Archive photos on the Library function of Proton Drive
Is a killer feature for my use case and it's the possibility of selecting a photo and send it to a separate album called Archive that hides it from my photos timeline to keep private when I'm sharing my gallery to others.
I could access the Archive with a separate password or also just reusing FaceID or any other authentication method.

Proton Docs file history should not count towards maximum file size limit of 25MB
When working with several larger images into a Proton document you can quickly run into the file size limit of 25MB.
Going back and deleting said pictures is also of no help, as they are still kept in the document history, and now any further changes of that file are held ******* by said history. Not even rollbacks to previous versions are possible.There are currently two ways around this.
1: Create a copy of the document (and re-share any links, in case of a shared document)
2: Disable all file history for everything in Proton Drive.Option 1 is…

File name conflict errors should be shown on web app
Sometimes when creating a new file, especially Proton Doc file, the file name actually conflicts with Windows but Proton Drive web app doesn't tell.
Only until I saw it in Proton Drive desktop, I knew about naming conflict.
For example, I made a file name similar to this with slashes on Proton Drive web app:
CPU/GPU CostsI know that clash only happens on Windows, not Linux (limits this slash only and not other chars), but maybe a small alert on web app should be nice.

Longer expiration data period when sharing a Proton Drive file
Maybe there is some technical obstacle that You do not offer longer link expiry date when sharing a file? It seems to be just a few months maximum, while I would like to set the expiry like 2 years from now. Ideally also ticking option to also delete the file once the period is over.

Use a more widely known document format (.docx, .odt…) instead of .protondoc
I recently tried to edit a document offline with OnlyOffice from my Proton Drive folder (synced with my account), and to my surprise I found that the document wasn’t supported because its format was .protondoc !
Moreover, when I save a Word document as .docx on my computer and then edit it online, a second document is created in the .protondoc format, and again it can’t be edited with OnlyOffice because the format isn’t recognized !
Why doesn’t Proton use a more common format? Is this a constraint of end‑to‑end encryption?

Mutual proton drive
I have a Proton Duo subscription shared with my wife, and I’d like to know if it’s possible to have a single, mutual Proton Drive that both of us can access and manage — rather than using shared folders between two separate Drives.
In other words, can we have a truly common Drive space for both accounts within the Duo plan, where we both have equal ownership and access rights?7 votes -

app specific password for programatic drive access
I am using MFA to access Proton services.
I am testing Proton Drive as a backup solution, using rclone to send nightly deltas of a folder to the drive. This needs MFA, though, so it breaks after a while.
Could you add app-specific--passwords so that this can be achieved, without using MFA for this, but still keeping MFA for normal access?Thank you.

Allow to import photos from a synced folder
The new landed import photos feature in Proton drive only allows importing photos that are not in a synced folder. This doesn't make sense, as photos are stored separately in Proton Drive. Therefore, not allowing the import of such folders makes it impossible to move photos from the Documents Drive folder to the photo section.

Show thumbnails for offloaded image and video files on Windows
Currently when files are offloaded on Windows, there's no image or video thumbnails generated, so you either need to use the web app, or need to re-download entire folders of files back to the PC just to be able to find a specific file.
It would be much better if these worked like OneDrive and iCloud Photos where the files are stored online-only but are still able to generate local thumbnails for quick and convenient browsing.
Ideally this should also support modern image and video formats (AVIF/AV1, HEIF/HEVC, WEBP etc) as well as just the basic JPG and PNGs as…

Allow hiding the user email in Proton Docs to avoid leaking personal data
When sharing a document created in Proton Drive with another person, if the Proton user makes a comment, the original email of the account e.g., user@protonmail.com is leaked. This is a problem in my view, particularly when an inbox has multiple aliases and domains and the user does not want to leak their personal Proton email. Please allow users to hide this information altogether when sharing documents or at least choose which alias to display. Thanks.

Improvement in Proton docs and version history
I love how Proton Docs automatically keeps a version history of every change we make to a document. It would be great to give users the option to set the time interval for creating new versions for example, after each edit, after 1 minute, after 2 minutes, and so on.
Currently, when I start a new document, each word I type generates a separate version. This quickly becomes overwhelming, making it hard to scroll back to a useful point in the history. While frequent versioning makes sense during focused editing such as correcting a document someone else sent or making deliberate revisions, it feels unnecessary…

Need the ability to add comments to photos in shared albums
I am using Google Photos to share family albums and I am trying to determine if I can replace Google Photos with Proton Drive (I am a Proton Duo user). One very useful feature for the users I am sharing the albums with is the ability to add comments. In fact, this would be a show-stopper if it is not possible. The reason is that some of the photos are pretty old (scans of standard prints) and lack details. Being able to add comments is a great and simple way of sharing and improving the information we have about some…

Navigator / ToC sidebar for Proton Docs
I heavily use Proton Docs.
However, when a document gets larger, navigation within the document is a real pain.
My request: add a sidebar or something similar that is structured by headings and allows quick navigation within a document (similar to Navigator in Word like a ToC).7 votes -

File management paradigm change?
As a curious, sometimes geek with nerd outbursts, user exploring and using newest techologies since 40 years
I'd like ProtonDrive to consider:
- merging all types of documents (office, audio, video, etc) into a single environment (as opposed to the Documents/Photos distiction)
- allow the user to chose to expose these documents to the OS
- providing labels/tags/keywords management (add, remove, batch rename)
- integrate these labels/tags/keywords within the files metadata without changing their modification date (as opposed to libraries systems strongly linked to products and service providers)
- providing views management (add, remove, rename) based on the aforementioned labels/tags/keywords…7 votes -
High Importance: Sign Documents Feature Inside Drive and Shared Folders
Hoping to have the ability to turn documents into PDFs that can then be signed, a signing feature on the drive between shared documents. We enjoy using Proton and believe it is the future for encryption standards. We are team Proton, please help us help you grow! -

Proton Docs: Integrate Lumo + Increase Docs file size!
It would be nice to ask Lumo while working inside Docs to run spellchecks or change the tone of your text etc.
i was working on a document that has alot of images, and suddenly i get an error that the file was getting too large and i couldnt edit anymore.
It seems that Proton Docs has a limit per document of 25mb, seems a bit low compared to competitors? Now i have to split this thing up in multiple parts.
I dont understand why there would be a size limit when Word is practically unlimited, especially for paying users.
