  1. Allow hiding the user email in Proton Docs to avoid leaking personal data

    When sharing a document created in Proton Drive with another person, if the Proton user makes a comment, the original email of the account e.g., user@protonmail.com is leaked. This is a problem in my view, particularly when an inbox has multiple aliases and domains and the user does not want to leak their personal Proton email. Please allow users to hide this information altogether when sharing documents or at least choose which alias to display. Thanks.

  2. Make Photos on Drive more like a Photo Viewer over File System

    The photos viewer is nice but it would still be good to view the photos as normal files as part of the file system and makes them syncable to computers.

    This would allow the user to manipulate the photos once they're in Proton Drive and limited to the UI. Once you upload them, it's almost like they're inaccessible to anything but viewing.

    It would also allow the user to organise/rename/edit the photos on their local computer rather than them being "hidden" away and only accessible in the UI. Although there are albums for organisation, folder based organisation would also be…

  3. Allow for copying (a selection of) files from one album view to: another album or a new album

    I want to be able to make an album with all the pictures of one broad category say: Animals,
    I make an album named: Animals. And i select and add all the pictures of animals to that Album.

    Now i want to make an album named: Cats.

    Then i want to be able to navigate to the: "Animals" Album and select from there all the pictures of cats.
    That makes it so i wont have to scroll so much trough my whole library on desktop while images load slow.
    I then already have a subcollection to choose from.

  4. One Way Sync For Proton Drive Computer Backup

    One of the primary reasons people are gravitating to Proton is for redundancy. There should be a way to set “two way sync” or “one way sync” for files and folders. Some files we would just like access to, while knowing we will not accidently move or delete them. I know that the “Trash” holds them for 30 days, but sometimes “fatal” errors can occur where files are totally lost, or corrupted. Additionally, in this vein, a new subsection of PD that functions as a read only computer or folder “backup” could solve this entirely. In conclusion, it would be…

  5. Shortcut Items (symbolic link or hard link) for Proton Drive

    I'm using Google Drive along with Proton Drive and find Proton Drive missing a feature that I think is useful.

    Google Drive has a feature called 'Create shortcut', it seems creating a symbolic link (not hard link) to another location.

    The problem is when organizing my data, sometimes I see that some items should be at different locations and they're the same things.

  7. Create a LUMO() Sheets function

    It’d be great to have a LUMO() spreadsheet function that could allow LLM processing of data using my Lumo Plus account, forcing the rendering of data in a spreadsheet-friendly way.

    For example:

    =LUMO(“daily average temperature in degrees Celsius for Ontario, Canada”)

    =LUMO(“top 5 LSE ticker symbols by market cap broken down by month for the last 10 years”)

    =LUMO(“number of new Proton products launched per year since the company was originally founded”)

    =LUMO(“today’s USD to EUR exchange rate with the date of exchange in the next column”)

  8. Find Content Across Spreadsheet Tabs

    Thank you for creating Spreadsheets! I would love to completely move over from Google Sheets but a couple of things are missing

    Enhance the Find feature
    Give us the option to:
    a) search across all tabs (not just the one active)
    b) search a specific range of text
    c) replace with text
    c1) allow us to either replace just 1 instance or all

  9. Support for the ODF file format when exporting and importing files to Docs and Sheets

    If you support and live open source, you should also support ODF and not just Microsoft's docx/xlsx.
    This makes the ecosystem even larger and allows for more flexible exchange.

  10. Mutual proton drive

    I have a Proton Duo subscription shared with my wife, and I’d like to know if it’s possible to have a single, mutual Proton Drive that both of us can access and manage — rather than using shared folders between two separate Drives.
    In other words, can we have a truly common Drive space for both accounts within the Duo plan, where we both have equal ownership and access rights?

  12. Headers, Footers, and Page Number Fields in Docs

    The ability to add headers, footers, and page numbers is important for preparing documents to submit to agents, publishers, contests, etc. or as school assignments. Please include the option to make the header and footer the same across all pages, and another option to make them the same across all pages except the first. The page number field needs to be separate, since each page number will be different. Thanks.

  14. Numbers with comma as decimal separator

    Could you let us know when you plan to enable, in Proton Sheets, the use of the comma as a decimal separator (e.g. 10,50) and the dot as a thousands separator (e.g. 1.000), as an alternative to the English number formatting currently in use?

  15. Named ranges in Proton Sheets

    I use named ranges extensively in any spreadsheet I create. They supercharge things like VLOOKUPs or data validation with a list of possibilities.

    Rather than entering a fixed cell reference, I create separate data source or menu option sheets and name the ranges. I then reference those ranges in my lookups or data validation. The data source lists can be modified, sorted, formatted, etc independently of the cells or tables that reference them, and it can be done without having to actually edit the lookup formula or data validation setting.

  17. Allow syncing to same folder location for multiple windows/macOs/linux user accounts

    I am working with two different user accounts on my windows machine. One for work, one for personal stuff. I want to use the Proton Drive for both accounts. Unfortunately when I tried to set up Proton Drive on the second account to sync with the same folder I got an error message instead:
    "Invalid sync folder: The folder must be empty before setting up sync"

    It wouldn't make any sense to choose a different folder and have everything twice on my computer

    Might be related to https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932839-proton-drive/suggestions/50135475-reconnect-desktop-app-to-existing-folder

  19. Navigator / ToC sidebar for Proton Docs

    I heavily use Proton Docs.
    However, when a document gets larger, navigation within the document is a real pain.
    My request: add a sidebar or something similar that is structured by headings and allows quick navigation within a document (similar to Navigator in Word like a ToC).

  20. Proposal to Add Version Control System (VCS) Support to Proton Drive

    Dear Proton Drive Development Team,

    I hope this message finds you in good time. First of all, I'd like to thank Proton Drive for the excellent services it offers. Your commitment to security, privacy, and ease of use, in particular, makes your platform indispensable for many users.

    However, I have a suggestion for a feature that could be added to Proton Drive for software developers: Version Control System (VCS) Support.

    Why Would VCS Support Be an Opportunity for Proton Drive?

    Version control has become a fundamental tool in the software development process. It allows teams to efficiently manage their projects,…
