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.

Proton Sheets - Formulas ex ods/xlsx files returns errors
Doing a copy/paste from an ods/xlsx file returns errors where formulas where introduced (#Name!]...
... and it doesn't overtake the formatting (bold, underline, etc.).It's better to start from scratch when it goes about formulas/formatting.

Auto trim Trash item older the XX days
Compared to other Web Drive providers, Proton Drive lacks a feature where items whose 'Deleted Time' exceeds a certain threshold (i.e. 30 days) get automatically deleted by the system.
There are a number of reasons as to why this might be so. One possible reason could be that, due to data encryption on Proton's side, they cannot view certain metadata of the file, such as its 'Deleted Time'. This would then exclude any attempts by the server to perform housekeeping duties.The solution is to move the deletion routine into the user clients instead. All the server has to do…

Be able to edit files using local apps and store back to Protondrive
Would be nice to be able to work with files directly in protondrive (in essence have protondrive as a folder on my computer). So I can open the files and save them back to PD.

Ensure I can select and upload multiple files and folders at once, without having to upload files one by one (mobile)
Currently the mobile app on IpadOS and Android doesn’t support the upload and of an entire folder of files or photos. It also doesn’t support an easy way to multi-select files via a swipe, like the Os prescribes.
Use case: When I export photos from Lightroom I want to upload them in bulk. Currently, on the web, I can use the OS-Level multi-select behavior to launch an upload of an entire folder. On the apps this is not possible, especially on IpadOS this functionality is very rudimentary. Without this feature, the apps are useless for me.

Make it easy to browse photos that are stored only in the cloud
I can easily use Dropbox to browse photos that I've stored in the cloud. As soon as I tap on any item in a given list of images, Dropbox automatically generates a low-resolution version of that photo and serves it up to me in a preview window that is located right next to the list of images. Dropbox probably automatically starts generating previews in the background for whatever image folder I'm currently viewing, because I can quickly browse my entire photo collection just by swiping left or right in that preview window.
The web interface (but not the Apple mobile…

Backup of .TMP files
I recently learned through your Customer Support service that Proton Drive won't back up files with the .TMP extension, as it considers them temporary files.
The issue is, I have a program stored in my Proton Drive that contain files with a .TMP extension, but I know for a fact that they are not temporary, but essential for the program to work.
My suggestion is to either remove this restriction entirely, or to add a Settings option to allow users who select it to sync temporary files as well.

Add Simple Diagram Feature in Proton Docs
Hi Proton team,
It would be great to have a simple built-in diagram feature in Proton Docs — something lightweight to create quick flowcharts or concept maps directly in a document. Nothing complex, just basic shapes and connections to visualize ideas easily without leaving the editor.
And if you ever need someone to build it, I’m available! 😄
Thanks for considering it!

API Checksum
I keep most of my personal/project files in a folder structure that 'lives' in the cloud, but has a full offline mirror on my main devices (desktop and laptop). From my point of view this is an essential quality of life thing, and I have no idea how other people survive without doing this.
The problem I have now is that I'm on linux, automating my mirroring with rclone. Rclone is great, but if a file gets corrupted during the sync process, it can't tell, which is A PROBLEM because over time with repeated syncs, corrupted files can potentially end…

Add "open preview in new tab" option for files in Drive.
Currently, when I'm viewing files in a folder (using my browser), let's say pdfs, double-clicking one will open the file preview in that tab. Occasionally, I might want to open multiple files and view them side by side (or in adjacent tabs), but there's no way to open any individual file "in a new tab", which means I have to open a new blank tab, go to Proton Drive, navigate my way through my folders to the file I want, and open the preview for the next file. And I have to do that for each and every file I…

Web Clipper
I would love to see Proton Drive have a browser extension that offered a "web clipper" feature. A function that would allow the user to click on the extension in the browser to select different options like screenshoting and web clipping by clipping entire page or by manual selection and those selections then uploading to the user's Proton Drive. Would be a great way to save pages for later viewing and would add even more function to Proton Drive.

Addition of an icon for sharing documents and folders
Like on Google Docs, I would like to have an easier way to share the documents or folders, using a link or sending and invite to access. I would like to see an icon for sharing on the top right with the other icons, or have the same option through right-clicking the item.
