Proton Docs Improvements
The ability to have a non-pageless design, a ruler, line spacing so it can be used for academic papers (think double space, 1.15, 1.5, etc...), ability to open PDFs in Proton Docs, word count, and the paint format feature. Also, please add the ability for the mobile versions of Proton Drive to edit Proton Docs in the app or a separate Proton Doc app. I love Proton Docs though it's amazing and the UI is beautiful.

Increasing file streaming from 100MB to 2GB
Proton Drive has a streaming feature, but you can only stream files that are up to 100MB. They should increase it to at least 2GB if not more.

Proton Docs download to .odt feature
Besides .docx, many of us who use Linux and free/open-source software like LibreOffice Writer sometimes use .odt instead. It would be wonderful to have a direct export/download to .odt within Proton Docs

Support older macOS versions
Currently, the Proton Drive app for Mac is only compatible with version 13 of macOS (Ventura). However, many Mac users operate older versions and may be unable to upgrade due to hardware constraints (older Macs). From an environmental standpoint, it should be able to keep one's computer for as long as it works, and not be forced to trade up just to be able to access a new feature...

Move photos from photos tab to other folders
Hi, thanks for making Drive available for Linux. I use Fedora 39 KDE.
I also use Photo backup via Android (Samsung S23)
When I open all my files/photos in Linux web browesr, if I right click images, I can move to respective folders. As well as preview, move,rename, get link & delete.
If I open the folder that uploads Photos, via Android, this option is not available. Only download, upload or delete.
Perhaps this is a feature in the making?35 votes -
Synchronize deleting Photos
When deleting a photo from your gallery, it should be removed from Proton Drive Photos as well, and vice versa. It is really inconvenient having to go to both apps to delete photos you've taken. It should still also be possible to free up space on your phone by deleting local copies, maybe through the Drive app.

Directly edit markdown files as Docs
I love the new Doc support in Drive. However, I don't like that opening a markdown file creates a new Doc file. (For example, helloworld.md when opened in Docs creates a new file called helloworld, which results in me having two copies to maintain of the same file).
I think a simple solution could be to allow an option for "Edit as Markdown in Docs" or something.

Allow upload photos without WiFi
Currently the app requires WiFi to upload photos. For those of us with unlimited cellular data it would be nice to upload using this.

Show desktop folders on mobile app
I'm using the beta Windows sync client and it works well to be able to sync my folders up to the Proton Drive webapp. However, while the sync client allows you to sync any folders on your machine, no folders outside of the ProtonDrive folder on the computer are showing up on the mobile app. On the web all of the folders that sit outside of the Proton Drive main folder show up under a "Computers" navigation. For those of us that have multiple folders across multiple drives can you enable the ability to see "computers" in the mobile app?

Change or hide username and default email address in email sent inform about shared folders or files
With the new sharing feature (web-version), an email is sent automatically to the recipients displaying the sender's standard username and email address. Let the user change the sender address and username (even aliases) or suppress the automatic email and send an individual email manually instead. The username and standard email address might confuse the recipient and breach the individual privacy policy of the sender.

Delete phone photos after upload
Option to delete uploaded photos from phone
Just uploading pictures is not enough if I need to check and delete the pictures by hand. There should be the option to one-click delete uploaded pictures or do that automatically after a certain time.

Need more granular versioning options
Currently, the Version History setting is global and applies to all files and folders equally. Instead, it would be helpful to be able to configure versioning at the folder or file level.
For example, I could have a large file (e.g. a video) that I'm actively working on and revising. I don't want previous versions hanging around for months or years as they are just taking up space.
On the other hand, I may have smaller, important documents whose revisions I want to keep for years.
With the current system, I would need to set the global option to 10…

Improve drive sync algorithm to greatly improve performance
Proton Drive is extremely slow to upload my files, it's going at around ~200 Kbps, whereas speedtest.net shows I can do 3.62 Mbps upload.
This is especially noticeable when there is a large number of small files to sync (eg, photo collection).
I suspect that a potential cause is that new threads might be created to upload each individual file, resulting in the unnecessary opening and closing of many connections. Perhaps a better solution would be for each upload thread to establish a continuous connection and then pipe multiple files through that connection as raw data, which can be split…

Delay for photo backup
Currently Proton Drive uploads photos/videos as soon as they are taken.
But sometimes you want those deleted immediately. And by the time you delete them from the local gallery, Proton Drive has already started uploading them, meaning you now have to wait until it's uploaded so you can also delete them from Proton Drive.
A delay of maybe 5 minutes before starting the upload would be incredibly helpful in this situation.

Allow ios photo syncing on mobile data
If users' mobile data plan allows it they'll most certainly want to have their photos backed up as soon as they take them. I know I do (I only have mobile data, so WiFi only means I don’t have this feature). Already implemented in Android.

Share Photos folder
It's great we can finally sync our photos automatically with Proton Drive, but now, we'd like to share them.
I would like to be able to share the whole folder with people from my family account.
Congrats for all your great work !
