Add to album list order
It's not clear what's the order in the "add to album" list from a selected photo. It should be by name, or better to be selectable (date, alphabetical...) or searchable with a text box.

Shared drives
I find Shared Drives in Google Workspace very useful. It's very easy to navigate, search and find information within the organisation for every team member (not only for the admin or user who created the file or folder). It would be nice to have a feature in Proton Business

Improved Trash UX (Photo Previews & Bulk Selection)
Photo previews in trash: The deleted photos in trash appear like a file directory with a very small thumbnail that loads very slowly. And i can't preview them on web. I would like to see the trash folder look exactly like a media gallery and display large clear thumbnails of every photo or video that's deleted and that can be opened.
(Google photos has these features)
Multiple selection: On the mobile app you have to delete each item individually from the trash to erase it permanently which makes deleting multiple photos very time consuming. Bulk selection of photos in trash…

importXML or equivalant function
It's my most used google sheets function, and I'd love to be able to fully transition over to proton.

Link sharing: Add "Request Access" Approval for Shared Links (Google Drive-style)
Please add a "Request Access / Manual Approval" option for shared links in Proton Drive.
How it should work:
When someone clicks a shared link, they cannot immediately access the file / folder.
Instead, they see a button like "Request Access."
The owner receives a notification and can approve or deny each request, tied to the requester's email address.Why this matters:
Prevents link leaks. Even if the URL is forwarded, only approved people get access.
Gives owners more granular control, without relying only on passwords or expiry dates.
Matches a feature users are already familiar with from Google Drive,…6 votes -
Render correct photo ratio in Photos and Album overviews
Currently all photos are rendered with the same portrait aspect ratio, which does not correctly represent the images correctly. It would be nice if users had an option to display the original aspect ratio all scaled to the same height or some other dynamic layout which displays the full image scaled down for the overview.

Separate photos taken by camera
Right now, after making proton drive sync all my photos from my phone, I can either view photos and screenshots, or only screenshots. There is no "only pictures taken by you" option, or at least an "everything else" option.

[Proton Business] Intergrate Proton Groups with Proton Drive
Proton Groups (https://proton.me/support/groups) should be integrated with Proton Drive, and allow for the creation of shared sub-drive or folders.
That is, if I have a group "Team" with several members, that Team should be able to have access to a common drive (with an allocated space from the organisation, not taped into individuals space). This would simplify access to said sub-drive while Team x is evolving.
This is a functionality that currently exists in Google Workspace, and should be available for Proton Business too.

When currently editing a document when you have many documents open, it would be handy if I knew the location open document
I am a YouTube creator, and I often have many documents open at once, and sometimes I don't recall what folder the document I'm working on is in. It would be very help full if you could include the folder structure location of any document I'm working with. For example: Production\Voiceovers\ or Product\Scripts or Production\Premiere Pro\AI Prompts\Scripts, etc. Signing up for ProtonDrive is one of the Best Decisions I've made, thank you for your work!

Add a text file reader
Adding a text file reader/opener to drive would allow users to open text files directly in drive, or add proton docs to drive.

Hide identity of uploader
Currently, a publicly shared folder in proton drive shows the address of whomever uploaded it, and this address cannot be changed to a different one than that originally tied to your account as far as I can tell.
This can be gotten around by uploading from a private window with no login, however it would be nice if it was simply an option to change or hide the identifier, at least for those who the folder is shared to or used a public share link.

Export to xls loses formatting
I have searched and cannot find other comments on this subject.
When I download sheets to xls, I get an error when trying to open with MS Office 2024 (stand alone) and all formatting is lost: column widths, bold, etc. are all gone.
It is time-consuming to re-do the formatting in xls - which is the format I need to send the file to others.
I use Proton Sheet because it is a better cloud alternative but losing formatting when downloading is a HUGE problem.
If developing a download to an open source file type (ods) is technically easier than…2 votes -
A Shared drive for company use
We have started to use Proton in our company next to Google. As long as it is still not fully functional in the same way we will keep things next to eachother. At least supporting the product development of Proton by having a paid subscription!
A small step in the right direction would be to have proper Shared Drives that are 'company owned' instead of user owned. And where you can jointly keep data stored.

Make iOS/iPadOS Drive app more powerful
The iOS/iPadOS Drive app is fine, but I find myself often gravitating towards the web app as it’s more power user friendly. I can quickly jump to any folder by expanding the folder tree, which doesn’t exist at all on mobile. Uploads are much more reliable whereas they often fail in the mobile app.

data validation list for spreadsheets
A data validation LIST option would be welcomed for spreadsheets. Each cell in the column would have a drop down menu with the available options of the predefined list.

.XLSX files - duplicate files / read-only
When opening an existing .XLSX file within Proton Drive, this creates a (1).xlsx file. Ideally it would open and update the existing file, otherwise it will continue to generate multiple duplicate files (1).xlsx, (2).xlsx, etc. Alternatively, an option to open as a read-only version here (for original uploader) might be helpful.

See favorite photos in an album
It would be incredibly useful if I could, within an album view, filter to just the photos I've liked/favorited. I take a lot of duplicate photos, so it's hard to tell at a glance which ones are the "good" photos for a particular trip.

Warn/prohibit use of filenames incompatible with filesystems commonly used on Windows, macOS, Linux.
Currently Proton drive does not warn when files saved, e.g. in macOS, have filenames incompatible with Windows filesystems. It would be greatly appreciated if a user was warned before the conflict arise when trying to check synchronisation in a different OS.

Add light theme for Proton Drive desktop app
The Proton Drive desktop app currently only supports a dark theme. Other Proton apps (Mail, Calendar, Drive web) already allow theme selection, so it would be great to have the same here.
I realize dark themes are more trendy, but for me they have a negative effect - I feel more tired and even sleepy when using them. In bright rooms the reflections also make it harder on the eyes. A light theme helps me stay more productive and matches the rest of my system.
