  2. Tags or labels for files and folders

    I would love to have the ability to better organize my files in Proton Drive by using labels or tags, independently from folders.
    For example, being able to tag a file as both “Project A” and “Budget” would make it much easier to find and group related items across different folders.

    This feature already exists in Proton Mail and works wonderfully for organizing emails by topic or context — it makes daily use much more efficient.
    Having a similar labeling system in Proton Drive would greatly enhance productivity, search, and overall organization, especially for users managing multiple projects or shared…

  3. Docs: allow on-the-fly translation from Firefox or similar

    Right now, trying to translate a published doc (view mode) using the built-in, privacy-first, Firefox feature, doesn't work. I ignore if this is a Firefox limitation, a structural limitation, or something Proton can work on, but it would be great if such feature, which I use because is run locally and respects privacy, could work.
    I am working on something that at the moment I would like to publish as-is, allowing readers to translate on-the-fly (which is something that local LLM will empower in the near future) but I'm unable to do so.

    Proton Docs HTML exporting disrupts the neat…

  4. Kindle integration

    For those with a Kindle, the only options for integrated cloud storage are Dropbox, Google Drive and One Drive. Would be great to have a more secure option with Proton Drive.

    A small market of course, but thought to try by adding it here :)

  5. Ich möchte Fotos in einem Album direkt mit einer Whatsapp-Gruppe teilen.

    Für Alben einen Link zum Teilen generieren, der auch über Messanger verteilt werden kann. Die Einzeleinladung per Mail ist nicht zufriedenstellend. Zusätzlich sollten die Rollen (Betrachter und Bearbeiter) genauer definiert werden. Kann der Betrachter herunterladen?

  6. Add a Cheaper/Smaller plan

    Add a cheaper and smaller plan for proton Drive for people that do not need as much space but want to pay for the service to help with the privacy mission. Maybe a dollar a month for 30GB or 50GB to compete with a similar option that iCloud offers.

  7. Proton Photos

    basically Google photos, but better because it's encrypted.

    As in, a mobile app for backing up and organizing phone photos.

    Maybe we could pay a monthly fee for access to Photos, Drive, and VPN service. I'd much rather support an independent company than Google

    Hi everyone,

    The Proton Drive photo backup for Android and iOS is already out.

    Please see the announcements for: 

    iOS: https://proton.me/blog/proton-drive-photo-backup-ios 

    Android: https://proton.me/blog/proton-drive-photo-backup-android 

    We'll continue working on developing more functionalities to help you protect your most precious memories. Thanks for your continuous support!

  8. Open local PDF files on mobile

    The Proton Drive mobile app can open PDF files uploaded within the app. However, it is not registered to open PDF files from within the system (e.g. a PDF file inside the File Manager). Adding this won't be difficult, especially since Proton Drive mobile app can already open these files.

  9. Show desktop folders on mobile app

    I'm using the beta Windows sync client and it works well to be able to sync my folders up to the Proton Drive webapp. However, while the sync client allows you to sync any folders on your machine, no folders outside of the ProtonDrive folder on the computer are showing up on the mobile app. On the web all of the folders that sit outside of the Proton Drive main folder show up under a "Computers" navigation. For those of us that have multiple folders across multiple drives can you enable the ability to see "computers" in the mobile app?

  10. Require 2FA and password before accessing Proton Drive in Windows Explorer

    I would like the addition of an option in the Settings menu.

    If this option is checked, data 'at rest' in the Proton Drive is encrypted and unusable in a Windows computer by default, on each startup. Only after entering the Proton password and 2FA does the Proton app unlock, decrypt all files and make read/write possible.

    To clarify, it could still sync files while in 'encrypted' mode from the cloud to on-premise, but always encrypted first. And usable upon unlock.

    Then when the user actually wants to do something, they can enter credentials and decrypt their Proton Drive. Kind…

  11. more space! we should have the option to have 1TB minimum or even up to 4TB.

    500GB is nowhere near sufficient.
    I want the privacy and security proton drive has, but it should really be 1TB at minumim, and we should have the option to add more.
    Way more.

  12. Folder info (size, stats)

    In details I'd like to see the number of files and folders inside a chosen folder and it's total size.
    It'd be also cool to be able to see details for a number of selected folders combined, so I could check the info for a few folders placed next to each other.

  13. Selective syncing of files for Mac/Linux/Windows

    Actual syncing of files is so important, that I was considering to upgrade my plan today for getting 500GB storage. But then I realized that ProtonDrive doesn't sync files, and that it works with manual upload/download only, so it wouldn't be useful for me, and so I'll wait rather than upgrade now.

    I work with Mac, Linux, and Windows computers, so I need to sync across them.

    Also note that I said "selective syncing". It would be highly desirable that if you have 200GB of files and you start working with a computer you didn't sync yet, this doesn't trigger…

  14. Password protect specific folders if sharing account.

    It would be nice to have the possibility to assign a password to a specific folder. It's a good solution if you e.g. use your Proton Drive with other family members/friends what so ever.

  15. Proton Drive API

    It would be amazing to have an API (like https://developers.google.com/drive/api/v3/about-sdk) to be able to make scripts that could automate uploading important files to ProtonDrive using a language like Python or similar.

  16. More storage options

    Please offer an option to upgrade storage capacity without having to upgrade to the Visionary level. I would like more storage but I do not need additional users or addresses or domains.

  17. ProtonDrive Bridge

    With ProtonDrive, it would be nice if similar to how ProtonMail establishes a local mail server, if for ProtonDrive the bridge provided a local file server (WebDAV, etc.).

    I'd expect the bridge to handle encryption/decryption and then could easily integrate the drive into any local file manager, etc.

  20. File versioning / prompt with options before 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…
