I use Google Docs because they are very easy to edit from my phone. If Proton Docs were as easy to use, I would transfer everything over and rid myself of Google forever.

Some improvements to the mobile interface of Proton Docs are:
• Open in view mode by default, and double-tap for Edit mode.
• Indent/outdent buttons should be positioned just above the keyboard (like Google Docs) for quick bullet point editing.
• Dark mode. All mobile interfaces need dark mode because a white interface is super bright at night.

A desktop suggestion is to have the table of contents on the left, auto-created from the headings and subheadings. Really long documents need this feature for easy navigation.

Basically just take every feature from Google Docs. Their programmers have thought this stuff through already.

These missing features are preventing me from switching over from Google. Please fix!!

Margins and being able to do first-line indents is basic functionality that will make a world of difference for using Proton Docs as an alternative to Word or Google Docs.

While the line spacing is pending, it would be good if Proton could at least be consistent with it. At the moment I have documents where it's 1 on some lines and 1.5 on others and there's no way of fixing it (and this is text I pasted to match formatting so in theory it shouldn't come from the source). Even remove formatting doesn't make any difference.

Pageless is key.

The 1.5 line spacing is infuriating. You press Enter once and it gives you a new paragraph, not a new line. This is inconsistent with probably 95% of our computer usage, like using Outlook or posting on social media. And when you export the doc as markdown, that one keystroke is converted into two lines in the text file, which, if I want to paste it back into Docs, then effectively doubles again because each physical text line becomes a new paragraph in Docs.

Please make the Docs just do what I tell it to do. If I want a new line, give me a new line. If I want a new paragraph with adequate spacing around it, I'll press Enter twice. That's not an inconvenience for me. But seeing Docs try to guess what my document should look like, instead of just formatting it the way I tell it to, bugs me immensely and is the main reason I don't want to use it.

Proton Docs desperately needs to attain an MS Office '97 level of basic word processing functionality to be usable. Text editing features used to prepare letters and documents are missing. It is not even possible to change the line spacing! There also needs to be a way to have pages and print/export to PDF. With the increasing importance of moving away from Google Docs I hope core functionality like this will be prioritized.

Having the option to share a link with others would be amazing. It was there a few weeks ago and now it's missing. Plus, Proton only offers Viewer and Editor roles, but not a Commenter role like Google. Adding this feature to your docs which are protected infinitely more than Google Docs, would bring so many authors to you because most of them use Google to share with their alpha and beta Readers. Plus, their editors.

I would go one further and as for the ability to request e-signatures on our docs. I would love to use this platform for all things business vs having to spread my work across multiple platforms.

I think it's important to actually clarify the intended purpose of Proton Docs. If it's a Google Docs/Word equivalent or if it's a Notion/Obsidian equivalent?

Right now it's kind of advertising it self as A and functions closer to B and serves the purposes of neither, it's mostly a novelty that I find myself disappointed with and quickly abandoning in favor of either of the other products listed.

Make in-document links to other documents in Proton Drive easier to create. Think Standard Notes or Obsidian.

You can now edit on mobile drive, looks like it just opens a browser window within the app but you don't have to login anymore and it work seamlessly

Tabs and/or auto-indent. Some of us fossils are still stuck in the neolithic habit of having the first line in a paragraph indented. Makes it easier to spot the paragraph breaks.

One feature in Docs would be a tremendous help and yet easy to implement in my opinion: search & replace instances of a text.

Minor improvement of tables in Docs would be dragging rows up or down with a mouse.

Can you add a sort of selector or type of data "Date" ? Would be really useful for time tables.

Line spacing is definitely driving me batshit at the minute. I know they'll eventually introduce it so I'll just wait.

Would be nice to see short stats about the _selected_ text somewhere in a sidebar or in the bottom 1-line bar with the number of symbols, words, special charactersVSalphabeticVSnumeric.

very important

Can I make a link-reference on a page in the document to use it in the same document?
