  1. Photos in albums: option to sort manually

    It would be great to have the option to rearrange the photos in an album into a custom order.

    Possible use cases: the time stamp has been messed up, or I'd like to highlight some photos when sharing the album.

  2. Sort albuns by name

    Currently, Albuns are sorted by creation date.
    It would be very useful if we could sort them alphabetically.

  3. Lightweight notetaking/todo app

    I’m looking for a lightweight notetaking/todo app like Google Keep. I want to be able to write quick notes and organize lists (groceries, chores, tasks, etc.) in one place. It should stay in sync between my computer and my phone so I can add things anywhere. Markdown support would be great so I can bring my existing notes into it.

    Thanks for considering this!

    Would be nice to be able to set the trash to auto delete (empty) just like the email one does.

  6. Some feature for app

    I hope these features will be available on iOS and Android.

    It should be possible to share files from anywhere on the phone with the app so that they can be uploaded, such as photos or other types of files.

    There should be a video player within the app that supports video quality control, as well as an audio player.

    It should be possible to upload selected photos without having to obtain permission to access all photos.

    Alternative connection options should be provided in the app to solve the problem of apps being blocked in some countries, such as Proton…

  7. Photo deduplication feature

    The Drive does not mind importing photos multiple times, even though being advertised differently.
    Examples:
    - exact same name, created date, but different last modified date => 2 copies.
    - modified photo on iPhone => 2 copies (not 1 photo with two different states)
    - importing the same photo from multiple sources => multiple copies

    This is driving me crazy, as I want to have a single version of a single photo and don't want to waste my time merging etc. The switch to Proton was supposed to be simple.

  8. View videos on mobile

    Currently, to view videos stored on proton drive, you have to download them. An option is to allow apps like vlc, the ability to view/stream these videos, instead of having to download them.

  9. Support for GNOME/KDE online accounts

    Using the GNOME or KDE online accounts applet you should be able to use Proton services like Proton Mail, Proton Drive, Proton Pass etc. by logging in to your Proton account. Nextcloud and Google have support for both, and Microsoft is supported in GNOME enviroments. Posted this in the Drive section since currently only the Drive app and various other early access apps cannot run natively in Linux.

  10. My Files - Rename or Remove

    It looks like all files go into a top level directory called "My Files." Having a space in a path name can cause problems in some software tools and is more difficult to traverse on the command line. I would like to be able to rename the folder to something without a space, or eliminate it completely and manage the top level tree myself.

  11. Proposal to Add Version Control System (VCS) Support to Proton Drive

    Dear Proton Drive Development Team,

    I hope this message finds you in good time. First of all, I'd like to thank Proton Drive for the excellent services it offers. Your commitment to security, privacy, and ease of use, in particular, makes your platform indispensable for many users.

    However, I have a suggestion for a feature that could be added to Proton Drive for software developers: Version Control System (VCS) Support.

    Why Would VCS Support Be an Opportunity for Proton Drive?

    Version control has become a fundamental tool in the software development process. It allows teams to efficiently manage their projects,…

  12. Table of Contents :: Proton Docs

    Thanks for making Proton Docs!

    Will you please add a button to toggle a floating table of contents to the left side of a document that is being viewed or edited?

    Ideally, the TOC would show the headers of the document that would scroll to that part of the document when clicked. This would be similar to the feature in Google Docs. Additionally, a config option for it to set how many headers deep it would show would also be helpful.

    Thanks again!

  13. app specific password for programatic drive access

    I am using MFA to access Proton services.
    I am testing Proton Drive as a backup solution, using rclone to send nightly deltas of a folder to the drive. This needs MFA, though, so it breaks after a while.
    Could you add app-specific--passwords so that this can be achieved, without using MFA for this, but still keeping MFA for normal access?

    Thank you.

  14. Allow editing of photos

    It would be very useful to be able to edit photos, such as cropping, rotating, and adding filters. It doesn't necessarily need to have very advanced features, just the basics.

  15. Create/Edit excel files in Proton Drive (EcoSystem)

    It would be nice to edit/create excel files within the Proton Drive suite.

    Same functionality as https://proton.me/blog/docs-proton-drive, but then also for Excel instead of Word documents.

  16. Secure Folders (without synchronization to Windows, passwords)

    Extra folders that are not synchronized to the Windows drive via the Proton Drive app.
    For Secure Folder, have the option of password protection.

  20. Easy Switch for Proton Drive

    Please implement an equivalent of Easy Switch for Proton Drive. It would be of great benefit in the effort of migrating from OneDrive, Google Drive and Dropbox. It's honestly almost impossible to do manually as I - as of now - has to download everything to my local computer and then upload it to Proton Drive.
