  1. Proton Doc bulk download from web app

    We can't download several proton docs at the same time from the web app. It would be nice to be able to download all the proton doc files in a folder at once and integrate them into the download requests for a parent folder. Adding an option to choose the export format would also be useful.

  2. subfolder

    When selecting folders for backup, provide for selecting only certain subfolders. Then any subfolders that are system folders which are not capable of being backed up, can be taken out. This is problem there are dozens of subfolders to be backed up, but one or two other folders are system folders and can not be backed up.

  3. Proton Drive VAULT / ARCHIVE area that is cloud only and excluded from all app sync operations.

    It would be desirable that a part of your Proton Drive that should only be in the cloud and not visible to the app.

    Currently the Windows app syncs everything:
    * Everything in the directories that you select is uploaded
    * Everything in the "My Files" can be accessed from desktop by cloud stubs that the app creates.

    It would desirable to be able to select what you want from Proton Drive storage to be visible to your Win desktop. This could be done several ways:
    * The app have a button with the options of syncing/not syncing your Proton…

  6. Do not occupy storage when files are deleted in the Trash.

    Give us an option to auto-delete trash after 30 days, and at the same time, do not occupy storage when we delete files. That is, do not occupy storage when files are in the trash temporarily for 30 days. One drive, Google Drive, and many other cloud storage systems work this way. If you implement this, then Proton Drive will be the best of the best. Please send this feedback to your team and developers.
    Thank you

  9. Android App

    Ich habe meinen Computer mit Proton Drive synchronisiert.
    Auf der Android App habe ich zugriff auf die Sektion Computer.
    Öffne ich KeePassDX oder Keepass2Android, kann ich nur auf meine Proton Drive Dateien zugreifen. Hier fehlt die Sektion Computer.
    Bei Google Drive ist das auch so, aber dort kann man Dateien "markieren" und erhält so Zugriff.

  10. View breakdown of storage

    It would be great if we could see how big folders are in Drive, as well as a nice view of what's taking up all our space. Much like the program WinDirStat.

  11. View files as text (regardless of file extension)

    Sometimes I have files that do not end in .txt, but I know they are basically text files. Currently I can't see their contents at all on my mobile device. For example, Emacs org-mode notes (end in ".org"). It would be nice if there was an option in the "..." menu like "View as text".

  12. Create folder shortcuts (so you don't have to make a duplicate)

    In Google Drive, you can "Add Shortcut" of an existing folder so you don't have to duplicate folder content (you can enter the same folder from multiple locations). Similarly, macOS allows you to "Make Alias" of a folder, & in Linux you can create symlinks of folders. Would be great to be able to do this in Proton Drive!

  13. saving and sharing multiple files

    currently, when selecting multiple photos, there is only a download option, which downloads the photo to proton drive but does not save them directly to the device gallery.

    it would be immensely helpful to have a " Save to gallery " option when selecting multiple photos. this feature would streamline the process and enhance the user experience by allowing us to save multiple photos directly to our device gallery with ease.

  15. button to resync file

    Button to resync a file

    Sometimes I'll be working on something and need it moved to the other computer. I have the folder synced, but it can take a while for proton drive to get around to uploading and then downloading the file. I want a button I can press (maybe when I right click on the file) that will sync it to the drive on the uploading computer immediately, and another button to immediately run a resync on the downloading computer to check for, and then download the new file.

  16. Machine assigment selection on first run of proton Drive

    Proton Drive should be able to recognise or atleast ask you when you install it if you want to asign the backup to an actually backed up host for restoration purposes.

    F.E: Someone needs to fully format his PC and when it does it and installs protondrive, the application asks if we want assign and restore from an existing machine backup.

    This also will prevent to bloat protondrive storage use and make it a lot more useful.

    Also we should be able to delete old machines registered.

    This feature is already on Microsoft Onedrive

  18. disable downloading of shared documents with a toggle switch

    say you need to share a document with someone, but you don't want them to download it, if there was an option in the sharing settings in proton drive, when you share a file, to disable the option to download that shared document, that would be great.
