Add photos to an album by going to a different album and adding it from there
When I go to add photos to an album, it brings be to all of my photos. It would be helpful if I had the option to navigate to existing albums to add photos from there. Or, if in the album options, to be able to select and "move to" or "copy to" a different album.

Manual sync on Windows
It seems that Proton Drive only syncs documents when the last change value changes, not when the file actually changed, which creates a problem. Windows has this annoying quirk where, if the file size didn't change, it won't update the meta data for the time the document was last saved, so even if you saved 10 times in 10 minutes, if the changes you made summed up to the same file size, Explorer will continue to show the change time as being 10 minutes prior, and the updated file with not be automatically synced. To bypass that you should add…

save as conversions that do not need download
Proton docs can be downloaded in various formats. But you cannot save to the drive in those formats, you have to download and then upload, risking leaving the document on an insecure drive!
Add a "save as" feature which works like download, but saves to the drive.

Docs: Link to another doc (and auto completion)
I want to use Proton docs as a knowledge base. A key feature I'd like is the ability to easily write links to other documents. This should include page name auto-completion.
With this functionality, we could achieve flexible collaboration with other documentation, making it viable as a replacement for tools like Obsidian.7 votes -
Knowledge Management System
Suggestion: A shareable knowledge management system
As a research student, I find that there are not many knowledgement system that can be used with good privacy, unless doing self-hosting, which is difficult for people without a lot of IT knowledge.

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.10 votes -
Proton Sheets - Create dedicated apps
It would be great if we had dedicated apps to see and edit our Proton Docs and sheets, just like Microsoft Excel and Google Sheets.
This would simplify the way we can ineract with spreadsheets on mobile.7 votes -

Plaintext and source files editing
It would be great to be able view and edit plaintext or source files.
- This one feature would allow to work with dozens of file formats in different programming/scripting languages, config files etc.
- It would allow to create quick txt/md notes, where the full blown rich text editor is not required/desired.
- It would allow to use Markdown note vaults, like those used by Obsidian.
- It would allow to use tabular data in CSV format, which might cover some use cases for the (currently missing) spreadsheets feature.
In the future, it would be also nice to have some syntax highlighting for…

Android/Photos: Store separately separate synced folders. Don't intermix Photos with Screenshots.
I miss folders under Photos section. And it would be fine to make their names match folders I selected for sync on phone.
Otherwise my photos and screenshots are all in single Photos folder. And they are too many to sort them manually between "Albums".

non‑E2EE Linux client for Proton Drive
Your blog says a Linux client is in progress, but Proton Drive cannot be taken seriously as a core product until it exists. Linux is a first‑class environment for many of your most technical users, and the absence of a native client is a fundamental gap.
If E2EE is the bottleneck, ship a non‑E2EE Linux client now with explicit warnings. Engineers know how to encrypt locally — Cryptomator, rclone, and similar tools already solve this. pCloud has used this model for years. Delivering a functional client early gives you performance data, crash reports, and real‑world usage patterns instead of waiting…

Create specific folder icons on Windows that reflect the synchronisation status of a folder. (Proton Drive Client)
On Windows, when folders are synced using the Proton Drive Client, the folder icon remains the Windows default one. It would be good to have different icons that reflect the status of the synchronisation operations.
For example, on top of the original icon
- Small green mark for "synced"
- Small blue mark for "On-going synchronisation"
- Small red mark for "Synchronisation is not active" (which could alert the user of a problem)3 votes -
Drag Select in Proton Drive
Could we please have a drag select function within Proton Drive on the Web App?
So if we select outside a file and drag, it creates a box that selects all files contained within that box.
Thank you!

Add Japanese language support to the Windows desktop app
The Proton Drive web version supports Japanese, but the Windows desktop app (v3.0.1) has no language setting and stays in English. Unlike the web version, it can't be translated with a browser either.
As a paying subscriber, I'd love a Japanese option in the desktop app. With privacy awareness growing fast in Japan, proper Japanese support would help Proton reach more users here.2 votes -

Native Home Assistant Integration for Proton Drive Backups
Hello Proton Team,
I am writing to strongly request a native integration or official API support for Home Assistant backups to Proton Drive.
The Context: Many privacy-conscious users run Home Assistant (the leading open-source home automation platform) on devices like Raspberry ***. For these users, securing local backups in a zero-knowledge cloud is a critical security requirement. Currently, Proton Drive is the ideal target due to its end-to-end encryption, but it is inaccessible for automated backups.
The Problem:
…No Public API: Unlike Google Drive or Dropbox, Proton Drive lacks a public, documented API that allows third-party applications to authenticate and3 votes -
Lumo API Compatible with Hermes Agent
I use Lumo all the time, and want to start using agents. Running LLMs locally takes too much hardware, but do not want to use other LLMs do to privacy issues. I would easily pay for a higher subscription of Proton if I could connect my local agents running on an Umbrel to an API of my Lumo

Home Assistant Backups → Proton Drive
Home Assistant is probably the most widely used home automation system, with millions of users worldwide.
Make Proton Drive available on the following page: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/#backup
This would not only be very helpful for a large number of users, but also great advertising for Proton.7 votes -
Allow for copying (a selection of) files from one album view to: another album or a new album
I want to be able to make an album with all the pictures of one broad category say: Animals,
I make an album named: Animals. And i select and add all the pictures of animals to that Album.Now i want to make an album named: Cats.
Then i want to be able to navigate to the: "Animals" Album and select from there all the pictures of cats.
That makes it so i wont have to scroll so much trough my whole library on desktop while images load slow.
I then already have a subcollection to choose from.21 votes
