1. 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.

3. Prevent repeated photos/videos in backups of Android

   Each time a folder is activated for backup in android, all the images are uploaded without checking if them are already uploaded. A hash comparison would resolve this issue and prevent photos or videos' duplication

5. Pause Photo Backup Proton Drive

   Pause Photo Backup
   Proton Drive Android
   Sometimes instant backup is inconvenient because:
   I want to delete some photos and videos in a moment (deleting them on my phone and then on the cloud is imprecise and time-consuming)
   I want to save battery power when I don't have anywhere to charge my phone right away.

7. Add speech to text functionality to Proton Docs.

   Having the ability to speak to the Proton Docs application and have it turn the speech into text would make it much easier to compose long-form written material, especially if it is sensitive by nature. I do not trust other programs to keep such things safe and private.

9. Segmented Streaming for Videos to enable previewing large video files

   I tried to preview a 5min video which is 5GB in my drive, but I couldn't. It wouldn't load at all. I assume the app is trying to download the whole thing and then let me view it instead of serving me chunks, so with segmented streaming I hope I can view any of my video files with 0 waiting time.

10. Keyboard shortcuts

    I would love to see keyboard shortcut support in the web version of Proton Drive. Out of habit, I always press F2 when I want to rename a file (same as in Windows and other Microsoft products, it has also been implemented in Google Drive).

    It would also be nice if e.g. Ctrl+A (or Cmd+A on macOS) selected all files/objects in the current view.

    Using the arrow keys (up and down) to move the selection from one object to the next. Extending selection of files by using the arrow keys (up and down) while holding Shift.

    Alt+Arrow up to traverse up one directory. This would pair well with moving with the arrow keys and using Enter to traverse into a selected directory (last shortcut works currently).

11. Proton sheets - in cell formatting

    Would be great if it would be possible to apply different formatting to words in cells. For example, a cell currently is either bold or not-bold. There's not way to accentuate a few words in the cell by making those bold while leaving the rest not-bold. I assume the same applies to other formatting options.

12. Option to "open with..."

    Being dependent on Google Docs and Sheets, I would love to use Proton Drive to backup everything but then I'd need the option to open files that Proton Drive cannot open with another app - thus "open with..." Google Drive, etc.

13. Priority Downloads

    Similar to when updating an application on IOS it would be great when I'm already downloading multiple files at once I can select one to prioritize in the download queue.

    On example use case is the user is downloading their music library or photos but needs access to a critical document quickly but it is stuck at the end of the download queue. You just have to wait until all the other files are finished downloading before you can access that document.

14. Request for Malware Scanning Feature in Proton Drive and Sync

    I've noticed that Google Drive recently introduced a feature that scans for malware and ransomware, automatically blocking the upload if any are detected. Could Proton consider adding a similar feature to Proton Drive Sync? It would be incredibly helpful to have this protection in place, scanning files as they are being uploaded. This way, if a file is infected, Proton could block the upload and pause the sync.

    I currently use Bitdefender and find it fantastic, but integrating such a feature directly into Proton Drive would enhance security for both the sync application and the cloud storage itself.

15. Please make Proton Drive available in F-Droid

    Unlike Proton Authenticator, Pass, VPN, and Lumo apps, which are available in F‑Droid, it’s sad that Proton Drive is still unavailable there. I really miss this app to have all Proton apps from F‑Droid.
    - https://search.f-droid.org/?q=proton

    I hope it can be made available soon!

16. A thought on spreadsheet architecture (from a grateful user)

    Hi Proton Team,
    First off, I want to say that what you've built with Proton Docs is genuinely impressive. End-to-end encrypted spreadsheets that actually work is no small feat, and I really appreciate the engineering that went into making this happen.
    I've been using your spreadsheet app and thinking a lot about architecture lately. What you've accomplished is amazing—truly. But I also believe that trying to build the same thing in different ways can teach you a lot, even if you never ship it. I wish I could rewrite all my own apps in every language and framework just to see what I'd learn. But if I had to choose just one thing to rewrite, one experiment that felt like it might reveal something fundamental... I'd rewrite a spreadsheet app in SolidJS.
    I know how this sounds. It feels a bit like suggesting someone reconsider their religion, and I've been hesitant to even bring it up. And look—I could be completely wrong about this. I don't know your codebase. I don't know what you've already tried or what constraints you're working under. I'm looking at this from the outside, and I'm sure there are a hundred things I'm not seeing.
    But here's the thing that keeps nagging at me, and I could be completely wrong about this—I don't know all the facts of your architecture or the constraints you're working under—but: spreadsheet cells are literally signals.
    I mean this in the most fundamental, computer science sense. A cell holds a value. When that value changes, dependent cells recalculate. That's it. That's a signal. And React... React doesn't really think in signals. It thinks in snapshots and reconciliation.
    Right now, when I edit a cell in your spreadsheet, React has to:

    Re-run component functions
    Build a new virtual DOM tree
    Diff it against the old tree
    Figure out what changed
    Update the DOM

    Or at least, that's how I understand it works. I could be missing optimizations you've implemented that I can't see from the outside. But in principle, a spreadsheet cell doesn't need a diff. It knows exactly what changed—its value. And it knows exactly who needs to know—the cells that reference it.
    This is where signal-based reactivity (like what SolidJS uses) becomes almost eerily perfect for spreadsheets. Not because SolidJS is "better" (I know how loaded that word is), but because the mental model matches the problem domain exactly:
    A1 = 5 // This is a signal
    A2 = A1 * 2 // This is a computed signal
    When A1 changes, only A2 updates. No diffing. No reconciliation. No re-rendering parent components. Just: "A1 changed, tell A2." That's it.
    I realize I'm oversimplifying massively, and maybe I'm missing something fundamental about why this wouldn't work in practice. I know you've got virtualization, you've got workers handling crypto, you've got complex state management for collaboration, and you've got a whole ecosystem built on React. There are probably architectural decisions I'm completely unaware of that make this harder—or maybe even impossible—than I'm imagining.
    But I also can't shake this feeling that you're fighting React's fundamental architecture every time a cell updates. You've done an amazing job making it work (seriously, the fact that it works as well as it does is a testament to your engineering), but it's like... you've built a beautiful house with the wrong foundation for the soil type, you know?
    Or maybe I'm completely off base. Maybe React is actually perfect for this and I'm just not seeing it.
    Here's what I'm actually suggesting (and please feel free to ignore this):
    Maybe it's worth experimenting with a signal-based approach for just the grid layer? Not a full rewrite. Not even for production. Just... to see. To learn what happens when the mental model aligns so perfectly with the problem. It could be SolidJS, or Preact Signals, or even a custom implementation. The framework doesn't matter as much as the fundamental reactivity model.
    Because I genuinely believe you'd learn something valuable, even if you never ship it. Sometimes the act of building the same thing differently reveals insights about the original that you couldn't see any other way.
    And if the theory holds—if signals really could be 5-10x faster for spreadsheet operations (which the benchmarks suggest, though I know benchmarks lie), and if they use significantly less memory—then for something like Proton Docs, which people use for work, where performance and reliability matter, those insights might be worth exploring. Even if it just confirms that React was the right choice all along.
    I know this is a big ask, even as an experiment. I know you have a roadmap. I know React works and has a huge ecosystem and hiring is easier and a million other practical reasons to stick with what you have. And I'm not saying you're wrong for using React—it was probably the right choice when you started.
    But if I could rewrite just one of my apps to learn something fundamental about architecture, it would be this. A spreadsheet in signals. Because it just... fits.
    I'm just saying... spreadsheet cells are signals. And sometimes when something just makes sense at that fundamental level, it's worth exploring. Even just as an experiment.
    Or maybe it's not worth it. Maybe you've already run these numbers and they don't add up. Maybe there's something about signals that breaks with encryption, or collaboration, or some other piece I can't see from here. I genuinely don't know.
    Again, I love what you've built. I'm rooting for you. And if you've already considered this and decided against it—or if I'm just fundamentally misunderstanding the problem—I completely understand.
    Thanks for listening to my rambling.

20. Be able to sweep between images in Proton Drive mobile App

    This is about Proton Drive mobile App (iOs in my case).
    Currently if there are several images in the folder, I have to open an image, then close it, then open another, etc.
    I would like to be able to sweep directly between the images in the folder. It would be a more fluent experience :)
    Thank you
