Auto‑create albums in Proton Drive Android backup
When the Android Gallery backs up photos to Proton Drive, the app currently uploads all images into a flat folder structure. It would be very helpful to have an option that automatically creates albums in Proton Drive that mirror the albums (folders) already defined in the device’s Gallery.
• Detect each existing Gallery album at backup time.
• Create a matching album (folder) in Proton Drive.
• Place the corresponding photos inside that album, preserving the original organization.This would make it easier for users to locate and share grouped photos without having to manually recreate the album hierarchy after the backup.

Automatic file backup on Android (for documents/files)
Photos already auto-backup, but documents and other files still need to be uploaded manually. Please add automatic file backup for Android — let users select folders to sync in the background.
This matters. If someone loses their phone, gets robbed, or the device breaks, those files are gone. Manual upload means people forget or delay, and by the time something happens, it's too late.
Would really help make Proton Drive a true Google Drive replacement.

Pause Photo Backup Proton Drive
Pause Photo Backup
Proton Drive Android
Sometimes instant backup is inconvenient because:
I want to delete some photos and videos in a moment (deleting them on my phone and then on the cloud is imprecise and time-consuming)
I want to save battery power when I don't have anywhere to charge my phone right away.10 votes -
Sync directories android/linux/windows/drive and allow backup apps like Whastapp, Signal, Threema
This could be achieved by syncing a directory in android with proton drive.
Syncing a folder is essential. For instance I could sync some documents, books, keepass databases and other files to have a shared directory between my computer and my phone and having all those files also OFFLINE for instance when traveling.
An option to backup public storage data from apps such as: Whatsapp, Signal, Threema, etc is also essential to stop using Google Services (dgrive) to backup those apps. I think the private storage backup is not possible.

Incremental backup
It would be good if the photo backup could be set to only backup new photos rather than all photos every time. Backing up 7800+ photos every time takes forever

Prevent repeated photos/videos in backups of Android
Each time a folder is activated for backup in android, all the images are uploaded without checking if them are already uploaded. A hash comparison would resolve this issue and prevent photos or videos' duplication

Add a setting to set additional paths for automatic photo backup
Currently, the automatic photo backup feature on Android only looks for photos in the Camera and Screenshots folders. I'd like for there to be a setting to add additional folder paths that will be backed up, so that for example photos in my downloads folder will get backed up.

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.

Upload photos manually without backup
It is no longer possible to manually upload photos via the mobile app. This can be done via the website and also with older versions of the app. Now, to upload photos, you must activate your phone's backup feature.

Limit date range on photos backup
Currently the photos backup feature for proton drive appears to be "all or nothing", uploading all photos on a device at once. It would be very convenient to be able to set a date range for backup (or really, set any parameters controlling which photos get backed up).

Backup on schedule
Would be great to have an option to backup on schedule. Problem I have now is if a program does a lot of real time changes in a folder, then Proton Drive will go rampant with trying to save these changes to the cloud and often bug out because the files are in use etc.

Backup macOS Photos to photos on drive
Would be great if the photos and albums in my photos app on my mac are backuped to drive photos. So then iOS phots are backup and macOS photos are backuped (I do not use icloud anymore because I do not trust Apple anymore). In this way I can have all my photos in 1 place.

In addition to iOS photo backup, also iCloud files backup from iOS device or MAC device
Love the iOS photo backup on my iOS device! But It would be absolutely fantastic if iOS iCloud files backup were also available in Drive.
Thank you

Add support for "EaseUS ToDo Backup" tool CLOUD Backup feature
I use EaseUS ToDo Backup tool to perform a number of backups daily to my local NAS drive. With a recent drive failure, I decided to bump up my Proton plan and now have 3TB (combined) storage. I attempted to create new scheduled Backups to Proton's cloud DRIVE - assuming EaseUS supported it, but they don't YET.
I send the enhancement request to EaseUS and figured submitting it to Proton would increase the chances of this being accomplished.3 votes -

See backup status of uploaded documents
I think it would be nice to see the upload status/percentage for each file as it’s being uploaded. This is especially helpful when adding a folder as a backup in the “My Computer” tab or when uploading large swaths of files.

Android files sync
Now we have photo sync, but on windows we could sync files, it will be cool and so useful, if we could sync our files on Android, like notes and other.
