1. Proton "Drop" To Accept Secure Files Without Relying on Sender Email

   Would love for a feature to reserve an area in the Drive for a person with a link, auto-expiration, and password to "drop" files to an upper size limit in.

   I don't like how people with email services outside of Proton or likewise send me things using their email without password protection or expiration.

   There is no way to enforce that the file be deleted from their email. They might just plain forget or not know how to do it fully.

   Sending them a link to DROP a file into my Drive will let them upload directly to a secured environment which I can then destroy the link to after the file is received.

   Many people are adverse to creating a Proton account for this file submission if they are a business and need the domain, etc.

2. Swipe up to see photo details

   When I view a photo inside the Proton Drive gallery, I want to swipe up to see details of the photo (date, camera infos, location) and a map that shows the location of the photo. It could look similar to iCloud.

   My client: Proton Drive Android

4. Add Files via Email

   Previously, I was using SecureSafe, which had a useful feature: it allowed us to add a file to our drive simply by sending an email.

6. I'd like comment/tag functions for files/photos/videos on the drive

   I'd like more options for personalization and organization of files. I'd like to add hyperlinks to sources. Tags for general ideas, like "cats" without needing that to be in the title of the file.

7. Uploading in the iOS application

   It's unacceptable and extremely annoying that you can only select and upload a maximum of 10 files at a time on iOS. Android offers so many more options. Please change this urgently. It's such a huge hindrance.

8. Make iOS/iPadOS Drive app more powerful

   The iOS/iPadOS Drive app is fine, but I find myself often gravitating towards the web app as it’s more power user friendly. I can quickly jump to any folder by expanding the folder tree, which doesn’t exist at all on mobile. Uploads are much more reliable whereas they often fail in the mobile app.

9. Support .tiff (Tagged Image File Format) preview in Photos

   Currently there is no support for .tiff files in Proton Drive photos, adding a support for that seems important because it is very popular amongst graphic artists, the publishing industry, and photographers.

10. Allow Proton Drive to use my smartphone's office app

    Other drives like Onedrive and Google Drive give the option to use the smartphone's own office apps to open documents, spreadsheets, slides, etc...
    I really miss that as I cannot open my sheets, for example, unless I download them. And if I make a change in them, then I have to upload it to the Proton Drive afterwards.
    Sorry, but just to be clear. In those other drives like Onedrive, you do not need to download the sheet in other to open it and if you edit the sheet, then Onedrive automatically replace the older version as you save the edited sheet.
    If you implement this, it would also release the pressure on the enhancement of Proton Docs, as users could just use some other office in their phone like Word and Libreoffice as you work more on Proton Docs and (I hope) Proton Sheets.

11. Local cache

    Other cloud providers have a local cache that you can set the size of, that just retains your most recently opened files so you're not having to re-download them every time you open them. I realise you can set specific files or folders to be available locally, but it's a pain having to do this when you have lots of different files (drawing files is what I'm thinking of) with large (GB) attachments. With a cache they're just available while actively working with them, and then they eventually get pushed back off the local drive when you're no longer opening them again.

12. Ability to overwrite a file

    Currently if editing a file in Drive with an external application (Libre Office, AndrOpen Office, etc) there is no way to save the file. I have to "Save As", delete the original and rename the new one. Contacted support and was given the usual "This is how it is, it may be fixed in a future version¨. I say this is a bug that should have been caught in alpha testing and frankly I'm shocked that I'm the first to mention this here.

13. File tags, tag views, and at-rest encryption

    I'm currently a user of both Proton Drive and Standard Notes (SN). Both products serve different needs, but I can envision a world in which the best aspects of SN are merged into Proton Drive.

    A big weakness of Proton Drive's local file sync functionality comes from the fact that all files must be sync'd and that there is no opportunity to keep them encrypted at-rest. While users can certainly introduce a separate encryption/decryption step to the process of manipulating files, this opens up a window of vulnerability in which any locally running application with shell access can read the file; this is clearly unacceptable for sensitive data.

    Secondly, Proton Drive's reliance on a strict hierarchical file structure fails to leverage its cloud-based architecture to deliver a flexible user experience in which files can be organized and accessed via multiple contexts (i.e. just as you can add the same photo to multiple albums, you should be able to access the same file via different contexts). While users can introduce a separate file tagging step to the process and construct views using links, this is cumbersome, the implementation is platform-specific, and it introduces multiple additional points of failure for the user.

    I propose a multi-stage solution to address these shortcomings (these would be implemented in sequence until we have the final solution):
    1. Introduce the ability to exclude some files from the sync process, keeping them remotely encrypted and only accessible via the web client (this protects sensitive data from being accessible locally by bad actors)
    2. Introduce the ability to define tags, apply those tags to files, and define tag views (logical combinations of tags) that can be sync'd as a virtual view (e.g. "/My 2025 Documents/" is a view that captures the combination of tags "format/document" and "year/2025")
    3. Introduce the ability to specify a secondary encryption key to keep files encrypted at-rest even if they are sync'd; this then leads into...
    4. Introduce a native client that offers both local and remote file browsing, file management, and document editing and also supports tags, tag views, and secondary encryption/decryption for local files (i.e. the singular "Proton Drive" app in which you manage and access all of your files, tags, and views)

    If these features are implemented, they would neatly bridge the gap between Proton Drive and Standard Notes:
    - the low-level sync mechanism would continue to operate as expected
    - files could be part of multiple views / contexts (or not be part of any)
    - security would be maintained at-rest for sensitive data
    - document creation and editing could be managed from a native application that has access to both local and remote files

    I know this proposal encompasses multiple features, but I felt it was important to present them all at once in order to portray a complete and functional end-state.

    Thank you for reading.

14. Proton Docs: Virtual Collection or Notebook

    In the Proton Docs app, enable users to add docs to collections. A collection ...

    (1) ... provides a list view of all its docs (irrespective of their actual location within the Drive folder structure), and
    (2) ... can be opened and edited in a single browser tab, e.g. by displaying each doc as a page (creating something like a notebook).

    Use case:

    I maintain individual 'Overview' documents for topics such as: bank accounts, various insurances, summer holiday each year, etc.

    Obviously, these documents are in separate folders within Proton Drive (alongside related materials like invoices).

    Now, I’d like the ability to group these overview documents thematically for easier browsing, comparing and editing.

    (Optional)
    Let Lumo answer questions based on the content within such a collection.

15. Fix the Disk Usage in Proton Drive

    The usage estimate in the web application of proton drive is still buggy. It shows much higher than what I have in my drive. I saw a reddit post about this that was posted 3 years ago, I don't know if it is already fixed and is an issue with my side of the application.

18. Support hard links in Drive for file access from multiple locations

    Similar to the concept of hard links on file systems (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_link) it would be useful to have files that can be accessed from multiple locations in Drive that all point to the same underlying storage. This makes it economical to organize information hierarchically where a file might be conveniently accessed from multiple locations.

19. PIN/Password (instead of a long password) in Proton Drive Windows apps (like the Proton Pass app)

20. The file viewer adjustable width to fit the window to make the text more readable

    When you view a .txt file in a ProtonDrive (meaning when for example someone access it via public sharing link), it is better readable if the lines are not too wide (as it is currently), but when the .txt file contains for example a code or a log entries, then the too narrow viewer makes the file very hard to read, so you end up sharing such files using different service than Proton (which is bad).

    I think that the width should be adjustable and by default made wider to fit/fill whole window. I am using Firefox browser.
