I'd be glad if at least I can start auto-sync'ing pictures and docs from Android/iOS

I am waiting this feature to migrate all my family members to proton: i need an user experience "Google-like" to convince them

A photos app with automatic uploads is keeping me from fully ditching the Google services. Especially if the Proton photos app will have a feature similar to "remember this day 2 years ago".

Currently using ente.io. I think it's one of the best alternative for Google photos. But if proton make a photos app then I will definitely use that

This is currently the feature that keeps me from migrating over from my Google Workspace

Please also consider collaborative family sharing. I would like to have the ability to share a "family album" with my wife, my children and everybody can collaborate (add, delete) photos there. Just as the "shared iCloud Photo library" in iOS 16.
Thank you!

One of the biggest features I hope to see added very soon.

Please at least add HEIC support for iPhone photos, thanks!

Yet with a decent syncing feature and integration with mobile gallery app

Same for me: this is pretty mandatory functionality to migrate from our current cloud services (OneDrive, Nextcloud self hosted). The lack of this kind of functionality is holding me back to switch to Proton with both my family users, as well as my businesses.

Agreed. iCloud is too convenient, it syncs all your photos and the interface is clean and snappy, the functionality of iCloud photos is too handy to give up especially when there is no secure alternative, not that Apple would allow you to use Proton Photos ( ProPhoto? Photon? ) as the default photo library on iOS but it's certainly worth a shot. I worry that even if Proton comes out with a photos app it will take a long time for it to get on par with iCloud photos as it has taken them a long time to add features to Proton Drive...

I would drop icloud if this was available. I have much more photo storage than document storage. I'm not currently subscribed to premium drive because it lacks this feature

If not building your own, this project has come a long way and feels the most like google photos https://immich.app/, investing/contributing/integrating in this open source project would be awesome.

@Proton team, Please merge this (and the votes) with the following idea, since they are the same:

At least an automatic photo synchronization from the phone to Proton Drive is needed (critical).

Exactly what I need, if this was implemented I would drop my iCloud+ plan !
Amazon Photos used to have a good sync between iOS photos and Amazon Photos, they even supported Live Photos ! ...
Please bring this to iOS (and don't forget Live Photos )

cheers ! keep it up ! :)

This is the only thing keeping me from loving Proton's services. Most of the reason I got Proton Drive was to store photos and it's frustrating that there's no real support for photos.

I subscribed to proton for 2years as I hope to see this function. I wont be needing tresorit,nord as all vpn,mail,back ups including photos are going to be available with proton. I do hope this will be done sooner than later!

I need this, the only thing keeping me tied to google are my phots.
At the moment, its the easiest way to manage and sync my images from my device.

We have ProtonDrive, why not ProtonPhots?
Able to share with with family members on a family plan. Also, shared family calendar please 😁

O really thanks for that https://pettihome.shop/collections/copriletti-estivi
