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.

Symmetrically encrypted emails to non-proton users expire. After the expiration, I will not be able to reference the content of those emails.
I need to be able to use an API to fetch and store these emails into my own cryptsetup encrypted drive so that I can still reference the emails in the future while keeping them air-gapped and secure.

P.s We also need a Open Source End to End Internet Bookmarks just like pocket so we can save our websites privately super important and then make everything work together with the proton mail, proton storage and internet bookmarks including the productivity and alert tools!

Open Source End to End Cloud Storage just like Google Drive. Also Calender's and Reminders including Productivity and Organization Tools like Google Mail but with unlimited band-with and other privacy and security tools. I would pay 20 a month for that.

I vote to only focus on email.

I'm in the middle of moving away from Google (gmail/gdrive) and this is what I miss.
Perhaps they could add this as an option for paid members. And if they do, they might as well look at a 'price for lifetime'.

Cloud document storage would be awesome! Please look at introducing this for paid customers like me :)

Openmailbox offers 1GB of owncloud server. Something like that in protonmail would be nice :D

This would be so great. I don't want to store my files with any of the big guys. But I would trust ProtonMail.

Can you offer us a cloud-storage like hotmail (onedrive) does?

If you guys are going into a storage solution, you gotta have two priorities that many other solutions have missed, in order to make it viable and compete Dropbox.
1- Selective Sync
2- Sync blocks that have changed, so bandwidth is saved instead of having to reupload the whole file. Also resuming sync for partially uploaded files for those with limited upload speeds.Plus ofc encryption and a beautiful mobile app

I was looking for a option where I wanted to have my little privacy with my mails and contacts and Proton Mail is providing me my own privacy .
My only suggestion is that why do we need to go to google play store to download proton application from there ? why not direct from Proton website so that we are not force to create gmail account

I subscribed to a lifetime account and was expecting to be able to use the 20Gb as I wanted. Like to be able to store important documents, family pictures, etc... in a safe place, forever.
I believe that to see it happen, we have to support and promote ProtonMail to make it grow!

I'm surprised they havent started on this as a side project or something. I mean it only makes sense.
Then again stick to a top shelf email system and doing it well rather then doing a few diff products that may or may not have problems as some have mentioned below as well.
Either way thank you for your hard work protonmail. -

It would be nice if the Proton folks could buy in heavy into Owncloud and offer a hosted Owncloud option that ties in with Protonmail. I would pay extra for this at a rate of 150% what Google charges for space, if not 200%.

I somewhat agree with Robert VažanRobert Važan commented · September 27, 2016 13:05
Seeing as storage is roadmap, would ProtonMail consider the brillaint possibilty of collaborating with https://chwww1.confidesk.com/auth/login
It too is a Swiss company based around privacy and the bad thing is, it’s not too popular and was curious whether ProtonMail could raise funds later on to either aquire the company with its employees or collaborate with them and have it integrated into the system such as “PM Confidesk” and just add to the functionality and security.
One of the main reasons I’m suggesting this is because storage especially modern day online storage is either quite unsecure, unreliable or not as brilliantly functional as one would expect. I suppose seeing as something similar, if not the replication of such a system (Confidesk) will be due, wouldn’t it be best to avoid all the hassle of what ProtonMail did to get the email system started and rather immidiately begin adding to the functionality, security and its efficiency such as collaboration and business use. At the very least discussing it with them considering they have similar principals.

I use Mega for encrypted storage. A free account gives you 50Gb.

Or may I suggest a "notes" feature to securely store information outside of an email.
