  1. Ensure I can select and upload multiple files and folders at once, without having to upload files one by one (mobile)

    Currently the mobile app on IpadOS and Android doesn’t support the upload and of an entire folder of files or photos. It also doesn’t support an easy way to multi-select files via a swipe, like the Os prescribes.

    Use case: When I export photos from Lightroom I want to upload them in bulk. Currently, on the web, I can use the OS-Level multi-select behavior to launch an upload of an entire folder. On the apps this is not possible, especially on IpadOS this functionality is very rudimentary. Without this feature, the apps are useless for me.

  2. Adding photos manually from an Android phone to Proton Photos

    I later crop or delete photos on my phone, edit videos, but resynchronization does not work for changes to photos or videos, nor does synchronization for deletions, when I delete photos or videos in ProtonDrive, it is not deleted on my phone.

  4. Some way to know my work on a doc is saved

    I need to know that my changes have been saved before I close out of a document. Like neat little blue or green checkmark in a corner next to the word "Saved". Thanks.

  5. Proton Docs Download to .epub and change page colour

    There is an option to download to .pdf and .docx, having an option for e-readers would be helpdful.

    Even though it's been mentioned several times already, please have dark mode option for Proton Docs OR add the setting to change the page colour to black or another colour if someone wants.

  6. Implement Preview for Excel and PowerPoint

    A preview function for Excel and PowerPoint documents would be very helpful for Drive Online users. Often a glance at the file, e.g. work schedule, would be sufficient and no download/editing is necessary.

  7. Give editor, permission to reshare

    Currently, the sharing options are viewer or editor, but the editor can't re-share the file, which is a problem for our process.
    We would need an additional right to allow a user to re-share the file/folder.

  8. 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.

  9. Proton Drive CLI: Content-aware conflict detection for `filesystem upload -c merge`

    Implement content-aware (checksum-based) conflict detection in the merge mode so that byte-identical files are skipped, avoiding redundant uploads, storage duplication, and version history pollution.

    Problem

    The Proton Drive CLI (filesystem upload -c merge) resolves file conflicts by filename only, not by file content. This means byte-identical files (matching checksums) are re-uploaded as new revisions instead of being recognized as unchanged and skipped.

    Reproduction

    1. Set up a local directory ~/test with files
    2. Have corresponding /my-files/test on Proton Drive containing some identical files
    3. Run: proton-drive filesystem upload -c merge ~/test /my-files
    4. Files with identical SHA1 hashes are uploaded again…

  10. Scheduled Photo Backup: Let users choose WHEN to upload, not just IF

    The problem:
    Proton Drive currently backs up photos the moment they are taken (when on Wi-Fi). This sounds convenient, but in practice it creates a real issue: photos you take and delete within minutes — screenshots, temporary reminders, blurry shots — all get permanently backed up to the cloud before you have a chance to review them.

    For privacy-conscious users (which is exactly Proton's audience), this is counterproductive. You end up with a cluttered photo library full of junk you never intended to keep permanently.

    The request:
    Add a scheduled backup option in Settings → Photo Backup, with choices such…

  11. Photo caption or description

    Add ability to add a description or a caption as a separate piece of metadata for a photo. Possibly it could be part of Album metadata. The lack of this feature prevents me from migrating multiple albums from Google Photos.

    There are some suggestions to display captions or descriptions from EXIF stored with photos. Doing it that way would change the modified by date etc if a user wanted to change those; also updates would require de-encryption/re-encryption, adding challenges to de-duping and burdening the user flow. On the other hand if my suggestion is implemented, then those who wanted EXIF…

  12. Develop ZimaOS Integration

    In ZimaOS there is currently only the option to use OneDrive, Dropbox and Google for backup storage, but most users of this OS are highly privacy conscious and are likely the type of user interested in Proton Drive. Could you help add this feature so there is an available option?

  13. 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.

  14. Improve photo management

    I’m confident that this would be extremely helpful for everyone having the option to view all photos in the Proton Drive as a single folder. This would automatically make it possible to sync photos with a computer. For this to work, albums would need to be represented as a folder structure.

    Advantage:

    You can manage your photos on your computer very easily (searching, deleting, editing, sorting into albums, etc.).
    In my opinion, implementing this feature would not be very time‑consuming, since many of the required functions already exist.

  15. Collect and store more data for photos and video.

    Please collect and store more data with photos and videos. Be sure to keep the original date and not just the upload/edited date. Keep meta data like camera type, camera settings, location, and any tags or descriptions.

  16. Proton Sheets - Create dedicated apps

    It would be great if we had dedicated apps to see and edit our Proton Docs and sheets, just like Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets.
    This would simplify the way we can ineract with spreadsheets on mobile.

  17. "Not in Any Album" Header button

    Albums a great but there is no way to see which photos are in an album or not.
    Adding a selector in the header to filter and show the just ones not in an album would make it easier to manage organizing them

  19. Sheets - search cell notes

    I would like to be able to search cell notes.

    The "Find in sheet" search box currently searches cells' formulas and even their displayed values—e.g., a $ in a cell that has the Accounting format.

    Combining them into a unified search would be okay. An option to limit the search range to formula, displayed value, and/or note would also be nice.

  20. Backup on schedule

    Would be great to have an option to backup on schedule. Problem I have now is if a program does a lot of real time changes in a folder, then Proton Drive will go rampant with trying to save these changes to the cloud and often bug out because the files are in use etc.
