It scans up to 24 pages then you have to start a new scan. It would be nice to be able to scan more, though risky if it glitches lol

Smart naming using templates would be useful.

Example:

Template Name: Paycheck
Template: YYYY - Paycheck [Start] to [End]

great but what about a powerful doc research : the current app is a nightmare when it comes to finding documents, and even the title display is incomplete !

coming soon is hardly completed

Great news!

Really an essential business need to scan contracts and invoices received by mail efficiently to have them available digitally.

It is essential to convert paper documents into PDFs and seamlessly upload them to Proton Drive. I have recently discovered a 3rd party app, MakeACopy, which does a pretty good job. But it seems to be the right thing to have it integrated into the Proton Drive app like Nextcloud and others.
Edit 19 Mar 2026: the beta Android app has this feature now. The functionality is very good.

Voted for this quite a while ago - still having to use the workaround in iOS of scanning it in the iOS folder, then going to Proton Drive and then uploading the previously created document after searching for it... takes way too long.

same here ... I'm waiting for this feature so I can finally migrate fully to proton

Yes! Using a third party app, even a good one is painful.

This is the reason why i have not fully migrated away from google drive, b/c Proton drive does not have a pdf document scanner. Both the google drive and onedrive scan and upload functionality are good and could serve as inspiration for the implementation.

I need this. I currently use a 3rd party app, which is not ideal.

I use my drive to store expense receipts for work and not having this is a reason I can't recommend proton drive to my colleagues as the document scan feature of other drive software is too useful.

This is common feature nowadays, available in OneDrive and, I think, pCloud as well. Should be easy to implement as well. Many phones have a framework for this that apps can use

Love Proton products. Have the highest level of paid membership. Simply Can Not switch away from PCloud for documents until Scanning Docs is part of the Proton Drive iOS App. Sure, there are workarounds, so many third party apps that can scan a document and even store it (Pcloud, OneDrive, Genius Scan, Google Docs, Box, ScanSnap, so many) that is seems like a basic feature. If you wanted to combine one of these apps with Proton Drive you then move around multiple menus and sub-menus in iOS to upload to Proton Drive. That is far to cumbersome for something I use constantly. Especially when many other apps make it so effortless. Please add the feature so I can use Proton Drive.

This is a must have for me. Google drive handles it within their app and with iOS it natively does that when uploading to files or into a note.

I would love it if this proposed feature allowed you to do in bulk (that is scanning all into one document and in multi doc bulk where you can keep scanning each document and each document is treated as a separate file)

I use the scanning feature A LOT - right now, on iOS, I need to go to the iPhone "Files", then hit the scan button, save the scan ON THE iPHONE, then go to proton drive and import the document.

I have tried directly scanning documents via the "Files" app on iOS and then navigating to the Proton folder and then scanning, but often that leads to a crash or unsaved document (based on number of pages scanned).

+1 Currently use Tresorit which is end to end encrypted like ProtonDrive, and they have this feature as well: https://support.tresorit.com/hc/en-us/articles/360015739973-Scan-and-upload-documents

A big thumbs up - this would go hand in hand with a sensible workflow especially regarding digitization of personal documents, which I would much rather have in my Proton Drive than where they currently are 😣

This is one of the functions I use most in both Google drive and Onedrive. Full switch to Proton drive paid subscription when scan to pdf with basic edit (crop, auto straighten, etc) and save to file (with editable file name on save).
