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.

Link to a Proton Drive File in Proton Sheet
Request the ability, when creating a link in Proton Sheet, to directly retrieve the link to a file in Proton Drive, not just external links.
Currently, to do this, we have to create public sharing links for our Proton Drive files, which is both inconvenient and not very secure if we share our Proton Sheet.

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?

[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…15 votes -
local album to proton album
The new Albums are awesome, however having to manage albums in my phone gallery and proton manually is a major design flaw. Please make it so one can sync specific local folders to proton-folders automatically, so they can be shared. This slightly cuts into this: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932839-proton-drive/suggestions/49920087-shared-photo-library

Add page size options to Proton Docs
Proton Docs should support standard page sizes such as A4, US Letter, Legal, and other common formats.
When importing documents from Google Docs, especially resumes and academic documents, the layout can change significantly because there is no way to define the intended page size.
Being able to select a page size is essential for documents that are meant to be printed, exported to PDF, or kept to a specific number of pages.

Please allow users to reorder photos manually
I would like to be able to manually reorder photos that have incorrect time stamps. The photo storage is useless to me without this feature, and storing photos was the main reason that I signed up for proton drive.

Allow hiding the user email in Proton Docs to avoid leaking personal data
When sharing a document created in Proton Drive with another person, if the Proton user makes a comment, the original email of the account e.g., user@protonmail.com is leaked. This is a problem in my view, particularly when an inbox has multiple aliases and domains and the user does not want to leak their personal Proton email. Please allow users to hide this information altogether when sharing documents or at least choose which alias to display. Thanks.

Search should find folders in addition to files
When searching proton drive, it doesn't appear to find folders with the search word in the folder name. It would be better if search found folders as well. Its common to have downloads with unmemorable names grouped in a folder with a memorable name. If search doesn't find the folder, it can be very difficult to find the desired files.

Add photo to album without opening the album
Currently, when I select photos and then add them to an album, this album is opened. So, when I want to add further photos to the album, I need to go all the way back to the photo overview and find the place I left. It would be great if there was an option to add photos to an album while staying exactly where one is in the photo library.

Proton Docs - Precise Document History
As of now, proton docs only shows a snapshot of what changes were made historically. It doesn't show minor corrections or mistakes the same way Google's Version History does. It's a useful feature that combats AI generated documents, and instead shows a more precise version of what changes were made.

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!

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.
