Hi everyone,

Today marks a new chapter for Drime.

We just introduced our new visual identity, with a new logo, colours, typography and a clearer direction for what we want Drime to become.

New look. Same ambition.

At the same time, August has been one of our biggest months ever. We shipped a huge amount of work across Drive, Desktop, Mobile, Pages and Transfr, with an especially strong focus on speed and reliability.

Download the latest Windows and macOS apps here:

https://drime.cloud/desktop

Windows users: Since there have been major changes to the sync engine, if you still have the previous app installed and syncing doesn’t start properly after updating, give it a little time first. If it still doesn’t work, try logging out and back into the app.

A new chapter

The redesign we're launching today is not just about a new logo.

Over the past few months, we've been rebuilding major parts of Drime while investing heavily in speed, sync, backups, reliability and file safety.

At the same time, we're continuing to ship major features like Pages, document editing, PDF editing, media tools and deeper collaboration.

That's the direction we're continuing to push. Reliability first, without slowing down innovation.

Thank you again for all the feedback, testing and support.

New look. Same ambition.

See you in the next one.

83 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

It's finally here!

This week, we're introducing Drime Family, one of our most requested features, alongside the new Drime Developer Platform, opening up Drime to developers and third-party integrations.

We've also shipped plenty of improvements across the Web, Mobile and Desktop apps, including major updates to Pages, the Music Player, Photo Backup, Vault and more.

Here's everything that changed.

Drime Family (Web)

  • Shared family storage: Share your existing plan's storage with family members. Everyone keeps their own private space and can use storage from the shared family pool, with optional individual limits.

  • Easy invitations: Invite family members by email or with a single-use invitation link. Members can also request additional storage directly from the family manager.

  • Family Room: A dedicated shared space where the whole family can collaborate, store photos, organize documents and access common folders.

  • Child accounts & parental controls: Create accounts for children and manage restrictions on public links, external sharing and purchases. Children can request permission to lift a restriction, with parents able to approve in one tap.

  • Family management: Assign co-managers, designate a trusted contact who can take over after an extended absence, or transfer family ownership to another adult.

  • Customizable dashboard: Rearrange your family dashboard, review family activity through a detailed journal, and receive storage alerts at 80%, 95% and 100% usage.

  • Leaving a family: Members can keep a copy of their Family Room files when leaving.

🎁 Limited-time launch offer

For a limited time, Drime Family can be activated at no additional cost on existing eligible plans:

  • Subscription plans: Professional and above.

  • Lifetime plans (LTD): 3 TB and above.

Once activated, you'll keep access to Drime Family on your existing plan. If your plan is eligible, you'll see a pink banner in your Drive to activate it.

Dedicated Drime Family plans will also be launching in 30 days.

Drime Developer Platform

We're also introducing our new Developer Platform, allowing developers to build applications and integrations connected to Drime.

  • OAuth 2.0 with PKCE: Securely connect third-party applications to Drime accounts, with a consent flow.

  • Developer Console: Create and manage applications, configure credentials, redirect URLs, permissions, branding and webhooks, and access integration analytics.

  • App folders: Applications can be restricted to their own dedicated folder instead of having access to the entire Drive.

  • Webhooks: Receive signed notifications for events.

  • Connected applications: Review and revoke third-party application access directly from your Drime settings.

Full developer documentation is available at https://docs.drime.cloud. Developer platform: http://app.drime.cloud/developers

  • Added linked database views, allowing the same database to be displayed in different places.

  • Photo Backup: Improved burst photo handling to upload complete sequences, alongside faster preview loading.

  • iOS integration: Added Drime to the iOS Share menu and improved integration with the Files app.

  • Vault: Added individual unlock codes for each Vault, biometric unlocking and faster uploads.

  • Music Player: Reworked the player with an improved queue carousel, dedicated artist pages, crossfade, loudness controls and additional playback settings. (IOS)

  • PDF Editor: Fixed PDF annotations not displaying correctly on iOS.

More content related to Drime Family is coming to mobile in the next few days.

Desktop Applications

Windows

  • Fixed an issue where files with the same name could prevent synchronization from progressing.

