  2. Upload photos manually without backup

    It is no longer possible to manually upload photos via the mobile app. This can be done via the website and also with older versions of the app. Now, to upload photos, you must activate your phone's backup feature.

  5. 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…

  6. 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!

  9. Proton Sheets: Re-Order Conditional Formatting Rules

    Allow users to re-order conditional formatting rules in Proton Sheets (Eg drag bottom rule up to the second top position.) This matters because rules apply on a hierarchical basis so top rules are applied before the bottom ones.

  10. Allow syncing to same folder location for multiple windows/macOs/linux user accounts

    I am working with two different user accounts on my windows machine. One for work, one for personal stuff. I want to use the Proton Drive for both accounts. Unfortunately when I tried to set up Proton Drive on the second account to sync with the same folder I got an error message instead:
    "Invalid sync folder: The folder must be empty before setting up sync"

    It wouldn't make any sense to choose a different folder and have everything twice on my computer

    Might be related to https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932839-proton-drive/suggestions/50135475-reconnect-desktop-app-to-existing-folder

  11. 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.

  13. Make Photos on Drive more like a Photo Viewer over File System

    The photos viewer is nice but it would still be good to view the photos as normal files as part of the file system and makes them syncable to computers.

    This would allow the user to manipulate the photos once they're in Proton Drive and limited to the UI. Once you upload them, it's almost like they're inaccessible to anything but viewing.

    It would also allow the user to organise/rename/edit the photos on their local computer rather than them being "hidden" away and only accessible in the UI. Although there are albums for organisation, folder based organisation would also be…

  14. Proton Scribe in Proton Docs

    I recently upgraded to Proton Duo purely to get access to Proton Scribe. I just assumed it would be built into both the email client and Proton Docs but now see this is sadly not the case.

    Given how tech and office environments are developing, including this functionality is arguably already critical to keep Proton docs competitive and attractive to users.

    Please consider adding a Proton Scribe feature in Proton Docs -- it would hugely simplify and improve my work, and I'm sure that of many others.

  15. Selective photo backup

    Currently all photos are automatically backed up when using the feature. I would like the option to select which photos I think should be backed up when I've made some photos during the day.

  17. Add Atkinson Hyperlegible fonts to Proton Drive apps for better accessibility

    While the font selections are currently lacking, the need for accessible fonts such as the Atkinson Hyperlegible collection or fonts designed for dyslexics is critical. Those with accessibility needs are particularly vulnerable in the current political climate in North America, and accessibility to privacy tools is thus critical.

  18. Proton Docs: Different Bullet Points for Different Levels of Indentation

    For example, the default bullet is the filled-in circle (●), and if I press "tab" to indent, the bullet becomes the outline-only circle (○), and if I press "tab" again, the bullet becomes a square (■), etc. Currently, we only have 2 different types of bullets.

  20. Format currency cells according to the currency symbol entered

    If I enter "£3.00" in a cell, Proton Sheets will turn it into $3. It changes the currency but also removes the decimal places I entered. This feels kind of broken. I don't see how or why this would be expected or acceptable behaviour.
