  1. ProtonDrvie - file versioning/file overwrite

    Please add this feature to ProtonDrive (tested in WebBrowser). When uploading file to ProtonDrive which is already uploaded (based on path and file name) - enable user select one of three options (probably configurable and/or ask user per file/upload session on file conflict):
    1. Add file with new name (existing functionality which appends (nn) to newly uploaded file name).
    2 Overwrite existing file with newly uploaded one (without possibility to restore overwritten files, or move previous version to Trash).
    3. Add new version to existing file (previous versions can be downloaded via new UI). Enable maximum number/size of file versions…

  2. Creat sharepoint that can be shared to free accounts

    I would be very interesting for a "plus" type user of protonmail to creat a folder with a pre-defined maximum size on the drive that can be shared (download + upload) with free account users.

    Sharepoint is a key feature when it comes to organize or work with people. It would be a good incentive for people to create a free account. I struggle to move people to protonmail, they feel concerned about privacy but not enough to take action. If stuff they need is only accessible through a proton account they will make the first step as it is…

  5. Hidden Folder called by name option

    The idea is an extra layer of security. If someone somehow comes to your browser, most sensitive data has an extra layer of security.
    Hidden folders can be only unhidden when writing the name.

  7. Folder update/merge options

    I use ProtonDrive as a backup for important files on my PC. When updating my backups I chose directory upload, expecting it to either overwrite or ignore existing files, but instead it created a new "directory (1)" and started uploading all of the files again there.

    It would be great to do one of more of the following when uploading a directory name that already exists:

    Prompt me to rename the directory
    Let me choose whether to replace, duplicate, or ignore conflicting file names
    Automatically merge the directories and do one of the above on a file-by-file basis

  8. Offline secure container

    If PD functioned like dropbox [DB] with local offline file storage that synced when changes were made that would be ideal. To secure the local data implement a secure storage container [VeraCrypt type] the OS could mount the container, then after decryption/opening use that as the local secure copy. Canceling this [mounting of the container] would effectively pause all sync operations.

    Possibly add config. options for re-enter password for local container every X minutes/hours with or without data changes in container, at logon [close the container at log off], after resume from standby/sleep/screen saver activation.

    Have a button/hotkey that would…

  9. Edit and view .txt files in drive

    Would proton drive be better with a built in plain text editor? I think the answer is a resounding yes!

    Plain text documents are the backbone of modern computing. This feature would allow for the quick creation and storage of information like code snippets, sensitive information, journal writing, and much more.

    core features:

    • create new .txt

    • edit new .txt

    • preview/view .txt

    • rename .txt

    • password protect .txt

    eventually:

    • add in line numbers

    • attach file to email

    • group/shared edit .txt file

  10. Expand files types that can be previewed

    Specifically, I would like to preview Open Office files for text .odt and spreadsheets .ods. It is very helpful to view .pdf.

    Thank you for all you do to preserve privacy.

  11. Online Files Editors

    You can base the Proton Drive on CryptPad.

    CryptPad is built to enable collaboration while keeping data private. All content is encrypted and decrypted by your browser. This means documents, chats, and files are unreadable outside of the session where you are logged in. Even the service administrators do not have access to your information.

  14. Proton Drive: Checksums!

    It would be wonderful to be able to compare checksums between a file stored on Protonmail servers and a file stored locally, before deleting the local copy. I don't really want to re-download a file to check integrity on either end.

  16. I just want to say....good things have happened to Proton Drive recently

    Hello, the last time I was in proton drive, I don't think I saw as many features and it felt really, really clunky. Now it seems that I was uploading with incredible ease, I was able to move files to a new folder very quickly and the interface seems more intuitive. It was a pleasure today to use Proton Drive and it made my day better to see one thing going right in the world. Thanks! Keep up the great work ProtonDrive team.

  19. Make documents and spreadsheets available in real time

    Collaborating in real-time and being able to share and access the most up to date version of the document regardless of who edited has become standard operating procedure for many. One of the many things we take for granted until we don't have it. Is this or something for team sharing and documenting editing in the works?

  20. Ability to attach files from proton drive to email

    Currently it seems one can attach files only from the computer.
    Would be convenient if the attach button could give access to proton drive folders/files.