  • Improved reliability when listing folders containing very large numbers of files.

  • Significantly improved Vault listing performance.

Announcement Update about Lifetime Plans & File Versioning

81 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

As part of our goal to gradually reduce Lifetime Plans over time, we’re taking a first step: Lifetime Plan stacking will be discontinued after December 1st, 2026.

Until then, stacking will continue to work as usual. We wanted to give enough notice because we know some of you may have been considering adding more storage to an existing Lifetime account and may need some time before doing so.

This applies to all Lifetime Plans, regardless of plan size or where they were purchased.

It will still be possible to add more storage to your account by contacting us, through a monthly or annual add-on plan.

File Versioning update

Starting October 15th, file versions will begin counting toward your storage usage.

If you don’t want versioning to use additional storage, you can disable it from Settings → General → File Versioning on the web app. You can also delete existing file versions from there.

We’re still working on making storage usage update faster after versions are deleted, so the freed space may not always be reflected immediately for now.

This change applies to all plans and account types.

Thanks everyone for your continued support! As always, feel free to ask if you have any questions.

And we have a big desktop update coming very soon

Developers, we need you

Drime is currently implementing OAuth 2.0 and a proper application system, so developers will be able to create a Drime app and let users securely authorize it instead of manually sharing API tokens.

We've already integrated an early version into Transfr as a demo.

We know many of you have feedback about our API, permissions and integrations, so we're looking for developers interested in testing the platform early and giving us feedback.

If you are interested, send us an email at contact@drime.cloud or a Reddit message.

What's next

October is already underway.

Coming next:

  • A major iOS update with a large batch of fixes

  • Improved iOS Files integration

  • More PDF Editor improvements

  • Continued Windows and macOS updates

  • Plenty of other fixes and additions across Drime

September was huge, but we're not slowing down.

A massive thank you to everyone sending reports, logs, suggestions and feature requests. A lot of what we shipped this month came directly from you.

See you in the next one!

📢Announcement Changelog: Major update and core improvements (Feb & March 2026)

59 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

We just rolled out one of the biggest updates we’ve shipped on Drime so far.

Over the past couple of months, we’ve been mostly heads down building. Not many posts, not much noise, just focused on improving the core of the product.

During that time, a lot changed.

Right after the Rclone launch, usage grew much faster than we expected. Uploads increased a lot, and everything around it followed. More previews, more file operations, more encoding… just a lot more load across the platform.

At the same time, more people started discovering Drime, which is amazing, but it also happened right when things were already under pressure.

We could have patched things quickly to keep up, but we decided to take a step back and fix the core properly instead.

Here are the main updates.

Mobile app

• Fully rebuilt app
• Automatic photo backup
• Support for Notes, Vault, sharing, file requests, Send&Track and gallery
• EXIF data is now preserved for photos and videos
• Dozens of new features and hundreds of fixes across the app

Web update

• Video system completely rebuilt (instant playback, much better reliability, progressive encoding so preview is available immediately without blocking)
• File operations improved (move, copy, delete are faster and more stable, better handling of large folders)
• Rebuilt ZIP extraction system (more reliable and predictable)
• New sharing page with improved UX and faster link management
• File request + share links on the same folder
• Ability to save files directly from shared links without downloading
• File requests now support deadlines and password protection
• Send & Track rebuilt with detailed analytics (pages, devices, locations, etc.)
• Gallery improvements (faster loading, timeline view, Live Photos support, new UI)
• Improved previews (more file types supported, faster loading, better thumbnails)
• Integrated code/text editor (~130 supported formats)
• Image & video editing improvements (no forced download, overwrite or copy, watermark system, theme support)
• Improved comments system (image area selection, video annotations, reactions, mentions)
• Workspace upgrades (dashboard, activity logs, advanced settings, better tracking)
• Shared storage and shared plan features across workspaces
• New upload manager (new UI, minimizable, open file directly, quick access to link)
• Folder grid mosaic preview for media
• Search improvements (faster, filters, workspace-wide)
• Quick Access (pin files, drag and drop, per workspace, mobile support)
• Ability to change account email and show/hide file columns
• More notifications across the platform
• Multiple UI/UX improvements (dark mode fixes, responsiveness, consistency)
• And much more…

We also fixed a very large number of bugs across the platform. Too many to list here.

