  1. Ability to browse My Files added to Proton Drive in Proton Drive PC app

    After downloading the Proton Drive desktop app I have the ability to choose there which folders do I want to sync but to access My Files added to Proton Drive I have to go to File Explorer. I would love to have it in one place and not only have the ability to sync files from my PC through the Proton Drive desktop app but also to have there all My Files added to Proton Drive.

  2. Add fast scroll bar (jump from month to month) to albums, like in all photos

    The new scrollbar allowing you to jump from year to year and month to month in the all photos list is really nice. I wish the albums had it, right now I have to create an album per year to make large albums workable.

    I've tried both iOS and the web app and didn't see this in either place, although the announcement of the fast scroll bar seemed to indicate it should be there.

  3. Separate or tag devices for Photos

    When backing up photos, save each device's photo library to a separate folder or at least tag which device the photo came from.

    I take personal photos on my phone and photos for my business on my tablet, I don't want to mix them up in a single collection.

  4. I frequently experience issues with input not being accepted on my iPad Air and Magic Keyboard.

    I tried inputting text into Proton Sheets using an 11-inch iPad Air M2 and the official Magic Keyboard, but the following problems frequently occur:

    • Pressing the cursor keys does not move the cell.

    • When typing text with the cursor in a cell, the typed text is not entered into the cell (the typed text does not appear anywhere on the screen, and there is no response whatsoever).

    The conditions under which these problems occur are unclear. Sometimes, tapping the screen several times will allow input to be accepted, but often this does not.

    In any case, these are basic bugs,…

  5. Better aligned functions between the apps on separate devices

    For example: I can share a file/folder from my mobile phone Drive app, and get a link for this. I can even look at the shared files in the dedicated section 'Shared' and flick between 'Shared with me' and 'Shared by me'. Why can't the latter also be part of the desktop app? It would save me a lot of time.

    Also, 'Create document' would be great in the desktop Drive app, even if it opens my desktop browser to do so, but a dedicated document app would be fantastic!

  6. Add a way to clear/hide the activity section in the menu bar window

    For privacy reasons, there should be a way to clear or completely disable the activity section in the menu bar window on Mac.

  7. Activities should never clear and be openable

    In the Proton Drive app, the activity section only shows files that were just uploaded and will then clear the history. You also can't click the files to quick open them up. I think Activity should be more like a "recents" tab that shows most recent edited files for quick access where you can just click to open them.

  8. Normalize file names to NFC Unicode on sync to fix macOS–Windows compatibility with Korean characters

    [Problem]
    macOS stores Korean characters using NFD (Canonical Decomposition), while Windows and Linux use NFC (Canonical Composition). When files with Korean names are synced between platforms, the differing Unicode normalization forms cause file name conflicts, duplication, or sync errors.

    [Root cause]
    macOS HFS+/APFS decomposes characters into constituent jamo (NFD). The same Korean string has a different byte sequence on macOS vs Windows/Linux, even though it looks identical to users. This is a known OS-level behavior, not a user error.

    [Requested fix]
    Normalize all file and folder names to NFC before syncing, regardless of the originating OS. This is the approach…

  9. Adding Storage in increments

    I am intrigued by the Proton Unlimited plan but am only allowed 500GB of storage. One Drive gives me 1TB with a subscription to Office 365, but allows for the option to purchase additional storage tiers ($9.99/1TB)

    iCloud+ is even better with being able to purchase plans in 2TB increments for $9.99/mo and lac out to 12TB

    For users of the Unlimited and higher plans, make it easier for users to get more storage in increments if needed.

  10. Proton Drive's Sync Is Not Consistent Or Effective

    I so want to use Proton Drive exclusively, but it simply is unreliable. With OneDrive and Google Drive, I can add a file to my local machine and then access it on the web within minutes. With Proton Drive, I can add a file to a folder (that is set up for sync) and have it not sync for months...sometimes never. If I want to really sync, I have to manual go through each of my folders and do an overwrite of what's there by initiating the sync.

  11. Bug - Date Selection in Proton Sheets via Calendar Selection broken

    There is a Bug with Proton Sheets (Non-US based location) where when you double-click a date cell and attempt to change it via the drop down calendar selection box, it will mix up the day and month selection and give you the wrong date (I imagine it is mixing up day/month in the order due to a mixup between US and European date formats, juggling mm/dd/yyyy vs dd/mm/yyyy respectively).

    Example:

    I begin with a "Long Date" date format in my cell and have:

    Thursday, January 1 2026

    I then double click to bring up the calendar drop down and select…

  12. Make indent+outdent buttons visible by default on mobile

    As a mobile Proton Drive user taking notes on a book, a podcast, or a lecture, I want to indent and dedent with a single button press so that I can efficiently take hierarchical notes. Proton Drive and Google Docs both have indent/dedent functionality. Google docs shows indent+dedent buttons by default on mobile. Proton Drive hides them in a menu on mobile.

  14. Saved and existing images in the cloud

    Images that have already been uploaded to the cloud should then be clearly visible under Photos. If you have many folders with images in the cloud, they should be organized and visible as albums under Photos. Otherwise, the feature is useless for many people.

  16. Allow modifying Version History Per File

    I'm on MacOS using ProtonDrive - because I cannot sync/backup my Documents folder with OneDrive, I wrote a script that zips my Document folder and uploads it to ProtonDrive. It works really well as a backup solution, except I was seeing me use up all my storage. After a bit of investigating, I realized that it was saving every version of the zipped backup (each backup is ~30G, so it was filling up quickly).

    While I would like to keep the 180 day version history on all my files, I would like it to be possible to change this setting…

  18. I'd like to share a photoalbum.

    I'm a hobby-photographer and i mainly bought proton drive to share pictures.
    The problem is, when uploading pictures as files, i can share them, but i can not view a prewiev on my phone, without having to download them. On the other side, when i upload them as pictures, i can not share them easily with friends. I want to share a link, from which they can view and download the pictures, without having to create an account on proton.

    This is just stupid and should not be that hard.

  19. Allow custom domains and branding in file sharing URLs with Proton Drive

    Hi there,

    when I share a folder with a public link, I only get an URL with the following structure:
    https://drive.proton.me/urls/...

    It would be really great if I could use one of my connected custom domains here instead.

    Also, I would love to implement some custom branding on the public-facing page that contains the shared data.
    Right now, there is a "Proton Drive" logo and a link to setup a free account. This could even be connected to the selection of the domain: If I use the "drive.proton.me" URL, the Proton branding could stay intact, and if use "drive.customdomain.com",…

  20. Expand Proton Drive Search to Include Trash, PCs, and Mobile Devices

    As a Visionary Plan user, I use Proton Drive a lot for storing and managing my files. It would be really helpful if the search feature could be expanded to include:

    Trash Folder: Right now, finding deleted files in the Trash is hard because there's no search. Adding search here would make it much easier to recover lost files quickly.
    Files on My PCs and Mobile Devices: Currently, search only works for files inside Proton Drive. If it could also search files on my linked devices, it would save me a lot of time and make managing my files much…
