1. Add Commenter role to allow commenting without editing

   In addition to Editor and Viewer, it would be great to have a Commenter role available at the Doc and folder level, as in Google Drive.

   I'd love to allow collaborators to comment on, but not edit, any Proton Doc in a shared folder.

2. Standardise file and folder sorting across apps

   The Proton Drive web app sorts folders in the left-hand file tree lexicographically but sorts files and folders in the right-hand folder content area numerically. Files and folders in the iOS/iPadOS app are sorted lexicographically.

   Let’s assume I have a folder that itself has twenty folders, each named 1 to 20. The web app sorts them as follows in the left-hand folder tree:

   1,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,2,20,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

   However, the web app sorts them as follows in the right-hand folder content area:

   1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20

   This is confusing. The sorting method should be standardised across all areas of all apps. Should that standard be sorting numbers as strings, or sorting numbers as numbers? Personally, I think the latter makes more sense.

3. Sheets: Better support for manually inputting durations

   I really like that Proton Sheets properly supports time-only data and durations. However, manually inputting a duration is a bit of a hassle, as the underlying data seems to be in fractions of a day: If I want my duration cell to display e.g. "8:00:00", I have to input 0.33333 or =8/24. It would be nice if Sheets recognized some common time durations, so that e.g. 8h, 8h30, 8.5h or 8:30 is converted to the proper duration value.

4. Sheet: Choose encoding when import

   We cannot choose file encoding when importing CSV file.

   Because of I'm Japanese user, I often use Shift JIS encoding for CSV file.

   There are many services that issues CSV as Shift JIS encoding in Japan.

7. Allow Proton Business admins to (jointly) manage file and folder shares

   I'm using Proton Business Suite. In Proton Drive, I can share files and folders with people in my team. When I share a file or folder, I can assign people as "viewers" or "editors".

   I certain cases, I would like to further elevate these privileges to "admin": for my collaborators to have insight in and control over the sharing of this/these files and folders.

   This would effectively create the possibility of a fully "shared drive" (in the Google Drive sense of the word, for example), where people take full co-ownership (administrator rights) on the folder.

   Even better if I (as the primary admin), could create a separate "shared drive" with separately assigned quotas and top-level sharing that I can manage independently from my private drive. I understand that this is tricky because of Proton's security model.

   Maybe you can have it as a requirement that the account's owner / primary admin has access to (effectively "owns") all shared drives?

8. Simple way to clone a template folder with subfolders in Proton Drive online

   I’m running a solo physiotherapy practice on Linux (Zorin OS) computers and Android tablets, and I rely on Proton Drive to store all patient documentation in a structured folder hierarchy.

   It would be incredibly helpful to have a built‑in “Clone Template Folder” feature that lets users duplicate a pre‑configured folder (with subfolders, permissions, and naming conventions) for each new patient and then personalize it. This capability would streamline onboarding new cases and keep the workflow consistent, especially for users who don’t have a native Linux desktop client and must work primarily through the web interface.

   Implementing such a feature—perhaps via a right‑click “Duplicate as Template” option or a simple API endpoint—would greatly improve productivity for many professionals using Proton Drive on Linux.

10. Sheets - search cell notes

    I would like to be able to search cell notes.

    The "Find in sheet" search box currently searches cells' formulas and even their displayed values—e.g., a $ in a cell that has the Accounting format.

    Combining them into a unified search would be okay. An option to limit the search range to formula, displayed value, and/or note would also be nice.

I do not want an additional subdirectory. I especially do not want one with a space in it. Just mount it where specified.

14. Bring Back Upload Rate

    Proton Drive changed the UI/UX of file uploads. This change removed the MB/s indicator on the right of the file name in the upload menu on the bottom right of the page. This post requests the Proton Drive Team to re-add the indicator for the upload rate for the files.
    Currently, only the total MB uploaded / total MB to be uploaded is shown for each file.

15. Add Spreadsheet‑Style Font Options to the Text Document Editor

    Proposal:
    When creating or editing a text document in Proton Drive, users currently have a limited set of typefaces compared with the richer font selection available in the new spreadsheet editor. To provide a more consistent and flexible writing experience across the suite, we propose extending the text‑document editor to include all the fonts that are now supported in the spreadsheet module (e.g., Calibri, Cambria, Arial Unicode, etc.).

    Benefits:

    Unified Design Language – Users can maintain visual consistency when embedding tables, charts, or excerpts copied from spreadsheets into documents.
    Improved Productivity – Reduces the need to switch between applications or manually adjust formatting after pasting spreadsheet content.
    Enhanced Creativity – Offers a broader typographic palette for reports, proposals, and other professional documents, aligning the text editor with the modern look of the spreadsheet tool.
    

    Implementation Considerations:

    Sync the font library between the two editors, ensuring any future font additions appear automatically in both places.
    Preserve existing document compatibility; default to the current font set if a newly added font isn’t supported on older clients.
    Update the UI to display the expanded font dropdown without clutter, perhaps grouping “Spreadsheet Fonts” under a dedicated sub‑section.
    

    Conclusion:
    Integrating the spreadsheet font collection into the text document editor will streamline workflows, enhance aesthetic control, and reinforce Proton Drive’s reputation as a cohesive, privacy‑focused productivity platform.

17. Make Photos visible as a top-level folder in My files

    This might be a quick functionality win for a relatively small amount of coding...

    From an Android perspective...

    (a) Make the photos (files) created and managed by the "Photos" section of Drive visible as a special top level sub-folder of the "My Files" area.

    (b) In the "My Files" view enable copying/moving between "Photos" and "My Files".

    This keeps these actions in the cloud and allows photos uploaded to Drive "My Files" as files (ie, on android, "shared" with Drive from another app), to be later moved to "Photos". No time take downloading, uploading etc.

19. Feedback Request: Enhanced PDF Export Feature for Proton Docs

    Dear Proton Docs Team,

    I am writing to provide feedback regarding the PDF export functionality within Proton Docs.

    My feedback pertains specifically to the current PDF export method. It appears that the "Export to PDF" option currently relies on the browser's native "Print to PDF" feature. While this offers basic functionality, it introduces an unprofessional element into the exported documents: the inclusion of the document's URL in the footer of every page.

    This behavior is particularly problematic when documents are intended for professional use, client presentations, or formal sharing. The presence of browser-generated headers and footers, especially the URL, detracts from the document's professional appearance and can be perceived as untidy or incomplete.

    I would like to respectfully request an improvement in this area. It would be immensely beneficial if Proton Docs could implement a dedicated, native PDF export feature. Such a feature would ideally:

    Generate clean, professional PDF documents without browser-specific headers, footers, or URLs.

    Offer more control over the export layout, ensuring a consistent and polished appearance.

    Allow for a seamless conversion of the document content directly into a PDF format, optimized for sharing and printing.

    Implementing a native PDF export would greatly enhance the professionalism and usability of documents created in Proton Docs, making them truly ready for any formal context. This improvement would undoubtedly be highly valued by users who frequently need to share polished documents.

    Thank you for considering this feedback. I look forward to seeing the continued evolution of Proton Docs.

    Sincerely,

    Adolfo

20. Allow to import photos from a synced folder

    The new landed import photos feature in Proton drive only allows importing photos that are not in a synced folder. This doesn't make sense, as photos are stored separately in Proton Drive. Therefore, not allowing the import of such folders makes it impossible to move photos from the Documents Drive folder to the photo section.