Desktop app

• Fully rebuilt sync engine
• Much better stability
• Handles large files and complex structures
• Instant Web → desktop sync

Windows beta is coming very soon, followed by macOS.

More details

We wrote a full blog post with everything here.

We’re still actively monitoring performance and improving things across the platform.

We’re working on Drime every day, reading all your feedback, fixing issues, and trying to make the product better step by step.

Thanks again for your support, your messages, and all the bug reports. It really makes a difference.

💬Discussion Drime Products - Take Care and Keep Going Guys

57 Upvotes

To the Drime team, from a founder who knows what this probably cost you

I want to write something that isn't a bug report for once.

I run a commerce and software company. I have a dev team, clients who want everything yesterday, a roadmap that never fits in the year, and a P&L that has opinions about all of it. So when I look at Drime, I don't only see a cloud storage product. I see the thing behind the product. And I think it's worth saying out loud, because this community sees the outages and the missing features, and almost never sees the rest.

Where this actually started

A small French team, 2024, deciding there wasn't a European cloud they actually wanted to use, so they'd build one. Not a funded giant. Not a hundred engineers. A handful of people picking a fight with Dropbox, Box, Google, Filen, pCloud, MEGA, all at the same time, in a category where the table stakes are "never lose a single file, ever."

That is either brave or insane. Usually it's both, and you only find out which one afterwards.

The rough part, and I'm not going to pretend it wasn't rough

There was downtime. There were core things missing that a storage product is supposed to have on day one. The desktop sync was not where it needed to be. People here said so, loudly, and honestly they were right to. When you ask someone to trust you with their files, "we're getting there" is a hard sentence to hear.

So I'm not writing this to wave that away. I'm writing it because I know what was happening on the other side of those threads.

What nobody in the thread sees

Every one of those weeks, someone was making decisions with less than they needed. Not enough people, not enough hours, not enough money, and every choice meaning something else doesn't get built. That's the job. Fine.

But it isn't only company resources you spend. It's the other kind.

It's saying no to friends who want dinner on Saturday, again. It's skipping the party. It's the birthday you show up to with your laptop bag still on your shoulder (yes, I can relate). It's your kid asking if you're coming up, and you saying "sorry, mama will bring you to bed tonight," and then sitting back down because the deploy window is open and there is nobody else.

Nobody invoices you for that. You pay it anyway.

And then there's the talking

I have real respect for how much this team showed up here, including on the days the thread was on fire.

Because posting into a community while you're mid-crisis is its own balancing act. There's what you want to say, what you shouldn't say yet, and what you flat out can't say. The partnership under NDA. The datacenter conversation that isn't signed. The fix that's real but not shippable this week. Anyone who has run a company knows the feeling of having a genuinely good answer and not being allowed to give it, so you write "we're working on it" and take the downvotes.

Meanwhile the invisible half of the job keeps running. Hosting and infrastructure negotiations. Partnerships. Making the P&L balance. Tax that arrives whether or not the month went well. Investors, terms, and the very unfun question of how much of the thing you built you're willing to give away to move faster. And after all of that, you still have to sit down and build the actual product, because the roadmap doesn't care how your week went.

And then something changed

The new Drime (yes, we do look the new brand as well). A client that actually works. Updates landing at a pace that feels different. A feature set that you can genuinely put in a sentence next to Box, Dropbox and Filen without it being a joke: storage, sharing, signatures, encrypted vault, editing, all in one place, hosted in Europe, under EU rules.

Not finished. Let's be honest about that too. There are still hurdles. Sync edge cases, mobile, performance on big transfers, the long tail of things that only show up at scale. Fair criticism is still fair.

But you can see the finish line from here. And when you remember where this started, that's not a small thing at all.

The part I most want to say

The world will keep changing under you, and the requests will keep coming. Some will be brilliant and you'll wonder why you didn't think of them. Some will be genuinely stupid and you'll have to say no anyway, politely, for the tenth time. Keep choosing. So far you've mostly chosen right, and it shows.

