Proton Docs / collaboration suite
(folders and docs similar to GoogleDocs)
Proton mail needs some collaborative word processor and spreadsheet in a drive where people can securely work on it but only the person who owns the files can keep them and no one can download them or copy them.
Introducing Docs in Proton Drive – collaborative document editing that’s actually private: https://proton.me/blog/docs-proton-drive
With Docs you can:
- Write with privacy — Create and edit documents within Proton Drive, knowing your contents are only accessible to you and those you choose to share with.
- Share and invite anyone — Invite other users to view or edit your documents with a single click.
- Collaborate in real-time — Changes are reflected immediately, ensuring every contributor always sees the most up-to-date version.
- View cursors and presence indicators — See who else is viewing or editing the document, enhancing teamwork and communication.
- Leave comments and replies — Add comments to share feedback without editing the document. Comments are visible to all collaborators, keeping everyone in the loop.
- Import and export with ease — You can upload .docx documents, edit them, and download in various formats like .docx, .txt, .md, and HTML.

It would be great if we can also use Synology Cloundsync and Hyper Backup

Automatic synchronization with PC/Mac and iPhone/Android (similar to OneDrive) is essential for regular ProtonDrive use. One should be able to open and work with files (and directories) without extracting and saving back. It should be a "Drive" not a "Safe".

As has been noted, add a text editor, but include markdown support.
Easy win. -

I agree with others. Needs at the very least 20GB of storage for the cost. I'm not saying to give as much as Google but it needs to be close. Free accounts need to be at least 5GB. Not 500Mb... I can't even transfer over my personal email because 500MB is way too low. I have at least 2.5GB of emails/pictures.

Even the simplest alternative to Google Docs would be great, like being able to edit text and add bold, italic, underline.

Considering a collaboration suite, as the economic trend towards online applications rather than software or brick and mortar applications, Protonmail would be wise to prioritize a collaboration suite before other email providers corner the market by providing such niche features, which will in turn, make the email provider, who does provide those features, to be the most popular. Protonmail, or the email provider who provides these features, would be sure to learn from google's mistakes in assuming that all user's have the same electronic devices to access the web and thus, security measures to be implemented around the assumed electronic devices that all users have, which is not the case. It would be quite disappointment if Protonmail does not prioritize this thread, and other email providers see this opportunity to be successful in the new market that we currently see with the economic trend that we are heading towards to.

- Flexible but concise searching of files
- file tagging

Graphic file names: They are apparently converted from the actual file name to a hexadecimal string. All other files I have tried appear to retain their original file name.

5gb OF SPACE is really small with USB sizes being 32,64, 126, 254 etc. I know your not Google size but they offer 100GB for 9.99 a year. Syncs with all my devices. I use Boxcryptor which encrypts all those files. When do you expect to increase the size of storage?

The native text editor can also be used to create texf files to include in directories. These would include special notes, instructions, code, meta-data, and other material.

It will cost much work. Proton should better focus on its own core business.

Add the option to integrate with shared Word/Excel/PowerPoint - type platforms, securely. As an added feature of the ProtonMail suite, this would help current Google Suite and Microsoft 365 customers make the switch to ProtonMail.

It would be extremely useful to have an extremely bare-bones native text editor built into proton drive for updating the contents of .txt files.
This would help avoid the following scenario:
downloading the secure file, editing and saving the file, uploading the file, then having to clean up any local data cached during that process.Thank you!

IOS: Make it possible to export files to protondrive from the "Share" button, like we can do with ProtonMail.
