My calendars arrangement and sorting function
The ability to re-arrange the order of My calendars in the desktop side bar/event drop down menu would be a useful quality of life change. Currently, you must deleted the calendars you have created and create new ones in the exact order you want instead of dragging and dropping the sorting, which is terrible.

Tasks in Proton Calendar
The Idea
I would love to see Proton Calendar evolve into a unified productivity hub by integrating a native task and project management layer — think the best of Microsoft To Do and Microsoft Planner, but built with the privacy-first DNA that makes Proton what it is.
What I Am Proposing
A task management module embedded directly inside Proton Calendar that allows users to:
Create and assign tasks with due dates, priorities, and labels — visible alongside calendar events in a single, unified view.
Organise tasks into project boards — simple Kanban-style columns (To Do / In Progress / Done) for teams or personal workflows.
Track deadlines and milestones without leaving the calendar environment — no more context-switching between three different tools.
Set recurring tasks and receive reminders that align with existing calendar notifications.
Share task boards with collaborators within the Proton ecosystem, with granular permission controls.
Why This Matters
Right now, managing deadlines across tools is fragmented. Calendar events live in one place, tasks in another, and project milestones in yet another. For professionals managing complex, deadline-driven workflows — such as regulatory compliance cycles, multi-party projects, or recurring reporting obligations — this fragmentation creates real risk: missed deadlines, duplicated effort, and unnecessary context-switching.
Proton already owns the calendar real estate. Tasks are the natural next layer. The combination would make Proton Calendar a serious, privacy-respecting alternative to the Microsoft 365 productivity stack — without surrendering data to advertising-driven ecosystems.

The Ask
This does not need to be a full project management suite on day one. A phased rollout could work well:
Phase 1: Personal tasks with due dates, visible in calendar view.
Phase 2: Task lists / labels and recurring task support.
Phase 3: Shared boards and milestone tracking for teams.
Final Thought
Proton has already proven that privacy and productivity are not mutually exclusive. Adding a robust task layer to Proton Calendar would be the next logical step in making the full switch away from Big Tech ecosystems a realistic option for professionals and organisations that care about where their data lives.
Would love to hear whether others in the community share this need — and whether the Proton team has any plans in this direction.

Encrypt More Calendar Details
Currently Proton Calendar does not end-to-end encrypt the Title, Colour and Description of the individual calendars inside the Proton Calendar app. I think this is a risk in regards to privacy, since with the names of the calendars and the times of the events in those calendars one can reconstruct a lot about a single person. I think it's in the interest of Proton to also end-to-end encrypt the information of the individual Calendars themselves.

Less resource-heavy Proton Mail App for Linux
The Proton Mail app on linux is very, very resource heavy, over the 100%. The fan starts to blow immediately when starting Proton, see the top listing below.

Change behavior of check all box when some emails are already selected
When some emails are already selected, the current behavior of the check all box is to check all on the first click, and uncheck all on the second click. This is the opposite of the behavior in other email apps such as Gmail. If you already have some boxes checked, it's more likely that you've just finished whatever action you were taking and just need to deselect them all again, so the first click should uncheck all the boxes, and then a second click would check all the boxes. Or at least that's my opinion. If this ends up being controversial, it could maybe be a behavior that could be toggled in the settings.

Mail Mobile show folder of emails in conversations
When you click on an email that is part of a conversation, we should see in which folder we have put the other emails in that conversation. The old version of Mail for Mobile was doing that, but not the new one.

Show event creator in shared calendars
I use Proton Calendar on the macOS desktop app with a shared calendar. Currently, when an appointment is created in the shared calendar, I cannot easily see who created the event.
It would be very useful if Proton Calendar showed the event creator or owner inside the event details. For example, the event could display something like:
“Created by: [name/email address]”
This would help shared calendar users understand who added an appointment, especially in calendars used by families, teams, or small groups where multiple people can create and edit events.
Ideally, this information should be visible in the event details on the macOS desktop app, and preferably also across the web and mobile apps for consistency.

Allow the send from email field to be blank
Allow the send-from email field to be blank, forcing me to ensure I'm sending from the right address. Suddenly sending from a different email has caused a lot of confusion for both me and the recipient. If it is an impossible programing task to let me set the email to be used for each contact, then leaving the field blank when composing would be a huge help. I want all my email in one account, so I'm not logging in multiple times.
(note: I've updated this suggestion to reflect that it is only when beginning a new email, and not when responding.)Allow the send-from email field to be blank, forcing me to ensure I'm sending from the right address.

allow duplication of bookings
i use the same options for all of my bookings. being able to duplicate a booking makes creating new booking pages much easier.
alternatively, allow for preset meeting times cuz it's a pain in the butt to have to enter availability over and over again.

Feature Request: Auto-Delete Imported Gmail Emails to Save Proton Storage
Hello Proton Team,
I really like the idea of integrating Proton Mail with my Gmail account. It makes it much easier to centralize and manage emails while benefiting from Proton's privacy features.
However, I would love to see an option for automatic deletion of emails that are imported or synchronized into Proton Mail from Gmail after a configurable period of time. Currently, these messages continue to occupy storage space in my Proton account, which means I need to regularly log in and manually manage them to free up space.
Having a feature that automatically deletes synchronized Gmail messages (for example, after 7, 30, or 90 days) would make the integration much more practical, especially for users with limited storage plans. It would reduce maintenance efforts while still allowing users to benefit from the integration.
Thank you for considering this suggestion, and thank you for the great work on Proton products.
Best regards,