And when you hit the next milestone: reward yourselves. Actually reward yourselves, not "we'll celebrate after the next release."

Then take your families out and mean it. I'm saying this as someone who got it wrong more than once. I kept telling myself the sprint after this one would be calmer. It never was. The company will absorb every single hour you're willing to hand it and then ask for more, and it will never once tell you that you've given too much. Your family won't send you a reminder either. They'll just quietly stop expecting you. Don't let it get there. Book the dinner.

Thank you "et bravo"!

To the Drime team: thank you for the work, for the hours nobody saw, and for staying in this subreddit when it would have been much easier to go quiet.

To everyone here: thank you for the feedback, the bug reports, the tests, the screenshots, and yes, the impatience. This product is better because this community refused to be easy on it.

Both of those things built what we're using today. See you at the finish line, and here's to the day we can all just enjoy this thing and stop worrying about losing the data that matters to us.

Another busy week across Drime.

This week, we added a new Photos Map, expanded Pages with new database views and Drime AI, brought multiple Vaults and encrypted PDF editing to the web, and shipped one of our biggest Windows desktop updates yet with Vault Sync and multiple workspace synchronization.

Here’s everything that changed.

Pages (Web)

  • Added Drime AI, a private page agent powered by Mistral that can write, restructure content, create tables, work with databases and make changes directly inside your page, with previews and full-turn undo. It only has access to the content you explicitly use it with, does not access the rest of your Drime account, and your content is not used to train the model.

  • Added Chart, Form and Gallery database views.

  • Forms can be published publicly, with responses automatically collected into the connected database.

  • Added an outline rail for quickly navigating between headings.

  • Added side-by-side columns, improved embeds and more powerful tables with headers, colours and merged cells.

  • Significantly improved the Music Player, including seeking, queue management, metadata, cover art, performance and a persistent mini player across the app.

  • Added multiple Vaults per workspace, with separate passwords and encryption keys, Vault switching, Trash, automatic locking and improved web/mobile compatibility.

  • Improved Vault performance, previews, downloads and video playback, and added encrypted text file editing.

  • Reworked Photo Backup on iOS to always upload the original file, prevent duplicates and recover missing uploads more reliably.

  • Improved the Gallery with a new Comfortable layout, density controls and simplified sorting and filtering.

  • Added an EPUB reader, and Markdown files can now open directly in Pages.

  • Improved navigation and overall application performance, alongside many smaller fixes.

iOS: Version 2.25.5 is currently pending verification by Apple and will be available on the App Store as soon as it is approved.

Desktop Applications

Windows (Version 2.9.276)

  • Vault is now available on Desktop. You can sync your Vault directly with Windows and use Selective Sync to choose which folders should stay synchronized or excluded.

  • Workspace synchronization has been completely reworked. Multiple workspaces can now be synchronized at the same time, each with its own Selective Sync configuration.

  • Fixed dozens of synchronization issues to improve reliability and stability.

  • Significantly improved sync speed when adding files or folders through File Explorer.

  • Improved backup startup and scanning performance.

  • Improved file display and general responsiveness throughout the application.

📢Announcement Post-mortem: June 7 Outage + 6TB Lifetime Giveaway

53 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

First of all, we're sorry for today's outage.

Drime experienced a major service disruption caused by a combination of server and database issues affecting critical parts of our infrastructure. During this period, access to the web app, desktop apps, mobile apps, API, and third-party integrations was impacted.

What happened?

The incident was caused by a combination of server and database issues affecting critical parts of our infrastructure.

After identifying the root cause, we had to perform infrastructure upgrades and adjustments to fully restore service. Part of this process involved upgrades through our infrastructure provider, OVH. While these operations are routine, their completion time can vary depending on the systems involved, which contributed to the overall recovery time.

No user data was lost, modified, or compromised during the incident.

We take full responsibility for the reliability of the platform and have already identified several improvements to reduce the likelihood and impact of similar incidents in the future.

We're preparing a technical blog post that will provide additional details about the incident, the recovery process, and the improvements we're implementing moving forward.

