Allow adding photos from Proton Drive to Albums in the web interface
Currently, there's no way to add photos that are already stored in Proton Drive to Photos when using the web interface. The only options are:
- Use the iOS or Android app
- Upload directly from your computer to Photos
Requested feature: Add the ability to browse Proton Drive and select existing photos/videos to add to an album, directly from the web interface.
Bonus: Ideally, this should work by reference rather than creating a duplicate. Adding a photo from Drive to an album shouldn't consume twice the storage quota.
Use case:Users who have already uploaded and organized photos in Proton Drive shouldn't need to switch to a mobile device or re-upload files just to add them to an album. This is especially relevant for users who primarily use the web interface or are working with large batches of photos already in Drive.

Support creating nested folders with path syntax (mkdir -p style)
When creating a new folder, allow users to enter a path with forward slashes to create the entire folder hierarchy in one step.
Example:
EnteringPhotos/Events/2021_09_Wedding/Aperitifin the "Folder name" input would create all four nested folders at once.Expected behavior:
- Folders that already exist are silently skipped
- Only missing folders in the path are created
- Works likemkdir -pon Linux/macOSWhy this helps:
Currently, organizing files into a deep folder structure requires creating each folder individually, navigating into it, then creating the next one. This is tedious when setting up a new hierarchy or importing files that need proper organization. A simple path syntax would save significant time and clicks.When creating a new folder, allow users to enter a path with forward slashes to create the entire folder hierarchy in one step.

Docs automatic text substitutions
I'd like to be able to make my own automatic text substitutions (like typing 'e to get é or ml1 to get ♂). Like, I should be able to open up my personal library of custom substitutions.

Photos: OCR/Text scanning and photo text search
In iCloud Photos, I find it very useful that in my massive photo library I can search for text appearing in my photos. This makes searching for old pictures of documents (like a business card from three years ago) very easy. Optical Character Recognition (OCR), from my understanding, is much less computationally intensive than image classification or facial recognition, so it would be easier to implement before those in Proton Drive to scan your library and easier to run via local models, and still add a lot in terms of search functionality.

Basic Highlighting!
The highlighting feature as-is is very limited: why can't I just choose the background color and the text color separately? I would literally like to "highlight" a section of text in yellow, and I can't just pick black text with yellow background. Please allow more basic options or basic flexibility, instead of only a certain pre-built text / color combinations. Thanks!

Configure periodic sync of a file?
Is there any type of configuration option for proton drive to periodically back up a specific file, as opposed to backing up only files for which the date/time/size has changed?
For an encrypted container such as created by truecrypt or veracrypt, the date/time/size don't change even though the contents of the container are modified. Is there a way to configure proton drive to, for example, back up a specific file once a week?
Thanks

Collection of Default Templates for Docs
A small collection of generic document templates to select from would be very helpful to get started, showcase design/formatting features and different use cases. A good template also helps with user training by providing examples not just of what can be done, but the settings and formatting used to create it.
The convenience of having some preformatted docs is a huge time saver.

Proton 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.

Provide an option to enable pooled storage.
In Duo or Family, currently we can split the available storage between users.
This is problematic because i would constantly watch out for free space and play with the allocation slider. Why??
I think there should be an option to share the whole available storage space, so that it becomes pooled. The data could still be separated or shared optionally between the users.
I know there was probably some reason to set this.up the way it is now, but it's always nice to have an option.

Name, Modified, & Size Filters Specific to Each Page, w/ Memory
I often like to sort the contents of some folders by "name", and some by "modified" date.
1. It would be great to have a global, and folder level memory, such that you can have some folders remain sorted by "modified" date, even if you apply "name globally".
2. Secondly, for some reason, "modified" only seems to pertain to the end item its self, instead of the contents. For instance, if I have a 5 folders and within one of them I edit a Doc., the folder order will not change even though the contents of one of them has shifted, only the order of the Docs. within the folder will change. When you are using the "modified" filter, most often you are trying to put your most frequently accessed documents first. It would then make sense to me that every folder level out from the end Doc. adjusted should also be bumped up. I hope that makes sense.Loving the product. Keep up the good work!

Sanitize Shared Photos
It would be nice to be able to optionally sanitize photos I share with someone. I do want my own photos to include the full metadata available, and sometimes I do want to share that with someone. But sometimes I want to share a photo with someone and I want to know they are not holding onto all the metadata my phone included with it. So it would be nice if sharing photos with someone also had an option to share a version of that photo that has the metadata sanitized.
This seems to be a very important issue, as this directly impacts the privacy of the users using photos and the sharing feature.
