of a document, but it does not show what has changed (unlike with diff). Highlighting changes is essential to see what has been modified.

add a bulk delete feature for albums especially for those created during google photos import

Better aligned functions between the apps on separate devices
For example: I can share a file/folder from my mobile phone Drive app, and get a link for this. I can even look at the shared files in the dedicated section 'Shared' and flick between 'Shared with me' and 'Shared by me'. Why can't the latter also be part of the desktop app? It would save me a lot of time.
Also, 'Create document' would be great in the desktop Drive app, even if it opens my desktop browser to do so, but a dedicated document app would be fantastic!

Add photos to an album by going to a different album and adding it from there
When I go to add photos to an album, it brings be to all of my photos. It would be helpful if I had the option to navigate to existing albums to add photos from there. Or, if in the album options, to be able to select and "move to" or "copy to" a different album.

Native DLP Capabilities for Business/Visionary Plans
As an Information Security Consultant currently advising small and mid-sized organizations on migrating from legacy suites (specifically Microsoft 365 E3/E5) to privacy-first, sovereign European alternatives. While Proton’s zero-knowledge architecture is the gold standard for data confidentiality, my risk assessments consistently identify a significant gap in Data Loss Prevention (DLP) capabilities for Business and Visionary tiers.
Current compliance frameworks (GDPR Article 32, ISO 27001, SOC 2) require not just encryption at rest/in transit, but active controls against accidental or malicious exfiltration of sensitive data (PII, PHI, PCI-DSS).
Proton excels at preventing external interception. However, it lacks the ability to inspect outbound…

Normalize file names to NFC Unicode on sync to fix macOS–Windows compatibility with Korean characters
[Problem]
macOS stores Korean characters using NFD (Canonical Decomposition), while Windows and Linux use NFC (Canonical Composition). When files with Korean names are synced between platforms, the differing Unicode normalization forms cause file name conflicts, duplication, or sync errors.[Root cause]
macOS HFS+/APFS decomposes characters into constituent jamo (NFD). The same Korean string has a different byte sequence on macOS vs Windows/Linux, even though it looks identical to users. This is a known OS-level behavior, not a user error.[Requested fix]
Normalize all file and folder names to NFC before syncing, regardless of the originating OS. This is the approach…2 votes -
Proton Drive : Create Proton Docs / Proton Sheets from Windows Dropdown Context Menu
It would be highly valuable to integrate Proton Docs and Proton Sheets creation directly into the Windows context menu, similar to how native Microsoft Office files can be created.
Proposed functionality :
When a user right-clicks inside a folder in Windows File Explorer, they should have the option :New → Proton Doc
New → Proton SheetThis action would :
Instantly create a new document linked to the user’s Proton account or open a new document in the browser/app while associating it with that location conceptually.
Streamlining the workflow by reducing friction when creating new documents would make document…

Show current folder when moving files
When I select the title of my current document > move to folder, a popup showing my drive folder structure appears. I'd like to see the current file path on top of the list.
This is useful because I can't accidentally move to a wrong folder or fail to recognize that the file I'm working on is already in there.

Notifications for Changes to Shared Folder
I would love to have notifications (email preferably) when someone outside my organization accesses a shared folder - either to upload files, change/edit files, or download files. It is useful when i am waiting for a client to upload files and I don't have to keep checking the folder.

Media Player basic functions
Hi,
would be awesome, if the Drive have a functionalities for media playback. In my case, I'm talking about audiobooks.Audiobooks (and music albums) have multiple files mostly. So I can listen to them, at the end of one file automaticly jump to a next file. And be able to sync the listening progress - when I stop listening in the middle of an audiofile on my PC web browser Proton drive, I can continue listening on my mobile phone or tablet in a Proton Drive app from the same position.
It can also apply for video, or better all…

Basic and Advanced Word Processing Functionality, rulers, formatting, menu bar, etc.
The word processor is a cornerstone to any productivity or office suite of apps. Please add basic features like rulers, standardized consistent tab settings, paragraph/line spacing/other formatting features, ability to visualize formatting characters (eg: paragraph, indent, etc...) menu bar with functions that have been around for decades, etc.. Just look at Word Processor functions that have been around for decades and implement them in a standardized yet functionally designed way. (do not copy google docs, that is a horrible example)
This is a place Proton can excel and even take over market share as a collaborative document app because Google…
