Would also like to voice a request for this functionality specifically to help me set up my Obsidian Vault, but I know it will be beneficial to many other apps in the long run

Wanted to also add another active voice to this thread. I'm moving away from using TictTic task manager to using Obsidian. On windows I can set a folder in Pdrive to be an Obsidian vault, but Obsidian (on android) can't see any of my Pdrive folders and this makes syncing on mobile unavailable. I now have to setup a more convoluted syncing solution, that requires 3rd party programs to work. At least having 1 specific "Multi-Device" folder on Pdrive for android would avoid this hassle.

This would change my life. To me without this functionality the android app is nearly useless.

It is a critical feature for daily use. Let the user decide which files can live unencrypted on the android device. Or make it like the windows app there we can access the files from any other app, so the difference is unclear to me

+1

let me have this and you can just say "choosing to accept this means your willing to accept more privacy concerns". I just want this to get out off google drive and to use obsidian

This is critical. I want EVERYTHING in my Proton Drive, but I can't expect them to build in all of MY preferred tools. This lets me use Proton Drive across my laptop, computer, and android phone and keep everything there. Having local folder integration with Android on my phone is the same risk as having folder integration with Windows on my laptop. A risk I am willing to take because it enables so much more of my workflow.

Basic functionality

for me, this kind of integration is the number one use case for proton drive

Yep. Trying to stay out of multiple clouds, but without this support this is a tough one on mobile.

PLEASE

Proton, you must do it.

The only thing blocking me to leave MS.

même problème de synchronisation sur Android que d'autres, en particulier avec Obsidian

I really need this.
I'm on an Unlimited plan but the drive functions are basically non existent... and not being able to pick photos from proton on android might be a deal breaker

It's a shame - I really love Proton and want to use it to its fullest potential but this keeps my obsidian vault bounded. I know its a security issue, but right now its a deal breaker - please give us a big warning but let us do our thing. I'm begging!

I have fallen in love with Obsidian and yet I can't sync it easily through Proton Drive. I already pay for Proton, I hate the idea of having to pay for syncing features when Proton Drive feels like it should be a solution.

No use for the app if this isn't solved.

This is just needed - what ever would you need the app for if it can't sync files?

This is absolutely critical for my use case for this product and from the comments below quite a few others. I didn't even consider that this wouldn't be possible until I tried to use Proton Drive to sync my obsidian notes. Then once I had it all setup, how do I select that my vaults are stored in Proton Drive, and I can't. Please implement this. I need to store my notes securely but also share between my different devices, one of them being Android.

This is mandatory for a drive application to be able to work on the files, with synchronization...
