  1. Proton Mail - Sorting custom filters

    Being able to sort the custom filters based on alphabetical order like it is already possible to filter your Folder and Labels.
    This would make sure the managing of multiple filters is easy and convenient.

  2. hide "saving" rotating wheel icon in proton docs

    Please have an option to remove the spinning wheel "Saving" icon next to your document title as you type. It is distracting while thinking and typing. I have "disable animations" turned on in accessibility settings and so i was surprised to see the save icon still changes ever time i start or stop typing. It would be really nice to not have a constantly moving element right in my line of sight while I am working. Thank you!

  5. # 0107 User‑friendly onboarding in Topic Maps for non‑technical users

    Hi Proton team,

    I’d like to propose a single feature that would improve Proton Drive:

    Idea: Add clear onboarding tooltips, short tutorial videos, and example tag sets to help users who are not comfortable with metadata understand and adopt the new Tag/Topic Map functionality.

    Why it matters:

    • Reduces the learning curve for casual or non‑technical users, encouraging wider adoption.
    • Prevents misuse (e.g., overly generic tags) by guiding best practices.
    • Aligns with Proton’s mission to make privacy‑first tools accessible to everyone.

    Suggested implementation (high‑level):

    • When the Tag button first appears, show a one‑time tooltip explaining “What is a tag?” with a “Got it” dismiss…

  6. # 0106 Bulk‑tagging UI. Bulk‑tagging UI (multi‑select → “Add Tag”) for Proton Drive

    Hi Proton team,

    I’d like to propose a single feature that would improve Proton Drive:

    Idea: Provide a bulk‑tagging workflow where users can select multiple files/folders, right‑click, and choose “Add Tag” to apply one or more tags to all selected items at once.

    Why it matters:

    • Saves time for scientists, educators, and any power user who needs to label large asset libraries.
    • Encourages consistent tagging because applying a tag to many items becomes frictionless.
    • Mirrors bulk‑action patterns already present in other file‑management tools.

    Suggested implementation (high‑level):

    • Extend the multi‑select toolbar with an “Add Tag” button.
    • Open a modal where the user can…

  7. # 0105 Search & filter integration + “Topics” sidebar

    Hi Proton team,

    I’d like to propose a single feature that would improve Proton Drive:

    Idea: Extend the existing search bar to filter by tag and add a permanent “Topics” sidebar that lists all user‑defined tags for quick navigation.

    Why it matters:

    • Users can instantly locate all items with a given tag without opening multiple folders.
    • The sidebar provides a visual overview of the tagging taxonomy, helping non‑technical users discover related content.
    • Complements the virtual Topic Map view and encourages consistent tagging practices.

    Suggested implementation (high‑level):

    • Index encrypted tag metadata locally and perform tag‑filtered search client‑side.
    • Add a collapsible “Topics” panel on the…

  8. # 0104 Permission inheritance for Topic Map virtual collections

    Hi Proton team,

    I’d like to propose a single feature that would improve Proton Drive:

    Idea: Make virtual Topic Maps inherit the most restrictive sharing permissions of the items they contain, with an optional override to set separate permissions for the collection itself.

    Why it matters:

    • Guarantees that a virtual collection never exposes a file to a broader audience than the file’s original sharing settings.
    • Allows teams to create a “read‑only” view of a project while keeping the underlying assets private.
    • Aligns with Proton’s zero‑knowledge model – permissions are enforced client‑side.

    Suggested implementation (high‑level):

    • When a Topic Map is rendered, compute the intersection of…

  9. # 0103 Docs/Sheets creation from a Topic Map

    Hi Proton team,

    I’d like to propose a single feature that would improve Proton Drive:

    Idea: Enable users to create a new Proton Doc or Sheet from within a Topic Map, automatically inheriting the map’s tag(s) and sharing settings.

    Why it matters:

    • Project documentation stays logically linked to the same set of assets, reducing the chance of orphaned files.
    • Teams can spin up meeting notes, design specs, or spreadsheets that are instantly discoverable via the same tag.
    • Keeps the workflow inside Drive, avoiding the need to manually copy‑paste links.

    Suggested implementation (high‑level):

    • Add a “New Doc from Topic” button in the Topic Map view.
    • The…

  10. # 0101 Tag‑based grouping. Topic Map based grouping(tags)for files/folders in Proton Drive

    Hi Proton team,

    I’d like to propose a single feature that would improve Proton Drive:

    Idea: Add free‑form tags (Topics or controlled vocabularies such as AAT) that can be attached to any file or folder. Photos included.

    Why it matters:

    • Most users and certainly the professionals often have assets spread across many project folders; tags let them locate related items without moving files.
    • Tags act as lightweight metadata, enabling better project tracking and reporting.
    • Proton Mail already uses labels; extending a similar concept to Drive creates a consistent experience across the Proton suite.

    Suggested implementation (high‑level):

    • Store tags as encrypted metadata on the…

  11. I'd like to share a photoalbum.

    I'm a hobby-photographer and i mainly bought proton drive to share pictures.
    The problem is, when uploading pictures as files, i can share them, but i can not view a prewiev on my phone, without having to download them. On the other side, when i upload them as pictures, i can not share them easily with friends. I want to share a link, from which they can view and download the pictures, without having to create an account on proton.

    This is just stupid and should not be that hard.

  12. Backup macOS Photos to photos on drive

    Would be great if the photos and albums in my photos app on my mac are backuped to drive photos. So then iOS phots are backup and macOS photos are backuped (I do not use icloud anymore because I do not trust Apple anymore). In this way I can have all my photos in 1 place.

  13. Make each tab remember and reopen at the last position/scroll location.

    Please add a feature where each sheet/tab remembers and restores my last scroll/view position when I switch back to it, rather than resetting to the beginning every time. This would greatly improve my workflow. Thank you.

  16. Share folders and files with admin rights

    Currently you can only share files with other email addresses as viewer or editor.
    You should be able to share as admin with full rights: sharing, moving, deleting, ...
    This goes for folders as well.

  17. 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.

  18. Add Conditional Sync Pause Feature for Proton Drive

    I use Proton Drive to back up certain files for a game. However, it causes significant performance issues when the game is running due to constant synchronization. Currently, I have to manually pause the syncing, which requires me to remember to manually sync the files later.

    A feature that pauses syncing based on specific conditions would be very helpful. These conditions could include:

    • When a window is in full-screen mode
    • When certain processes are running (like games)

    This feature would benefit not only gamers but also anyone who needs a stable internet connection during critical tasks.

  19. Allow custom domains and branding in file sharing URLs with Proton Drive

    Hi there,

    when I share a folder with a public link, I only get an URL with the following structure:
    https://drive.proton.me/urls/...

    It would be really great if I could use one of my connected custom domains here instead.

    Also, I would love to implement some custom branding on the public-facing page that contains the shared data.
    Right now, there is a "Proton Drive" logo and a link to setup a free account. This could even be connected to the selection of the domain: If I use the "drive.proton.me" URL, the Proton branding could stay intact, and if use "drive.customdomain.com",…
