  2. Partner with OnlyOffice or LibreOffice to completely replace Google Ecosystem

    Instead of making Proton Docs, Slides, etc. which take forever to make, just partner with a privacy based office suite like OnlyOffice to make everything easier.

  3. Ability to edit a document (text, SPREADSHEET & PRESENTATION) with a non-proton user

    I was very happy to hear about the document editing feature, it's the killer feature I've been waiting for to switch to ProtonDrive and abandon Kdrive !
    But two disappointments :
    - firstly, there's only a text document editing function and no spreadsheet (excel) or presentation (PowerPoint). I imagine this will come later, but why not rely directly on Onlyoffice?
    - Secondly, it's not possible to use the document editing function with a user who doesn't use protondrive ! This drastically reduces the number of use cases, which is a shame...
    Until at least these two functions are in place,…

  4. Offline access in Linux Proton Desktop app

    I was very pleased to see the release of the Proton desktop app for Linux. This feature may be coming along with the full release, but it would be excellent to have offline access to my mail and calendar through the app.

  5. Change or hide username and default email address in email sent inform about shared folders or files

    With the new sharing feature (web-version), an email is sent automatically to the recipients displaying the sender's standard username and email address. Let the user change the sender address and username (even aliases) or suppress the automatic email and send an individual email manually instead. The username and standard email address might confuse the recipient and breach the individual privacy policy of the sender.

  6. 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!

  7. Fix Proton Drive Photo backup date recognition

    Currently, when backing up or uploading photos to Proton Drive, it ignores Date Created and Last Modified dates, and instead seems to use the uploaded date as the date in the photo timeline, meaning migrating to Proton Drive for all photos results in loosing the timeline previous to the upload date, as all images are now stored on the same date.
    An improvement would be to use either the files date created or last modified dates to designate where it should be on the Proton Drive timeline
    Thanks

  8. Protons Docs Increase File Size Limit

    I have some documents with a lot of images that I'd like to migrate to Proton Docs, and they far exceed the current limit. It'd be nice if the size of the docs could be only limited by how much Proton Drive storage I have left (which is hundreds of GB), instead of 25 MB per doc.

  9. Show files shared with me in Proton Drive apps

    When I open the Proton Drive app on iPhone or Macbook, I can't see files that another person has shared with me in Proton Drive.

    I can only see them if I log in using a web browser.

    In Drive Web or Desktop App, Files and Folders which have been shared to one Person (Shared with me Tab), should be able to be copied or moved to "My Files" Tab without the neccessity to download and reupload to/from a local Computer.

  11. EPUB - Reader in app and on web

    Epub files can be uploaded to proton drive, but not read directly in the app or on web as a PDF file can. I have collection of Epub and pdf books that would be great to read directly on proton. When read I will move from Dropbox

  12. Option to keep a local copy of synced Proton Drive files on computer ("file mirroring" rather than "file streaming")

    On MacOS, Proton Drive 'streams' files: there is no local copy, but files can be searched and downloaded on request.

    With 'mirroring', there is also a local copy on your hard drive. This is for instance useful for:

    • Backing up Proton Drive files locally
    • Accessing files if there's no internet connection

    Google Drive offers you to choose between 'streaming' and 'mirroring' for every folder in your Drive. That would help getting the best of both worlds.

  14. Open files outside Proton Drive in Android

    Many file formats are not supported by Proton Drive, like ods, docx, etc.
    Currently, the only way to open them is by downloading them first.
    There should be a way to open those files directly in an external app.

  15. More attention to Linux

    I really like Proton's solutions, but you're clearly failing to give Linux users their due! I currently use MEGA because it has a Linux client.

  16. Edit Markdown or txt files directly

    I have a bunch of markdown and txt files I'd love to migrate over from my current cloud service. I can store them, but editing them creates a new file in the ProtonDrive format. It would be great to be able to edit these files directly so any online changes can be synced with the desktop app.

  17. Fonts in Docs

    Working with a type expert to curate a list of 20 or 30 high quality open license fonts to cover the majority of use cases would be a huge step toward legitimizing Proton Docs. I can understand why you might not want to utilize GFonts but it is one of the killer features that keep people tied to GDocs. As an educated amateur I would be happy to help with this, but someone like TypeWolf ( https://www.typewolf.com/ ) would be a great choice as a consultant.

  18. More storage options 5T + and more affordables plans... maybe offering 2year subscription plans

    Please offer more storage options, at more affordable rate... maybe 2yearly plans too.. similarly to IceDrive. Their implementation as system hard drive is great too. Would love to see this feature on protondrive as I think more user would switch from Icedrice or other cloud services... For professional users Proton is just not enough for the price.

  19. Proton Docs "Outline" Sidebar derived from Heading usage, like Google Docs

    This is a killer feature of Google Docs - the ability to use the autogenerated Outline sidebar to jump around the sections of a doc, whether it's a design doc, a log of meeting notes by date, etc. etc.
