Search should find folders in addition to files
When searching proton drive, it doesn't appear to find folders with the search word in the folder name. It would be better if search found folders as well. Its common to have downloads with unmemorable names grouped in a folder with a memorable name. If search doesn't find the folder, it can be very difficult to find the desired files.

Storage analyzer
Google has an option to manage storage, showing the user what is eating most space. Proton Drive needs the same functionality, so that we can manage our storage capacity better.

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.

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…

Support for GNOME/KDE online accounts
Using the GNOME or KDE online accounts applet you should be able to use Proton services like Proton Mail, Proton Drive, Proton Pass etc. by logging in to your Proton account. Nextcloud and Google have support for both, and Microsoft is supported in GNOME enviroments. Posted this in the Drive section since currently only the Drive app and various other early access apps cannot run natively in Linux.

Headers, Footers, and Page Number Fields in Docs
The ability to add headers, footers, and page numbers is important for preparing documents to submit to agents, publishers, contests, etc. or as school assignments. Please include the option to make the header and footer the same across all pages, and another option to make them the same across all pages except the first. The page number field needs to be separate, since each page number will be different. Thanks.

Saving search index
I know files and photos indexing may be technically difficult because everything is encrypted, but at least it should be optional to create and persist and index to not wait every time to reconstitutes it, when it's needed to search for files and photos. This index may be incrementally updated at the next access.
It should also be useful to have an index updated in background, maybe by the mobile or desktop apps.13 votes -
Allow editing of photos
It would be very useful to be able to edit photos, such as cropping, rotating, and adding filters. It doesn't necessarily need to have very advanced features, just the basics.

View videos on mobile
Currently, to view videos stored on proton drive, you have to download them. An option is to allow apps like vlc, the ability to view/stream these videos, instead of having to download them.

Sync Symlinks in Proton Drive on Unix/MacOS
Currently it seems that if a symlink is created in the Local Proton Drive Folder, it is ignored. It would be useful if the symlinks were followed and synced. This would allow to sync files anywhere on the filesystem to Proton Drive by symlinking from the file to the local Proton Drive Folder.
Use cases include syncing files that need to be in a certain locations, like local configurations (bashrc and similar) without having to copy them each time they change.

Arm linux support for proton-bridge
Currently there are no available builds for running proton-bridge on a ARM device with Linux on it. I'd love to see support for it since now i can't have my mail in 1 application but need to use a seperate web interface for only my proton based mail.

Format currency cells according to the currency symbol entered
If I enter "£3.00" in a cell, Proton Sheets will turn it into $3. It changes the currency but also removes the decimal places I entered. This feels kind of broken. I don't see how or why this would be expected or acceptable behaviour.

Select which folder to sync on different devices
I have several computers that I use with Proton, an Office Desktop, a Lab/Workshop Desktop, a Linux machine, a Laptop, etc. I use Proton Drive main for backups with a small set of shared files. I DO want all devices to sync every file, it would be SO much better if I could set up folders that would only be sync'd on specific devices.
For example:
Office (only sync'd on the office computer)
Workshop (only sync'd on the workshop computer)
Laptop (only sync'd on the laptop)
Windows (only sync'd on the Office, Workshop, and Laptop computers)
Linux (only sync'd on…11 votes -
Direct Download Link
When sharing a file, the recipient has to open a web page, find the Download button and hit the button.
I understand that this process is also a free ad for your services but it would be very helpful for some people to share a direct download link: when clicking on the link the file is automatically downloaded.This can be done with other cloud providers and it's really helpful, especially with elderly persons.

Proton Sheets: Re-Order Conditional Formatting Rules
Allow users to re-order conditional formatting rules in Proton Sheets (Eg drag bottom rule up to the second top position.) This matters because rules apply on a hierarchical basis so top rules are applied before the bottom ones.

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.
