Delete Multiple Pre-Selected Items in Trash without Deleting Everything.
Allow CTRL+Click and Shift+Click to select individual items and/or a range of items. Then click the Trash Can Icon (currently not there!) to delete only the selected items and keep the rest.
Otherwise, doing one at a time with verification is tedious.5 votes -

Many services are now accepting crypto payments.
As Proton always provides a Crypto Wallet, It's the reasonable next step.5 votes -
Add photo to album without opening the album
Currently, when I select photos and then add them to an album, this album is opened. So, when I want to add further photos to the album, I need to go all the way back to the photo overview and find the place I left. It would be great if there was an option to add photos to an album while staying exactly where one is in the photo library.

Allow users to manually reorder photo albums
Please add the option to manually reorder photo albums in Proton Drive.
At the moment, albums appear in a fixed order, but users should be able to arrange them freely by dragging and dropping them. This would make it easier to organize the album gallery according to personal preferences, projects, dates or themes.
It would also be helpful if the custom order were preserved across devices.

Change document or folder owner
I would like the ability to change the owner of a shared file or folder. Obviously only the owner should be able to make that change.

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…4 votes -
non‑E2EE Linux client for Proton Drive
Your blog says a Linux client is in progress, but Proton Drive cannot be taken seriously as a core product until it exists. Linux is a first‑class environment for many of your most technical users, and the absence of a native client is a fundamental gap.
If E2EE is the bottleneck, ship a non‑E2EE Linux client now with explicit warnings. Engineers know how to encrypt locally — Cryptomator, rclone, and similar tools already solve this. pCloud has used this model for years. Delivering a functional client early gives you performance data, crash reports, and real‑world usage patterns instead of waiting…

Photo backup available in Windows explorer
Photos that are backed up to the cloud should be available as all the other folders in windows explorer. I want to organize them and in the web browser interface, you can't drag and drop. Using the web interface make large amounts to organizing into folders very time consuming. Please make the photo folder available in windows explorer so the images can be moves easily.

Would be nice if you could autocomplete commands and file paths by pressing tab.
The feature should be available on common shells such as bash, zsh, and fish.

Universal permalink
As a Proton Drive web user, I want a single, permanent “universal” link per file that is scoped to “anyone with existing access,” so that:
- users who already have access can open the file directly via the link,
- users who do not have access are shown a clear option to request access from the owner,
- I can use the same link myself as a fast internal shortcut (for example from a Notes or Todo app).Acceptance criteria:
1. Each file page provides a “Copy universal link (anyone with existing access)” action.
2. The link is permanent and…4 votes -
Table Cell Vertical Text Alignment
For Proton Docs
When a table is inserted, it would be great to have the ability to adjust the vertical alignment of text so it can be at the top, bottom, or center of the cell. Helps with cleaner formatting, especially when each of the cells contain varying amounts of text.

Sync Symlinks in Proton Drive on Unix/MacOS
Currently it seems that if a symlink is created in the Local Proton Drive Folder, it is ignored. It would be useful if the symlinks were followed and synced. This would allow to sync files anywhere on the filesystem to Proton Drive by symlinking from the file to the local Proton Drive Folder.
Use cases include syncing files that need to be in a certain locations, like local configurations (bashrc and similar) without having to copy them each time they change.

esign, digital signatures
Shooting for the moon here, but if Proton Drive could include some sort of electronic signature feature to send documents to folks by email (within or outside Proton) to request a legally valid signature (think DocuSign), that would take care of a big need for professionals using Proton for their practice.

Proton Docs - Auto shift-enter on new line
It would just be nice to not have the doc add all the extra space when I press enter. I'd much rather press enter twice if I want that. This currently genuinely doesn't feel good to use.

First-class support for XLSX files in
CURRENT SITUATION
Currently, when opening an Excel file from Proton Drive in Proton Sheets, a conversion takes place that makes a copy of the file with filetype 'application/vnd.proton.sheet'.
That means you now have two different versions of the same file, one of which can only be edited in Proton Sheets and one of which can be used in any other spreadsheet application.SUGGESTION
I am aware that Proton Sheets can be exported back to the XLSX format, but I want to request first-class support for XLSX files without conversion. Reasons include:
- Being able to edit my XLSX files locally…4 votes -
Page numbering and layout
Please add the page numbering to the docs app, as well as the layout possibilities (chapters, titles..). I personally use it for administrative documents, but also to write a novel!

Better UX for sharing link
I share files or folders with an expiration. It gives me better control, and I won't end up with dozens of shared folders without a clue about their purpose.
I would appreciate the following features:
- expiration date available in the first dialog form, I have to open another dialog now
- ability to preset default expiration date to a certain number of days from today (60 days fits me the best)4 votes -
save as conversions that do not need download
Proton docs can be downloaded in various formats. But you cannot save to the drive in those formats, you have to download and then upload, risking leaving the document on an insecure drive!
Add a "save as" feature which works like download, but saves to the drive.
