1. Open links within PDF preview in new tab

   Currently, hyperlinks within PDFs open in the same tab. It would be great if they could open in a new tab by default (although ctrl/cmd + click can be used to open in new tab).

2. Make it possible to have files that exist *only* on Proton Drive in the cloud and that are *not* synced to non-cloud devices

   Currently, files on Proton Drive are synced with those on a computer or mobile device. If deleted from the device, they also disappear from Proton Drive. It would be beneficial to have files stored only on Proton Drive. This could be achieved in one or both of two ways: 1) allow manual creation of cloud folders on Proton Drive that do not sync with connected devices, enabling manual addition of files and subfolders; or 2) enable users to turn off syncing for files or folders uploaded via syncing, thus disconnecting them from their original local files, allowing local deletions without affecting the cloud versions.

5. Photo Sync - Customizable time table

   Currently, Proton Drive (Photos) allows users to back up their photos, including over mobile data, and specifically select where they are uploaded from. But, daily, many users take pictures or screenshots to send to friends and family only to delete them minutes later. Or, take multiple pictures of a single event just to pick out what they like the most and delete the rest. If users don't go into their photo backup regularly, it can be swamped with tons of pictures that users need to parse through and get rid of.

   Would it be possible to allow users to select a timetable/schedule to upload their pictures and reduce clutter and constant maintenance?

   Example:

   Settings menu > Photo backup > Enable photo backup.
   A grayed-out dropdown menu underneath is enabled with the following options:
   - Automatic (default)
   - Every 1 hour
   - Every 24 hours
   - Every 7 days
   - Every 30 days

6. OneNote

   I suggest a function to migrate from OneNote to Proton Drive. To fully migrate from Microsoft 365 to Proton you need not only a migration tool for Onedrive or Excel/Word but also a facility for easily migration for OneNote

9. Add speech to text functionality to Proton Docs.

   Having the ability to speak to the Proton Docs application and have it turn the speech into text would make it much easier to compose long-form written material, especially if it is sensitive by nature. I do not trust other programs to keep such things safe and private.

10. In proton PC app, show ALL the remaining files to sync, not only currently synced. Also for Proton drive mobile.

    In proton PC app, show ALL the remaining files to sync, when selecting folders for sync. Not only currently synced. You can also show the percentage of the sync in general and the time required (estimate) to sync all. The same I believe could be done for pictures in PC and mobile app pictures backup.

11. Fix the Disk Usage in Proton Drive

    The usage estimate in the web application of proton drive is still buggy. It shows much higher than what I have in my drive. I saw a reddit post about this that was posted 3 years ago, I don't know if it is already fixed and is an issue with my side of the application.

12. Option to Clear Saved Username on Logout for Desktop app

    Could you please add an option in the Proton Drive desktop app to clear the saved username/email on sign-out (for example, a Settings toggle "Clear saved username on logout" or a "Sign out and clear username" action). On shared or public computers the current behaviour of retaining the last-used email can lead to accidental or inappropriate sign-ins; this feature would improve privacy and reduce user confusion by requiring the next user to enter both username and password.

13. Option/simple setting for all files to be online only

    I would like to be able to set my Proton Drive on my Mac to have all files accessible online only. I constantly find that files have downloaded to my Mac, reducing my disk space, even when I have not opened up the file in the Proton Drive.
    I have tried to correct this numerous times by going through every file and setting them individually to online only, but this setting does not "stick". It would also be good to be able to set directories online only on a case-by-case basis.

14. A thought on spreadsheet architecture (from a grateful user)

    Hi Proton Team,
    First off, I want to say that what you've built with Proton Docs is genuinely impressive. End-to-end encrypted spreadsheets that actually work is no small feat, and I really appreciate the engineering that went into making this happen.
    I've been using your spreadsheet app and thinking a lot about architecture lately. What you've accomplished is amazing—truly. But I also believe that trying to build the same thing in different ways can teach you a lot, even if you never ship it. I wish I could rewrite all my own apps in every language and framework just to see what I'd learn. But if I had to choose just one thing to rewrite, one experiment that felt like it might reveal something fundamental... I'd rewrite a spreadsheet app in SolidJS.
    I know how this sounds. It feels a bit like suggesting someone reconsider their religion, and I've been hesitant to even bring it up. And look—I could be completely wrong about this. I don't know your codebase. I don't know what you've already tried or what constraints you're working under. I'm looking at this from the outside, and I'm sure there are a hundred things I'm not seeing.
    But here's the thing that keeps nagging at me, and I could be completely wrong about this—I don't know all the facts of your architecture or the constraints you're working under—but: spreadsheet cells are literally signals.
    I mean this in the most fundamental, computer science sense. A cell holds a value. When that value changes, dependent cells recalculate. That's it. That's a signal. And React... React doesn't really think in signals. It thinks in snapshots and reconciliation.
    Right now, when I edit a cell in your spreadsheet, React has to:

