Easy account switching
At the moment drive (in contrast to mail) does not allow to quickly pull up the side bar, press the user bubble and select another account. It is always required to sign out of drive and sign in with the other account.
In mail, where I use the same setup, 1) my account and 2) my family account and with just a few tips I can switch between the inboxes. Drive on the other hand, does not allow this, there is just a single account that can be signed in.

My Files - Rename or Remove
It looks like all files go into a top level directory called "My Files." Having a space in a path name can cause problems in some software tools and is more difficult to traverse on the command line. I would like to be able to rename the folder to something without a space, or eliminate it completely and manage the top level tree myself.

Shorter urls for documents in drive
I would like to have the links to some spreadsheets and docs in Proton Drive to paste to other documents, but the links copied from browser address bar are too long.
Should the URLs in address bar be redesigned to be shorter to copy and paste in documents while they still look ok instead of the length of a paragraph?
The choice to share for url isn't an option 'cause the docs are supposed to be private.

Allow editing of photos
It would be very useful to be able to edit photos, such as cropping, rotating, and adding filters. It doesn't necessarily need to have very advanced features, just the basics.

Support downloading native Proton Docs through the Proton Drive CLI
The new Proton Drive CLI is great. The ability to programmatically upload and download documents is excellent.
Being able to download native Proton Docs as ODF/MD/DOCX would provide even more benefit, allowing users to essentially use the "Download" functionality that is already available for native Proton Drive docs from the CLI.

Docs page color
I know similar things have been suggested before, but if a dark mode is ever added I'd much rather it affect the UI and not the page itself; I'd like to be able to choose the page color and font color myself.
This is, assuming of course, a non-pageless format is added.

Restore Proton Drive data from a previously synced device
When I set up Proton Drive on a new computer, I would like an option to automatically restore all files and folders that were previously synced from my old computer.
Ideally, Proton Drive should allow users to choose between restoring data from a previously synced device available in their Proton Drive account or setting up the computer as a new device.
This would make it much easier to migrate to a new PC without having to manually configure everything again.

Improve photo management
I’m confident that this would be extremely helpful for everyone having the option to view all photos in the Proton Drive as a single folder. This would automatically make it possible to sync photos with a computer. For this to work, albums would need to be represented as a folder structure.
Advantage:
You can manage your photos on your computer very easily (searching, deleting, editing, sorting into albums, etc.).
In my opinion, implementing this feature would not be very time‑consuming, since many of the required functions already exist.10 votes -
Insert Drawing into Docs
Insert a Drawing into Docs to make basic shapes, lines, to make diagrams (kind of like http://draw.io/ or the google doc drawing)

Ability to "pause" Trash loading/scrolling
Due to lack of search in Trash, today I was in the absurd position of sorting by name to find a file among 10's of thousands, scrolling to it and attempting to click it as it whizzes by because the UI is still loading the file list. I had to play several minutes of what is effectively a stupid game just to select my file.
So at least give us the option to make the list stable by adding items to the end of the list even if it sorted.

Protect Files on Proton Drive Desktop app
Because of the highly secure Proton ecosystem, I want to use Proton Drive to store sensitive information.
At the moment, ALL files and folders uploaded to Proton Drive show on the Proton Drive Desktop app, so anyone having access to the computer can see the files (access to hardware is nowhere nearly as secure as access to Proton Drive on the Web), which defeats the whole purpose and main competitive advantage of using Proton Drive.
Please consider a feature allowing to protect selected files or folders in the Proton Drive, so access to sensitive files/folders is restricted.
Thank you!

A Shared drive for company use
We have started to use Proton in our company next to Google. As long as it is still not fully functional in the same way we will keep things next to eachother. At least supporting the product development of Proton by having a paid subscription!
A small step in the right direction would be to have proper Shared Drives that are 'company owned' instead of user owned. And where you can jointly keep data stored.

Proton Sheets - Reverse plotting order of data
In Proton sheets, introduce a new feature that allows the user change the plotting order of data in charts.
Currently we are forced to consider the way we order the source data, which makes it very difficult to accurate import data and charts from other sources. Especially tangible if a user is trying to migrate data from other services.
Core feature that is missing:
Allow for reversing order of data in both x and y axis3 votes -
Proton Sheets: Add "Split text to columns" feature
Proton Sheets is missing a core spreadsheet feature found in Excel and Google Sheets: the ability to split text in a cell into multiple columns using a delimiter (comma, space, tab, custom character).
In Google Sheets this is implemented as:
- menu option (Data -> Split text to columns)18 votes -
Enable search by file modified date.
Searching Proton Drive is currently by file name. It would be extremely useful if you could also search by file modified date range. This would allow searches like "All files modified in the last month" in addition to file name.

Proton Docs: show full source URLs in printed worksheets
Please add a print option in Proton Docs that lists the full destination of each hyperlink as a numbered source note. A short label is useful on screen, but a paper worksheet needs an address that the reader can type.
For a Bible study worksheet, a source such as https://bible4soul.com/games/bible-crossword/ could appear under the activity as a numbered URL. This is a request for an optional print setting; it should not change the links in the document itself.

Upload of photos order by date of file, not date of upload
In settings, I do not yet have the option of selecting a principle for the order of the photos.
It turns out that by default the photots are being organized by date of upload.
I would like my new uploaded photos to be placed on the basis of the date when the photo was taken, not by the date of upload.2 votes -
Secure IoT Data Vault (EV, Smart Devices & Personal Data)
Please consider adding a secure IoT data vault in Proton Drive. Right now, data from EVs, smart home devices, and wearables is mostly locked inside manufacturer apps or stored on third-party servers, with very little real user control.
It would be extremely valuable to have a dedicated, end-to-end encrypted space to store things like EV battery reports, charging history, device logs, and ownership records.
This kind of data is becoming as sensitive as financial or health information, and users should be able to fully own and back it up privately.
Proton is in a perfect position to solve this—privacy shouldn’t…
