Features
Automatic backup that can be enabled to sync to the secure cloud at regular intervals
End-to-end encryption of biometric data, geographic information, and other important metadata
Save images in their original resolution
Select any file, video, or photo to easily view them offline
Generate an encrypted file-sharing link with or without password protection for any photo or video, to share with anyone
Let us know what you think! You can also share, vote, and discuss feature requests on User Voice. Thank you, as always, for your feedback and support.
Assuming it’s the same as on Android then it’s pretty good but there’s quite a big caveat: it backs up every image as soon as you take/receive it, so you have to delete extras both on your device and on proton drive (sadly it’s not a sync like google photos)
I turned the feature on recently and … where are the photos stored on Drive? I can’t find them on my PC. I am trying hard to transition over the Drive from Dropbox and Sync.com but it’s confusing in unexpected ways

Thanks for the heads up
This is awesome! Thanks for the new feature. Hopefully, this is one more step away from apple in my life. I’ll be testing it out shortly
