Add more right-click (context menu) functionality please!
Dropbox has a robust Right-click feature set in Windows Explorer. Proton needs the following:

- Copy Proton Drive link
- Sharing options of different sorts
- View on Proton Drive Website
- Make online-only
- Make available offline
Among others!

Multi-Select for make available offline
Currently the option to set photos available offline can only be done one at a time. Please make it so that you can multi-select or select all photos and make them available offline all at once.

Quick navigation to main page on mobile app
If you are inside a directory and click on “Files” in the navigation bar on the left bottom corner, it should take you back to the main Files page. Currently, nothing happens when you tap on it.

Backup
I just think, today we have more devices, mobile, tables, computer, notebook. And when enabled backup options on all of this devices all connected has been storage inside one Photos. When you won’t to check, or review you need long time. My suggestion is to have option to credited folder like Mobile inside Files, and inside application settings to have options to set directories where to storage files for that device.

Photos
I'd like the Photos tab in the app to work like OneDrive's, with every photo in the cloud appearing in that tab without having to do anything, not just the ones uploaded directly as they are now.
I'd also like the automatically uploaded image files to be in a folder in the cloud where I could locate them and move them to the folder I want to organize them in, but with them still appearing in the Photos tab even if I move them, and on all devices.

Theme Based Search (Proton drive photos)
I propose adding a theme-based search in Proton Drive, similar to Google Photos, while fully respecting privacy. The idea would be to use a local AI on the device to analyze images and generate encrypted tags or indexes, used only for searching. This way, the images would never leave the device or Proton servers.
I’m not sure if this is technically feasible at scale, but with optimized LLMs and AI recognition models, it might be possible to find a balance between privacy and intelligent search, giving users a richer experience without compromising their personal data.

Show Shared Folders in Mac OS Finder
Please add the shared folders to the Mac OS Finder/Proton Drive integration. When collaborating on documents, it's too tedious to have to user the native Proton Drive app and download files to work on them. We should be able to click on a shared folder/file in Proton Drive on Mac Finder like any other file and have it open in the default app.

Make cloud archiving optional
I have files that I rarely access but are critical when I do access them (e.g. manuals) and the times I need to access them are likely to coincide with my having no internet access as I sail. It would therefore be great to be able to flag folders so that a local copy is maintained even when the contents have not been accessed for a while.

Allow adding photos from Proton Drive to Albums in the web interface
Currently, there's no way to add photos that are already stored in Proton Drive to Photos when using the web interface. The only options are:
- Use the iOS or Android app
- Upload directly from your computer to Photos
Requested feature: Add the ability to browse Proton Drive and select existing photos/videos to add to an album, directly from the web interface.
Bonus: Ideally, this should work by reference rather than creating a duplicate. Adding a photo from Drive to an album shouldn't consume twice the storage quota.
Use case:Users who have already uploaded and organized photos in Proton Drive…

Docs image resize details
Although it is easy to re-size an image in Proton Docs, I'd like to be able to AT LEAST see the pixel or inch count (height, width) of the image.

Autocorrections in docs
I hate autocorrect. But I do love the possibility to make my own adjustments on what automatic changes my documents make. For example, I want my docs to auto change a - between two words to a –

I just want to say THANK YOU. Google started giving me AI overviews of my drive docs without me asking it to. :(
Just wanted to express my gratitude here for actually giving a **** about my privacy. I have post-op photos I don't really want AI trained on! I don't want to feed my digital life into an advertising machine! So THANK you for being here and I'm happy to give you money for control over my digital existence.

Be able to read EML files within proton drive
Not sure if this is be asked for but when I save EML files to my drive either my files or shared folder on my pc I can read them when I try to open like a pdf. This would be very time saving. Currently on android you have to download onto your phone then either upload online to a converter like apose which I'm against due to privacy issue or one of very few apps (only 2 I can find) are available so you have to install this to the read which again not keen due to privacy. Yes…

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…

Preserve albums from device
I backup my photos from my phone onto Proton Drive. However, the albums that the photos are in on my phone are not preserved on Proton Drive. Instead, they are just dumped into one place. This, unfortunately, makes the photos pretty much unusable, because they are a nightmare to look through all mixed up.
I already have placed my photos into sensible albums on my phone. I should not have to redo that on Proton Drive. Without this feature, I have to use another service for photo backups.

Email-2-drive for automatic attachment file storing
It would be very (!) handy to use a email address as a file collector for Drive. So "all white listed senders are allowed to send messages with attachments to a unique email address (linked to Drive) and Drive automatically saves the attachment to a specific folder.
Even better: Lumo intellegence applied to give the file a content based file name such as "yyyymmdd Tax application 2026 Company".
That email address can be also used by a scanner for an fast document process from hard copy letter to pdf file in Drive. Also SaaS as Atlassian Jira use these email-2-issue…

Bring Back Upload Rate
Proton Drive changed the UI/UX of file uploads. This change removed the MB/s indicator on the right of the file name in the upload menu on the bottom right of the page. This post requests the Proton Drive Team to re-add the indicator for the upload rate for the files.
Currently, only the total MB uploaded / total MB to be uploaded is shown for each file.6 votes -

pure Video Links without Download option
I'd like to share my videos without making them downloadable. The download button should be optional.
When the shared link is clicked, the video should start playing directly in full screen.
Inexperienced users, and especially older users, won't realize they need to tap the (gray) button.
It should be as simple as possible.
