Storage optimization- flag duplicate photos to merge or delete
When I moved my photos over from Google and my phone, I wound up with quite a few duplicates that are taking up significantly more storage than needed. I don't have time to go through and find them all manually. If I remember correctly, Google Photos would gather duplicate photos into a specific folder for you to review and merge/delete the duplicates. This feature would be super useful in the photos portion of Proton Drive.

Add "copy link" feature to any file or folder without forcing the owner to share with others or set additional password
One great feature of Google Drive is the ability of copy a link to a file or folder, even if the owner doesnt share it to anyone.
This is particularly helpful when the owner needs to reference a specific file/folder in a (for instance) trello card, or documentation for his own use.
Force the user to add an additional password or, worse, share with others so it can get a link adds unnecessary complexity and security risks, in this use case.3 votes -

Allow Renaming Photos in the Photos Section
Please allow users to rename photos directly from the Photos section in Proton Drive. Currently, renaming is only possible from the Files section, which is inconvenient.

Web based Drive Search
Search is not available because the contents need to be indexed or something. Please review this. It's day 5 of me waiting for all my 900 gb to be uploaded and I can't perform a single search. Please contact me for advise on these basic things you are missing. I am regretting switching from Mega already. Please.

Add an “Allow Downloads” On/Off Option When Sharing Files in Proton Drive
It would be very useful if Proton Drive could add an option when sharing files that allows you to choose whether someone can only view the file or also download it.
For example, a simple on/off switch:
🔘 Allow downloads
- On → The recipient can view and download the file.
- Off → The recipient can only view the file and cannot download it.
This would make Proton Drive much more user-friendly and secure, especially when sharing files with others but you don’t want them to be able to save or redistribute the files.

Hiding photo albums
Allow for photo albums to be hidden, sorted, and their contents also hidden. I've got a lot of work photos in my proton drive, but I don't care browsing past all of them when I'm looking for pictures of my actual life. If I could hide them in albums, but still on hand, that would be great.

Add support for absolute cell references (i.e. using "$")
Steps:
- Cell K1 contains the formula, "=$A1"
- Click on K1 and copy with cmd+c
- Select cell L1, and paste with cmd+vExpected result:
- The formula in L1 should be "=$A1"Actual result:
- The formula in L1 is "=$B1"So it appears the use of "$" to denote absolute cell references (e.g. "$A1", "A$1", "$A$1") is not supported. This would be hugely valuable addition, and is currently preventing me moving from Google to Proton Sheets.

Paste full copied rows into the space between other rows, effectively adding rows as in google sheets
In proton sheets, I would like to suggest adding a feature previously seen in google sheets, for which copied full rows can be pasted in between other rows, effectively adding new rows to the document. This is acheived in google sheets by first marking the line between row-numbers, then pasting the full rows here.
This was a huge and very intuitive addition to my workflow when I was using google sheets, and so far, no alternative seems to do this.4 votes -
Use AI to auto identify and auto organize photos
Use AI to auto tag, auto name and/or auto organize photos. For example allow me to tag or identify each of my family members and then have an auto name feature to rename the photos to include their names or tags. Ex Sally Suzie John in Rome Italy trip (1 2 3 etc)

Subject: Feature Request – Insert Current Date / Dynamic Date Field in Proton Docs
Dear Proton Team,
I would like to request a feature for Proton Docs that is standard in most word processors:
REQUEST: Ability to insert the current date via keyboard shortcut or menu option, preferably as a dynamic field that updates automatically when the document is opened.
USE CASE:
I frequently use document templates (contracts, offers, letters). Currently, any date embedded in the template remains static. When reusing a template weeks or months later, I must manually update every date field. A dynamic date field would eliminate…3 votes -
Sheets Should be able to open and edit .ods and .xlsx files without having to create a whole new file.
When I go to open a .ods or .xlsx file, Proton Drive creates an entirely new file and then opens that file to edit. This then abandons the .ods or .xlsx file and all new edits only show on the newly created file that opened in Sheets. This is inconvenient when some of my editing is being done on Proton Sheets and some on Libre Office Calc or Microsoft Excel. As a small business manager, we cannot adopt Proton Sheets in part for this reason.

File request
No, Proton Drive does not currently support a native, blind "File Request" feature like the ones found in Dropbox, OneDrive, or Google Drive.
While you can generate public links that allow outside users to upload files, Proton’s current setup behaves like a shared folder rather than a secure submission drop box.
The Current Workaround (and its Limitations)
You can technically receive files from non-Proton users by doing the following:
Create a new, empty folder in your Proton Drive.
Generate a shareable link and set the permissions to "Anyone with the link can edit."
The Problem: Because this grants "edit" permissions…7 votes -
Headers, Footers, and Page Number Fields in Docs
The ability to add headers, footers, and page numbers is important for preparing documents to submit to agents, publishers, contests, etc. or as school assignments. Please include the option to make the header and footer the same across all pages, and another option to make them the same across all pages except the first. The page number field needs to be separate, since each page number will be different. Thanks.

Proton Sheets Standard Formatting Keyboard Shortcuts
Currently Standard Formatting shortcuts like Ctrl+B for Bold, Ctrl+I for Italic, Ctrl+U for Underline, etc. are not implemented in Proton Sheets. These are very basic things that the lack of significantly increases the time it takes for perform basic tasks.
