Backup mobile device
I think it would be useful
to make a backup of your android phone or iphone with protondrive
I have an android phone and it makes an automatic backup on google drive
and I prefer not to use google apps

Our mobiles have become more and more important in our daily life and they contain a lot of personal infos and tools that make our life easier and safer.
However, break it, lose it or so and you are lost.
The only existing solution is to have a mobile back-up on Samsung cloud, Google cloud or apple, sacrifing our privacy.
It would be very interesting to have the possiblity to back up our mobile (contacts, messages, calls, applications...) on a secure cloud like proton and be able to reload it to a new phone when necessary. -

Proton is already moving towards a comprehensive, secure, private service. That fractures in some places. Smartphone backup is one of those places. Google for Android and Apple for iOS vacuum up vast amounts of our private data whether we like it or not and act like a huge leak in the the secure barrier Proton provide. It is possible to de-Google now with many phones thanks to the 'e' Foundation among others and I would like to see Proton integrate with this trend.

This really would be a great addition.

This depends mostly on the device/OS manufacturers and not Proton. There's a reason Google only offers backups to their own service just like Apple with iCloud.

As someone else wrote but also for Android: "It would be great for backup emails, just to save them as a PDF directly to proton drive
And also be able to save attachment directly without downloading and the uploading to proton drive" -

It would be fantastic to be able to easily backup/restore an Android Phone to a ProtonDrive instance. This could be easily done by adding a gateway between SeedVault app (available on LineageOS by default) and ProtonDrive (SeedVault already support such feature with a NextCloud instance).
