  • Doesn’t work

    It’s missing in the iOS “share to” menu
  • Finally!

    Thank you for finally releasing this on iOS! I’ve been a long-time paid subscriber to proton services. Very happy to have a mobile app.
  • A Great Start

    I know that building a platform like this is no walk in the park. That being said, ProtonDrive is off to a great start. Still needs work. Especially related to uploads. I should be able to upload more than 10 files at a time. Uploads also randomly fail.

    Hi! We're currently working on increasing this limit, and it's definitely something that should arrive in the coming months. Can you try uninstalling and reinstalling the app to see if this will help with the failed uploads you reported? If it doesn't, please consider providing us with more information regarding this behavior through the in-app 'Report a problem' feature.
  • Puts iCloud & Google Drive to Shame

    Upload and Download speed is incredible
    Folder creation is simple
    Moving files to other folders is simple and better than Google Drive iCloud
    The amount of data Google Drive and iCloud are a fraction of what Proton Drive give you
    This app is available for Android and Apple, but you may access your data from any Web Browser of you choice. Chrome Users (hint hint)

    Hands down, the app is fast, solid, simple, and bug free. I’ve been using it since the day it became Beta. Well over 1 year.

    It’s only going to get better. Get in now when it’s $ is super low.

    Having 30+ years IT & Computing experience, this quick access encrypted storage solution is hands down the best I’ve seen in decades.

  • ❤️ YAY ❤️

    Not super robust yet, but I’m happy to have it!!! Already works better than the sync.com app. Keep up the good work, I’m thrilled to have a suite of encrypted apps!!
  • Important App, Deserves Even More Refinement

    Encryption of our data at rest is essential for privacy. Proton Drive has a lot of important potential for the broader security-minded community.

    To add a more seamless UX I would recommend the following:

    - Allow “sharing” of files, photos, and the Notes App directly to Proton Drive. If I could long press and save a file directly from my browser to Proton Drive, that would offer a more seamless experience.

    - Allow uploading all attachments in an email to Proton Drive. This should especially be a feature for ProtonMail.

    - Improve ability to bulk upload iCloud Photos to Proton Drive, or even automatically sync. I understand this is a difficult ask.

    - Refine the capability of creating whitelisted “groups” to view shared folders. You could add two levels of security by both requiring them to access via their Proton account and then also requiring an admin-set email to read/write.

    - Improved “out of Proton” sharing of files and folders. ProtonMail on desktop does this effectively.

    - Bulk imports and exports.

    - Ability to create “rules” for automatic archiving of documents. If I receive X containing <these words> to my ProtonMail email, then save attachment and email to <this file structure>. I have to catalog a lot of travel receipts for work travel, for example. This would help with that.

    Overall, love that Proton Drive is making headway on this important project and I wish the devs continued success down the stretch.

    Hi! Thank you very much for taking the time to provide us with your feedback! We have forwarded it to our Proton Drive team internally, to help prioritize future implementations and improvements to the app. Some of these features are already on our roadmap, as we understand how important they are for our users. Please bear with us and you will find them available in the app next year.
  • Yes! Get it now! Subscribe!

    Can’t wait for desktop version and auto sync features. Everyone pay for a membership you can afford.
  • Decent but lacks some functionality

    Great start to the Proton Drive app! Something that I’d love to see implemented that others have done is the ability to modify text files directly from the app.

    Having the ability to click on a text file, open it in a built-in text editor, modify the contents, then clicking done/save which will upload those changes automatically would extremely useful!

  • Need moar

    Basic functions work, haven’t found any bugs. Hopefully the $100/year I pay helps them develop more features like auto sync.

    Developer Response

    Thank you for your feedback and support! Can you please clarify what type of synchronization functionality you'd like to see implemented in the Proton Drive iOS app? We'd be happy for forward your suggestion to the product team.
  • Photos

    Love having an app, but agree with the other reviews. Need to be able to integrate the camera and gallery for Apple Photos iCloud like functionality. Then I can be free from iCloud entirely and be 100% Proton. Very happy about the application though.

    Developer Response

    Thank you for taking the time to review our app! The option to sync your gallery/photos with Proton Drive is on our roadmap, and we're working to implement this in one of our future updates. Please consider giving us a 5-star review once this feature is implemented.
