Is there any option to password protect shared links? I know obviously without the exact URL and secret part no one would be able to find it but the option of after clicking the URL to be greeted with a page asking for a password before the shared folder opening would be good.

Is this already and option or not?

Very interested in that feature as well. THX for the todo hint. Hope it'll come soon ;-)

@mpagels our roadmap shows what features are currently being worked on and what's going to be implemented next.

We have a zero bug policy and do our best to help users when they need support or have other questions. Updating and improving the documentation takes up a large part of our time too.

This comes at a price, as we can't give exact deadlines for new features.

Having said that, funding really has the highest impact. So users can do their part and become a sponsor to get their favorite features as soon as possible :)
