  1. Sort-option for folders and albums

    Organizing files and photo's is crucial for data-storage.
    It doesn't feel very complex to implement too.
    So please make it high(er) priority to be able to sort folders and albums in Proton Drive (windows/ios).

  3. Support for syncing multiple Proton Drive accounts on same machine

    Having multiple proton accounts, ie personal and business, currently only allows one of those accounts to sync Proton Drive to folders on a single machine. Need to have the ability for Proton Drive to handle different accounts with different syncing structure.

  4. Offline editing support for Documents in Proton Drive

    Just like Google Docs supports offline mode, please make it possible for me to edit Documents in Proton Drive even when I'm offline or when I have very limited Internet connection.

  5. Photo albums needs love!

    Photo albums currently have exactly zero options for sort customization. Please help!
    The ability to sort by name or date ascending or descending would be greatly appreciated.
    And album groups would be next level awesomeness. For example you could make a group called "Cats", but in it have different albums for each of your cats.
    Keep up the amazing work!

  6. Preserve Photo Metadata

    When syncing photos, it would be better if it also created the folders being synced to save having to create them in Proton Drive and move your pictures to it. Also, make it a true sync so if I delete photos from my device, it also removes them from PD.

    More importantly. Please preserve the metadata of the original file. It's really important to have your photos with the time and date stamp of when they were taken, and also the location information. This is crucial when restoring your files.

  7. Proton Docs download to .odt feature

    Besides .docx, many of us who use Linux and free/open-source software like LibreOffice Writer sometimes use .odt instead. It would be wonderful to have a direct export/download to .odt within Proton Docs

  8. sheets functionality

    Thank you for creating Spreadsheets! I would love to completely move over from Google Sheets but

    when i am typing in a cell, i should be able to hit the right or left arrow key and automatically move to the next cell over. I first have to hit ENTER to get out of editing, which moves the selected cell down a row, then I have to arrow right and up.

    Repeating this process a multitude of times becomes time restrictive in cases of heavy data entry and both Google Sheets and Excel do not behave this way.

  9. View or Filter UNCATEGORISED Photos (those NOT in any Album).

    For those of us who like to sort all of our photos into albums as we go along and may periodically wonder "Which ones haven't I filed anywhere yet?", I propose adding a view or filter of UNCATEGORISED Photos -- meaning, those not assigned to any album.

    This could be a filter on the main Photos tab -- or it could be implemented as a "magic" Album that cannot be edited by the user and automatically provides a view of all of the photos that do not exist elsewhere.

  10. Proton Docs: documents should use odt format by default

    Even if docx is a format more used, Proton should use odt instead as it is an open and standardized format while docx is proprietary and belongs to Microsoft.

  11. Lightweight notetaking/todo app

    I’m looking for a lightweight notetaking/todo app like Google Keep. I want to be able to write quick notes and organize lists (groceries, chores, tasks, etc.) in one place. It should stay in sync between my computer and my phone so I can add things anywhere. Markdown support would be great so I can bring my existing notes into it.

    Thanks for considering this!

  12. Google Takeout Import Tool for Proton Drive

    Dear Proton Team,

    I’d like to propose a new feature for Proton Drive: a dedicated Google Takeout Import Tool to streamline the process of importing data from Google Photos exports while correctly respecting the photo/video timeline.


    🛠️ Issue

    When importing videos from a Google Photos Takeout archive (photos are mostly ok), Proton Drive currently sets the file’s date based on the filesystem timestamp (e.g., when the .mp4 file was downloaded), rather than using the actual creation date stored in the accompanying .json metadata files.

    This leads to incorrect chronological ordering and loss of accurate historical context—especially for older media and…

  13. Support for the ODF file format when exporting and importing files to Docs

    If you support and live open source, you should also support ODF and not just Microsoft's docx.

    This makes the ecosystem even larger and allows for more flexible exchange.

  14. Team Folder

    Hello Proton team,

    I’d like to share a feature request regarding Proton Drive, specifically for use within families or small groups (Duo/Family plans).

    Currently, when someone shares a folder with me, it only appears under “Shared with me.” This is inconvenient for family collaboration, because:

    1. Shared folders do not appear under “My files,” so they feel separate from my main file structure.
    2. On mobile, I cannot directly save new files into a shared folder. I first have to save files into my own storage and then manually import each file into the shared folder. This is time‑consuming and not user‑friendly.

  15. local album to proton album

    The new Albums are awesome, however having to manage albums in my phone gallery and proton manually is a major design flaw. Please make it so one can sync specific local folders to proton-folders automatically, so they can be shared. This slightly cuts into this: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932839-proton-drive/suggestions/49920087-shared-photo-library

  16. Link to a Proton Drive File in Proton Sheet

    Request the ability, when creating a link in Proton Sheet, to directly retrieve the link to a file in Proton Drive, not just external links.

    Currently, to do this, we have to create public sharing links for our Proton Drive files, which is both inconvenient and not very secure if we share our Proton Sheet.

  17. Use a more widely known document format (.docx, .odt…) instead of .protondoc

    I recently tried to edit a document offline with OnlyOffice from my Proton Drive folder (synced with my account), and to my surprise I found that the document wasn’t supported because its format was .protondoc !

    Moreover, when I save a Word document as .docx on my computer and then edit it online, a second document is created in the .protondoc format, and again it can’t be edited with OnlyOffice because the format isn’t recognized !

    Why doesn’t Proton use a more common format? Is this a constraint of end‑to‑end encryption?

  18. Drive: Search within files

    The search should be able to search within files. Make that optional because it will take much longer - and probably add a small progress bar for this.

  19. More storage capacity with Proton Unlimited

    500GB storage capacity for Proton Unlimited is nowadays quite limited. Since Proton Duo offers 2TB storage, it would be reasonable for Proton Unlimited to have 1TB storage capacity.

  20. Delete current photo in the web app

    Add a "Delete" button to the single photo view in the Proton Drive web app.

    If I have several similar photos and want to keep just one of them and delete all others, I need to close the current photo, find it again in the photo list view (which can be a hard task if the photos are very similar) and delete it from there instead of just clicking "Delete" for the specific photo.
