  1. Duplicate a document in Proton Drive...

    Literally, the ability to duplicate a file doesn't exist on right click.. that's just so wrong to me. The only way to do it, is to open the file itself and make a copy from there. Let me do it from folder view.

  2. Feedback Request: Enhanced PDF Export Feature for Proton Docs

    Dear Proton Docs Team,

    I am writing to provide feedback regarding the PDF export functionality within Proton Docs.

    My feedback pertains specifically to the current PDF export method. It appears that the "Export to PDF" option currently relies on the browser's native "Print to PDF" feature. While this offers basic functionality, it introduces an unprofessional element into the exported documents: the inclusion of the document's URL in the footer of every page.

    This behavior is particularly problematic when documents are intended for professional use, client presentations, or formal sharing. The presence of browser-generated headers and footers, especially the URL, detracts…

  3. QNAP NAS Integration

    Ich verwende ein NAS von QNAP dass ich gerne zum Teil auf Proton Drive sichern bzw synchronisieren möchte. Leider gibt es bis jetzt keine Möglichkeit einen Sicherungsauftrag im QNAP NAS zu erstellen. Daher würde ich um eine Integration von Proton Drive im QNAP HSB wünschen.

  4. Make Photos visible as a top-level folder in My files

    This might be a quick functionality win for a relatively small amount of coding...

    From an Android perspective...

    (a) Make the photos (files) created and managed by the "Photos" section of Drive visible as a special top level sub-folder of the "My Files" area.

    (b) In the "My Files" view enable copying/moving between "Photos" and "My Files".

    This keeps these actions in the cloud and allows photos uploaded to Drive "My Files" as files (ie, on android, "shared" with Drive from another app), to be later moved to "Photos". No time take downloading, uploading etc.

  5. Selective photo backup

    Currently all photos are automatically backed up when using the feature. I would like the option to select which photos I think should be backed up when I've made some photos during the day.

  6. "Incomplete" Proton Sheets viewer

    A complete Proton Sheets would be nice, yet a simple viewer for sheets (.ods, .xls, etc) would be enough for me 30% of the time
    An "incomplete" sheet-editor (no calc needed in the first place) might be another simple solution until we have Proton calcit spreadsheets.

  7. Zotero for Proton Docs

    It would be great if there was a way to use Zotero with the new Docs in Proton Drive, similar to the existing Google Docs plugin.
    The ability to connect one's bibliographic reference database from Zotero would greatly facilitate the management of references in scientific and other publications.
    This is a well-known request from the community that uses both Proton Docs and Zotero : https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/117432/plug-in-for-proton-docs
    Thank you for considering this proposal.

  8. Separate forums for Docs / Sheets / Photos

    I reviewed all 34(!) pages of Proton Drive suggestions, for possibly making a suggestion on core Proton Drive functionality (user groups)... it is too much preparation before making a suggestion.

    I propose to create 3 new forums, for Docs, Sheets and Photos respectively. There is some amount of duplicate suggestions too.

  9. Support for GNOME/KDE online accounts

    Using the GNOME or KDE online accounts applet you should be able to use Proton services like Proton Mail, Proton Drive, Proton Pass etc. by logging in to your Proton account. Nextcloud and Google have support for both, and Microsoft is supported in GNOME enviroments. Posted this in the Drive section since currently only the Drive app and various other early access apps cannot run natively in Linux.

  10. My Files - Rename or Remove

    It looks like all files go into a top level directory called "My Files." Having a space in a path name can cause problems in some software tools and is more difficult to traverse on the command line. I would like to be able to rename the folder to something without a space, or eliminate it completely and manage the top level tree myself.

  11. Upload photos manually without backup

    It is no longer possible to manually upload photos via the mobile app. This can be done via the website and also with older versions of the app. Now, to upload photos, you must activate your phone's backup feature.

  12. Delete photos from within albums

    Currently, there is no way to delete a photo completely from within an album, you have to hunt the photo down in "all" to delete it. Would be nice if we didn't have to do this :)

  13. Proton Docs Bulk Download

    There needs to be an essential feature to bulk download Proton Docs into a readable file format of your choice. Allowing the downloader to choose a default file time (Adobe, Word, etc.). For purposes of downloading multiple files at once for ease and convenience. And for purposes of being able to do a convenience manual backup to a local hard drive.

  16. View videos on mobile

    Currently, to view videos stored on proton drive, you have to download them. An option is to allow apps like vlc, the ability to view/stream these videos, instead of having to download them.

  17. Plaintext and source files editing

    It would be great to be able view and edit plaintext or source files.

    • This one feature would allow to work with dozens of file formats in different programming/scripting languages, config files etc.
    • It would allow to create quick txt/md notes, where the full blown rich text editor is not required/desired.
    • It would allow to use Markdown note vaults, like those used by Obsidian.
    • It would allow to use tabular data in CSV format, which might cover some use cases for the (currently missing) spreadsheets feature.

    In the future, it would be also nice to have some syntax highlighting for…

  18. Add Commenter role to allow commenting without editing

    In addition to Editor and Viewer, it would be great to have a Commenter role available at the Doc and folder level, as in Google Drive.

    I'd love to allow collaborators to comment on, but not edit, any Proton Doc in a shared folder.

  19. Multi Account Sync

    A multi-account sync like InSync (multi-account sync software, because even Google hasn't managed to implement it) would be fantastic. I use a personal Proton account and a Proton business account, and I'd create another business account for a future project, but the deal-breaker is: I can only sync one account at a time.

    I always have to switch between accounts with logout and login, and that gets annoying after a while.

  20. Proton Drive on iOS Files app