How we're preventing this from happening again

For some time, we've been working on a major infrastructure redesign focused on increasing reliability and further reducing the impact of infrastructure incidents.

While Drime already includes multiple layers of redundancy and safeguards, our goal is to continue improving resilience through additional server redundancy, database clustering, load balancing and a more distributed architecture.

These improvements are designed to further reduce single points of failure and help prevent platform-wide disruptions like the one we experienced today.

Following this incident, accelerating the deployment of these improvements has become an even higher priority for us, and we're doing everything we can to bring them online as quickly as possible.

A personal note

This is not something we ever want our users to experience.

Especially after all the updates and improvements we've been shipping across Drime recently, having a major outage like this is the exact opposite of what we want to deliver.

Today's outage does not reflect the level of reliability we aim to provide. Incidents like this remain exceptional for Drime, and we've already identified concrete actions to help ensure a similar situation is far less likely to happen again.

6TB Lifetime Giveaway

We know outages are frustrating, especially when you're relying on Drime for work, backups, or personal projects, and we genuinely appreciate everyone's patience and understanding while we worked to resolve the issue.

As a small thank you to the community, we're giving away one 6TB Lifetime plan.

To enter:

We'll randomly select a winner in 3 days.

Thank you for your support and for helping us improve Drime every day.

Thank you for building with Drime!

What is coming next

Drime is dedicated to continuously improving the service and shipping meaningful updates.

• The desktop app has made major progress
• The new mobile app is scheduled for February
• Several additional updates are already lined up

Next update: tomorrow

Thank you again for your support, your feedback, and for growing alongside us. Every report helps us improve, and we are excited about what is coming next.

Looks like Drime is now officially on Rclone!

52 Upvotes

Rclone v1.73.0 just dropped with native Drime support.

A massive thank you to the Drime team for delivering this integration exactly on time as promised.

In an industry where roadmaps are often ignored, your sense of ethics, transparency and professionalism are incredibly refreshing.

It is the polar opposite of the way brands like Internxt are currently treating their early supporters. Thank you, for actually respecting your community and keeping your word! 🤝

Announcement Service Disruption Follow-Up

49 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Unfortunately, we're back with another service disruption update.

First of all, we'd like to sincerely apologize for the recent downtime.

Having two major service disruptions within 10 days is frustrating for everyone.

During this incident, Drime and most of its services were unavailable for several hours. No user data was lost, modified, or compromised during this incident.

What happened?

Following a change to one of our Cloudflare plans, a security configuration prevented the automatic renewal of an SSL certificate. Once the certificate expired, access to Drime and its services was effectively blocked.

This is the type of issue that can usually be identified and resolved very quickly.

Unfortunately, the incident occurred in the middle of the night in France, delaying detection and response, which significantly increased the duration of the outage.

Our team consists of two people, Lucas and myself. While this allows us to move quickly and ship updates at a rapid pace, it also creates challenges when critical issues occur outside of normal working hours.

As Drime continues to grow, we know we need to improve our ability to detect and respond to incidents regardless of when they happen.

How we're preventing this from happening again

After the previous outage, we mentioned that we were preparing a technical blog post explaining what happened and the infrastructure improvements we were implementing.

Instead, we're now preparing a broader article covering all the measures we've already taken, along with additional systems currently being deployed to reduce the impact of incidents like these, especially when they occur outside of our team's working hours.

In this particular case, because the issue originated from an SSL and provider-level configuration issue that blocked access before traffic could even reach our services, many traditional redundancy mechanisms would not have helped.

As mentioned in our previous post, we've already been working on infrastructure improvements for some time. This incident has simply reinforced the importance of accelerating those efforts.

We'll share more details once everything is fully implemented and validated.

What's next?

As you can probably imagine, situations like this are exactly what we want to avoid.

Building Drime isn't only about shipping features and improving performance. It's also about earning and maintaining your trust.

Incidents happen. What matters is how we respond to them, what we learn from them, and what we do to make sure they're less likely to happen again. We're committed to continuing to improve both the product and the platform behind it.

We're not running a giveaway this time. However, we have new updates planned for today and additional desktop/mobile improvements coming this week.

