Create dedicated photo app
I know that the current plan is to fully integrate the photos feature into the Proton Drive app.
However, I think it would be more logical to have a dedicated app for photos and one for documents in general. With combined apps, I fear that the app either gets overloaded or features will be missing because it would get too crowded otherwise. The photos app also needs wayy better performance than the current app (at least on android, the photos feature is very slow and misses a lot of crucial features, like face detection, editing or a map to show where photos were taken).

I don't need a dedicated photos app, but doing this would fix my biggest problem with PD, which is that I cannot access my photos from my Windows PD client. I'm open to other ways of addressing that, but this would work, as well.

But save the photos in the drive, link it to the photo app and only use the photo app to show/edit/delete the photo file. It makes no sense to me having to places for saving photo files.

I also prefer a dedicated Photos app! It’s far more effective to have apps that do one thing very well than a compromised app that does a bit of everything.

I don't see the need for this. In fact, won't this make moving photos between "photos" and "my files" more clunky (when that feature inevitably arrives".
