Include time on emails for yesterday in proton mail web
Please consider adding time to the mail list and mail details. Showing 'yesterday' at 09:05 the next morning does not give necessary information to you on when exactly the email was received. Knowing what time the previous day an email arrived is pretty important.
I understand why you may want to save screen real estate on the email list by not showing time (although there's a tonne of space anyway), but when you open an email it should really always show date and time rather than just yesterday.
Thanks.

Smart Watch support (wearOS Apple Watch)
Since users of samsung/apple/other watches is increasing. I believe it is important to start to support Proton Calendar on it. As it saved users time with watches. Specifically the inclusion of a Tile so that we can see our day's agenda.

Add 12-Hour Time Format Option to Booking Page Scheduling Tool
I'd like to request that Proton Calendar add a 12-hour time format option (with AM/PM indicators) specifically for the new booking page scheduling tool.
While Proton Calendar may have a general time format setting, the booking page scheduling tool currently displays times exclusively in 24-hour format. This creates confusion for users in regions where 12-hour time is the standard when they share their availability or book meetings with others.

Separate mail and calendar into different apps
add a separate proton calendar icon to the Proton mail/calendar app, so you can directly open the calendar without opening the mail app.
for example the ms mail and calendar app is one app but it behaves as a mail and a separate calendar app.842 votes -

Flagging email importance
I would like to be able to flag the importance of outgoing emails. Default should be Normal, but it would be nice to be able set the importance/priority to High for some emails, so the recipient knows whether an email has above average importance and could also filter by this flag.
Note that this is different than the Star marking, which can not be applied during email composition and can not be transferred to the recipient.

Proton Scribe should be included in the Proton Unlimited plan
It's not really an "Unlimited" plan if a feature is left out. Why is Scribe included in the Duo and Family plans, but not Unlimited? I don't need a plan for more than one person, and I don't need any more storage space, so having to upgrade to a multi-person plan as an individual is an expensive option just to get this one feature (the only feature lacking on the Unlimited plan).

Privacy-Preserving Notifications/Generic Notification Mode
Recently, reports involving Signal highlighted that operating system notification databases may retain sensitive information from message notifications, even after the original messages are deleted. While this example involved Signal and iOS, the same general risk may apply to other apps and operating systems where notification content is stored or indexed outside the app.
For privacy-focused users, Proton Mail and other Proton products should offer an option to use generic notification text instead of exposing message content in system notifications.
For example, instead of showing sender names, subject lines, or message previews, the notification could simply say:
“New Proton Mail message received”
This would reduce the chance that sensitive email metadata or content could later be recovered from operating system notification logs, backups, search indexes, forensic tools, or other third-party access.
Suggested feature: Generic Notification Mode
Proposed options:
Show full notification preview
Show sender only
Show generic notification only
Disable notifications entirelyThis would be a valuable privacy enhancement for Proton Mail, Proton Calendar, Proton Drive, Proton Pass, and other Proton apps where notifications may reveal sensitive content.

Booking - Length of bookable slots
Currently, it is only possible to offer slots of a maximum of 2h. Sometimes, this is insufficient, as I would like people to be able to select a whole morning or afternoon. Now, I have to offer a ‚start-slot‘, and add a description that this would mean the whole afternoon. Doesn’t tie in with the check for available time in my personal calendars.

Mass email delete by date
Please give us the option to mass delete emails. Ideally delete by date, For example all emails from Jan 1, 2022 and older. This helps us clean out our emails, saves server space, and has important privacy implications. I'll bet I'm not the first to ask for this, but I was encouraged to ask here to add my request to others. Hopefully there is enough demand or you see the need, to get some attention to this change. Thanks for listening.

Move or Archive conversation as a whole via keyboard shortcut
MAC desktop App for proton mail version 1.12.1
Current behaviour
When a conversation is open pressing the keyboard shortcut 'A' archives a single message from that conversation.
When a conversation is open pressing the toolbar archive button archives the entire conversation.
The tooltip on the toolbar archive button shows the Letter A as the shortcut.Desired functionality
Make a clear distinction between the two functions of archiving an entire conversation vs a single message.Suggested solution
Add SHIFT-A as a shortcut to archive entire conversation.10 votes -
Show categories above folders
It would be nice to show the categories above the folders on the left side panel.
I use categories much more often than folders and right now I have to scroll through all the folders before I can choose a category for an email.
A bit more rearranging flexibility would be welcome.
Or, come to think of it: if I choose "pit mail into category" don't show folders at all and vice versa.

