1. More storage capacity with Proton Unlimited

   500GB storage capacity for Proton Unlimited is nowadays quite limited. Since Proton Duo offers 2TB storage, it would be reasonable for Proton Unlimited to have 1TB storage capacity.

2. Search within folder

   Search function to be restricted to the folder currently in. Global search should not be the only option. Many file arrangements have similar names or even the same ones, in different folders.

7. 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.

8. Proton Drive CLI: Content-aware conflict detection for `filesystem upload -c merge`

   Implement content-aware (checksum-based) conflict detection in the merge mode so that byte-identical files are skipped, avoiding redundant uploads, storage duplication, and version history pollution.

   Problem

   The Proton Drive CLI (filesystem upload -c merge) resolves file conflicts by filename only, not by file content. This means byte-identical files (matching checksums) are re-uploaded as new revisions instead of being recognized as unchanged and skipped.

   Reproduction

   1. Set up a local directory ~/test with files
   2. Have corresponding /my-files/test on Proton Drive containing some identical files
   3. Run: proton-drive filesystem upload -c merge ~/test /my-files
   4. Files with identical SHA1 hashes are uploaded again as new revisions

   Expected behavior

   Files with matching checksums should be detected as unchanged and skipped. Only files with different content should create new revisions.

   Actual behavior

   All files in the target directory are uploaded regardless of content match. Version history shows duplicate entries with identical hashes, and storage is consumed redundantly (e.g., one ~4.38 MB file stored twice).

   Impact

   • Unnecessary storage consumption (duplicate revisions for identical content)
   • Cluttered version history with meaningless duplicate entries
   • Wasted bandwidth on re-uploading unchanged files
   • Poor sync efficiency, especially for large directories with many unchanged files

9. Proton Docs: Tables- Adding "Combine / Merge cells" & "Delete cell(s)"

   [Request for Proton Docs: Tables]

   Could you guys consider adding the ability to "combine cells / merge cells" & "delete cell(s)" for Tables in Proton Documents?

   This feature would be extremely helpful for:

   I. Notetaking- creating more customizable & legible tables that can quickly & easily be referenced again in the future.

   II. I ask Lumo a lot of "How-to" questions & found that pasting Lumo's responses directly into Proton Docs works well bc the text copy-pastes over pretty close to its source-formatting.

   To create a Header Row with only one Column Header cell intact (eg, In a 3-column table, keeping the leftmost Column Header cell intact & deleting the center & rightmost Column Header cells).

   III. To create one merged row of cells (eg, in the 4th row of a 3-column table with 10 rows).

   IV. To merge/combine two adjacent row cells together for simplification to make it easier to reference the table data in the future.

   I appreciate your time and consideration. Thank you!
   And, Happy New Year, Proton! =)

11. Proton Docs: Increase File Size Limit

    I have some documents with a lot of images that I'd like to migrate to Proton Docs, and they far exceed the current limit. It'd be nice if the size of the docs could be only limited by how much Proton Drive storage I have left (which is hundreds of GB), instead of 25 MB per doc.

15. Add “Date taken” sorting for photos in Proton Drive folders

    When storing photos in regular Proton Drive folders, there is currently no useful way to sort them chronologically by the date the photo was taken.

    Sorting by “Last modified” does not provide the correct chronological order, especially for photos exported from Apple Photos or imported from other sources.

    Suggestion:
    Add a “Date taken” sorting option for folders containing photos, based on the photo’s EXIF/metadata when available.

    This would make Proton Drive folders much more useful as a simple photo archive, without requiring users to use Proton Photos.

    For files without a valid date-taken value, Proton Drive could fall back to the file creation or modification date.

16. Sharing a Parent Folder with Dedicated Permissions per Subfolder

    My goal is to organize a shared workspace in a cloud storage service with the following structure:

    📁 Work
    ├── 📁 Common ← shared with everyone
    ├── 📁 Alice ← accessible only to Alice
    ├── 📁 Bob ← accessible only to Bob
    └── 📁 Carol ← accessible only to Carol

    I want to share the parent folder Work with all members of the group, so that in their view the shared item appears as a single folder called "Work". However, when they open it, each member should only see the contents they are entitled to access: the Common subfolder (visible and editable by everyone) plus their own personal subfolder. Members should not be able to see or open anyone else's personal subfolder.

