  3. Select a Folder With Photos/Videos Currently In Proton Drive And Have Them Transferred Over To Photos And Remove Duplicates

    I have used Proton Drive to backup a lot of Photos. Google Photos also has a lot of my photos which I am trying to get away from. It would be nice to be able to transfer photos that I have in Proton drive over to Photos by selecting the exact folder to be transferred and have the option to remove it from the drive portion, It would also be great if it could recognize duplicate photos and suggest ways to clean up space in photos. The remove duplicates feature would allow me to move entirely away from Google Photos.

  4. Retain Proton Drive folder data on local disk, as selectable default

    I would like the functionality for Proton Drive folder to retain copy of data on my local disk, and have this functionality be selectable as a default.

    My preference is to utilize 3-2-1 backup strategy,
    copy-1 located on laptop,
    copy-2 located on nearby portable disk, and
    copy-3 located offsite-remote (Proton Drive).

    Current default behavior of Proton Drive is to REMOVE copy-1 after creating copy-3.
    Current process available is to MANUALLY perform “DOWNLOAD” from copy-3, although I prefer to have this process available as selectable default.

  5. Option for synced photos to maintain original folder structure

    A setting for mirroring the original storage file/folder structure when photos are backed-up would make searching, managing and retrieving files less daunting.

  7. Website backup functionality

    Website backup possibility.
    I work as a Wordpress developer and would love to see Proton Drive as a backup possibility for my customers. Most of the major Backup Plug-ins like Duplicator Pro or Updraft Plus have direct connection to Google Drive, and Dropbox. It would be great to have Proton Drive as an option. Im sure this would bring more paying customers to your great services.

  8. Select over range through months inside of photos

    Select SHIFT doesn't seem to work when doing it over months. It works normally when doing it over individual photos, even across months.

  9. Release a visionary plan for black friday.

    For those of us who initially missed out, it would be nice to have an option for visionary. Even if it is more expensive than the original, this would be a nice way to have a symbiotic relationship with Proton and also potentially drum up sales for Proton.

  10. Dedicated file / folder share option for Windows Explorer and Kubuntu Dolphin

    Currently it looks like the only way to share a file or folder is through the web app and only when copying a file link. Can we have a dedicated file/folder share option as an integrated option in our native browsers - Explorer for Windows or Dolphin in Kubuntu?

  11. Sort files based on metadata in the file (ID3 tag, Exif, etc)

    it would be nice to be able add columns to the list view that index data from within the file.

    For photos/images, EXIF fields like date/time taken, location, camera make/model etc.
    For music, standard id3 tags.

  12. Proton Photos Separation of Devices

    I am excited for Proton to start implement a photo backup system for Proton Drive (I am looking forward for it being on iOS).
    My only request is there to be separation of backed up devices with their own photo gallery.

    For example, if you backed up two phones you would be able to view each gallery separately from each other.

    This would be crucial to me for using Proton's backup system.

  14. Desktop support for photos

    Hello,
    It's awesome we can now backup photos from phones, however it's not really convenient to search through all the photos (mobile and web), I wish we had an UI/UX similar to what Dropbox does.

    Also I'd love to be able to check my backed up photos from my computer (again, similar to Dropbox, just a preview from the folder, and only download if I open the photo), now I can only check from the web.

  15. Syncing between devices: support junctions in "My files" folder

    In this folder "C:\Users\WINUSER\Proton Drive\PROTONUSER\My files" that gets created by Proton Drive, a user should be able to include one or more Windows junctions (which point to folders elsewhere on the drive).

    This would allow a user to set up a junction pointing to the same arbitrary folder XYZ on two or more computers, which would keep the contents synced between those computers and the Proton Drive.

    (I have two computers on which I want to keep data in sync.)

  16. Markdown support

    We all need the key feature, which is Docs and Sheets support, but in the meantime would be also nice to deliver markdown support to be able to create it directly in the drive and export it to PDF for example. I guess that most of cases people need to create some kind of statements or easy documents and export them, and it could be done just with markdown integration as we can see with HackMD or Obsidian and other. From my point of view, it's a trade-off between developer complexity and user usability.

  17. shared folder notifications of file upload

    It would be great if it was possible to have a customizable notification email sent to designated addresses when a file gets uploaded to a shared folder, both between proton users and external users.

    The same for if people have a drop folder, that the owner user would receive a notification of that activity.

    This is especially useful for business activity where for a time you may have to share files securely and in real time. For example: if you are in legal proceedings and need to supply documents to your lawyer on a regular basis, you can do so…

  18. 1 click to get back to root level of Proton Drive on iOS

    When navigating in Proton Drive in iOS, sometimes I just want to go right back to the top(root) level of the drive and have to keep clicking on the back arrow to navigate up to the root.

    Would be really nice if I could just click on the 'folder' icon on the bottom toolbar to bring me right back to the top level and use the back arrow for going up one level at a time.

    An alternative UI would be to click and hold on the back arrow to go to the top level but this might be less…

  20. Missing file replacement dialog in proton drive app

    Proton Drive Android App is missing the file replacement dialog. Whenever we try to upload a same file in a folder, the app just renames it to <filename>_(1).<extension>, which is super annoying. I need to delete the old file and then upload new. This is not an issue in web client (even on android browser).
