  2. 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 Costs

    I 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.

  3. 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.

  6. Add photo's on our computers/ desktop apps

    It would be great if we could view and organize photos on our computers/Windows (and other operating systems), using desktop apps. This would allow us to quickly view, reorganize, and use photos (taken with our phone) on our computers. For example, to create photo albums, presentations, slide show's, add them to mail or photo reports on existing situations, and so on.

  8. Drive: Search within files

    The search should be able to search within files. Make that optional because it will take much longer - and probably add a small progress bar for this.

  10. Missing Core Spreadsheet Feature: Internal Sheet-to-Sheet Hyperlinks

    Proton Sheets is currently missing a basic, foundational spreadsheet feature that has existed in Excel and Google Sheets for well over a decade: internal hyperlinks between sheets in the same spreadsheet.

    Right now, it is not possible to create a clickable link in one sheet that navigates to another sheet within the same file.

    Let me be absolutely clear about why this is a serious problem:

    I routinely work with large, complex spreadsheets containing dozens to hundreds of sheets. These are not “toy” spreadsheets. They are operational frameworks, logs, dashboards, and documentation systems that must live inside a single file.

  12. Sheet: Choose encoding when import

    We cannot choose file encoding when importing CSV file.

    Because of I'm Japanese user, I often use Shift JIS encoding for CSV file.

    There are many services that issues CSV as Shift JIS encoding in Japan.

  14. Share file, but don't allow download or screenshot

    Changes to the share file in proton drive that allows people to view, but not download a file to retain ownership of data but allow others to verify.

    Could be useful when sharing identity documents, contracts etc, but you don't necessarily want others to keep a copy of the data.

    Would also be nice to use some form of browser DRM protection to prevent screenshots as well.

  15. photo album sharing

    Share photo albums via link with non-Proton users.

    This feature exists for Proton drive files, which is why I still need to use proton folders to share photos with friends who are not on Proton Drive.

    The whole idea of photo albums is to share them. That this feature is omitted is a deal-breaker for my adoption of photo albums.

  16. Proton Docs or Proton Notes with handwriting input support

    There is no real great privacy respecting note taking or journaling app out there that supports handwriting input using Apple Pencil or some other stylus. Most don’t support handwriting at all, including Proton Docs and Standard Notes, and the few that do aren’t great from a privacy standpoint. Most rely on Dropbox or iCloud.

    Journaling or sketch writing is an inherently hand written process. Even jotting down notes in meetings.

    It would be wonderful to see Proton adopt support for inputting handwritten test using an Apple Pencil/other stylus. This could be where Proton Docs/Notes acts as a blank canvas like…

  17. Simple way to clone a template folder with subfolders in Proton Drive online

    I’m running a solo physiotherapy practice on Linux (Zorin OS) computers and Android tablets, and I rely on Proton Drive to store all patient documentation in a structured folder hierarchy.

    It would be incredibly helpful to have a built‑in “Clone Template Folder” feature that lets users duplicate a pre‑configured folder (with subfolders, permissions, and naming conventions) for each new patient and then personalize it. This capability would streamline onboarding new cases and keep the workflow consistent, especially for users who don’t have a native Linux desktop client and must work primarily through the web interface.

    Implementing such a feature—perhaps via a right‑click…

  18. Allow Photos in Proton Drive to have their date overwritten

    Reason for this is Proton Drive sometimes gets the dates wrong from correctly dated photos. If like in google photos, we can overwrite the date if can fix the sorting of your images

  20. Granular backups

    we need ability to ignore files by type, name, or if they're in a specific directory that can be matched by name or some kind of regex. it is really annoying that some games have shader caches in Documents folder and it keeps backing these up- filling my trash can with a Terabyte of poo that I have to clean to recover my space.
