Standalone Proton Drive Finder Window
On macos Proton drive doesn't currently allow Finder folder shortcuts due to the way it manages sessions. If Proton Drive had it's own Finder or File Explorer window, we could have shortcuts to proton drive folders - everyone wants that.
A full standalone Proton drive file browser window that works just like the standard OS browser window. This way we can have proton drive folder shortcuts. It would work with the current session management and it might bring parity across devices too.

Give an option to avoid Proton SSO
Using one username+password to access all Proton services opens that entire Proton account to one keylogged login attempt breaching everything.
If I want to log into ProtonVPN somewhere, that does not mean I trust that computer with access to my email, calendar, drive, and so on.
Logging into ProtonVPN, even if keylogged, should only ever allow the attacker to log into ProtonVPN.
This is an all eggs in one basket situation.
Let people use personal access tokens instead of Proton SSO, created for and bound to one particular service.

Sync file deletion between local and cloud storage
In the proton drive app, you choose folders to sync to the cloud. But when you delete a file from Proton Drive, its local copy is not deleted from your computer. However, when delete a local file, its cloud copy is automatically deleted.
This can cause problems, for example if you rename or otherwise edit a local file that is in a synced folder but whose cloud copy you have deleted, it's going to create a new cloud copy of it.
My suggestion: Adding two new toggles in the settings. One that would make it so that when you delete…

Proton Sheets - Automatic Import of Comments
Hi, I really love that Proton Sheets now exists, but I've been using the Comment function in Microsoft Excel a lot, and am desperately missing an automatic import function of all my comments in Excel. Can this feature be added, please?
The comments that I have created in Excel are far too many for inserting them manually, and I would really love to be able to seamlessly continue working with them in Proton Sheets! =)5 votes -
Powerpoint editing and preview
I have transferred across to Proton because of the privacy features. I'm struggling with the lack of preview for Powerpoint files. I use them all the time for work. My last drive provider had the ability to edit these files online. Please add this feature as a matter of urgency

Allow renaming files within MS Word
Something changed in the background and I'm no longer able to rename a file from inside MS Word for files that are stored locally (or online) on my Proton Drive. There is something wrong with permission structures between Microsoft and Proton Drive.

Proton Drive’s session management - Persistent login session
Hi Proton Team and Community,
I would like to raise a security-related suggestion regarding Proton Drive’s session management.
Currently, Proton Drive maintains a persistent login session, which is convenient from a usability standpoint. However, in certain scenarios, especially when dealing with sensitive or confidential documents, this behavior can pose a security risk.
Unlike tools such as Cryptomator, which require authentication (e.g., PIN or password) every time the application is accessed, Proton Drive does not currently offer an option for an additional local authentication layer or automatic lock on device access.
You guys already do this with proton pass.
Suggestion:

Ensure I can select and upload multiple files and folders at once, without having to upload files one by one (mobile)
Currently the mobile app on IpadOS and Android doesn’t support the upload and of an entire folder of files or photos. It also doesn’t support an easy way to multi-select files via a swipe, like the Os prescribes.
Use case: When I export photos from Lightroom I want to upload them in bulk. Currently, on the web, I can use the OS-Level multi-select behavior to launch an upload of an entire folder. On the apps this is not possible, especially on IpadOS this functionality is very rudimentary. Without this feature, the apps are useless for me.

Download Folders or Files locally via the Proton Drive IOS App
The ability to download folders on the Proton Drive IOS app to local storage not just available offline in the Proton Drive IOS app.. Currently I have to share the folder I want and then visit the web link and then download the folder. This really gets rid of the need for the IOS app

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.

Tables on iOS are excessively narrow
Tables that look fine on other devices are shrunk to an excessively small width on iOS devices in the Proton Drive app as well as in the Browser (tested with Safari and Firefox). In a two-column table, the width is so small that line breaks are added even for short words.

I need a way to stop keep getting a Sync Issue Alert for a Lock FIle that is being used by Another App.
Since others have asked for an "Ignore Files" feature and they still haven't gotten it, I need some way to get Proton Drive to stop nagging me with ALERTS about files that WILL NOT SYNC because they are locked (or for any other reason.)
How about a way to DISMISS an ALERT? How about PERMANENTLY for a given file?
Otherwise other, more vital alerts and/or other notifications might get lost amongst all the noise.

Double-click to open a shared Proton Doc
Opening a shared Proton Doc – In the web UI (https://drive.proton.me), locate the shared document, double‑click the title or the blue Doc icon (or select the file and press Enter/right‑click → “Open in Docs”). This opens the file directly in the Proton Docs viewer. The three‑dot menu only offers download, details, copy, or remove; it does not contain the “open” command. Adding this step‑by‑step tip will help free‑account users who see only the three‑dot menu and prevent confusion.

Private Secure Podcast Hosting by Proton using FOSS Castopod
I realize that someone could self-host their podcast (using free hosting software from Castopod) and distribute their podcast that way, but most Netizens are not going to go that route. I propose a podcast hosting solution that is based in a more privacy-friendly country like Switzerland.
If Proton hosted Castopod software on their servers, that would create a private, podcast hosting option that could also be spun-up quite easily. Proton could also limit its support to the most basic set-up issues, with users accepting terms upfront that only initial configuration support will be provided by Proton while also clarifying that…

Show upload/download status in tray icon tooltip and left click option
When hovering over the tray icon, it would be really useful to show status information like whether something is uploading or downloading, current speed, how much is completed, and how much is left.
There’s a lot of useful info that could live there instead of the tray icon being mostly passive. This would make background activity much more transparent and actually justify having the tray icon at all.
It would be great if the tray icon had a meaningful left-click action.
For example, in OneDrive, left-click opens a small window showing recent uploads and current sync activity. In Proton apps,…

Add Files via Email
Previously, I was using SecureSafe, which had a useful feature: it allowed us to add a file to our drive simply by sending an email.

See favorite photos in an album
It would be incredibly useful if I could, within an album view, filter to just the photos I've liked/favorited. I take a lot of duplicate photos, so it's hard to tell at a glance which ones are the "good" photos for a particular trip.
