1. 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.

3. 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.

4. Pause Photo Backup Proton Drive

   Pause Photo Backup
   Proton Drive Android
   Sometimes instant backup is inconvenient because:
   I want to delete some photos and videos in a moment (deleting them on my phone and then on the cloud is imprecise and time-consuming)
   I want to save battery power when I don't have anywhere to charge my phone right away.

6. Add speech to text functionality to Proton Docs.

   Having the ability to speak to the Proton Docs application and have it turn the speech into text would make it much easier to compose long-form written material, especially if it is sensitive by nature. I do not trust other programs to keep such things safe and private.

7. 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.

8. Synchronization with multiple PCs

   I always have the same folder on my PCs for the data I need, and I'd like to synchronize this folder. Unfortunately, this isn't possible with Proton Drive. When setting up Proton Drive on my second PC, I keep getting the message "Invalid synchronization folder; the folder must be empty before setting up synchronization."

   This is a significant limitation that's only acceptable with free, open-source drives.

9. Option/simple setting for all files to be online only

   I would like to be able to set my Proton Drive on my Mac to have all files accessible online only. I constantly find that files have downloaded to my Mac, reducing my disk space, even when I have not opened up the file in the Proton Drive.
   I have tried to correct this numerous times by going through every file and setting them individually to online only, but this setting does not "stick". It would also be good to be able to set directories online only on a case-by-case basis.

10. A thought on spreadsheet architecture (from a grateful user)

    Hi Proton Team,
    First off, I want to say that what you've built with Proton Docs is genuinely impressive. End-to-end encrypted spreadsheets that actually work is no small feat, and I really appreciate the engineering that went into making this happen.
    I've been using your spreadsheet app and thinking a lot about architecture lately. What you've accomplished is amazing—truly. But I also believe that trying to build the same thing in different ways can teach you a lot, even if you never ship it. I wish I could rewrite all my own apps in every language and framework just to see what I'd learn. But if I had to choose just one thing to rewrite, one experiment that felt like it might reveal something fundamental... I'd rewrite a spreadsheet app in SolidJS.
    I know how this sounds. It feels a bit like suggesting someone reconsider their religion, and I've been hesitant to even bring it up. And look—I could be completely wrong about this. I don't know your codebase. I don't know what you've already tried or what constraints you're working under. I'm looking at this from the outside, and I'm sure there are a hundred things I'm not seeing.
    But here's the thing that keeps nagging at me, and I could be completely wrong about this—I don't know all the facts of your architecture or the constraints you're working under—but: spreadsheet cells are literally signals.
    I mean this in the most fundamental, computer science sense. A cell holds a value. When that value changes, dependent cells recalculate. That's it. That's a signal. And React... React doesn't really think in signals. It thinks in snapshots and reconciliation.
    Right now, when I edit a cell in your spreadsheet, React has to:

    Re-run component functions
    Build a new virtual DOM tree
    Diff it against the old tree
    Figure out what changed
    Update the DOM

    Or at least, that's how I understand it works. I could be missing optimizations you've implemented that I can't see from the outside. But in principle, a spreadsheet cell doesn't need a diff. It knows exactly what changed—its value. And it knows exactly who needs to know—the cells that reference it.
    This is where signal-based reactivity (like what SolidJS uses) becomes almost eerily perfect for spreadsheets. Not because SolidJS is "better" (I know how loaded that word is), but because the mental model matches the problem domain exactly:
    A1 = 5 // This is a signal
    A2 = A1 * 2 // This is a computed signal
    When A1 changes, only A2 updates. No diffing. No reconciliation. No re-rendering parent components. Just: "A1 changed, tell A2." That's it.
    I realize I'm oversimplifying massively, and maybe I'm missing something fundamental about why this wouldn't work in practice. I know you've got virtualization, you've got workers handling crypto, you've got complex state management for collaboration, and you've got a whole ecosystem built on React. There are probably architectural decisions I'm completely unaware of that make this harder—or maybe even impossible—than I'm imagining.
    But I also can't shake this feeling that you're fighting React's fundamental architecture every time a cell updates. You've done an amazing job making it work (seriously, the fact that it works as well as it does is a testament to your engineering), but it's like... you've built a beautiful house with the wrong foundation for the soil type, you know?
    Or maybe I'm completely off base. Maybe React is actually perfect for this and I'm just not seeing it.
    Here's what I'm actually suggesting (and please feel free to ignore this):
    Maybe it's worth experimenting with a signal-based approach for just the grid layer? Not a full rewrite. Not even for production. Just... to see. To learn what happens when the mental model aligns so perfectly with the problem. It could be SolidJS, or Preact Signals, or even a custom implementation. The framework doesn't matter as much as the fundamental reactivity model.
    Because I genuinely believe you'd learn something valuable, even if you never ship it. Sometimes the act of building the same thing differently reveals insights about the original that you couldn't see any other way.
    And if the theory holds—if signals really could be 5-10x faster for spreadsheet operations (which the benchmarks suggest, though I know benchmarks lie), and if they use significantly less memory—then for something like Proton Docs, which people use for work, where performance and reliability matter, those insights might be worth exploring. Even if it just confirms that React was the right choice all along.
    I know this is a big ask, even as an experiment. I know you have a roadmap. I know React works and has a huge ecosystem and hiring is easier and a million other practical reasons to stick with what you have. And I'm not saying you're wrong for using React—it was probably the right choice when you started.
    But if I could rewrite just one of my apps to learn something fundamental about architecture, it would be this. A spreadsheet in signals. Because it just... fits.
    I'm just saying... spreadsheet cells are signals. And sometimes when something just makes sense at that fundamental level, it's worth exploring. Even just as an experiment.
    Or maybe it's not worth it. Maybe you've already run these numbers and they don't add up. Maybe there's something about signals that breaks with encryption, or collaboration, or some other piece I can't see from here. I genuinely don't know.
    Again, I love what you've built. I'm rooting for you. And if you've already considered this and decided against it—or if I'm just fundamentally misunderstanding the problem—I completely understand.
    Thanks for listening to my rambling.

11. PIN/Password (instead of a long password) in Proton Drive Windows apps (like the Proton Pass app)

    The PIN feature in the Proton Drive app is great for shared devices or work use, so no one else can access my Proton Drive app.

13. Proton Sheets - Cell Auto-Complete

    In Excel / Google Sheets, when you start typing a value in a cell that exists in the same column, you can see the suggested auto-complete option to match a previous entry, saving time having to write out a duplicate value when you've begun typing it.

    Proton Sheets doesn't have this currently, would be worth entering.

14. Allow rename of file when saving on Android app

    When saving a file on Android by "sharing" from another app, you can choose the destination folder but there doesn't seem to be a way to change the name of the file before you upload it.

    Suggested feature: by tapping on the current name of the file, you can change the name before tapping upload.

15. Be able to sweep between images in Proton Drive mobile App

    This is about Proton Drive mobile App (iOs in my case).
    Currently if there are several images in the folder, I have to open an image, then close it, then open another, etc.
    I would like to be able to sweep directly between the images in the folder. It would be a more fluent experience :)
    Thank you

17. Add the ability to download a .protondoc document from the mobile app

    Currently, in the mobile version it’s impossible to download a .protondoc file (why such an odd format in the first place?). I’m forced to go online (and even use the desktop version) to download the document. It would be great to be able to do this directly within the app.

    It seems surprising that such basic features aren’t already implemented (just like the search function, which still doesn’t exist in the mobile app…).
