  1. Proton Drive should preserve file/folder created & modified timestamps on download

    Proton Drive is currently not preserving the created and modified timestamps of files and folders when downloaded back onto a device (at least not using the Windows client). The timestamps are indeed correctly stored on the server when viewing the items using the web interface. This is already a feature of OneDrive and is important for some users who rely on documents having accurate timestamped objects.

  2. ProtonDrive Screenshot instant sharing feature (Like dropbox has now)

    I think everyone who is using or have been used Dropbox for files sharing on macOS was happy and find it so useful and time saving feature - instant screenshot sharing option. For those who doesn't know I explain how it should work.

    You make screenshot on the macOS (SHIFT+CMD+4) and your screenshot is instantly uploaded to ProtonDrive and the URL link copied to clipboard.

    Asking for macOS Client firstly, but if possible to make it for Linux and Windows as well, why not to include it in the roadmap?

  3. AI auto files organisation for drive

    Now we have a lot of AI tools to help us, but no drive has implemented an artificial intelligence solution to organize our files automatically.

    We all have lots of files lying around but we never have time to organize them well, put them in the correct folders, etc. An AI that does this for us will be perfect

  4. Windows client on mutli-account PC

    I am using two different user accounts on my PC (one for work, one for private purposes).

    I want to access and sync my private Proton Drive folder while using my work profile. OneDrive supports this, I just create a folder, e.g., c:\OneDrive and enable sync on both user accounts. If I do the same with Proton Drive, it tells me that's not possible because the folder has to be empty to initialize the sync process.

    Right now, I would need two separate folders with the same content, wasting disk space and bandwidth because all files would be synced twice.

  6. Proton Maps / Navigation

    Have a privacy centered navigation app for driving. Information can be stored securely but not used to sell more product or track your every movement by Google, Apple, or other options.

    I know having GPS active opens up a phone to this but at least it isn’t being stored by the companies at will.

  7. Select a Folder With Photos/Videos Currently In Proton Drive And Have Them Transferred Over To Photos And Remove Duplicates

    I have used Proton Drive to backup a lot of Photos. Google Photos also has a lot of my photos which I am trying to get away from. It would be nice to be able to transfer photos that I have in Proton drive over to Photos by selecting the exact folder to be transferred and have the option to remove it from the drive portion, It would also be great if it could recognize duplicate photos and suggest ways to clean up space in photos. The remove duplicates feature would allow me to move entirely away from Google Photos.

  8. 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)

  9. 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.

  10. 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

  11. Option to remove Windows Explorer integration

    The windows Explorer integration for Proton is pretty good overall - but still, I prefer to have my drive apps be as unobtrusive as possible.

    Is there any chance there can be a toggle in the settings of the Proton Drive desktop app to remove Explorer integration?

  13. Replace files in the 'sync queue' with the newer states

    While working on a file, when you save it, proton drive immediately syncs it, locking any future changes from the file. If you want to save the file (locally) again, you have to wait until the its previous save state is uploaded. I think this could be fixed by replacing files in the 'sync queue' with the newer states in the case that the file is updated.

  14. Improve sync - team up NextCloud etc..

    I am a paid user and it is so hard to backup on proton, there is no reason why proton has not upgraded their drive. i should be able to do everything that Next-cloud offers and more. My phone and any of my multiple linux distribution PC should be able to sync..... I SAID SYNC(not upload), with my devices running any software. also Proton needs to huge upgrade on security due the fact that my drive was hacked or the upload failed but i swear i have uploaded it multiple times and it took days to finish about 56gb and…

  15. Allow to download all data from photo and drive

    Recently I had to remove an address and all of its associated data, the issue is that downloading all of my data was painful, as a lot of the downloads took, a while, and the download often failed. Forcing me to manually select smaller folders, and download those, then merge them.

    As for photos scrolling through all photos and selecting each month, it appears as if there is no "select range" key binding.

    It would be useful in general to have a "take out" feature for both drive and photos.

  16. Create folder shortcuts (so you don't have to make a duplicate)

    In Google Drive, you can "Add Shortcut" of an existing folder so you don't have to duplicate folder content (you can enter the same folder from multiple locations). Similarly, macOS allows you to "Make Alias" of a folder, & in Linux you can create symlinks of folders. Would be great to be able to do this in Proton Drive!

  17. File Search

    Filename based Search functionality within Proton Drive...

    I don't necessarily mean searching for File-Content, this is difficult to achieve in a fully encrypted setting (albeit not impossible, if the indexing tool would run local or in a sand-boxed mode and the actual index database would be stored as a file on the actual encrypted proton drive account.... )

    But rather just a search for file name (even partial names etc...)

  18. Use QR code to share files/folders

    QR codes for sharing Proton Drive files/folder URLs. It would make sharing links from a desktop to phone MUCH easier. Not to mention safer. I'm using an online QR code generator. God only knows what they are doing with that data.

  19. Memories feature

    One part of Google Photos that I will miss is the "Memories" feature. Not the creepy cloud-based processing, but just the notification to scroll through some of my old photos.

    It doesn't have to be fancy, and you can play the same cheesy jingle each time!

    (Unless there's a workaround and I can use another app that can safely read local photos while Proton Drive backs them up securely?)

    Tap on menu file, choosing "Open with ..." , selecting appropriate application. That's all.
