Add CTRL + SHIFT + Z for redo
In docs the default keyboard shortcut for redo is CTRL + Y. Which is fine but most software also support the CTRL + SHIFT + Z keyboard shortcut.
I would like to be able to configure this or that both keyboard shortcuts are supported for the redo action.

Allow sharing with Proton email aliases
Currently in Proton Drive, when I try to share a file with someone who is using a Proton alias — for example, foo.bar681@passinbox.com — I get an error message:
"Inviting someone with a Proton or SimpleLogin domain is not permitted."
Why this restriction? Why, in order to receive an invitation to share a Drive file, must we expose our primary email address?

Remove requirement for keyring for Proton CLI so it can be used on headless servers
Currently the new Proton Drive CLI requires libsecret and a keyring (gnome-keyring, kwallet, etc) which, if you attempt to install on a minimal headless Ubuntu server, pulls in over 50 package dependencies a lot of them for GUI based systems. Since this is a CLI tool it should not require GUI packages to use I suggest providing a "--headless" or "--no-keyring" flag for the CLI which does not depend on libsecrets/keyrings so the CLI can be used on headless servers. There are many other CLI tools that do this securely including rclone which supports Proton Drive.

Share file, but don't allow download or screenshot
Changes to the share file in proton drive that allows people to view, but not download a file to retain ownership of data but allow others to verify.
Could be useful when sharing identity documents, contracts etc, but you don't necessarily want others to keep a copy of the data.
Would also be nice to use some form of browser DRM protection to prevent screenshots as well.

Universal permalink
As a Proton Drive web user, I want a single, permanent “universal” link per file that is scoped to “anyone with existing access,” so that:
- users who already have access can open the file directly via the link,
- users who do not have access are shown a clear option to request access from the owner,
- I can use the same link myself as a fast internal shortcut (for example from a Notes or Todo app).Acceptance criteria:
1. Each file page provides a “Copy universal link (anyone with existing access)” action.
2. The link is permanent and…3 votes -
Folder "shared by link" with photos should have a gallery view
If I have a folder (not album under "Photos") with photos, it can appear as a gallery and I can easily see the photos. If I make a "shared link" and send it to someone else who is not logged in, it only appears as a list of files. They can't see all photos at once and they have to scroll through them one by one to see them. I think, overall, it would make sense to have the gallery view in as an option in shared links. (This is not about Albums)
I often take photos for others and…

Basic Highlighting!
The highlighting feature as-is is very limited: why can't I just choose the background color and the text color separately? I would literally like to "highlight" a section of text in yellow, and I can't just pick black text with yellow background. Please allow more basic options or basic flexibility, instead of only a certain pre-built text / color combinations. Thanks!

[Proton Drive – Photos Web] Do not redirect user to album after adding photo(s)
Current Behavior:
When adding one or more photos to an album via the Proton Drive Photos web interface, the user is automatically redirected to the destination album.Expected Behavior:
The user should remain in the Photos view after adding photo(s) to an album, consistent with the behavior already implemented in the mobile apps (at least iOS, I didn't check the Android on).Problem Statement:
This redirect creates significant friction when organizing photos spread across a long time period. For each add action, the user is forced to:
- Get redirected to the album
- Click "Back"
- Navigate back to…8 votes -

Improve the speed of syncing.
The speed of syncing between devices must improve. I can take some photos and its not synced to my computer 2 hrs later. It is rather annoying when I want to work with those photos on my computer and I have to wait a long time before i can access the photos on my computer. I use wifi and also allowing sync with mobile data. The photo tagging should also be optional. I have organized my photos and dont want anything added neither to folders or photos. I dont want googles annoying organizing template. I use android, linux and windows.

Upload Only Sharable Link
Right now, one can create a Proton Drive folder where people can have view-only access or view and edit access.
One option I use all the time with a competitor is upload-only access. I provide a link to people where they can upload a file to me, but cannot see any other files in that folder. It's great way for people to send files to me securely, even very large files.
The interface would allow someone to select/drag files in their browser, and enter some information about themselves (name and/or email address) and then hit "Upload". This would load those…

Fix inability to copy formulas from cell to cell correctly in sheet converted from Excel
If I enter a NEW formula in Sheets and copy it to a new cell, the formula updates automatically. But if I try to copy an EXISTING formula in a Sheet converted from an Excel file, the formula does not update. This means that my existing Excel files are mostly useless after conversion to Proton Sheets. I just can't adopt Proton when this kind of limitation exists.

Revamp Docs's download feature
When I try to export my document every single download item is lacking expected quality. I wanted to create a simple user manual for a small app with screenshots, but I can not seem to make a proper usable export from it.
.docx have broken images and bad formatting
.html have bad formatting as well
.md is just an .md file without the images in the document, it should be a zip with image folder and [img] tag
plain .txt works but it is pointless in this case
.pdf is just "print to pdf" with browser specific headers that the…

Open folders with just one click (browser)
In the webbrowser, you currently need to double-click in order to open a folder, single-clicking only selects the folder. I'm a 30yo digital native and find this unintitive for browser-behaviour, especially since the selecting-functionality already exists in form of the checkboxes that appear when hovering, and I have witnessed many older folks taking a lot of time to figure out how to open a folder because of this. So I suggest getting rid of this second selecting-functionality, and open folders with just one click.
(I'm aware Google Drive has the same behaviour, Dropbox and OneDrive don't and I find it…

Proton Sheets - Editing Cells with multiple lines
When trying to add multiple lines in the cell edit dialog box, while the bar at the top (fx bar?) has up and down arrows to scroll between lines. This can be a little cumbersome. Please allow for vertical expansion of the edit bar.
Web based spreadsheets Excel and Google Sheets support this. As well as client install Excel and Libre calc all allow this. I would say this is fair justification of the utility of this feature and a request for feature parity.
