Photo Albums, tagging, location search
Albums, photo tagging, search by location for Proton Drive Photos.
Pretty much like Google Photos, but encrypted. Probably without the automatic classification since that would require you to see my photos :D

With today's addition of Albums into Proton Drive, some of the requested features have already been completed, with more already being announced as part of our future plans and development.
As Albums on Proton Drive develops, the rest of your photo-album related feature requests will make their way! In the meantime, please make use of the feature and help us develop it further starting today!

Just a basic function for users of a photo storage space, and really, really should be there already! Please, please add

Drive is a solid backup.
However controll over the photo's is a BIG issue.Being able to at least create and use albums and preserving searchable attributes makes it usefull
Photo backup to me now is a 1 out of 5 stars.

Change the photos ui to be similar to that of mega cloud service.
Here you have a timeline that you can zoom in and out, and you can also zoom in and out of the thumbnails sizes.
But most importantly, you can create albums and share those.
This is very important if you want to move out of iCloud Photos or Google photos and into proton instead of into mega.
Many people as I, have thousands of photos, and constantly more coming, and we continuously need to create and share albums with family members, for instance after a vacation or whatever.
I hope you will implement this, so I can move to proton instead of to mega. -

Proton Drive Photos is not a viable alternative to native photo apps. Simply backing up photos without preserving metadata like location or album organization forces users to keep their original app (Apple Photos, Google Photos) for proper management. Please improve this feature to retain essential photo data and structure.

I would love to see a photo management tool from Proton in the near future. Something like Google Photos with Albums or at least tags.

For me the ability to have albums is most important. On my devices I will sort photos by subject matter so I can find them easily. Backing up to Proton Drive throws them into one folder. This is not convenient.
Tagging and location search is not important because of possible privacy issues as stated in the original post, but manual tagging and location would be a nice add.

We NEED a photo albums feature like Google Photos or Enter.io!
The way it's currently setup with Proton Drive is absolutely horrendous!

Basically use A system like Ente.io has

Look into immich/ente, how they do on-device machine learning to tag photos. both are opensource so can take inspiration from how both do it, they are perfect examples.

#1 Would buy Visionary right now if Proton could remotely replace Google Photos.
Ente Photos is doing it more than right.

This whole uservoice is just useless, if proton doesn't listen to their userbase.
Instead they're redirecting resources to their wallet project, no one asked for: -

This should be the #1 feature for drive. Who values google docs over photos?

Would definitely make the Drive more useful for me, as I mainly use it for photo storage, trying to stay away from the likes of Google.
