  1. Delete trash

    Allow users to access and delete trash in the desktop app. Ideally I’d also like to have an indicator showing how much of my used space is in the trash

  2. Branded download pages for Drive

    Hi Team and Community,

    As a professional delivering files on the daily, I'd love to see the introduction of a customisable and branded landing page for shared files à-la-WeTransfer, allowing professionals to remain on-brand and professional for file deliveries using Proton Unlimited or other paid tiers (for Drive).

    I'm thinking of graphic designers, agencies, photographers, but every B2B/B2C business could benefit from this seemingly easy-to-implement feature.

    Suggestions include :
    - a custom URL tail,
    - adding a background,
    - adding a logo,
    - adding contact info / socials.

    Big bonus if you somehow figure out how to let us customise…

  3. Show users you’ve already shared something with as suggestions when sharing.

    Right now, it only shows email addresses you’ve already emailed with. But that’s mostly irrelevant. Users you’ve actually shared stuff with don’t show up at all. Me (and I guess others) have contacts we share things with but have never mailed. These should appear as suggestion when sharing.

  4. Add a tool for convert documents

    I think this is an excellent additional feature, not only for documents and images, but also for audio and video files.

  6. name doc

    Auto suggest name for a doc based on fist line of text in the doc.

    It is a tiny nit, but a really nice feature GDoc has -- open a new doc, type int he title of the doc, click on rename, it suggests the title text as the name,

  7. Thumbnail support for modern formats, like WebP, HEIF and HEVC

    Newer smartphones make use of modern formats for storage of photos and videos. These formats include WebP and HEIF for photos and HEVC and WebM for video. Adding thumbnail and metadata support for these formats allows us to make better use of the albums feature, without having to convert these files before storage.

  8. Proton Docs Desktop App

    Alongside the desktop Proton Drive app should be the option to have a desktop Proton Docs capability so that you can edit, create, or delete your Docs from the desktop without it having to be in the browser. Syncing across devices accordingly and the ability to work offline on the desktop. This would allow for easier use of functioning on an ongoing basis without having to do it on the web every time.

  9. Sharepoint Alternative

    I know this is a big request but a sharepoint alternative would be amazing, having pages, lists and document libraries would get larger organisations over.

  10. Virtual Machine Disk Space

    With the terabytes of storage you have given me going unused it would be useful to have a proton run virtual platform that allows me to utilize and format some of that as disk space allocatable to virtual machines for remote mounting.

  11. Render Photo Captions/Titles from the Photo's metatdata

    (a) When viewing the photo gallery, optionally, display the photo's caption/title.

    This would have to be done carefully as there are many candidate places in a photo that a "caption" of sorts is stored: jpeg caption, jpeg title, etc..

    (b) The ability to edit the "caption" metadata and then modify the source file.

    This means that all the effort that goes into captioning photos would not be lost as the edits would "stick" with the photo. If completed, this would make Proton Photos better than any other cloud Photo applications - as all the other store the caption away fro…

  12. Expand Proton Drive Search to Include Trash, PCs, and Mobile Devices

    As a Visionary Plan user, I use Proton Drive a lot for storing and managing my files. It would be really helpful if the search feature could be expanded to include:

    Trash Folder: Right now, finding deleted files in the Trash is hard because there's no search. Adding search here would make it much easier to recover lost files quickly.
    Files on My PCs and Mobile Devices: Currently, search only works for files inside Proton Drive. If it could also search files on my linked devices, it would save me a lot of time and make managing my files much…

  13. Buy and integrate excalidraw!

    Excalidraw is an end-to-end-encrypted Miro-Alternative. It would be great to integrate it into Proton Drive for all the business users.

  15. On-Demand file syncing for windows & synchronisation of PCs

    Trying to change from Onedrive, but it's on-demand file download is too powerful. Apps & Games being able to call for and wait for a Onedrive download automatically should be a feature of Proton Drive.

    Also ability to have all Windows PCs synced under one location in Proton drive. so they all have the same files available. Proton Drive having PCs have there own individual folders was a big let down when I was changing over.

    Similar but different post: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932839-proton-drive/suggestions/45727027-selective-syncing-of-files-for-mac-linux-windows

  16. Automatic Substitute Feature

    A feature where we can manually add substitutions. For example, I like to use em dashes in my writing (—) but it's difficult to do on my regular keyboard, so I used the substitute feature in the other docs I use to automatically substitute "--" to "—" and use it with other things, too, like adding accented letters automatically onto names (turning eon to éon for example). I know there are keyboards out there that can do it, but I've never been able to find one that works conveniently enough for my writing, and this is a relatively minor but…

  17. Replacing modified files on Proton Drive Android

    Since currently the only way to modify a file on Android is to download it, modify it, and then upload it, the fact that when you upload the modified file, instead of replacing it, it duplicates it.

    This makes things difficult because after the upload, you have to delete the previous file and rename the modified file.

    It would therefore be very useful if, when you upload a file already in the cloud, it was replaced instead of being duplicated. This would make things much easier.

  19. Offline support for documents on iOS

    When I have no internet on my iPhone and I open Proton Drive, the spinner keeps going indefinitely even if I have offline documents. Having this flow defeats the purpose of having offline documents in the first place because when I am offline I cannot access them.

  20. Add Conditional Sync Pause Feature for Proton Drive

    I use Proton Drive to back up certain files for a game. However, it causes significant performance issues when the game is running due to constant synchronization. Currently, I have to manually pause the syncing, which requires me to remember to manually sync the files later.

    A feature that pauses syncing based on specific conditions would be very helpful. These conditions could include:

    • When a window is in full-screen mode
    • When certain processes are running (like games)

    This feature would benefit not only gamers but also anyone who needs a stable internet connection during critical tasks.
