non‑E2EE Linux client for Proton Drive
Your blog says a Linux client is in progress, but Proton Drive cannot be taken seriously as a core product until it exists. Linux is a first‑class environment for many of your most technical users, and the absence of a native client is a fundamental gap.
If E2EE is the bottleneck, ship a non‑E2EE Linux client now with explicit warnings. Engineers know how to encrypt locally — Cryptomator, rclone, and similar tools already solve this. pCloud has used this model for years. Delivering a functional client early gives you performance data, crash reports, and real‑world usage patterns instead of waiting…

Photo caption or description
Add ability to add a description or a caption as a separate piece of metadata for a photo. Possibly it could be part of Album metadata. The lack of this feature prevents me from migrating multiple albums from Google Photos.
There are some suggestions to display captions or descriptions from EXIF stored with photos. Doing it that way would change the modified by date etc if a user wanted to change those; also updates would require de-encryption/re-encryption, adding challenges to de-duping and burdening the user flow. On the other hand if my suggestion is implemented, then those who wanted EXIF…

Sheets - Drop Down UI Improvements and Color-Coding Options
The ease of creating and editing drop down menus in Google Sheets is so far unmatched by Proton and is keeping me in the Google ecosystem.
Making changes to Google Sheets dropdowns is very easy and intuitive - when selecting a cell, each dropdown option is displayed on its own line, with the option of dragging and dropping to change order and edit the options as their own fields, rather than fields being comma-delimited - and there is the ability to color-code each field so that the contents are easy to differentiate, rather than the current Proton setup simply being…

Aliases, Symbolic Links and Tags in Proton Drive for macOS
please add support for Aliases, Symbolic Links and Tags in Proton Drive for macOS;
as of now, aliases to folders when copied to proton are converted to empty and useless "blank" files,
instead aliases to files (.doc, .pdf, ...) are initially actually aliases but they don't have the alias icon (with the lower left arrow) ...the problem is that they work only until the original is modified and saved (in the same location), then they become useless too!another thing: files in proton drive loose the finder tags (which are a crucial part of the workflow of many mac users,…

Move image to trash while already viewing it (desktop)
Currently the only way to delete an image is by going out to the gallery view and attempting to find the photo you want to delete. This is inefficient and inaccurate.

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.

Page numbering and layout
Please add the page numbering to the docs app, as well as the layout possibilities (chapters, titles..). I personally use it for administrative documents, but also to write a novel!

Allow unselect during Ctrl multiselect in Proton Sheets
In other spreadsheet editors, such as Google Sheets, if you hold Ctrl and click on multiple cells to select them, you can click a selected cell again to unselect it. This is very helpful if you're multi selecting and accidentally select a cell, since it'll let you unselect it and still keep all your other cells selected.
I tried this in Proton Sheets, and clicking on an already selected cell (in multiselect) does nothing.
It's a very small feature, but a good quality of life by design. :)
Thank you!

photo album sharing
Share photo albums via link with non-Proton users.
This feature exists for Proton drive files, which is why I still need to use proton folders to share photos with friends who are not on Proton Drive.
The whole idea of photo albums is to share them. That this feature is omitted is a deal-breaker for my adoption of photo albums.

Sync Symlinks in Proton Drive on Unix/MacOS
Currently it seems that if a symlink is created in the Local Proton Drive Folder, it is ignored. It would be useful if the symlinks were followed and synced. This would allow to sync files anywhere on the filesystem to Proton Drive by symlinking from the file to the local Proton Drive Folder.
Use cases include syncing files that need to be in a certain locations, like local configurations (bashrc and similar) without having to copy them each time they change.

Proton Sheets Chart Improvements
The graphical depiction of data is often the key to understanding that data quickly. (1) Better anchor charts (after inserting a chart, its position on the sheet jumps to a new location when clicked or after clicking a static image elsewhere on the sheet, such as the image of a chart that appears after converting an Excel file to Proton Sheets); (2) Allow customization of the color, thickness and line type used in line charts; (3) Allow relocation of chart legends from above the chart to below the chart; (4) Allow customization of "combo" charts so users can specify whether…

Granular Document Editing with Read-Only Sections, Form Fields, and Signature Lock
Adding granular permission controls to Proton Docs that would allow document creators to mix locked (read-only) content with editable form fields within the same document.
Core functionality:
- Read-only sections: Parts of the document that cannot be altered by recipients (e.g., terms, conditions, legal text, contract clauses).
- Editable form fields: Designated areas where recipients can fill in their information (names, dates, IDs, checkboxes, etc.).
- Signature field: An electronic signature option—or even a simple "click to accept" checkbox—that automatically locks the entire document once signed.
Use cases:
- GDPR data collection and consent forms
- Informed consent documents in healthcare settings
- Budget approvals and…

Pause active upload
Hi!
Since you are rebuilding so much around Drive, please consider adding a basic and simple feature: PAUSE.
Like the current "Cancel all" button, a new "Pause all" button and an individual "Pause" button, for each file actively being uploaded.IMO that's a basic functionality a product like this needs to have.
Why? A simple and basic use case: I upload a large file, half way I want to do something that requires my whole bandwith or best latency (which uploading a full speed affects -because I can't limit it-). Now I can either cancel -wasting what I've already uploaded-…5 votes -
Hide Offline
Hide Offline
ProtonDrive supports 'Online Only' and 'Make Available Offline', etc. Great feature for saving space locally while still seeing/navigating folders/files.
The counter to this that I would like to see is ability to make certain folders invisible to the PC app (i.e. only visible from a browser session).

Landscape mode for iOS
In iOS, there's no landscape mode. Thus in portrait mode, if you use files with long filenames you can't see the full name and it's hard to select the correct file. That makes me Drive unusable in iOS.

[Proton Business] Intergrate Proton Groups with Proton Drive
Proton Groups (https://proton.me/support/groups) should be integrated with Proton Drive, and allow for the creation of shared sub-drive or folders.
That is, if I have a group "Team" with several members, that Team should be able to have access to a common drive (with an allocated space from the organisation, not taped into individuals space). This would simplify access to said sub-drive while Team x is evolving.
This is a functionality that currently exists in Google Workspace, and should be available for Proton Business too.

Protect photo's from deletion in album
I'd like to delete photo's to save space, but I want to keep certain photo's. The problem is that I want to keep certain photo's as well, and currently I have to go through each single photo to decide whether I want to delete it or not.
One way to make this easier is to protect albums. In that way I can easily delete all photo's in 'all' without worrying that those from my albums will also disappear.
