An option to lock down Drive access on computer
In addition to Proton Drive, I have a premium pCloud account with their encryption option.
If Proton Drive provides a secured online storage with encrypted transfers and encryption at rest, pCloud Encryption provides in addition a mechanism which allows locking the local vault on the computer for sensitive documents.
Sure the computer session has a password but it would be nice to see such a complimentary option for Drive. I believe pCloud opens up some sort of virtual network drive. I don't know if Proton Drive does the same thing and if the current implementation would enable this.The Proton…

Proton Sheets - Editing Cells with multiple lines
When trying to add multiple lines in the cell edit dialog box, while the bar at the top (fx bar?) has up and down arrows to scroll between lines. This can be a little cumbersome. Please allow for vertical expansion of the edit bar.
Web based spreadsheets Excel and Google Sheets support this. As well as client install Excel and Libre calc all allow this. I would say this is fair justification of the utility of this feature and a request for feature parity.

Typescript SDK that uses OAuth instead of username/password
Google Drive and Dropbox have typescript SDKs that allow me to use them as file storage backends for e.g. an "offline only" app that does not have a backend. Google Drive is messy to use because you have to reauthenticate a lot. Dropbox is really good and has worked great for me for months now. But Proton Drive doesn't have an OAuth SDK so I can't use it because having a privacy-focused offline only app means users who care about privacy will use it, and if they have to enter their proton username and password they will probably not use…

Share file, but don't allow download or screenshot
Changes to the share file in proton drive that allows people to view, but not download a file to retain ownership of data but allow others to verify.
Could be useful when sharing identity documents, contracts etc, but you don't necessarily want others to keep a copy of the data.
Would also be nice to use some form of browser DRM protection to prevent screenshots as well.

Named ranges in Proton Sheets
I use named ranges extensively in any spreadsheet I create. They supercharge things like VLOOKUPs or data validation with a list of possibilities.
Rather than entering a fixed cell reference, I create separate data source or menu option sheets and name the ranges. I then reference those ranges in my lookups or data validation. The data source lists can be modified, sorted, formatted, etc independently of the cells or tables that reference them, and it can be done without having to actually edit the lookup formula or data validation setting.

Link folder from "My Files" into Photos
I have a folder called "Photo Archive" in "My Files" and I would be great to have the possibility to link from Photos to that folder so they are visible.

Allow Renaming Photos in the Photos Section
Please allow users to rename photos directly from the Photos section in Proton Drive. Currently, renaming is only possible from the Files section, which is inconvenient.

Web based Drive Search
Search is not available because the contents need to be indexed or something. Please review this. It's day 5 of me waiting for all my 900 gb to be uploaded and I can't perform a single search. Please contact me for advise on these basic things you are missing. I am regretting switching from Mega already. Please.

Ich verwende ein NAS von QNAP dass ich gerne zum Teil auf Proton Drive sichern bzw synchronisieren möchte. Leider gibt es bis jetzt keine Möglichkeit einen Sicherungsauftrag im QNAP NAS zu erstellen. Daher würde ich um eine Integration von Proton Drive im QNAP HSB wünschen.

It would be great to be able to select photos from Proton Drive and then "Share" them directly via Proton Mail without having to download them first.

Hiding photo albums
Allow for photo albums to be hidden, sorted, and their contents also hidden. I've got a lot of work photos in my proton drive, but I don't care browsing past all of them when I'm looking for pictures of my actual life. If I could hide them in albums, but still on hand, that would be great.

Proton Docs need a search feature on mobile
The mobile Proton Docs experience needs a search feature. Otherwise using long documents on the mobile is very painful.

Proton sheets - in cell formatting
Would be great if it would be possible to apply different formatting to words in cells. For example, a cell currently is either bold or not-bold. There's not way to accentuate a few words in the cell by making those bold while leaving the rest not-bold. I assume the same applies to other formatting options.

Revamp Docs's download feature
When I try to export my document every single download item is lacking expected quality. I wanted to create a simple user manual for a small app with screenshots, but I can not seem to make a proper usable export from it.
.docx have broken images and bad formatting
.html have bad formatting as well
.md is just an .md file without the images in the document, it should be a zip with image folder and [img] tag
plain .txt works but it is pointless in this case
.pdf is just "print to pdf" with browser specific headers that the…

Notifications for Changes to Shared Folder
I would love to have notifications (email preferably) when someone outside my organization accesses a shared folder - either to upload files, change/edit files, or download files. It is useful when i am waiting for a client to upload files and I don't have to keep checking the folder.

non‑E2EE Linux client for Proton Drive
Your blog says a Linux client is in progress, but Proton Drive cannot be taken seriously as a core product until it exists. Linux is a first‑class environment for many of your most technical users, and the absence of a native client is a fundamental gap.
If E2EE is the bottleneck, ship a non‑E2EE Linux client now with explicit warnings. Engineers know how to encrypt locally — Cryptomator, rclone, and similar tools already solve this. pCloud has used this model for years. Delivering a functional client early gives you performance data, crash reports, and real‑world usage patterns instead of waiting…

Photo caption or description
Add ability to add a description or a caption as a separate piece of metadata for a photo. Possibly it could be part of Album metadata. The lack of this feature prevents me from migrating multiple albums from Google Photos.
There are some suggestions to display captions or descriptions from EXIF stored with photos. Doing it that way would change the modified by date etc if a user wanted to change those; also updates would require de-encryption/re-encryption, adding challenges to de-duping and burdening the user flow. On the other hand if my suggestion is implemented, then those who wanted EXIF…

Starred Files and Folders
It would be fantastic to tag files and folders as starred and to navigate to those files and folders with a single button click from the home screen.