    Re-run component functions
    Build a new virtual DOM tree
    Diff it against the old tree
    Figure out what changed
    Update the DOM

    Or at least, that's how I understand it works. I could be missing optimizations you've implemented that I can't see from the outside. But in principle, a spreadsheet cell doesn't need a diff. It knows exactly what changed—its value. And it knows exactly who needs to know—the cells that reference it.
    This is where signal-based reactivity (like what SolidJS uses) becomes almost eerily perfect for spreadsheets. Not because SolidJS is "better" (I know how loaded that word is), but because the mental model matches the problem domain exactly:
    A1 = 5 // This is a signal
    A2 = A1 * 2 // This is a computed signal
    When A1 changes, only A2 updates. No diffing. No reconciliation. No re-rendering parent components. Just: "A1 changed, tell A2." That's it.
    I realize I'm oversimplifying massively, and maybe I'm missing something fundamental about why this wouldn't work in practice. I know you've got virtualization, you've got workers handling crypto, you've got complex state management for collaboration, and you've got a whole ecosystem built on React. There are probably architectural decisions I'm completely unaware of that make this harder—or maybe even impossible—than I'm imagining.
    But I also can't shake this feeling that you're fighting React's fundamental architecture every time a cell updates. You've done an amazing job making it work (seriously, the fact that it works as well as it does is a testament to your engineering), but it's like... you've built a beautiful house with the wrong foundation for the soil type, you know?
    Or maybe I'm completely off base. Maybe React is actually perfect for this and I'm just not seeing it.
    Here's what I'm actually suggesting (and please feel free to ignore this):
    Maybe it's worth experimenting with a signal-based approach for just the grid layer? Not a full rewrite. Not even for production. Just... to see. To learn what happens when the mental model aligns so perfectly with the problem. It could be SolidJS, or Preact Signals, or even a custom implementation. The framework doesn't matter as much as the fundamental reactivity model.
    Because I genuinely believe you'd learn something valuable, even if you never ship it. Sometimes the act of building the same thing differently reveals insights about the original that you couldn't see any other way.
    And if the theory holds—if signals really could be 5-10x faster for spreadsheet operations (which the benchmarks suggest, though I know benchmarks lie), and if they use significantly less memory—then for something like Proton Docs, which people use for work, where performance and reliability matter, those insights might be worth exploring. Even if it just confirms that React was the right choice all along.
    I know this is a big ask, even as an experiment. I know you have a roadmap. I know React works and has a huge ecosystem and hiring is easier and a million other practical reasons to stick with what you have. And I'm not saying you're wrong for using React—it was probably the right choice when you started.
    But if I could rewrite just one of my apps to learn something fundamental about architecture, it would be this. A spreadsheet in signals. Because it just... fits.
    I'm just saying... spreadsheet cells are signals. And sometimes when something just makes sense at that fundamental level, it's worth exploring. Even just as an experiment.
    Or maybe it's not worth it. Maybe you've already run these numbers and they don't add up. Maybe there's something about signals that breaks with encryption, or collaboration, or some other piece I can't see from here. I genuinely don't know.
    Again, I love what you've built. I'm rooting for you. And if you've already considered this and decided against it—or if I'm just fundamentally misunderstanding the problem—I completely understand.
    Thanks for listening to my rambling.

17. Integrate folder sharing with Proton Contacts on mobile

    Current Behavior: When sharing folders or albums in Proton Drive with family members, I must manually type each email address. There's no integration with Proton Contacts, making the sharing process time-consuming and prone to errors.

    Would be great to have more seamless integration between Proton Contacts and Proton Drive that would:

    • Allow users to select contacts directly from their address book when sharing
    • Support autocomplete functionality as users begin typing names

    Even more, if Contacts would support contact groups, sharing to family members as a single group.

18. Add "open preview in new tab" option for files in Drive.

    Currently, when I'm viewing files in a folder (using my browser), let's say pdfs, double-clicking one will open the file preview in that tab. Occasionally, I might want to open multiple files and view them side by side (or in adjacent tabs), but there's no way to open any individual file "in a new tab", which means I have to open a new blank tab, go to Proton Drive, navigate my way through my folders to the file I want, and open the preview for the next file. And I have to do that for each and every file I want to view. This is inconvenient and simply infeasible if there are several files I want to view. Please allow us to "open file in new tab" (or "view preview in new tab") so I can keep one tab my folder tab! Thank you.

20. Connection to annotation apps on iPad

    I need Proton Drive to sync with an annotation app on my iPad - really any app that applies, e.g. iAnnotate or Notability.

    As of now, I can annotate documents and the changes are saved directly to my OneDrive. I really need this feature in Proton Drive too.
    Please take it into consideration - without this feature, Proton Drive isn‘t of any use to me.
