  1. Photos bidirectional sync

    It's great that one's photos can be "backed up". But, photos needs to have bidirectional syncing. An example: if one deletes a photo on one's phone, it should be deleted in Proton Drive/Photos. I applaud all of the wonderful improvements in Proton Drive/Photos, but to be fully functional this feature is needed. Of course, none of the features are available to Linux users as there is NO PROTON DRIVE CLIENT available for Linux.

  2. Organize Photos

    It would be great, and frankly necessary, feature to be able to organize photos:

    1. 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.

    2. When backing up folders from mobile…

  3. Allow selection of email alias for Proton Drive shared downloads

    When we share a file from Proton Drive, it reveals the account primary email address. E.g. "Digital signature verified. This file was securely uploaded by email@proton.me". Allowing the use of an alias would help maintain privacy.

  4. 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.

  5. Preload photos in the background for quick viewing

    Viewing photos in proton drive is quite cumbersome as it takes a several seconds for each photo to load in high quality. Preloading the next few photos - and keeping the previous few in memory - would make the experience so much more enjoyable.

  6. WebDAV Access for ProtonDrive (Linux)

    Dear Proton Team,

    I’d like to share my feedback regarding Lumo and using ProtonDrive on Ubuntu. Below is a summary of our discussion:

    1. WebDAV Access for ProtonDrive I attempted to use ProtonDrive via WebDAV on Ubuntu to improve usability. Despite enabling Beta access, I couldn’t find a WebDAV option in ProtonDrive settings. Efforts to use davfs2 or rclone failed because the domain dav.proton.me couldn’t be resolved.
    2. Alternative Solutions ProtonMail Bridge: Installed successfully but lacks direct ProtonDrive integration. Session Buddy: A Chrome extension to save ProtonDrive sessions, reducing frequent logins. However, I’m uncomfortable relying on this workaround due to security concerns…

  7. 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

  8. Proton Docs: documents should use odt format by default

    Even if docx is a format more used, Proton should use odt instead as it is an open and standardized format while docx is proprietary and belongs to Microsoft.

  10. local album to proton album

    The new Albums are awesome, however having to manage albums in my phone gallery and proton manually is a major design flaw. Please make it so one can sync specific local folders to proton-folders automatically, so they can be shared. This slightly cuts into this: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932839-proton-drive/suggestions/49920087-shared-photo-library

  11. Speed Improvements For Photos

    The Photos Feature is pretty cool. I don't do much with my photos, and I'm so close to just switching to it as my primary photos app (Just use it as a backup right now). However, the very slow speed of the photos loading when scrolling through is just unusable. I don't know what exactly causes it to be slow, but my guess would be the encryption. Perhaps use a faster standard like Ente does. Thank you for your time!

  13. Sync Photos folder with desktop app

    With the Android app we can now backup our photos to the Photos category/folder in Proton Drive and we can view these in the web app.

    Please add the option to sync these photos to a computer folder with the
    desktop app as well.

  17. Preserve Photo Metadata

    When syncing photos, it would be better if it also created the folders being synced to save having to create them in Proton Drive and move your pictures to it. Also, make it a true sync so if I delete photos from my device, it also removes them from PD.

    More importantly. Please preserve the metadata of the original file. It's really important to have your photos with the time and date stamp of when they were taken, and also the location information. This is crucial when restoring your files.

  18. Android/Photos: Store separately separate synced folders. Don't intermix Photos with Screenshots.

    I miss folders under Photos section. And it would be fine to make their names match folders I selected for sync on phone.

    Otherwise my photos and screenshots are all in single Photos folder. And they are too many to sort them manually between "Albums".

  19. Selective photo backup

    Currently all photos are automatically backed up when using the feature. I would like the option to select which photos I think should be backed up when I've made some photos during the day.

  20. Dont upload edited Photos from IOS as duplicate

    Currently, if i edit a Photo on IOS it uploads to Proton 2 Photos (one original and one Edited). This should not be or be optimised (maybe ask if i want to synch the original or edited Photo). Since i personally edit a lot of Photos, i have lots of Duplicates (and therefore a lot of Space used) in ProtonDrive
