  1. Display photos at 100% zoom

    When viewing a photo on the Proton Drive website, there is currently no way to show the photo in its native size. By default the photo is resized to "fit the window", and you only have the option to zoom in (which applies a factor of 1.1) or zoom out (factor of 0.9). You can't set the zoom level at exactly 100%.

    This is very annoying, especially for things like screenshots or images of text, which will always be kind of blurry when not shown in their native size.

    Maybe the button that displays the current zoom level, which currently…

  2. desktop shortcuts

    Add the feature to place a shortcut for specific files from the app to mobile and computer desktop.
    Gives easy access to files like a Keepass DB. No need for every app to add support for cloud storage.
    This works with GDrive on Android very smoothly.

  3. Integration with Obsidian

    It would be great to use Proton Drive as source for Obsidian Vaults in all supported operating systems. You may access Obsidian vaults in macOS, but with iOS/ipadOS it is not poosible to access vaults on Proton Drive.

  4. Add support for "EaseUS ToDo Backup" tool CLOUD Backup feature

    I use EaseUS ToDo Backup tool to perform a number of backups daily to my local NAS drive. With a recent drive failure, I decided to bump up my Proton plan and now have 3TB (combined) storage. I attempted to create new scheduled Backups to Proton's cloud DRIVE - assuming EaseUS supported it, but they don't YET.
    I send the enhancement request to EaseUS and figured submitting it to Proton would increase the chances of this being accomplished.

  5. Add a Taskbar Flyout Window in Proton Drive when clicking the App Icon on the taskbar

    OneDrive has a flyout on the taskbar that shows it's sync status and settings without opening the full app. It would be great if Proton Drive offered something similar.

  6. Allow Photos in Proton Drive to have their date overwritten

    Reason for this is Proton Drive sometimes gets the dates wrong from correctly dated photos. If like in google photos, we can overwrite the date if can fix the sorting of your images

  7. Download Folders or Files locally via the Proton Drive IOS App

    The ability to download folders on the Proton Drive IOS app to local storage not just available offline in the Proton Drive IOS app.. Currently I have to share the folder I want and then visit the web link and then download the folder. This really gets rid of the need for the IOS app

  10. Docs: allow on-the-fly translation from Firefox or similar

    Right now, trying to translate a published doc (view mode) using the built-in, privacy-first, Firefox feature, doesn't work. I ignore if this is a Firefox limitation, a structural limitation, or something Proton can work on, but it would be great if such feature, which I use because is run locally and respects privacy, could work.
    I am working on something that at the moment I would like to publish as-is, allowing readers to translate on-the-fly (which is something that local LLM will empower in the near future) but I'm unable to do so.

    Proton Docs HTML exporting disrupts the neat…

  11. Kindle integration

    For those with a Kindle, the only options for integrated cloud storage are Dropbox, Google Drive and One Drive. Would be great to have a more secure option with Proton Drive.

    A small market of course, but thought to try by adding it here :)

  12. Proton Photos

    basically Google photos, but better because it's encrypted.

    As in, a mobile app for backing up and organizing phone photos.

    Maybe we could pay a monthly fee for access to Photos, Drive, and VPN service. I'd much rather support an independent company than Google

  13. Open local PDF files on mobile

    The Proton Drive mobile app can open PDF files uploaded within the app. However, it is not registered to open PDF files from within the system (e.g. a PDF file inside the File Manager). Adding this won't be difficult, especially since Proton Drive mobile app can already open these files.

  14. Require 2FA and password before accessing Proton Drive in Windows Explorer

    I would like the addition of an option in the Settings menu.

    If this option is checked, data 'at rest' in the Proton Drive is encrypted and unusable in a Windows computer by default, on each startup. Only after entering the Proton password and 2FA does the Proton app unlock, decrypt all files and make read/write possible.

    To clarify, it could still sync files while in 'encrypted' mode from the cloud to on-premise, but always encrypted first. And usable upon unlock.

    Then when the user actually wants to do something, they can enter credentials and decrypt their Proton Drive. Kind…

  15. Selective syncing of files for Mac/Linux/Windows

    Actual syncing of files is so important, that I was considering to upgrade my plan today for getting 500GB storage. But then I realized that ProtonDrive doesn't sync files, and that it works with manual upload/download only, so it wouldn't be useful for me, and so I'll wait rather than upgrade now.

    I work with Mac, Linux, and Windows computers, so I need to sync across them.

    Also note that I said "selective syncing". It would be highly desirable that if you have 200GB of files and you start working with a computer you didn't sync yet, this doesn't trigger…

  16. Password protect specific folders if sharing account.

    It would be nice to have the possibility to assign a password to a specific folder. It's a good solution if you e.g. use your Proton Drive with other family members/friends what so ever.

  17. Proton Drive API

    It would be amazing to have an API (like https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/about-sdk) to be able to make scripts that could automate uploading important files to ProtonDrive using a language like Python or similar.

  18. ProtonDrive Bridge

    With ProtonDrive, it would be nice if similar to how ProtonMail establishes a local mail server, if for ProtonDrive the bridge provided a local file server (WebDAV, etc.).

    I'd expect the bridge to handle encryption/decryption and then could easily integrate the drive into any local file manager, etc.

  20. Backup

    I just think, today we have more devices, mobile, tables, computer, notebook. And when enabled backup options on all of this devices all connected has been storage inside one Photos. When you won’t to check, or review you need long time. My suggestion is to have option to credited folder like Mobile inside Files, and inside application settings to have options to set directories where to storage files for that device.
