  1. Proton Drive Integration with Android Default Storage

    I haven't yet found a way to set Proton Drive as a default storage location on Android within the "My Files" functionality which drives selectable save options for most file save actions. Obviously, Google Drive is available along with MS OneDrive, internal storage, SD storage and network storage. Having Proton Drive set here would make file management much easier on Android mobile.

  2. Reconnect desktop app to existing folder

    Hi,
    I wanted to pull an offline backup for my and my wives Drive.
    I synced my folder to an external drive, switched users in the app to my wife, synced to external drive and then...
    I couldn't switch back to the big online folder of my account, because you can only switch to an empty folder. So I had to download everything in my account again.
    And the next time I want to pull a backup on my wives account I'm back to the problem.
    I created a second Windows account for her now and never switch users in…

  3. Manual sync

    It would be great e.g. for photo/video backup on phones, if we could manually trigger syncing of data from the phone to Drive. It's not everything I need synced; could be I take a funny photo to send to a loved one, but it's not something I want to waste drive storage on.

  4. chromebook

    Please add Chromebook's to the list of available devices that can sync files. I don't want to have to sit and upload every folder/file from the web interface or app as it is very time consuming. Having PD sync with Chromebooks would be very beneficial, especially to those of us who are trying to DeGoogle and only have access to a Chromebook.

  5. Photos section - let us choose what types of files will be backed up

    When some photos in my iPhone gallery has been for example color corrected or copped the backup tends to include unmodified original as well as modified version and it is quite annoying when I’m interested to have only modified version, if you would give us some settings menu with checkboxes where we can choose if unmodified originals should be backed up it would be nice, and there is room for more settings like live photos or maybe someone would want to exclude screenshots or videos,..and cool setting might be to backup only photos older than XY days because I tend…

  6. I want to back up only recent photos on my iPhone.

    When I turn on iPhone photo backup, all the photos in my iPhone's photo library are backed up.
    Let me select the album so that I can back up only Recent Photos.
    Android already allows you to specify which albums (folders) to back up.

    My iPhone's photo library contains photos synced from my local macOS environment, but I don't need to back these up.

  9. 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.

  14. 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.

  15. 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…

  16. Name, Modified, & Size Filters Specific to Each Page, w/ Memory

    I often like to sort the contents of some folders by "name", and some by "modified" date.
    1. It would be great to have a global, and folder level memory, such that you can have some folders remain sorted by "modified" date, even if you apply "name globally".
    2. Secondly, for some reason, "modified" only seems to pertain to the end item its self, instead of the contents. For instance, if I have a 5 folders and within one of them I edit a Doc., the folder order will not change even though the contents of one of them has…

  17. Sanitize Shared Photos

    It would be nice to be able to optionally sanitize photos I share with someone. I do want my own photos to include the full metadata available, and sometimes I do want to share that with someone. But sometimes I want to share a photo with someone and I want to know they are not holding onto all the metadata my phone included with it. So it would be nice if sharing photos with someone also had an option to share a version of that photo that has the metadata sanitized.

    This seems to be a very important issue, as…

  20. The Proton Drive video and music player needs to be replaced.

    Videos and music should play directly without caching, like in Google Drive.
