  1. Enable Syncing with external Drives

    I need the feature to be able to sync not just local folders on your PC, but also from external drives attached to my PC.

    I read that this can pose a safety threat. But I still very much like to have all my data stored on a cloud and a physical drive in case I lose access or have any other problems with my cloud. I am currently using pCloud, and they allow that. That is quite the essential feature for me.

    So please allow syncing with external drives as well.

  3. Spell checker for Proton Doc

    For Proton Doc, it would be critical for me to get a spell checker that checks both spelling and grammar and allows users to choose the language for each document independently.

  4. Smart quotation marks

    Hey everyone. I want to use proton docs to write fiction in, but they don't currently have smart quotation marks enabled (unless I can't see?! but I have searched for an option). I know you can use Word to change them easily, but I use Libre Office where you can't find and replace them easily, and it'd mean changing every single quote mark by hand. Would love to have smart quotes in proton so I can stop using google drive to draft stories on the go.

  5. "recent" files in Drive so I can access files faster than clicking through my library to get to each individual file

    In the subject above--this might be able to be an option in that dropdown menu on the left side of the screen that currently just mirrors file paths.

  6. Ability to make shortcuts.

    Ability to make shortcuts of not just personal files but files shared to us too, just like Google Drive.

  7. Auto‑create albums in Proton Drive Android backup

    When the Android Gallery backs up photos to Proton Drive, the app currently uploads all images into a flat folder structure. It would be very helpful to have an option that automatically creates albums in Proton Drive that mirror the albums (folders) already defined in the device’s Gallery.

    • Detect each existing Gallery album at backup time.
    • Create a matching album (folder) in Proton Drive.
    • Place the corresponding photos inside that album, preserving the original organization.

    This would make it easier for users to locate and share grouped photos without having to manually recreate the album hierarchy after the backup.

  8. Proton Docs: Convert Case

    I would like a feature to change the case of selected text. For example, change "I have a dog named Bruno" to:

    • all caps ("I HAVE A DOG NAMED BRUNO")
    • all lower case ("i have a dog named bruno")
    • title case ("I Have a Dog Named Bruno")

  9. See date instead of file name

    When I view a photo inside the Proton Drive gallery, I would like to see the date of the photo rather than the file name, as I find it more useful.

  10. Ability to set a network data speed cap

    Would be extremely useful to have a network cap when downloading / uploading in Proton Drive. I run the risk of not being able to do any tasks that requires network in the background while Drive is working as it hogs all the data for itself.

  11. 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.

  12. FSP (File Storage Provider) support for iOS and iPadOS

    There is support for FSP on macOS for Proton Drive, however it is missing for both iOS and iPadOS. The consequence is that I cannot add a Proton folder as location in for example iA Writer. The net effect is that any file stored on Proton Drive that I want to open, must be manually found through browsing from the root of my Proton Drive. With FSP support on iOS and iPadOS any folder should be available immediately in the interface.

    The missing part in the implementation is full folder sharing support in said protocol.

    It works flawlessly on macOS.…

  13. Sharable links to be used in HTML tags, like img or audio

    I wanted to host my artistic art here (MP3 and PNG, as I compose and draw) to share them on my personal website. However, the shared links aren't compatible for HTML tags. Google Drive also has this issue.

  14. "Sharing" Dialog for the invited audience

    As an invited person I do not see with whom this item is shared, neither on documents nor for folders.
    From a privacy perspective it could be dangerous to add any sensitive information without knowing who is able to see this.
    Of course, the owner could change it at any time, but at least for the moment for adding information, I would be able to decide.

  15. Set "Default View" and "Default Sorting" for a shared folder

    It is not possible to pre-set a view or sorting for a share. This could be helpful to give the audience a better entry point, if the amount of folder and files is too big and the owner organized it in a specific way.

  16. Smarter styles for docs, ability to edit them

    I really appreciate the ability to change the properties of different heading styles in Docs, the way google docs does it is just fine, the "update to fit selection."

  18. Bring Back Upload Rate

    Proton Drive changed the UI/UX of file uploads. This change removed the MB/s indicator on the right of the file name in the upload menu on the bottom right of the page. This post requests the Proton Drive Team to re-add the indicator for the upload rate for the files.
    Currently, only the total MB uploaded / total MB to be uploaded is shown for each file.

  19. Heading Column for Proton Doc

    Proton Doc has multiple heading levels.
    Should be there a column on left side for the heading outline?

    Since the comment column is already on the right, then the heading column should be on the left then.

  20. Backup on schedule

    Would be great to have an option to backup on schedule. Problem I have now is if a program does a lot of real time changes in a folder, then Proton Drive will go rampant with trying to save these changes to the cloud and often bug out because the files are in use etc.
