  1. Better way for bulk uploading/downloading

    It is currently very challenging to upload large amounts of data into Proton Drive. I have some data that I want to back up into the cloud, which currently sits on an external drive. The Proton Drive desktop app will not accept the folders on the external drive for backup (presumably because it is not an internal drive), and uploading via the web interface is extremely unreliable unless you manually do it in small chunks, which is tedious.

    Would it be possible to add a function to the desktop app to copy large amounts of data into Proton Drive or…

  2. Some way to know my work on a doc is saved

    I need to know that my changes have been saved before I close out of a document. Like neat little blue or green checkmark in a corner next to the word "Saved". Thanks.

  3. Local cache

    Other cloud providers have a local cache that you can set the size of, that just retains your most recently opened files so you're not having to re-download them every time you open them. I realise you can set specific files or folders to be available locally, but it's a pain having to do this when you have lots of different files (drawing files is what I'm thinking of) with large (GB) attachments. With a cache they're just available while actively working with them, and then they eventually get pushed back off the local drive when you're no longer opening…

  4. Automatic Substitute Feature

    A feature where we can manually add substitutions. For example, I like to use em dashes in my writing (—) but it's difficult to do on my regular keyboard, so I used the substitute feature in the other docs I use to automatically substitute "--" to "—" and use it with other things, too, like adding accented letters automatically onto names (turning eon to éon for example). I know there are keyboards out there that can do it, but I've never been able to find one that works conveniently enough for my writing, and this is a relatively minor but…

  5. Auto trim Trash item older the XX days

    Compared to other Web Drive providers, Proton Drive lacks a feature where items whose 'Deleted Time' exceeds a certain threshold (i.e. 30 days) get automatically deleted by the system.
    There are a number of reasons as to why this might be so. One possible reason could be that, due to data encryption on Proton's side, they cannot view certain metadata of the file, such as its 'Deleted Time'. This would then exclude any attempts by the server to perform housekeeping duties.

    The solution is to move the deletion routine into the user clients instead. All the server has to do…

  8. Get memories of previous photos at same date or videos

    It would be nice to have a similar feature than pCloud that shows photos at the same date (day/month) in the previous years or memory videos as iCloud.

  9. Preserve albums from device

    I backup my photos from my phone onto Proton Drive. However, the albums that the photos are in on my phone are not preserved on Proton Drive. Instead, they are just dumped into one place. This, unfortunately, makes the photos pretty much unusable, because they are a nightmare to look through all mixed up.

    I already have placed my photos into sensible albums on my phone. I should not have to redo that on Proton Drive. Without this feature, I have to use another service for photo backups.

  11. Allow creating folder-pairs to sync

    Allow us to define folder-pairs such that user can select one folder in the local device to pair with a folder on the cloud storage and sync the two, either unidirectionally, or bidirectionally.

    This will allow users great flexibility in defining what folders/files they want to sync across their various machines.

    Examples of where this has been done effectively: OneSync app on Android, DropSync app on Android.

  13. 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+v

    Expected 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.

  17. PIN/Password (instead of a long password) in Proton Drive Windows apps (like the Proton Pass app)

    The PIN feature in the Proton Drive app is great for shared devices or work use, so no one else can access my Proton Drive app.

  18. Be able to sweep between images in Proton Drive mobile App

    This is about Proton Drive mobile App (iOs in my case).
    Currently if there are several images in the folder, I have to open an image, then close it, then open another, etc.
    I would like to be able to sweep directly between the images in the folder. It would be a more fluent experience :)
    Thank you

  19. 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.

  20. Sheets: Support R1C1 notation

    I would like to use R1C1 cell reference notation, specifically in the relative (ex. RC[-1] is same row, one column to the left).
