  1. Multi account on Proton Drive PC application and access history in docs by email

    Multi accounts on Proton Drive PC application (like Proton Mail) would be very helpful for users who have more than 1 account to manage, we need to make loggout and login again on Drive creating every time a new folder in PC w/ different names to access the documments on the cloud. it makes everything confuse and impractical.

    Additionally, I suggest to implement an access history for docs by email/PC-ID and an easy buttom to download the registers (for controllers/creators) - very useful for business access control and compliance.

  2. Make Photos in "My Files" visible in the Photos section and vice versa

    Make Photos in "My Files" visible in the Photos section and vice versa.
    Managing Photos as a subset of Files is a fairly standard use case if you want to Synch with Desktop (which is critical to me).

  5. Sheets: Better support for manually inputting durations

    I really like that Proton Sheets properly supports time-only data and durations. However, manually inputting a duration is a bit of a hassle, as the underlying data seems to be in fractions of a day: If I want my duration cell to display e.g. "8:00:00", I have to input 0.33333 or =8/24. It would be nice if Sheets recognized some common time durations, so that e.g. 8h, 8h30, 8.5h or 8:30 is converted to the proper duration value.

  6. Android/Photos: Store separately separate synced folders. Don't intermix Photos with Screenshots.

    I miss folders under Photos section. And it would be fine to make their names match folders I selected for sync on phone.

    Otherwise my photos and screenshots are all in single Photos folder. And they are too many to sort them manually between "Albums".

  7. Proton Sheets - edit chart axis range

    In Proton sheets, when I make a chart out of my data, the Y-axis always starts from 0. However, if all my values are in the thousands, this is unnecessary and hides the differences between my values, as they all look similar in this zoomed-out view. So, I would like to edit the range of the chart axes by setting min and max values to my liking.

  8. Make privately shared Proton Docs with view only rights work

    I'm posting this as an idea or suggestion because they no longer work unless shared via a public link or with edit access. View-only, privately shared Proton Docs show a blank page instead of the content.

  9. Add Commenter role to allow commenting without editing

    In addition to Editor and Viewer, it would be great to have a Commenter role available at the Doc and folder level, as in Google Drive.

    I'd love to allow collaborators to comment on, but not edit, any Proton Doc in a shared folder.

  10. 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.

  11. Enable Syncing with external Drives

    I need the feature to be able to sync not just local folders on your PC, but also from external drives attached to my PC.

    I read that this can pose a safety threat. But I still very much like to have all my data stored on a cloud and a physical drive in case I lose access or have any other problems with my cloud. I am currently using pCloud, and they allow that. That is quite the essential feature for me.

    So please allow syncing with external drives as well.

  12. Standardise file and folder sorting across apps

    The Proton Drive web app sorts folders in the left-hand file tree lexicographically but sorts files and folders in the right-hand folder content area numerically. Files and folders in the iOS/iPadOS app are sorted lexicographically.

    Let’s assume I have a folder that itself has twenty folders, each named 1 to 20. The web app sorts them as follows in the left-hand folder tree:

    1,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,2,20,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

    However, the web app sorts them as follows in the right-hand folder content area:

    1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20

    This is confusing. The sorting method should be standardised across all areas of all apps. Should that standard be sorting numbers…

  14. Allow to import photos from a synced folder

    The new landed import photos feature in Proton drive only allows importing photos that are not in a synced folder. This doesn't make sense, as photos are stored separately in Proton Drive. Therefore, not allowing the import of such folders makes it impossible to move photos from the Documents Drive folder to the photo section.

  15. Photo backup from camera - allow choice of destination (to drive or photos)

    Allow choice of destination (either a Proton Drive folder of choice OR Proton Photos) for the phone camera photo backup feature.

    It currently only allows a sync to the Proton Photos feature, which is

    A) very limited (see all the comments in the community).

    B) doesn’t allow management of photos across the "drive" and “photos" feature of proton.

    C) This also makes sorting and archiving photos collated from different sources and placed into both drive and photos in the Proton architecture, VERY difficult.

    In addition, allow drag and drop sorting between Proton drive and Proton photos. Even though this may…

  16. Allow Proton Business admins to (jointly) manage file and folder shares

    I'm using Proton Business Suite. In Proton Drive, I can share files and folders with people in my team. When I share a file or folder, I can assign people as "viewers" or "editors".

    I certain cases, I would like to further elevate these privileges to "admin": for my collaborators to have insight in and control over the sharing of this/these files and folders.

    This would effectively create the possibility of a fully "shared drive" (in the Google Drive sense of the word, for example), where people take full co-ownership (administrator rights) on the folder.

    Even better if I (as…

  17. 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?

  19. Proton Docs: download to docx and PDF does not work properly, format is messed up

    The formatting in Proton Docs looks beautiful, however as soon as I export it to docx, the formatting is messed up.
    Also, with the download to PDF the format is changed (puts content on 2 pages even though there would be enough space on one). I would expect the format to stay exactly as I see it in the Proton Docs when I export it.
    Therefore, it's not usable for printing a doc / exporting a doc. Currently, it's not an option to completely change to Proton Docs.

  20. Grid view option for share links

    When opening a folder shared via a link, the files are presented in list view. There is no option for grid view. It would be nice to have the option to switch to grid view.

    Users with Proton accounts can save the shared folder and view it from the "Shared with me" tab in Proton Drive. There it is possible to choose grid view. Users without Proton accounts do not have this option.