Mail layout - bleh. I moved away from protonmail to fastmail cause i just couldn't stand the proton mail interface.
the UX is not great. Here's how to make it simple for you. Go look at Fastmail. Make Proton Mail like fastmail. Customizability of the inbox, hey what a concept, I can scroll thru 1000s of emails, rather than having to PAGE THRU EACH 25 or 30 EMAILS , that alone stinks. I'll stop as I have no more energy for this fight--- I already switched.

Same colors for appointment entries in a shared calendar
My wife and I share a calendar. When I create a calendar entry and color-code it, the appointment is also displayed in my wife's calendar, but without the category color being applied. This makes it difficult to easily identify specific calendar entries at a glance and maintain a better overview.

Feature Request: Native Retention Policy Support with Backup and Export Integration
Dear Proton Developers,
Retention and deletion management in Proton Mail currently require manual intervention using labels and searches. Although message expiration (self-destruct) and trash/spam auto-delete exist, they don’t provide sufficiently customizable or automated retention control based on user-defined policies.
Proposed improvements:
Introduce native retention policies configurable per folder and/or label, with options like:
Keep emails forever
Keep in inbox for X days, then archive or export automatically
Delete immediately or after specified time periods
Integrate automated export/backup functionality to securely transfer emails to secondary encrypted storage before deletion, enabling safe archiving and compliance.
Provide a user interface to monitor, audit, override, and adjust retention settings easily.
Ensure these policies complement existing expiration and auto-deletion features for comprehensive lifecycle management.
This would greatly reduce the complexity of maintaining mailbox hygiene, increase user confidence in data retention, and align Proton Mail with best practices for privacy and compliance.
Thank you for considering this essential feature!

keep Proton Mail linux open in the background
Please add an option to keep Proton Mail Linux open in the background when closing the window. This would make opening it back faster, and allow us to receive notifications on new messages.

Feature suggestion: Day counters / milestone tracking in Proton Calendar
Feature suggestion: Day counters / milestone tracking in Proton Calendar
Proton Calendar currently only looks forward: events and appointments. I'd like to suggest adding a simple but powerful complementary feature — day counters, similar to apps like Daycounter.
What it would do:
- "Days since" a chosen date (e.g. company founded, quit smoking, contract start, sobriety, purchase date)
- "Days until" a future date (countdowns to renewals, deadlines, anniversaries)
- Optional reminders at milestones (100 days, 1 year, etc.)Why it fits Proton:
1. It's calendar-native data — dates are already the core object of the app. No new data model needed, just a new view on existing events.
2. Privacy angle: these are often highly personal dates (health, habits, sobriety, relationships). Today users store them in third-party apps with unknown data practices. Proton's E2E encryption is a genuine differentiator here — this is exactly the kind of sensitive data people would prefer to keep inside the Proton ecosystem.
3. Retention & daily engagement: counters give users a reason to open the calendar daily, not only when they have meetings. It moves Proton Calendar from a utility to a personal dashboard.
4. Low complexity, high perceived value: it's essentially a recurring calculation + widget/list view, not a new product.The result: Proton Calendar becomes more than an agenda — a private timeline of what matters in your life, protected by encryption. I'd happily beta test this.
Thanks for considering it.

Remove elipses in titles of all-day-events
In the week-view of Proton Calendar, the titles of all-day-events end with an elipsis (...) when they are too long to be displayed completely. But these elipses take over so much space that it gets hard to read the actual title! For example some events in my calendar look like this:
- "🧽 cl..."
- "Visit..."
- "Call..."
Instead of displaying an elipsis, Proton Calendar should display as much of the title as possible. Then these events would look like this:
- "🧽 clean"
- "Visit Gran "
- "Call Deb"This is how it works with the month-view. Let's also mae make the week view work like this!
