Hidden app data folders
I'd like to propose the addition of a feature allowing applications to create a secret, hidden folder within Proton Drive for storing application-specific data. Similar to Google Drive's app data folder, this would enhance security, isolate application data, improve user privacy, and align with industry best practices.
Google Drive's app data folder:

Segmentation - Multiple Drives Per Account
The ability to completely segment a drive and have multiple drives per account would be a good feature. It would ensure that you could share and/or sync specific drives to a desktop app without the risk of unintended sharing data stored on the other drive(s). Additional drives could be purchased as an add-on or users could elect to split their available account drive capacity across multiple drives.

Open file with a third party app on mobile
Need to just being able to open a file with a third party application.
Tap on menu file, choosing "Open with ..." , selecting appropriate application. That's all.
Now, if I want to open eg. a passwords file I need to download it, opening a file manager app, selecting folder and opening downloaded file.

Memories feature
One part of Google Photos that I will miss is the "Memories" feature. Not the creepy cloud-based processing, but just the notification to scroll through some of my old photos.
It doesn't have to be fancy, and you can play the same cheesy jingle each time!
(Unless there's a workaround and I can use another app that can safely read local photos while Proton Drive backs them up securely?)

Detailed Disk Space Insight
I've been exploring the storage options, and while the current interface allows me to see the total storage usage, it doesn't provide insights into what is consuming the disk space.
I'd like to suggest an enhancement to the storage management feature. It would be immensely helpful if users could view a breakdown of their storage usage, specifically identifying the space consumption of emails and ProtonDrive. Having a detailed overview would empower users to manage their disk space.

Android app; open file from synced folder
Google Drive allows me to open a file that has been synced on my Android device. Currently, Proton Drive allows me to sync a file to my device but I cannot open the file from the synced directory, edit the file, and then save it back for auto-upload to the cloud. There is little benefit to syncing to my device if I must then "download" to perform an edit and then "upload" the file again.

Shortkey Ctrl+Alt+D to open a quick search bar on Windows
The user enters a shortkey like Ctrl+Alt+D to pop up a search bar to find a file.
The idea is the same as Google Drive's shortkey Ctrl+Alt+G on Windows.
This is a time saver!

Replace file metadata modified date by upload date. Or add column for upload date
Metadata modified date could be irrelevant when backup to cloud (example: it could be a file with lot of read without modifying it or metadata got deleted and defaulted to some date).
Either replace or add a column for date uploaded to Proton Drive could be very helpful when sorting through file.8 votes -
Create folder shortcuts (so you don't have to make a duplicate)
In Google Drive, you can "Add Shortcut" of an existing folder so you don't have to duplicate folder content (you can enter the same folder from multiple locations). Similarly, macOS allows you to "Make Alias" of a folder, & in Linux you can create symlinks of folders. Would be great to be able to do this in Proton Drive!

Allow to download all data from photo and drive
Recently I had to remove an address and all of its associated data, the issue is that downloading all of my data was painful, as a lot of the downloads took, a while, and the download often failed. Forcing me to manually select smaller folders, and download those, then merge them.
As for photos scrolling through all photos and selecting each month, it appears as if there is no "select range" key binding.
It would be useful in general to have a "take out" feature for both drive and photos.

File REPLACEMENT functionality
Please add a button that allows us to replace any file with a newer one.
Current Problem: After we have generated a link for a file, and we want to upload a newer/updated version of that same file, we have to upload a completely new file and generate a new link. This is problematic if we have already shared that link with folks and don't want to send them piles upon piles of new links for the same or updated file. Just let us upload a newer version to that file with a button in the bar at the top,…

Annotations for files/directories
The ability to tag directories and files with annotations, even if they're just limited to being very short notes, would be very useful for tasks pertaining to organizing file collections, and overall preventing long-term forgetfulness that tends to come with that (example: it's 2030 "why did I keep these files around? They look deprecated... oh, right here's a note I left six years ago reminding myself why I shouldn't delete these. Okay then.")

Proton Send
Basically, something like Bitwarden Send or Firefox Send:
https://bitwarden.com/products/send/
https://send.vis.ee/ (Fork of the discontinued Firefox Send)Following scenario: You just want to quickly and privately share a file with someone. Currently you would have to upload it to Proton Drive, manually create a shared link, and remember to manually delete the file.
It would be really convenient to have a shortcut for uploading an expiring, immediately shareable file.
