  1. Do not occupy storage when files are deleted in the Trash.

    Give us an option to auto-delete trash after 30 days, and at the same time, do not occupy storage when we delete files. That is, do not occupy storage when files are in the trash temporarily for 30 days. One drive, Google Drive, and many other cloud storage systems work this way. If you implement this, then Proton Drive will be the best of the best. Please send this feedback to your team and developers.
    Thank you

  3. Detailed Disk Space Insight

    I've been exploring the storage options, and while the current interface allows me to see the total storage usage, it doesn't provide insights into what is consuming the disk space.

    I'd like to suggest an enhancement to the storage management feature. It would be immensely helpful if users could view a breakdown of their storage usage, specifically identifying the space consumption of emails and ProtonDrive. Having a detailed overview would empower users to manage their disk space.

  6. Android App

    Ich habe meinen Computer mit Proton Drive synchronisiert.
    Auf der Android App habe ich zugriff auf die Sektion Computer.
    Öffne ich KeePassDX oder Keepass2Android, kann ich nur auf meine Proton Drive Dateien zugreifen. Hier fehlt die Sektion Computer.
    Bei Google Drive ist das auch so, aber dort kann man Dateien "markieren" und erhält so Zugriff.

  7. Proton Drive as an option to backup whatsapp chats

    Whatsapp currently only offers Google drive as an option to backup chats on a regular cadence. Would be nice to have Proton drive as an option available to do this backup for the chats.

  8. View breakdown of storage

    It would be great if we could see how big folders are in Drive, as well as a nice view of what's taking up all our space. Much like the program WinDirStat.

  10. Tile view with shared links

    I think it would be great to give users who receive a shared link from our proton drive to be able to toggle between list view and tile view. Particularly when photos or images are involved. I often share photos through proton drive but when I test the shared link, it only allows a list view. A tile view would be much more convenient for the end user in this type of case.

    Thank you for your consideration.

  11. Add the ability to reorder rows in a table

    I often need to change the order of items in a table, being able to drag and drop the rows to re-order would be very helpful. Currently, I have to:
    - select the whole row
    - copy or cut
    - add a new row above or below another row
    - paste
    - delete the previous row (it doesn't delete the row if you cut, it leave an empty row)

    Thank you!

  12. Reinstalling a computer from scratch create a new computer entry

    When you reinstall a computer (an maybe just reinstall proton drive) you ends up with multiple entries and you have to reupload all the data.
    I would be nice to be able to "merge" computers, or to select an existing computer when installing proton drive.

  13. Allow friends (non Proton users) to upload files to MY drive

    Someone wants to share a large file with me in a secure way, but they do not have a Proton Drive account. I want to be able to share a WRITEABLE folder with them so they can deposit files.

  14. On this day over the years

    OneDrive pictures has a very cool feature called "On this day". It will list all the pictures from the current day over the years. It's a feature I love because I always go over pictures taken two, three, five, ten years ago on the current day with my wife and my sons. I think it would add a lot of value if you implement this feature.

  15. Proton Docs: Prevent Editing

    Just like Standard Notes provides a "prevent editing" feature, it would be great if Proton Docs also support this feature. This prevents accidental edit for frozen documents not intended to be edited.

  16. Rewind feature

    With a Rewind feature you can have the possibility to use the point-in-time recovery to survive with no losses in case of ransomware attack, that lock the file with .sage extension (so that the history of single file shouldn't work). Here the tip: https://blog.pcloud.com/introducing-pcloud-rewind-perfect-way-recover-great-content/

  17. button to resync file

    Button to resync a file

    Sometimes I'll be working on something and need it moved to the other computer. I have the folder synced, but it can take a while for proton drive to get around to uploading and then downloading the file. I want a button I can press (maybe when I right click on the file) that will sync it to the drive on the uploading computer immediately, and another button to immediately run a resync on the downloading computer to check for, and then download the new file.

  18. Machine assigment selection on first run of proton Drive

    Proton Drive should be able to recognise or atleast ask you when you install it if you want to asign the backup to an actually backed up host for restoration purposes.

    F.E: Someone needs to fully format his PC and when it does it and installs protondrive, the application asks if we want assign and restore from an existing machine backup.

    This also will prevent to bloat protondrive storage use and make it a lot more useful.

    Also we should be able to delete old machines registered.

    This feature is already on Microsoft Onedrive

  19. Include additional directories in the photos backup

    Users should have an option to include additional directories besides /storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Camera
    A few examples being:
    Screenshots directory - /storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Screenshots
    Screen recordings directory - /storage/emulated/0/DCIM/Screen Recordings
    Legacy camera directory - /storage/emulated/0/DCIM/100ANDRO

    My examples are from an Android perspective, but I'm sure iPhone users would benefit from this option as well.
