  1. Thumbnails for image files in Grid Layout

    Since it's been 4 years since the latest requests for this Critical feature, I will re-request it.

    We desperately need Thumbnails for image files in Grid Layout, like in OneDrive. Without this, I am unable to replace OneDrive with Proton Drive.

  2. 50gb tier

    Can you make a 50 Gb plan for 1 or 2 dollar’s ? Per month

    It would be enough for me.

    My max is 4€ for proton products per month
    Maybe you can offer something for that sweet spot. Like drive + pass

  3. Support local encryption at rest

    Support storing Windows (and Mac when the time comes) files downloaded from Drive encrypted on the local disk. Then, support a virtual drive that presents the files as decrypted. Two examples with good user experiences are:

    1. Boxcryptor, which optionally supports folder and file name obfuscation.
    2. Cryptomator, which always forces folder and file name obfuscation.

    I personally prefer the former, but either one will be helpful.

  4. Lifetime plan

    Lifetime plan. Add a 500 GB or 1 TB storage space plan purchase service, for a lifetime. Because this is very helpful to the community and makes it easier to use it sustainably. This is especially important for some communities like ours. And build good relationships between customers and corporations.

  5. Proton Drive larger Storage in all the paid subscriptions

    I currently have the unlimited sub and i need more TB but no more aliases, no vpn, no nothing. So i was wondering if the "modular" function would be interestinf as some people only opt in for proton mail but also the storage because of the security plus of Proton. Example i need the proton mail Plus 5 TB drive to store my photos and videos. Maybe you could add Drive and Vpn etc as modules to have more individual plans - this way you would fit more the needs of potential customers who are not necessarily willing to pay…

  6. Automate "Free up Space" on the desktop Proton Drive via a schedule

    When a user or app uses a PD cloud file it downloads it and the cloud file stub changes size from something tiny to the full size of the file.

    The size of the desktop PD directory could become very large and the size increase could be very sudden. At the moment to shrink it, you have to manually do a Free up space on individual files or directories from Windows File Explorer.

    Suggestion:
    Have a scheduler to automatically run Free up space to clean up after user downloads at least once a day or week, perhaps maybe a user…

  7. ProtonDrive following directory symbolic links should be optional not the default.

    ProtonDrive following directory symbolic links as the default and not being able to disabled can be dangerous. Most commercial backup applications require it to be user enabled.

    Its is dangerous because apps following nested symbolic links can cause loops which the app cannot escape from.

  8. Side menu directory shortcut ("Favorites")

    On the side menu below "Trash", it would be nice to have a section for shortcuts to certain directories so I don't have to go digging into the directory tree structure to get to them.

  9. As integraded storage available for apps in Android

    For example: there is a whole list of storage providers to select in MS Word, Excel and co but no Proton Drive. So now I have two options:
    1) download from PD, edit and save, upload to PD (not really my line of working because huge possibility of making mistakes and overwrite changes made on other machine)
    2) use OneDrive

    I prefer: click on file in the Android PD app, choose app to open (Excel for example), edit and save while in edit app, close edit app.

    Thanks for listening

  10. Improved MacOS application interface

    Currently you can see the status icon of proton drive as a whole in the menu bar for MacOS.

    it would be great if the app had a similar experience to Windows in that you can see the sync activity/history for files being synced to the drive.

  11. Mail-in function

    Mail-in function to ProtonDrive, an integrated email inbox feature that allows users to forward and receive emails and attachments directly into their ProtonDrive account.

    Each user gets a unique @mail-in.proton.me email address

    When emails are sent to this address, the content and attachments are automatically saved in the user's inbox folder on ProtonDrive.

    Attachments are automatically downloaded to the inbox folder or sub folder. ProtonDrive inbox generates a PDF of the email's full text.

    Use cases:

    1. Secure document reception: Users can have sensitive documents sent directly to their encrypted ProtonDrive storage.

    2. Automatic file organization: Incoming files are securely stored in…

  13. Copy file URL in Android app

    When accessing my files and folders from the web interface I can simply copy the URL and use that URL later to immediately come to that file/folder if already authenticated.

    It would be nice to have the same feature on the phone so I can reference the file without making a password protected link or go to the web interface just to get the link.

    Also make the Android app handle such links so when visited from a browser or another app it goes to proton drive directly.

  14. Option to hide/remove menu bar icon in macOS

    This is mac specific; I like my desktop to be as clean as possible, and not have any unwanted or unnecessary icons in my menubar. Especially with ProtonDrive i don't see any use for it. I would like the option to hide or remove the menu bar icon from the menu bar

  16. Integrate Docs and Calendar for notes

    One very useful feature that has kept me using Google Docs & Calendar longer than I would like is that when I create a new document I'm given the option to integrated meeting details into the document to jump start on notes. It gives me the meeting details, who's coming, and pre-built sections for notes and action items. I would love the ability to accomplish the same thing with Proton Cal and Drive.

  19. Proton Drive PWA should cache its web resources

    Proton Drive's web version is installable as a PWA, but it does not cache its HTML, CSS, and JS files, requiring users to wait for them to load every time. Please make it cache them so that it can load faster and work even offline.
