Organize Photos
It would be great, and frankly necessary, feature to be able to organize photos:
To be able to filter and preview with different criteria (Assigned album, location, device, etc.), and not only to see them listed by date.
E.g. Add a button/slider like - Exclude pictures assigned to Albums from Photos. So a user can easily filter "unassigned" photos. - If I assign photos to an album, I know where to find them - Current setup is confusing because I don't know if I added all of the photos I want to an album.When backing up folders from mobile device, it would be great if we could mirror the organisational structure.
E.G. If the photos on a mobile device are already sorted in "Albums" and "Group Albums", we should be able to see the same structure in Proton Drive without re-creating it manually. (Basically just copy Samsung Gallery or similar organisation)Being able to link Albums in Proton Drive as a folder - One you can open and manage as any other, maybe add a special icon.

Please can we have the option to add to album and delete when we click on the photo.
Most of my photos in the photo page only seem to display as a generic thumbnail (I've got thousands of photos and now I have to click on the photo to see what it is and then go back to add it to an album or delete it - it's far too time consuming to do this. -

For the love of all pizzas in the world! Sort backed up photos by folder! If the photos are uploaded from the "Camera/DCIM" folder, upload that folder. If a photo is uploaded from the "Screenshots" folder, upload that folder!
Just dumping everything in ONE spot is mildly infuriating imo... I do not want to be forced to organize over a thousand photos/pictures AGAIN when they're already sorted just fine on my phone.
And also, where do the backed up photos go? My phones been backing up photos for the past hour but nothing is yet to be visible in the desktop/Windows explorer 🤷♂️

I think it is critical that you can exclude images from "all" when they are added to an album.

How about sending photos from one album to another. I have over 20k photos. I can't be trying to find it in the main screen to put it in an album...

#2 in the original idea is most important for me - all my photos are already in albums (folders), whether on my phone, PC or in Proton Drive Files and I just can't face having to manually recreate all the albums in Proton Drive Photos!

+1 for Koen, sorting alphabetically, should be very simple to realize, and useful, especially on mobile device (iOS) the album list is very inconvenient to browse

To be able to choose "not in any album" view is so much needed!

When adding a photo to an album, it would be great if one could pick photos specifically from an existing album or photos not assigned to any album.

It also allows you to insert a description in photos, as Google Photos and Mega Gallery do. Like, Maria's birthday.

Sort albums based on name or photos containing, not on order creating the albums

Please change/extend the filters in the Proton Drive Photo's section to select all photos that are not already assigned to any album. That way you can the the "unsorted" or photos that are not yet in a collection.
Also it would be good to include in the photo metadata of which albums the photo is a part.
