  1. Create dedicated photo app

    I know that the current plan is to fully integrate the photos feature into the Proton Drive app.
    However, I think it would be more logical to have a dedicated app for photos and one for documents in general. With combined apps, I fear that the app either gets overloaded or features will be missing because it would get too crowded otherwise. The photos app also needs wayy better performance than the current app (at least on android, the photos feature is very slow and misses a lot of crucial features, like face detection, editing or a map to show…

  2. Allow editing on Proton Sheets for Mobile

    Proton Sheets works well on Laptop/Desktop but when viewing via the Proton Drive app on mobile (I have a Google Pixel 6a) the message "Screen too small for editing"... is displayed.

    Flipping to landscape allows editing but the keyboard takes up the whole screen so it's obvious Proton Sheets was designed only only to be used on larger devices at this stage.

    Would be good if work were completed to enable editing and generally update the mobile app so that Proton Sheets is truly functional via mobile.

  4. Password protect specific folders if sharing account.

    It would be nice to have the possibility to assign a password to a specific folder. It's a good solution if you e.g. use your Proton Drive with other family members/friends what so ever.

  5. Preload photos in the background for quick viewing

    Viewing photos in proton drive is quite cumbersome as it takes a several seconds for each photo to load in high quality. Preloading the next few photos - and keeping the previous few in memory - would make the experience so much more enjoyable.

  8. Export all Drive data

    Please provide a feature like "Take Out" from Google, I constantly make backups of all my data to an offline drive, downloading everything manually is really time consuming.

  9. Move Photos between Folders and Photos Tab

    Hi, thanks for making Drive available for Linux. I use Fedora 39 KDE.
    I also use Photo backup via Android (Samsung S23)
    When I open all my files/photos in Linux web browesr, if I right click images, I can move to respective folders. As well as preview, move,rename, get link & delete.
    If I open the folder that uploads Photos, via Android, this option is not available. Only download, upload or delete.
    Perhaps this is a feature in the making?

  11. Edit file metadata (including photos)

    Don't need much. Currently, the Photos portion of Drive doesn't have any capability beyond view photo.

    I would like to be able to upload lots of photos and re-arrange them/fix metadata issues.

    Primarily, Windows has taken some of my old photos I've edited/restored and made the Date Modified to today's date, when the photo date taken was 1965. But when I upload to Photos, it appears as today's date.

    I should be able to easily go in and correct these mistakes.

  12. Preview and open .odt OpenDocument Text files

    Related to being able to export Proton Docs as .odt files (https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932839-proton-drive/suggestions/48607370-proton-docs-download-to-odt-feature), it should be possible to preview and open .odt OpenDocument Text files in Proton Docs. Many people choose OpenDocument files as a free and open source alternative to MS Word and Google Docs files. It’s the default file format in LibreOffice, Nextcloud Office, and Collabora. It’s the option that people turn to when they’re tired of being overcharged by Microsoft to open or write a document. It’d be invaluable to have support in Proton Docs for these files.

  15. Require 2FA and password before accessing Proton Drive in Windows Explorer

    I would like the addition of an option in the Settings menu.

    If this option is checked, data 'at rest' in the Proton Drive is encrypted and unusable in a Windows computer by default, on each startup. Only after entering the Proton password and 2FA does the Proton app unlock, decrypt all files and make read/write possible.

    To clarify, it could still sync files while in 'encrypted' mode from the cloud to on-premise, but always encrypted first. And usable upon unlock.

    Then when the user actually wants to do something, they can enter credentials and decrypt their Proton Drive. Kind…

  16. Delete phone photos after upload

    Option to delete uploaded photos from phone

    Just uploading pictures is not enough if I need to check and delete the pictures by hand. There should be the option to one-click delete uploaded pictures or do that automatically after a certain time.

  17. Rsync compatibility

    Enable rsync compatibility with Proton Drive to allow Linux users to sync files and directories for cloud backup. This should be a core feature of any cloud storage solution and makes Proton an unappealing ecosystem on Linux.

  18. more space! we should have the option to have 1TB minimum or even up to 4TB.

    500GB is nowhere near sufficient.
    I want the privacy and security proton drive has, but it should really be 1TB at minumim, and we should have the option to add more.
    Way more.

  19. Speed Improvements For Photos

    The Photos Feature is pretty cool. I don't do much with my photos, and I'm so close to just switching to it as my primary photos app (Just use it as a backup right now). However, the very slow speed of the photos loading when scrolling through is just unusable. I don't know what exactly causes it to be slow, but my guess would be the encryption. Perhaps use a faster standard like Ente does. Thank you for your time!
