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.

Support for more file formats in Proton Docs
It would be great to see Docs support more file formats for import/export and editing. As a Mac user, I would like to see .pages but I’m sure others have file formats they could add to the list. Open docs, Libre docs etc…

Photo backup by album should save to albums
In the mobile app I can select which albums to backup on Proton drive. When saved to Proton drive the photos should stay sorted into those albums.
Additionally, being able to create share links to those albums would be good as well.

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 !

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.

Proton Docs: Option to stop automatically converting dashes to bullet points
I am excited for Proton Docs and I wanted to migrate my document off Google Drive and onto Proton but I haven't found an option to stop bullet points from being created from a dash followed by a space.
Most of my documents are creative writing, which means every line of dialogue is basically being turned into a bullet point, rendering Proton Docs pretty much unusable as it is for me.
I wish there was a way to disable this behavior or at least have a bullet point option that uses the dash symbol '-' in addtion to the circle,…

A Folder's date should be the same as the NEWEST object it contains
Please vote on reddit as well if you agree: https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/comments/1di8s9s/proton_drive_a_folders_date_should_be_the_same_as/
Whenever a file is uploaded to a folder (or a sub-folder created), the dates of all the folders up-stream ought to be updated, so that it's easy to find things if we're going by date.
Let's suppose that I have the following folder structure:
(Ignore the dots; they're needed for the indentation.)
········My files
········|
········+- Work
········|·····|
········|·····+- Project 1
········|·····|
········|·····+- Project 2

Add "private link" to (sharing) Drive Document/Folder
I'd like to be able to use "private links" to my documents in other tools. For example, Zotero is a tool to manage scientific reading material. I currently use Google Docs to store my documents and add a private link to them in my Zotero library entries. (IT is important for it to be a private link, considering that some libraries are shared or public, but I don't want to get in trouble with sharing links to copyrighted material.)

Color Indicators for Prioritizing and Organizing Folders
I use drive to work with employees who are remote. It would be helpful to have a way to color code folders/contents for what I'd like them to work on first.

Stop double spacing lines by default
On documents, by default, when you hit the return key you get a double-spaced line. I understand that you can get a normal single-spaces line by using shift-return but that is annoying as **** Why would you make the default something I never want? You fore me to use shift-return every time.

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.

Folders in photos
I would love the ability to create folders in the photos section of Proton Drive.
Note that I'm NOT looking for the ability to create albums or tags, but to actually create folders within the photos section as a way of organizing my pictures.
This was a feature that I used in Dropbox to manage a large amount of photos, and I was frustrated that it wasn't available in Google photos. I'm hoping that you can add it to Proton Drive (along with a smoother docs experience) to make it the best backup offering out there.

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…

Remove local sync data from computer when user signs out of drive on the device
When you sign out of Proton Drive on a local computer, Mac or Windows, the synced copies of the files remain unencrypted on your local disk.
There are three simple use cases here that could be facilitated by options on the sign-out page.
- Securely remove all data from the local disk
- Encrypt the locally stored data until the user signed in again
- Leave the data as is, open and insecure - the current behaviour.
This would allow the user to choose how their data is handled when signing out.

Folder details and file versions
On the Folder details, can it be distinguished between Upload folder and Created folder please? If Uploaded then the size and is it possible for Folder versioning? About the file versioning it would be helpful to capture accurate logs of the versions, even if a version is deleted and by whom IF we can't get admin approval for any deletion on company or host shared drive.

View only permissions for share link (no download option)
I would love to see a feature in share link settings that would block/remove the download option. Useful in cases where you want people to be able to preview photos for example, but not be able to easily download them. This wouldn't stop tech-savvy users but would provide some friction against the average user downloading things you may not want them to.

Unlimited Storage
I would like to see Unlimited Storage tier similar to Google Workspaces and Dropbox. It's one of the two blockers that prevent me from switching to Proton.
The way Google and Dropbox implemented it is they don't just give unlimited storage up front but require users request increase when they approach their current storage limits. This works well to prevent abuse of the system, but it gives users who have a legitimate need for extensive and steadily but slowly growing data have a peace of mind that they will not face a situation where they are capped by an artificial…
