  1. Mount Proton Drive as a Virtual Disk / File System Integration for Windows

    I am a Proton Plus subscriber, and as a paying customer I expect a user experience and level of integration similar to what most competing cloud storage services already provide regarding backup and file synchronization.

    I use Proton Drive not only as a backup tool, but also as a working storage location.
    However, there is currently no option to mount Proton Drive as a standard virtual disk on Windows — for example as drive “P:\” in applications that interact directly with the file system.

    This feature is essential for professional and productivity-focused workflows because it would:

    make the entire Drive…

  2. Add photo's on our computers/ desktop apps

    It would be great if we could view and organize photos on our computers/Windows (and other operating systems), using desktop apps. This would allow us to quickly view, reorganize, and use photos (taken with our phone) on our computers. For example, to create photo albums, presentations, slide show's, add them to mail or photo reports on existing situations, and so on.

  5. Standardise file and folder sorting across apps

    The Proton Drive web app sorts folders in the left-hand file tree lexicographically but sorts files and folders in the right-hand folder content area numerically. Files and folders in the iOS/iPadOS app are sorted lexicographically.

    Let’s assume I have a folder that itself has twenty folders, each named 1 to 20. The web app sorts them as follows in the left-hand folder tree:

    1,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,2,20,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

    However, the web app sorts them as follows in the right-hand folder content area:

    1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20

    This is confusing. The sorting method should be standardised across all areas of all apps. Should that standard be sorting numbers…

  6. app specific password for programatic drive access

    I am using MFA to access Proton services.
    I am testing Proton Drive as a backup solution, using rclone to send nightly deltas of a folder to the drive. This needs MFA, though, so it breaks after a while.
    Could you add app-specific--passwords so that this can be achieved, without using MFA for this, but still keeping MFA for normal access?

    Thank you.

  8. Proposal to Add Version Control System (VCS) Support to Proton Drive

    Dear Proton Drive Development Team,

    I hope this message finds you in good time. First of all, I'd like to thank Proton Drive for the excellent services it offers. Your commitment to security, privacy, and ease of use, in particular, makes your platform indispensable for many users.

    However, I have a suggestion for a feature that could be added to Proton Drive for software developers: Version Control System (VCS) Support.

    Why Would VCS Support Be an Opportunity for Proton Drive?

    Version control has become a fundamental tool in the software development process. It allows teams to efficiently manage their projects,…

  9. Plaintext and source files editing

    It would be great to be able view and edit plaintext or source files.

    • This one feature would allow to work with dozens of file formats in different programming/scripting languages, config files etc.
    • It would allow to create quick txt/md notes, where the full blown rich text editor is not required/desired.
    • It would allow to use Markdown note vaults, like those used by Obsidian.
    • It would allow to use tabular data in CSV format, which might cover some use cases for the (currently missing) spreadsheets feature.

    In the future, it would be also nice to have some syntax highlighting for…

  12. 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.

  14. Make Photos on Drive more like a Photo Viewer over File System

    The photos viewer is nice but it would still be good to view the photos as normal files as part of the file system and makes them syncable to computers.

    This would allow the user to manipulate the photos once they're in Proton Drive and limited to the UI. Once you upload them, it's almost like they're inaccessible to anything but viewing.

    It would also allow the user to organise/rename/edit the photos on their local computer rather than them being "hidden" away and only accessible in the UI. Although there are albums for organisation, folder based organisation would also be…

  15. Navigator / ToC sidebar for Proton Docs

    I heavily use Proton Docs.
    However, when a document gets larger, navigation within the document is a real pain.
    My request: add a sidebar or something similar that is structured by headings and allows quick navigation within a document (similar to Navigator in Word like a ToC).

    Same functionality as https://proton.me/blog/docs-proton-drive, but then also for Excel instead of Word documents.

  17. Uncompress zip files online (in Proton Drive)

    After taking out documents of Google Drive - you get huge ZIP files. I just want to upload them and decompress them inside the Proton Drive - not decompressing offline and then upload them all separate.
