  1. QOL for Proton Docs: Headers and text default formatting

    I think it would be neat if we can set our preferred default fonts and text sizes for every NEW headers and subsequent texts.

    It's a hassle having to switch them over from Arial to the other fonts I'm more comfortable with.

  2. Edit file metadata (including photos)

    Don't need much. Currently, the Photos portion of Drive doesn't have any capability beyond view photo.

    I would like to be able to upload lots of photos and re-arrange them/fix metadata issues.

    Primarily, Windows has taken some of my old photos I've edited/restored and made the Date Modified to today's date, when the photo date taken was 1965. But when I upload to Photos, it appears as today's date.

    I should be able to easily go in and correct these mistakes.

  3. Replacing modified files on Proton Drive Android

    Since currently the only way to modify a file on Android is to download it, modify it, and then upload it, the fact that when you upload the modified file, instead of replacing it, it duplicates it.

    This makes things difficult because after the upload, you have to delete the previous file and rename the modified file.

    It would therefore be very useful if, when you upload a file already in the cloud, it was replaced instead of being duplicated. This would make things much easier.

  4. Add Conditional Sync Pause Feature for Proton Drive

    I use Proton Drive to back up certain files for a game. However, it causes significant performance issues when the game is running due to constant synchronization. Currently, I have to manually pause the syncing, which requires me to remember to manually sync the files later.

    A feature that pauses syncing based on specific conditions would be very helpful. These conditions could include:

    • When a window is in full-screen mode
    • When certain processes are running (like games)

    This feature would benefit not only gamers but also anyone who needs a stable internet connection during critical tasks.

  5. Proton Docs: Virtual Collection or Notebook

    In the Proton Docs app, enable users to add docs to collections. A collection ...

    (1) ... provides a list view of all its docs (irrespective of their actual location within the Drive folder structure), and
    (2) ... can be opened and edited in a single browser tab, e.g. by displaying each doc as a page (creating something like a notebook).

    Use case:

    I maintain individual 'Overview' documents for topics such as: bank accounts, various insurances, summer holiday each year, etc.

    Obviously, these documents are in separate folders within Proton Drive (alongside related materials like invoices).

    Now, I’d like the…

  6. I'd like comment/tag functions for files/photos/videos on the drive

    I'd like more options for personalization and organization of files. I'd like to add hyperlinks to sources. Tags for general ideas, like "cats" without needing that to be in the title of the file.

  7. Arm linux support for proton-bridge

    Currently there are no available builds for running proton-bridge on a ARM device with Linux on it. I'd love to see support for it since now i can't have my mail in 1 application but need to use a seperate web interface for only my proton based mail.

  8. Linking cloud folders directly.

    Can we not just share a link of the folder in Onedrive and the servers download from one another? Why do we have to download to our own computer first? It takes more energy globally, adding heat as well as stealing our time in our off days. Efficiency is not there.

  9. Make iOS/iPadOS Drive app more powerful

    The iOS/iPadOS Drive app is fine, but I find myself often gravitating towards the web app as it’s more power user friendly. I can quickly jump to any folder by expanding the folder tree, which doesn’t exist at all on mobile. Uploads are much more reliable whereas they often fail in the mobile app.

  10. Show sync progress

    The desktop app could show the sync progress (files synced/total files to be synced) in the Activity tab. That would make it easier to guess how long it might take for the whole syncing process to get completed.

  11. True cloud sync akin to Dropbox or OneDrive

    Instead of just allowing machine-specific sync to the cloud, allow for a cloud-storage option which multiple machines can all sync to & from bidirectionally, allowing all computers to have the same set of files. Add one in one machine, it should become available in all machines. Delete one in one machine, it should get deleted everywhere.

    Something similar to Dropbox or OneDrive. Makes managing files much more seamless and easier instead of having to try and find which machine I first synced the file on.

    This will give a true alternative for users to move out of OneDrive/Dropbox and adopt…

  12. Photo-section: filename visible while hovering tile

    It would be very convenient while in the photo-section, the filename of the photo would appear (i.e. after a second) while hovering the tile.
    It would make it much easier to select the proper photo while multiple versions of the same photo are available.

  14. The ability to preview content inside archives. (zip, rar, etc.)

    As the title says. I find this feature to be of great use to those of us who clutter lots of files inside archives. I find it a bit annoying that proton drive doesn't support said feature when competitors like Mega and Dropbox do.

  15. Distractionfree writing. Ability to add Chapters and see titles in side column.

    Hi,
    could you add distraction free writing in docs? Google Docs has this option, would love to have it here. Full screen writing would be a big plus.
    Ability to add chapters and see them in the side column. Ability to move them around, i.e. chapter 3 goes to chapter 2 spot etc.

  17. Download and Upload speed limiter

    In EU most of the countries has bad internet over ASDL, so limiting upload and download speed while syncing files is important, because to big upload can kill whole home network download and vice versa. For example on speed asdl like I have I can upload 2000Kb/s but without limit it can go up to 2300kb/s which kills my internet connection. So I can only use cloud disks which had these limiters build in. For example, Mega, Dropbox, OneDrive and Tresorit has it, but not proton.

  19. default font, size et al for Proton Docs

    I would love for users to be able to set their default font, size et al so they see all documents that way. My workflow is: write in Obsidian > Proton Docs > Obsidian.MD for publish and archive.

  20. Low Resolution Place Holders For Photos On Phone

    I don't know how feasible this is, but I would love to leave iCloud photo backup entirely for PD, but iCloud allows me to offload all photos and videos into the cloud leaving behind a low resolution thumbnail placeholder so I can still look through all my photos, while still saving memory. Its a life saver for phone storage, but also very useful as I want access to all my photos. Can this be done!? I would contend one of the most prominent reasons why people resort to photo backups is to save space!

    Thanks. Great work on all the…
