  1. Partner with OnlyOffice or LibreOffice to completely replace Google Ecosystem

    Instead of making Proton Docs, Slides, etc. which take forever to make, just partner with a privacy based office suite like OnlyOffice to make everything easier.

  2. Move or Copy Shared Files/Folders to "My Files" without Download and Upload.

    In Drive Web or Desktop App, Files and Folders which have been shared to one Person (Shared with me Tab), should be able to be copied or moved to "My Files" Tab without the neccessity to download and reupload to/from a local Computer.

  3. Need more granular versioning options

    Currently, the Version History setting is global and applies to all files and folders equally. Instead, it would be helpful to be able to configure versioning at the folder or file level.

    For example, I could have a large file (e.g. a video) that I'm actively working on and revising. I don't want previous versions hanging around for months or years as they are just taking up space.

    On the other hand, I may have smaller, important documents whose revisions I want to keep for years.

    With the current system, I would need to set the global option to 10…

  4. Encrypt desktop application (lock / auto lock)

    Desktop application does not currently have lock ability. There should be a way to lock the drive. We should also have the ability to auto lock after a while.

  7. Protons Docs Increase File Size Limit

    I have some documents with a lot of images that I'd like to migrate to Proton Docs, and they far exceed the current limit. It'd be nice if the size of the docs could be only limited by how much Proton Drive storage I have left (which is hundreds of GB), instead of 25 MB per doc.

  8. rclone for photos

    Expose the "Photos" location to rclone. Perhaps allow the user to specify a custom folder name to synchronize photos to. Then rclone could be used to simply sync that specific folder.

  9. Support local encryption at rest

    Support storing Windows (and Mac when the time comes) files downloaded from Drive encrypted on the local disk. Then, support a virtual drive that presents the files as decrypted. Two examples with good user experiences are:

    1. Boxcryptor, which optionally supports folder and file name obfuscation.
    2. Cryptomator, which always forces folder and file name obfuscation.

    I personally prefer the former, but either one will be helpful.

  10. Proton Drive as storage location for ALL NextCloud Storage Needs

    Make Proton Drive directly link-able with NextCloud for ALL NextCloud storage needs. Photos, documents, contacts, mail, etc, etc.

    Currently running a personal instance of NextCloud on LINODE web based server....but Linode's US based storage is not as secure as Proton's and too expensive. I want the ability to create / edit / etc documents (built into NextCloud) and then SAVE the files within super secure Proton Drive. Is this do-able now? How?

    I REALLY want to leave Google Online docs and photos 100% and Proton may be my best bet. HELP

  12. Nix package for linux client

    The first step would be making a linux-compatible client (see https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932839-proton-drive/suggestions/45271456-linux-client).

    After that, making it into a nix package would be trivial.

  13. Shared with me Folder on Mobile app (iOS/Android)

    There's no Shared with me folder on the iOS app, if it's on Web it should be on the mobile app too.

    It would be great to have it as well in the Finder on Mac, for now it just shows my own files but not the ones shared with me

  15. Map Viewer for Geo / Location Data in files

    This is similar but more focused than the idea here: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/945460-general-ideas/suggestions/45229390-proton-maps

    This is more about a 'viewer' of files on Proton Drive to open a map UI of items within Drive that have a geolocation. Creating layers/adding geometry (like a google mymaps) is not part of this idea but could be part of roadmap.

    1. View geotagged photos from an album in a map view; or to add/change location of photo (via pan/zoom from the photo view)

    2. Open geo-files in a map view, that is kml, gps tracks, sheet with lat/long, shapefile, geojson... open standards.

    Again, the focus of this idea…

  18. Google Docs to Proton Docs importer

    It would be great to have a tool to import Google Docs into Proton Docs. A sort of Easy Switch that would "translate/migrate" the Google Docs format into Proton documents. Without such tool, none of my old Google Docs can be used in Proton Docs.

  19. Be able to log in with more than one account at the same time in Proton Drive.

    Be able to log in with more than one account at the same time in Proton Drive.
    I mean that the program allows you to do that in at least 2 accounts (ideally in more accounts) But to start with 2 would be fine. The fact of being able to work, for example: with the files from your home account and your work account at the same time. And thus be able to work in the same way as it is done now but with the difference of working with these 2 folders at the same time. Since currently you…

  20. photo desktop

    Hello!

    These features are VERY essential for a minimum usefulness of the app...

    • Photo folder (so far only available on web view - why???) should be synced with the desktop versions on a "Photo" folder
    • We must be able to move the photos to Drive folders
    • Syncing of the backed up photos in a folder-to-folder system, where a folder named as the original source is created inside the "Photo" folder
    • Like many other ideas posted here: albuns organization, filters by date / creation / etc.

    Thanks!
