Add light theme for Proton Drive desktop app
The Proton Drive desktop app currently only supports a dark theme. Other Proton apps (Mail, Calendar, Drive web) already allow theme selection, so it would be great to have the same here.
I realize dark themes are more trendy, but for me they have a negative effect - I feel more tired and even sleepy when using them. In bright rooms the reflections also make it harder on the eyes. A light theme helps me stay more productive and matches the rest of my system.

Be able to read EML files within proton drive
Not sure if this is be asked for but when I save EML files to my drive either my files or shared folder on my pc I can read them when I try to open like a pdf. This would be very time saving. Currently on android you have to download onto your phone then either upload online to a converter like apose which I'm against due to privacy issue or one of very few apps (only 2 I can find) are available so you have to install this to the read which again not keen due to privacy. Yes…

Email-2-drive for automatic attachment file storing
It would be very (!) handy to use a email address as a file collector for Drive. So "all white listed senders are allowed to send messages with attachments to a unique email address (linked to Drive) and Drive automatically saves the attachment to a specific folder.
Even better: Lumo intellegence applied to give the file a content based file name such as "yyyymmdd Tax application 2026 Company".
That email address can be also used by a scanner for an fast document process from hard copy letter to pdf file in Drive. Also SaaS as Atlassian Jira use these email-2-issue…

pure Video Links without Download option
I'd like to share my videos without making them downloadable. The download button should be optional.
When the shared link is clicked, the video should start playing directly in full screen.
Inexperienced users, and especially older users, won't realize they need to tap the (gray) button.
It should be as simple as possible.

Proton Photos ios local download
At the moment, on iPhone or iPad with Proton Drive Photos, you can only select individual pictures and make them available to other photo apps locally on the device by using the share function and “Save Image.” However, if you currently select more than one picture, this function is no longer available. It would be very helpful to have the option in the future to save multiple pictures or entire albums locally.

Allow realtime updating of an open file via Proton Drive.
I would REALLY love to replace Microsoft OneDrive with Proton Drive. The one thing that's preventing me from doing that, though, is as a writer, OneDrive's ability to save/backup a Word document while I have it open and am working on it is crucial. If you could figure out a way for Proton Drive to do this, I'd be all over it.

# 0102 Dynamic “Topic Map” collections. Virtual “Topic Map” collections that aggregate tagged items
Hi Proton team,
I’d like to propose a single feature that would improve Proton Drive:
Idea: Introduce dynamic virtual collections (called “Topic Maps”) that automatically gather all files/folders sharing a given tag, regardless of their physical location.
Why it matters:
- Users can view all assets related to a project or theme in one place without reorganising folders.
- Teams can quickly audit completeness of a deliverable set (e.g., “all assets tagged ‘Game‑Launch‑Q3’”).
- Mirrors the “smart playlist” concept many users already know from music apps.
Suggested implementation (high‑level):
- When a tag is created, generate a virtual folder view that pulls in every item with that…

resuming aborted downloads/uploads
Due to instable wifi, it happens that my connection breaks when doing some bigger transfers. That's why I also voted for the speed limit cap elsewhere in this community. When my connection breaks, transfers are aborted and started all over again, instead of resuming after the connection is established again. Because of this, I cannot tranfer files of some gigabytes. I hope you can make Proton Drive more mature by implementing a kind of download manager, pausing and resuming transfers, instead of restarting complete files. Thanks you.

Show Shared Folders in Mac OS Finder
Please add the shared folders to the Mac OS Finder/Proton Drive integration. When collaborating on documents, it's too tedious to have to user the native Proton Drive app and download files to work on them. We should be able to click on a shared folder/file in Proton Drive on Mac Finder like any other file and have it open in the default app.

photos.proton.me
As a moving user from Google to Proton and as a android user, I frequently use the photos.google.com to quickly access the google photos web site and get on my computer pictures I took on my smartphone.
Could you please create a entry in your dns photos.proton.me that redirects to https://drive.proton.me/photos .
This little redirect will offer a direct link to user's photos and will bypass 2 heavy clicks...thanks

The ability to preview content inside archives. (zip, rar, etc.)
As the title says. I find this feature to be of great use to those of us who clutter lots of files inside archives. I find it a bit annoying that proton drive doesn't support said feature when competitors like Mega and Dropbox do.

Sheets: Duplicate value feature rather than needing Custom Formulas to highlight via Conditional Formatting
Instead of using Conditional Formatting and setting up a custom formula to highlight duplicate formulas, I'd love to see a button like Excel has for highlighting duplicate values in a Sheet.

allow syncing local folders directly to My Files
Currently we can sync folders which get tied to specific computers. What I would like to see is the ability to set a local folder to sync directly to "My Files" instead of being bound to a specific computer.

Comprehensive file changes list in Drive
I'm looking to switch from Dropbox to Proton Drive, and was looking into the file versioning featureset. I'm looking for an option to display a master comprehensive list of all file uploads to drive so that I can audit file additions/deletions/changes on the scale of my entire drive. Dropbox specifically has <dropbox.com/events> that displays this comprehensive list of drive changes.

Theme Based Search (Proton drive photos)
I propose adding a theme-based search in Proton Drive, similar to Google Photos, while fully respecting privacy. The idea would be to use a local AI on the device to analyze images and generate encrypted tags or indexes, used only for searching. This way, the images would never leave the device or Proton servers.
I’m not sure if this is technically feasible at scale, but with optimized LLMs and AI recognition models, it might be possible to find a balance between privacy and intelligent search, giving users a richer experience without compromising their personal data.
