View-only link access (prevent download)
Hello,
A drive link version with view-only access is an essential and attainable feature. This is paramount for one-time actions, such as ID verification, where a file must be marked 'verified' by the recipient, but need not be saved.
Yes, the file may be captured as a screenshot, and processed thereafter, but this effort and lower resolution will discourage those who may absentmindedly download the file to keep 'a copy on hand', with no thought to its security.

Improvement in Proton docs and version history
I love how Proton Docs automatically keeps a version history of every change we make to a document. It would be great to give users the option to set the time interval for creating new versions for example, after each edit, after 1 minute, after 2 minutes, and so on.
Currently, when I start a new document, each word I type generates a separate version. This quickly becomes overwhelming, making it hard to scroll back to a useful point in the history. While frequent versioning makes sense during focused editing such as correcting a document someone else sent or making deliberate revisions, it feels unnecessary…

Drag and drop files into sidebar (Web version)
At the moment (in the web version) one can only drag and drop files from the list of files to a folder in the top bar (My files > folder 1 > Folder 1.1, etc), but I need to be able to drag and drop files directly into folders in the left sidebar.
Another thing important for this feature to work well is to be able to expand the left sidebar, so the entire folder names are displayed.
ps. does this feature exist in the desktop app yet? I'm not using the app yet because my mac is too old...

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.

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.

Add a 100 GB Proton Drive plan
Proton Drive Plus currently starts at 200 GB, but I think a 100 GB option would be a useful middle ground for users who need more than the free plan but don't need 200 GB.
A lower-priced 100 GB tier would make upgrading more accessible and give users more flexibility in choosing a plan that fits their storage needs.

Heading Column for Proton Doc
Proton Doc has multiple heading levels.
Should be there a column on left side for the heading outline?Since the comment column is already on the right, then the heading column should be on the left then.

Proton Sheet public link with expiration and password from Proton Sheet directly.
This one is an easy one, and the title speaks by itself.
With a Proton Drive link, when I create a public link, I have the option to set a password and an expiration date. It is possible to share a Proton Sheet from Proton Drive this way, which is OK, but not from Proton Sheet, which would be even better.3 votes -
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! =)6 votes -
All uploads of any kind should by accessible in My files
The way proton drive fractions everything into incompatible storage areas makes no sense. I just need a folder to store my files, synced across all devices. Depending on how I try to add files they go to:
- a photos bucket that isn't in "My files"
- a "My computer" section that seems to also not be in "My files" (and seems to split things out by device)
- ??? if I try to drag and drop them between two file explorer windows on the local machine
- "My files" if I open the web application and drag them in there (abandoning the Proton…

Add a tool for convert documents
I think this is an excellent additional feature, not only for documents and images, but also for audio and video files.

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.

Bug report to Proton Support: A shared Proton Doc with view-only permissions displays a blank page
There's a bug in Proton Docs: sharing a Proton Doc with view-only permissions between Proton IDs (direct email invitation, NOT via public link) shows a blank page to the recipient. The only way to view the document is to open its history. This affects both free and paid Proton accounts equally.
Additional Details:
Browsers tested: Firefox, Vivaldi, Edge, Chrome, Mulvard — same blank page result in all
Accounts tested: Multiple Proton accounts (3+ different sender and recipient accounts) — consistent issue
Reproduction steps: Switching sharing permissions from Editor to Viewer in all instances produces the same result
Mobile (Android): Same…2 votes -
Extend App compatibility to older Operation Systems
It would be great if you extend the Proton Drive compatibility to older systems (like OSX 12 Monterey). I don't think it would need a significant amount of work and would benefit plenty of people (me included).

Webpage Shortcut
I use Windows File Explorer to create webpage shortcuts in my Proton Drive folders, but these don't work when using the Proton Drive app on mobile or the web app. It would be helpful if these would work in the apps and if the apps had a function to create shortcuts on their own.

Proton Docs: Convert Case
I would like a feature to change the case of selected text. For example, change "I have a dog named Bruno" to:
- all caps ("I HAVE A DOG NAMED BRUNO")
- all lower case ("i have a dog named bruno")
- title case ("I Have a Dog Named Bruno")

Proton Docs: use pt instead of px, or offer choice
I just tried Docs für the first time and the first thing that springs to my eye is the font size showing "px" as measurement. Being curious about this I downloaded a test doc as .docs and opened it in Word, which showed the correct size in points (e.g. 16px -> 12pt).
While I am happy that the measurement unit is no mistake and is converted correctly, I still wonder why Proton chose to go with px instead of pt while still offering the same sizes as other text editors, just using px as unit.While the average user might…
