Make Photos in "My Files" visible in the Photos section and vice versa
Make Photos in "My Files" visible in the Photos section and vice versa.
Managing Photos as a subset of Files is a fairly standard use case if you want to Synch with Desktop (which is critical to me).14 votes -
Customizable keyboard shortcuts in Proton Docs and Sheets
I use Proton Docs and Proton Sheets extensively, both in my professional work and in a medical practice. Since I prefer keyboard-focused workflows, reliable keyboard shortcuts are very important to me.
Unfortunately, some of Proton’s current shortcuts conflict with operating-system and keyboard-layout shortcuts. For example, on Windows with a German keyboard layout,
Ctrl + Altis interpreted similarly toAltGr. As a result, pressingCtrl + Alt + 2in Proton Docs types the character²instead of applying a level-two heading. The same issue appears to affect other formatting shortcuts, such as quotations and code formatting.It would therefore be very helpful if users could customize keyboard shortcuts in Proton Docs and Proton Sheets.
Possible solutions could include:
- Fully customizable keyboard shortcuts.
- A choice between Proton’s default shortcuts and an alternative shortcut set that avoids common operating-system conflicts.
- Presets based on the operating system or keyboard layout, such as Windows, macOS, Linux, German, or US English.
Markdown shortcuts are a useful workaround for some functions in Proton Docs, but they do not cover every feature and do not solve the broader problem in Proton Sheets.
Customizable or layout-aware shortcuts would make Proton Docs and Sheets much more convenient for keyboard-focused workflows and more accessible to users with non-US keyboard layouts.
Thank you for considering this feature.

- When browsing photos in Albums, it is impossible to add them to another album. You have to go look for it in the main photos tab .. which can take a lot of time
- Allow adding and removing from Favorites using multiple selection
- Allow different sorting options in photos : size, date taken, date uploaded ..

Direct Download Link
When sharing a file, the recipient has to open a web page, find the Download button and hit the button.
I understand that this process is also a free ad for your services but it would be very helpful for some people to share a direct download link: when clicking on the link the file is automatically downloaded.This can be done with other cloud providers and it's really helpful, especially with elderly persons.

Improved timeline scrolling / year selector in Photos
I have many thousand photos in Drive dating back to 2003.
The vertical timeline scroll bar in the photo gallery doesn’t work very well for such a long time span. It doesn’t fit on the screen and is “jerkey.”
Perhaps a simple drop-down to select a year or “paging” year-by-year would be better?
Performance isn’t great when scrolling through large number of photos either. If only one year were displayed per page, perhaps thumbnails for that year would load faster?

Proton Drive and VLC Player (mobile) Integration
In VLC on mobile, there is a way to link your cloud services for downloading/streaming files. There's already a list of supported cloud services (dropbox, Google Drive, pCloud) and it would be wonderful to see Proton Drive in that list!

Sizes of Folders
It would be nice to be able to see the total size of folders in Proton Drive, rather than having to sift through folders to find the sizes of their individual file contents.

Add an “Allow Downloads” On/Off Option When Sharing Files in Proton Drive
It would be very useful if Proton Drive could add an option when sharing files that allows you to choose whether someone can only view the file or also download it.
For example, a simple on/off switch:
🔘 Allow downloads
- On → The recipient can view and download the file.
- Off → The recipient can only view the file and cannot download it.
This would make Proton Drive much more user-friendly and secure, especially when sharing files with others but you don’t want them to be able to save or redistribute the files.

Let Us Choose Location of Photos in Proton Drive
We need the ability to choose the location of where we upload photos via Proton Drive app. Incase we ever wanted to leave it's hard to download. Proton Drive photos should scan media base on locations you give it

Support "mailto" links in Proton Docs
When I want to add a link to an email address ("mailto:foo@bar.baz") in Proton Docs, the link turns into "https://mailto:foo@bar.baz") and klicking on the link just opens "bar.baz" in my browser. When I edit the link address and remove the "https://" prefix, it just gets added again.
Suggestion: Either let me delete the prefix, or recognize email addresse and don't add the "https://" prefix in the first place.
Thanks!

Better assignment of photos to albums
When I viewing all photos (on web) and trying to organize them to album, then:
- selecting multiple photos hides heart icon - marking favourite photos - not a good idea when I want to pick exact one photos from series of "same" photos
- after selecting multiple photos and assigning it to album, I would like to stay at ALL PHOTOS view not jumping to album right away. It really complicates with the adding new photos to album if I want to go through all photos. Back button always returns to the first photo of all photos section.15 votes -
Support for GNOME/KDE online accounts
Using the GNOME or KDE online accounts applet you should be able to use Proton services like Proton Mail, Proton Drive, Proton Pass etc. by logging in to your Proton account. Nextcloud and Google have support for both, and Microsoft is supported in GNOME enviroments. Posted this in the Drive section since currently only the Drive app and various other early access apps cannot run natively in Linux.

Proton Sheet
Fix drag down. If I highlight dates that are in descending order and drag down to add more dates is does not add them correctly. It should be the next day such as: 8/4/2026, 8/5/2026, 8/6/2026 but then will jump to 7/9/2026, 8/9/2026, etc.

Hide Offline
Hide Offline
ProtonDrive supports 'Online Only' and 'Make Available Offline', etc. Great feature for saving space locally while still seeing/navigating folders/files.
The counter to this that I would like to see is ability to make certain folders invisible to the PC app (i.e. only visible from a browser session).

[Proton Business] Intergrate Proton Groups with Proton Drive
Proton Groups (https://proton.me/support/groups) should be integrated with Proton Drive, and allow for the creation of shared sub-drive or folders.
That is, if I have a group "Team" with several members, that Team should be able to have access to a common drive (with an allocated space from the organisation, not taped into individuals space). This would simplify access to said sub-drive while Team x is evolving.
This is a functionality that currently exists in Google Workspace, and should be available for Proton Business too.

Open documents in new window
I would like the option to right-click on a document and open it in a new window. Oftentimes, I need multiple Drive documents open simultaneously, and currently the only workaround is to have two Drive windows open at the start.

Arm linux support for proton-bridge
Currently there are no available builds for running proton-bridge on a ARM device with Linux on it. I'd love to see support for it since now i can't have my mail in 1 application but need to use a seperate web interface for only my proton based mail.

show changes in version history
Version history shows the actual state of a document, but it does not show what has changed (unlike with diff). Highlighting changes is essential to see what has been modified.

Change document or folder owner
I would like the ability to change the owner of a shared file or folder. Obviously only the owner should be able to make that change.
