I do some privacy awareness presentation were i teach people how to gain back their privacy. Beside other apps i also recommend Proton but i cannot fully support it yet because they dont have a good contact solution. Its so extremly needed. @Proton at least give us a heads up if its difficult to implement.

I agree, it's a mystery why an otherwise excellent provider can continue to ignore the need for a good solution to this vital element of their central product.
Before widening the scope of their services in all sorts of directions, they should get their act together on the home front. Diversifying by buying notes and other apps may be ****, but does little for customer satisfaction. Go, Proton! -

Is this still planned? This is by far the most annoying thing about my daily Proton usage.

Just switched from Android to GrapheneOS. This is a great way to DeGoogle and enhance security and privacy on your Android phone.
It would be awesome if we could directly sync Proton Contacts to the phone's contact list. -

Currently evaluating protonmail to move away from Google and go for a paid plan, but from what I can see there's still a few dealbreakers. It's nice that privacy comes first but you need to be able to connect, otherwise it's useless.

Suggestion: just sync names and email addresses.
We don't need everything else matched up... The outfits that claim that they're syncing often either don't understand the idea (they do one-way only) or are just doing a fraction of the job (tags, notes, etc., often don't get synced). It's better to treat each as a master copy and sync only the things that are critical for your app. You only need email address & names (and maybe company and title) lined up to be able to send email.

Trying to finally dump Google and am 90% of the way there, but this is a deal breaker! I am not going go into protonmail app on Android in order to make a phone call. There is no reason to not provide a simple sync back and forth to Android contacts.

In general I don't like the idea of Proton interfacing with other data grabbing entities, but this would be a great feature if it could be done with privacy and security.

I switched from gmail to protonmail. Since I still use google contacts to make phone calls, I would love to see proton mail sync automatically from google contacts so I need only update one of them. Or, better yet, let me set protonmail to use google contacts for email, which would achieve the same result.

This feature request dates from 2017 and is planned since 2019, an Update or delivery date would be highly appreciated, it's 2024!

It is absolutely critical that Contacts integrate with my Android phone somehow - not having this made my move from Google to Proton pretty much useless since my Android phone contacts came from Google and removing that account meant no more contacts in my phone. I did back them up to Proton but what good are they if I cannot use them conveniently?

Proton Contacts is needed! Include call and chat is too much?

This has been a feature request since december 2017. Plannend since january 2019. It is now february 2024. It's insane this basic and much requested feature has not yet been implemented. Sorry for my frustration, but tt really is the biggest disadvantage to Proton Mail. And of course, make it opt-in for those that do not want it, but I'm more than happy to give up a little security for this feature. The fact that Tuta now offers this feature, makes it an attractive alternative.
