  1. Auto delete Proton Drive file(s)/folder(s) after X amount of days

    As described in the title.

    (If there's an existing feature, I apologize in advance. Would the admin please kindly help me merge?)

    Similar concept to the Proton Mail's message expiration timer:
    https://proton.me/support/expiration

    Currently, only the shared link can be configured to expire after certain time, but would like the feature to delete file after certain time.

  2. Standardise file and folder sorting across apps

    The Proton Drive web app sorts folders in the left-hand file tree lexicographically but sorts files and folders in the right-hand folder content area numerically. Files and folders in the iOS/iPadOS app are sorted lexicographically.

    Let’s assume I have a folder that itself has twenty folders, each named 1 to 20. The web app sorts them as follows in the left-hand folder tree:

    1,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,2,20,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

    However, the web app sorts them as follows in the right-hand folder content area:

    1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20

    This is confusing. The sorting method should be standardised across all areas of all apps. Should that standard be sorting numbers…

  3. Add a button to download all photos from the photos section of Proton Drive

    In the photos section of the web interface, I see no option to download all the photos. When I select photos, I can download the selection and I can even select by months, but not by years and there is no select all button. Selecting many years of photos by months to download all of them is very tedious. It would be helpful to add a select all button or a download all button. Also, it would be great if photos could somehow be synced into the Proton Drive folder via the PC app.

  4. Set External Drive as main location

    My mac is the lowest spec but because of the speed of M processors it runs all my software for work better than any PC i've ever had. The cost of having a massive storage space inside my Mac is the reason I cannot use Proton Drive at the moment. I have 1TB external SSD which is my Dropbox location, if I could set Proton Drive to my external SSD as the main folder my life would instantly be better. I actually love how Proton Drive functions and am desperate to get out of the chaotic Dropbox ecosystem. Please explore…

  5. "Incomplete" Proton Sheets viewer

    A complete Proton Sheets would be nice, yet a simple viewer for sheets (.ods, .xls, etc) would be enough for me 30% of the time
    An "incomplete" sheet-editor (no calc needed in the first place) might be another simple solution until we have Proton calcit spreadsheets.

  6. Checkbox Functionality for Sheets

    When dealing with boolean values in a spreadsheet, they should be able to be displayed as checkboxes. I should be able to insert a checkbox to set a cell to false, and click on that checkbox to set it to true. Ideally they would be handled as booleans by formulas. Also this should go without saying but it took Excel a while to get it right: a checkbox is inside a cell, to represent the boolean data of that cell.

  7. 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.

  8. Easy-to-share links for shared folders and files (URL shortener)

    It would be great to have an optional feature that generates short, easy-to-share links for shared folders and files. For example: pm.me/share/<share_id>. This would make sharing simpler across emails, chats, and mobile devices, while still keeping the full URL available for those who prefer it.

  9. Sheets - CTRL+K to insert link

    CTRL+K should function exactly the same as the "Insert link" button in the toolbar.
    This is faster than clicking a button, especially with a screen size where the "Insert link" button is hidden in the dropdown menu.

  10. Would love a .gitignore-like feature for file sync

    I’d love to have a gitignore-style ignore file when syncing a folder from a computer. It would make it easy to exclude certain files or subfolders from being synced useful in cases like development folders where some content (temporary files) doesn’t need to be uploaded.

    I'm considering moving away from GitHub for my personal projects I’d prefer not to store them there anymore. But right now, I don’t have a better solution that keeps everything in sync while letting me exclude unnecessary files. That’s why a feature like this would really help.

    Apologies if this isn’t in line with the…

  11. Spreadsheet: protect cells at cell level. Just like Google Sheets.

    Again a feature that I supposed to be standard in a spreadsheet. After all we don't want our customers to mess up the sheet. And they will if they can.

  12. Importing photos from a Google Photos takeout should preserve photo captions

    Google Photos supports adding captions to photos in albums and outside them. It is very useful eg for wildlife photography, to document what species is seen in each photo. The captions are exported as metadata in a Google Takeout. However, during the import of the takeout into Proton Drive Photos, the captions are ignored. This makes moving captioned albums from Google Photos to Proton Drive less appealing than it could be.

  13. Integration of folders and files shared with you.

    It would be really great if we could move my owned files to folders that have been shared with me. I don't need to remove from shared folders but being able to add a doc I have created in my own files and folders to a folder someone else has shared with me.

  15. Proton Foto mit Archiv?

    Proton Foto ist leider sehr rudimentär, im Gegensatz zu Mail oder der Cloud. Wann wird es weiterentwickelt, sodass es Funktionen wie Immich, Ente oder Google Fotos hat? Etwa eine Archiv-Funktion? Oder eine Extra-App?

  16. Add Row/Column Groups to Proton Sheets

    I track many things in my spreadsheets and grouping is a lifesaver. When I decide to track the TV series that I have watched by Season and suddenly there are 1000 rows in my spreadsheet, it would be almost impossible without grouping together first alphabetically and then by show as a secondary/subgroup. This makes it much easier to find what I am looking for and not be bombarded with however many rows in each spreadsheet.

    This is one of the two main things keeping me with google sheets at the moment and I would love to fully switch over once…

  17. 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.

  20. Proton sheets/docs/Slides scripting

    Please add a scripting language for Proton Sheets first, then the others! Javascript would be good, at least to access the documents' catalogue like name (or sheet name for sheets, etc)
