GDrive to Proton Drive Server-2-Server file transfer [not just pix]
Hi
I looked and did not see anything regarding this, thus my feature request.
I currently have several GB's of files on my Giggle 😃 Drive account [paid] and would love to be able to permanently move/transfer all those files directly to Proton Drive without downloading them to my laptop first and re-upping them to Proton Drive. A server to server xfer so to speak. I am not familiar with GDrive's API or policies on this so perhaps it's not possible.
If it's not then so be it. Lol.

Proton Docs New Features
Hello Proton Team,
I would like to request several document editing features in Proton Docs that would greatly improve usability and productivity:
Table cell merging and splitting, allowing users to create more complex and structured tables.
Column management tools, including the ability to insert, delete, resize, and adjust table columns more easily.
Page breaks, enabling users to control document layout and separate content across pages.
Section breaks, allowing different formatting, layouts, headers, footers, or page settings within the same document.These features are standard in many document editors and would make Proton Docs a much more capable alternative for professional…

Proton Driver (Create or Open Proton Docs/Sheets)
Proton Drive’s zero-access encryption and privacy architecture are outstanding, but the overall user experience around file creation and management needs refinement to match modern cloud workflow standards:
Streamlined File Creation & Standalone Access: Currently, creating or opening a Proton Doc forces the user through the full Proton Docs interface and document listing inside Drive rather than opening a focused, standalone document view directly. In comparison to platforms like Google Drive, where creating a file directly opens a clean editing interface, the current flow feels cumbersome and repetitive.
Native Support for Plain Text (.txt / .md) Files: At present, creating new…2 votes -
Be more specific about the files/folders that are syncing
Currently, on the Proton Drive app for Windows (and maybe for macOS too, I don't know how is it on that side), when using the file sync feature all the app tells you is "synchronizing". it's very vague, and there's not even an option to pause the sync. having it, plus maybe seeing which file is being uploaded and at what speed (just like Drive's web app), would improve the experience by a lot.

GoBD konformer Archivordner für Buchhaltung
Bitte schafft eine Funktion, mit der ich für meine Firma einen Ordner bestimmen kann, der als GoBD konformes Archiv genutzt werden kann. Damit ich dort für meine Buchhaltung meine Rechnung aus unserem ERP vollautomatisch ablegen kann. Die einmal abgelegte Datei darf nicht mehr veränderbar sein oder löschbarer für acht Jahre. Würde man eine Datei mit dem selben Namen dort speichern wollen, muss sie automatisch eine Version bekommen und die alte Datei muss bestehen bleiben. Damit man dem deutschen Finanzamt gerecht wird.

Dynamic Data Reference in Proton Sheets
Someone commented on the named range post - the data references need to be dynamic.
I use named ranges and cell references as I am building out sheets from scratch and later rearrange the layout to make it easier for others to use. However, every time I insert a row or column or move the data, the named ranges and/or cell references don't shift with the data.
Please fix this as the data loses its integrity the more the sheet evolves.

Select All, Floating menu, Unzip, File requests
Floating context menu on file selection
When a file is selected, it would help to have a floating menu with the main actions currently hidden under the "3 dots" menu, instead of having to open it every time. This would speed up the most common operations.Select All
A basic "Select All" option is missing and should be one of the first actions available in file management.Built-in Unzip
Ability to extract .zip files directly within Drive, without having to download, extract locally, and re-upload.File Request
A feature to generate a link that allows others to upload files directly…2 votes -
Add a 100 GB Proton Drive plan
Proton Drive Plus currently starts at 200 GB, but I think a 100 GB option would be a useful middle ground for users who need more than the free plan but don't need 200 GB.
A lower-priced 100 GB tier would make upgrading more accessible and give users more flexibility in choosing a plan that fits their storage needs.

Proton Docs Rename File With Double Click
Currently to rename a file you have open:
- Click the files name which opens a drop down,
- Select "rename document" option.
- Edit the name
I think double clicking the file name should immediately open this edit section instead.
A simple ease of use feature which is common practice for open documents.2 votes -
proton drive seamless sync
Proton Drive's desktop and mobile apps are behind where they should be in 2026. The setup complexity and sync speed would have been acceptable a decade or more ago, but they're now well out of step with what people expect from cloud storage.
The underlying problem is that two different products have been bundled into one: computer file sync and phone photo backup. Neither is done well as a result.
The fix would be per-folder sync configuration. Let me nominate any folder on any device and choose its behaviour: upload only (backup), download only (retrieve), or two way (sync). Photo…

Refresh Button (Manual Sync)
When I'm waiting for a new document to sync from the cloud, I sometimes pause/unpause syncing to force discovery of the new item. A "refresh" button could be added that simply checks the sync state when pressed.
Edit: I'm referring to the desktop app.

Feature Request - Storage Cleanup Tools for Proton Drive
It would be valuable to add built-in cleanup tools for Proton Drive, such as:
Sort files/folders by size
Quick view of largest files
Bulk delete or archive options for large items
This would make it much easier to identify and manage space-consuming files without manual investigation.Thank you for considering this!
Best regards

Feature Request - Per-Service Storage Usage Breakdown
Dear Proton Team,
It would be very helpful to have a visual breakdown showing how much storage each service uses individually (Mail, Drive, Calendar, etc.) within the total account quota. Currently, we only see the combined usage, which makes it harder to identify where space is being consumed.
Thank you for considering this improvement!
Best regards,
