  2. Restrict upload size for shared directory

    I see as reasonable to restrict size of folder provided to someone to upload file(s) for me. I don't want to get short with space because of "my friend's" stupid idea to upload nonsenses.

  3. Please market your upgrade plans less aggresivly

    I think you market your upgrade plans too much and is should be cut down to when the thing you are suggesting to fix is actually a problem for example I only want the get an ad about getting more storage when I actually run out not every time I open proton drive. It would be a more pleasant uter experience not to have to click away all ads before actually getting to use what you want.

  4. Consistent Styling

    Disregarding that Docs and Sheets do not have any selectable themes like in the main Drive page, there are two inconsistencies:
    1. Tooltips in Drive show above the mouse cursor while tooltips in Docs and Sheets pop up below the cursor.
    This is actually also an accessibility issue as using a slightly larger mouse cursor will partially hide any information the tooltip was trying to show
    2. Docs and Sheets have inconsistent menus. Sheets have the conventional "File, Edit, View, ... , Help" menus while Docs lack many features to fill menus but hides everything else in an overflow menu.…

  5. Less Advertising

    I recently started using Proton as I have seen various sources praise the environment and so far I am liking Proton. However, while I understand that you guys need to make money and you rely on those who choose your paid services, the pop-ups and such cheapen the experience. I am considering the paid subscription because you guys have a good deal going on but perhaps ease up on the pop-ups. Same goes for the advertising emails. Thank you so much for your attention on this matter.

  6. File management paradigm change

    Hum... I can't edit nor delete my first post about that, so I try republishing it... 🤔

    ♻️ File management paradigm change
    This is a repost (deleted my former suggestion) as suggested by another user, to make it more clear, thank you. ❤️
    I'm a curious, sometimes geek with nerd outbursts, user exploring and using newest technologies since 40 years.

    Unfortunately, I still see very old concepts and ideas still being implemented today by default, not because they're good, but because we're suffering from operational blindness.

  7. Fix Underline Bug

    If you have a sentence such as: "This is a sentence", and you mark the sentence with an underline, the line under the bolded text will be slightly above the rest of the line, e.g., the underline will not be even.

  10. Drag and drop files into sidebar (Web version)

    At the moment (in the web version) one can only drag and drop files from the list of files to a folder in the top bar (My files > folder 1 > Folder 1.1, etc), but I need to be able to drag and drop files directly into folders in the left sidebar.

    Another thing important for this feature to work well is to be able to expand the left sidebar, so the entire folder names are displayed.

    ps. does this feature exist in the desktop app yet? I'm not using the app yet because my mac is too old...

  12. Fix the Photos Sort Order Bug

    (NB Photos in browser: android app seems to sort properly.)

    I have many photos, mainly jpegs, that pre-date the digital revolution. I have scanned/re-photographed these old photos either from negative or print and have fixed up the "date taken" to correspond with when the original photo was taken. For people with full family collections this is probably not unusual.

    I am trying my best to migrate my photo library to Proton, but the its the little things that are annoying: the main photos sort by reverse date taken, UNTIL you get to about 1970 (I have tested this) - older…

  14. proton sheets

    The autofill feature for dates doesn't work in portuguese. If I try to use it for days of the week in english, it works fine, but when trying in portuguese, it just copies the days of the week, instead of continuing to list them.

  15. Sheets - inputing parameters for formula with keyboard resets previous formula

    I input the formula, in my example it is: '=VLOOKUP('

    Then, with keyboard, I select a cell with proper key, as the syntax of the formula requires.

    Then I input ";" and start selecting the cells for the second parameter.

    However, when I do this, my next selection replaces the previous parameter instead of adding the second one. It makes keyboard-centric workflow simply impossible.

  17. Consolidated Download Notifications for Multiple Files

    When downloading files one by one, the app currently creates a separate notification for each file. This quickly clutters the notification area and makes it inconvenient to track how many files have already been downloaded.

    It would be better to group these into a single notification that updates with the current count of downloaded files, or alternatively replaces the previous notification with a new one showing the updated total.

  18. Proton Sheets - Allow Charts to be moved to different sheets

    I would really like charts to be able to be moved/pasted to different sheets. There are extremely limited cases where I would want my charts on the same sheet the data is stored on, so this is severely limiting their usability for me.

  19. Hide identity of uploader

    Currently, a publicly shared folder in proton drive shows the address of whomever uploaded it, and this address cannot be changed to a different one than that originally tied to your account as far as I can tell.

    This can be gotten around by uploading from a private window with no login, however it would be nice if it was simply an option to change or hide the identifier, at least for those who the folder is shared to or used a public share link.

  20. Synchronization with multiple PCs

    I always have the same folder on my PCs for the data I need, and I'd like to synchronize this folder. Unfortunately, this isn't possible with Proton Drive. When setting up Proton Drive on my second PC, I keep getting the message "Invalid synchronization folder; the folder must be empty before setting up synchronization."

    This is a significant limitation that's only acceptable with free, open-source drives.