    In other words, what I am looking for is a way to share a single parent folder while assigning dedicated, differentiated permissions to its subfolders — ideally with hidden or inaccessible branches, rather than just greyed-out entries.
    Why This Design

    From a user-experience perspective, this is the most natural arrangement:

    Everyone works inside one clearly identified space ("Work") instead of receiving several disconnected shared items scattered in their "Shared with me" section.
    Each person keeps a private area for their own files without forcing the owner of the account to manage and share four separate folders as independent elements.
    New members can be onboarded by granting them access to the parent structure with the appropriate subset of subfolder permissions.
    

    The Current Limitation

    In the services I have tested (including Proton Drive), folder sharing permissions are inherited top-down as an indivisible block: whoever receives access to a parent folder automatically gets access to all of its contents, at every level of the tree. There is no option to:

    hide a subfolder from certain recipients,
    exclude specific users from a branch of the shared tree,
    or assign per-subfolder permissions within the same shared item.
    

    An alternative approach — sharing each subfolder separately and using naming conventions like "Work – Common", "Work – Alice", etc. — works functionally, but produces multiple disconnected shared items instead of the single, coherent folder view I am aiming for.

    Password-protected public links do not solve it either, since access there is tied to knowing a secret rather than to the recipient's identity, and it cannot be revoked selectively.
    What I Am Looking For

    A service, feature, or proposed design that supports per-subfolder access control inside a single shared parent folder, specifically:

    A single shared element ("Work") visible to all invited members.
    Per-subfolder role-based permissions (e.g., Common: read/write for everyone; Alice: read/write for Alice only; others: no access, ideally invisible).
    Selective revocation: removing a person's access to one subfolder without affecting the rest of the structure.
    End-to-end encryption would be a strong plus, given the privacy-oriented services where this use case arises.
    

    My goal is to organize a shared workspace in a cloud storage service with the following structure:

    📁 Work
    ├── 📁 Common ← shared with everyone
    ├── 📁 Alice ← accessible only to Alice
    ├── 📁 Bob ← accessible only to Bob
    └── 📁 Carol ← accessible only to Carol

    I want to share the parent folder Work with all members of the group, so that in their view the shared item appears as a single folder called "Work". However, when they open it, each member should only see the contents they are entitled to access: the Common subfolder (visible… more

17. Decouple Proton Drive from Proton's default email address

    As I understand it, Proton Drive uses the encryption key of the default email address in your Proton account to keep your drive volume end-to-end encrypted. From my perspective as a user, this poses a significant design issue, as it presents several problems:

    • You cannot accept invitations to collaborate on folders or documents sent to an email that isn't the original email address used to encrypt your drive. The invitation will still appear in the Proton Drive app as pending, but you won't ever be able to accept it. Therefore, collaboration is no longer privacy-friendly, as you may need to expose your primary email to people you don't want to share it with.

    • There isn't a way to change the address associated with Proton Drive; the only solution offered by Proton's support is to wipe your volume and recreate it with a new address. However, this would require you to download all the content first and then re-upload it to the new volume.

    • The email address you used to create your Drive account is exposed, even in files shared with a public link. You don't have the option to hide your email when sharing files or choose an alias instead, defeating the mission of Proton.

    The email address of the Proton Drive account should be configurable and not default to the account's email, allowing the user to change the email address when needed. Until this is solved, Proton Drive is a broken solution for most advanced users seeking private and collaborative cloud storage.

    For example, one user may start using Proton with a default address using one of the Proton domains (example@proton.me) and later decide to change it to use their own domain (example@example.com). This user won't be able to use Proton Drive normally anymore after switching their emails.

18. Paste Markdown into Docs

    You support copying from Docs as Markdown. But copying markdown into Docs doesn't convert it to formatted text—it stays in markdown, making it hard to read.

    Please extend copying markdown to a two-way - copying from docs as markdown and pasting markdown to docs.

    Quite useful if copying from a markdown editor like chatgpt, github or else to Proton Docs

19. Simple finename search

    Currently so search files within ProtonDrive (web) you need to index the entire drive content, which can take a long time.
    I understand that local indexing is necessary for zero-access reasons.

    It would be nice to have a simpler search (only on filenames and metadata?) that could be ready in a fraction of the time.
    Searching within files content is good, but sometimes having a quick name or date search is all you need.
