  1. 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.

  2. plain text editting

    Proton Docs need the ability to edit simple, plain text files. Ideally, one should be given the option to open text files as text regardless of extension, as long as they are actual plain text files.

    This will give the option to have and be able to edit a bunch of file types that can make proton drive more useful and versatile. For example, one can have a markdown notes folder in proton drive, or even a text-based database, or simply take some simple notes and sync across devices.

    It does not need to have any complex features or even…

  5. Photo deduplication feature

    The Drive does not mind importing photos multiple times, even though being advertised differently.
    Examples:
    - exact same name, created date, but different last modified date => 2 copies.
    - modified photo on iPhone => 2 copies (not 1 photo with two different states)
    - importing the same photo from multiple sources => multiple copies

    This is driving me crazy, as I want to have a single version of a single photo and don't want to waste my time merging etc. The switch to Proton was supposed to be simple.

  6. Proton music

    Just like you have a section for your Proton photos, you should have a section for your Proton music, because most of us have to listen to our downloaded music from YouTube Music, Dizer and Sportifay. To avoid this and to maintain folder optimization, most of us need Proton music.

  7. Tags or labels for files and folders

    I would love to have the ability to better organize my files in Proton Drive by using labels or tags, independently from folders.
    For example, being able to tag a file as both “Project A” and “Budget” would make it much easier to find and group related items across different folders.

    This feature already exists in Proton Mail and works wonderfully for organizing emails by topic or context — it makes daily use much more efficient.
    Having a similar labeling system in Proton Drive would greatly enhance productivity, search, and overall organization, especially for users managing multiple projects or shared…

  8. "Move to trash" option inside the album view

    At the time of writing there is no way to move to the trash photos while previewing them inside an album. This makes deleting photos very annoying because I have to scroll to the date in the timeline where the photo was taken to actually delete it. I'd strongly suggest to enable the "move to trash" function when working with album elements.

  9. While in album: option to delete photo from album OR from drive.

    It's much more convenient to select a photo in an album instead of in your complete photo collection.
    So while selecting a photo in an album give te option to delete from album or delete completely.

  11. Find Content Across Spreadsheet Tabs

    Thank you for creating Spreadsheets! I would love to completely move over from Google Sheets but a couple of things are missing

    Enhance the Find feature
    Give us the option to:
    a) search across all tabs (not just the one active)
    b) search a specific range of text
    c) replace with text
    c1) allow us to either replace just 1 instance or all

  14. Heading (chapter) navigation

    I make documents with lots of chapters, which I use headings for. There should be an outline or heading select to more easily navigate the document.
    Also, when hyperlinking text, I should be able to link to a header in that same doc so I can make my own table of contents (so people reading .pdf can also navigate easily).

    Finally, it'd be nice if we could save our own custom heading styles in some way.

  15. Android files sync

    Now we have photo sync, but on windows we could sync files, it will be cool and so useful, if we could sync our files on Android, like notes and other.

  16. Separate forums for Docs / Sheets / Photos

    I reviewed all 34(!) pages of Proton Drive suggestions, for possibly making a suggestion on core Proton Drive functionality (user groups)... it is too much preparation before making a suggestion.

    I propose to create 3 new forums, for Docs, Sheets and Photos respectively. There is some amount of duplicate suggestions too.

  17. Improve Downloading and uploading speed

    i know that proton drive has robust security and i think that is why probably the download and uploading speed is very slow compared to other solutions like mega. Proton Drive would be top notch with a more robust server speed. i think that 50 MB/s would be very good starting point for example.

  19. Proton Docs: Tables- Adding "Combine / Merge cells" & "Delete cell(s)"

    [Request for Proton Docs: Tables]

    Could you guys consider adding the ability to "combine cells / merge cells" & "delete cell(s)" for Tables in Proton Documents?

    This feature would be extremely helpful for:

    I. Notetaking- creating more customizable & legible tables that can quickly & easily be referenced again in the future.

    II. I ask Lumo a lot of "How-to" questions & found that pasting Lumo's responses directly into Proton Docs works well bc the text copy-pastes over pretty close to its source-formatting.

    To create a Header Row with only one Column Header cell intact (eg, In a 3-column table,…