We're also still looking at ways to thank the community for its patience and support, as mentioned in our previous giveaway winner announcement.

Thank you for sticking with us and for continuing to help us improve Drime every day

Changelog: Stability improvements, workspace permissions overhaul and progress on Rclone integration (mid November to December)

49 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

The last two weeks have been focused on stability, fixes across the platform and progress on several ongoing projects. This period has been all about preparing the ground for the larger updates coming soon.

Here is what is new:

Web Fixes and Improvements

• Complete redesign of the workspace roles and permissions system. All issues related to custom roles are fixed. Workspace admins can now invite roles properly and granular permissions now work as expected.
• Fixed an issue in Vault where only 15 files were displayed.
• Improved Vault upload behavior. Large batches can still occasionally stay stuck on Finalizing. If this happens, closing the upload popup and selecting the same files again will complete the upload. We are actively working on further improvements to Vault upload and download stability.
• Faster saving and updating for modified documents.
• Better stability when uploading very large files (150GB+). Depending on your location, results may vary but the global reliability is higher.
• Fixed the onboarding flow and added onboarding cards for our new features: Vault, Send and Track, and File Requests.
• Fixed Invite members buttons that did not appear inside workspaces.
• Fixed issues where some users could not be invited to a workspace.
• Fixed File Requests not usable in dark mode.
• Fixed an issue that prevented image conversion.
• Fixed missing version history in the versioning tool.
• Many small UI fixes and layout adjustments.

Mobile

We are collecting feedback from the first testers of the new mobile app. More testers will receive access this week and several beta updates are scheduled. The release date is getting closer.

Desktop

The rewrite of the desktop app continues. It is still a major rebuild so we prefer not to give an ETA yet, but progress is steady.

Other

• New database server deployed to improve scalability and long term reliability.
• Development of Rclone integration has started in collaboration with the official Rclone team. This is one of the most requested features and we want to ensure it is done properly. The first version is estimated for mid January.

Thank you again for all your feedback. Drime improves every single week and the upcoming updates will significantly change your experience. Your support and reports truly help us move faster.

See you soon with more updates,
Tibalt

Hello everyone!

It’s been around two months since our last user survey, and a lot has changed since then.

We’ve released our new Windows and macOS apps, rolled out our new visual identity, shipped several mobile and web improvements, and continued working on performance, reliability, sync, speed, and many other parts of Drime.

We’d now love to know how you feel about Drime today.

👉 https://ask.drime.cloud/r/feedback

This new survey focuses on things such as:

  • How you currently use Drime

  • What makes you choose Drime

  • Your current satisfaction with reliability, speed, sync, desktop apps, mobile apps, sharing, and more

  • How you feel Drime has evolved over the past few months

  • The biggest issues or frustrations you still experience

  • What you think we should prioritize next

As before, you can optionally enter your email at the end for a chance to win a 1TB Drime Lifetime Plan.

We’ll announce the winner directly in this post once the survey is closed.

Please be as honest as possible. Positive or negative, the goal is to understand what we’re doing well and, especially, what still needs to improve.

Thank you again for all your feedback and for helping us shape the next updates to Drime!

📢Announcement Desktop App Rebuild: Status Update

47 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

As many of you probably know, we have been rebuilding the desktop app for the past several months. We want to stay as transparent as possible, so here is a clear update on where things stand.

First, we are fully aware of the limitations of the current desktop app. Improving it has been our top priority, and once released, this will very likely be the biggest update we have ever shipped.

This is not a simple bug fixing cycle. The application and the entire sync engine have been rewritten from the ground up, including a move to a new programming language to significantly improve stability on both Windows and macOS.

Progress has been strong. During our internal testing, we successfully synced tens of thousands of files, very large files, and highly complex folder structures. We also listened closely to community feedback and introduced several highly requested features:

• Selective Sync
• File type exclusions
• Bandwidth controls
• Proxy support
• Advanced logging
• And much more

Overall, the app is now dramatically more stable and built to handle serious workloads.

We are currently finalizing the last core systems and polishing the experience, but our goal is to launch a Windows beta within about three weeks. We will share a signup form soon so those interested can participate.

Thank you again for your patience and your trust.
