  1. Finnish language support for mobile apps

    Finnish language is available on the web version on Proton Drive but is missing on the mobile apps. Thus, translations are available and should just be added to mobile apps

  2. Multiple passwords for share links

    I'd love to see the ability to add more than one password for a share link that you can individually control and remove. This would add an extra level of security when sharing with multiple people and allow you to better control your opsec. Say one person shares the password without permission, you can effectively kick them off the link by just deleting that one password while still allowing others to access with their own password that you gave them.

  4. Make it so audio doesn't close when turning your phone horizontally

    I'm a music producer and upload my music to Proton Drive to listen to it on multiple devices. When I have the audio playing and I turn my phone horizontally, it closes the audio and the app takes about 5 seconds to go back to normal. If you play the music from inside a folder as I do and flip it horizontally, it closes the audio, shows the contents of the folder, glitches a bit and then goes back to the main screen

    I would like it so the audio continues to play with the same screen when you turn…

  6. iOS: Ability to Return to Previously Viewed Page in PDF Viewer

    For example, if I tap on a chapter in the table of contents in a PDF and the view jumps to that chapter, I would like a “back” or “return” button allowing me to easily jump back to the table of contents.

    I have a lot of books in PDF form and it would be nice to read those PDFs within the Proton Drive app instead of having to export to another app, like Adobe.

  8. Ability to give write access to third party apps

    As of my understanding, third party apps can only read files from the Proton Drive cloud (Android). It would be nice if they could also write if you choose to. In my case, I would use it to save a keepass database back and forth.

  9. Docs: expanded colour options

    specific and customisable colour coding of text and pages is helpful and important for me in how i've used google docs so far; I'd love to see Proton's Docs offer a similar feature of customisable colour-selection via a hex code colour picker or similar as well as being able change the colour of everything in the document such as page colour and individual bullet points (separately from the colour of their proceeding text) for example

  10. Don't default move deleted files to Trash, and make this configurable and more transparent.

    I only found out by accident that deleted files end up in an online-only Trash folder instead of being deleted. From a privacy and security centric company I find this quite shocking.

    I would expect at the very last for this to be:

    a) Opt-in, preferably with flexible retention.
    b) Much, much more explicit, and definitely not entirely obscured by the app and only discoverable via the web interface.

    I don't want to have to remember that files I deleted are still stored at online at Proton, and having to go to the web to ensure they're really gone.

  11. Allow renaming files during upload on Android

    When you receive a document and want to upload it to Proton Drive on Android using the "share" feature, it saves the file using the existing name, which is almost always meaningless when this is an invoice or anything else received by email. That would be great to be able to quickly rename the file before upload.

    If we could also define a default prefix for files that would be even greater (e.g. date as "YYMMdd_" for companies wanting to comply to ISO 9001).

  14. Make the selected text color in Proton Docs higher contrast

    The selected text in the new Proton Docs editor is very light compared to the white background. Please raise the contrast regardless of the background color (hoping for a dark mode, too).

  17. Allow users to sync files via web interface.

    Today I ran a test on my Proton Drive account. I added a folder with 3 files in it. On my local copy of the folder, I added a 4th file then tried to upload the folder again. It told me a folder with that name already exists and gave me 2 choices. 1 Replace the existing folder or 2 keep both, with a number added to the name of the second folder. For windows and mac users you have the option to sync a folder with the Proton Drive client. For Linux there is no Proton Drive client. The…

  18. Update Uninstaller so it Removes Proton Drive Folder Link in Windows Navigation Bar

    The Uninstaller does not remove the Proton Drive folder link in the Explorer navigation bar. The folder cannot be accessed through the link because the folder location is not available.

    Reinstalling PD adds ANOTHER PD folder link to the navigation bar EACH TIME!! So you're telling me that I'll have 40 Proton Drive folders in the nav bar if I reinstall 40 times? Seriously? How is this acceptable?

  20. Adjust usage warnings for large accounts

    • using 2GB of a 5GB drive account has no warnings & the indicator bottom-left is ok/green
    • using 600GB of a 700GB drive account shows a big banner at the top of proton that keeps re-appearing & the usage indicator bottom-left for web mail+drive shows red.

    Suggested fix: adjust the warnings usage percentages to be smaller when the total size of the account is larger.
