Filter Categories/Sub Filters
When adding entries into a filter, allow to create sub filters. This would be useful if: The domain has multiple addresses, and they could be filtered to go where they need to go. You could keep the max 50 main filters, but you could have a higher limit of sub filters. You could also create Filter categories, where you could add various domains. This would be similar to sub filters, but you could define/have more granular control of where this and that mail can go. It could also be a simple way to know what those addresses for.

Automatically prompt to file sent emails
Automatically prompt to file sent emails. It would be very useful to be able to file sent emails as they are sent. An option to prompt sent emails as they go would help keep important emails received and sent in the same place.

Enable contact group membership even without an e-mail
Groups are useful as sets of contacts even though they may not have [yet] an e-mail address. Currently it is not possible to add a contact to a group if they don't have an address, so I use fake e-mail addresses for those, but this is not very consistent...

Bridge: Don’t Terminate Connection When Quitting App
When using CMD+Q with the macOS Proton Bridge app this also terminates the connection. In my opinion the connection should stay alive (sometimes you accidentally close the app window with CMD+Q instead of CMD+W) or at least it should warn you with a message.

Partner with Signal for a messaging, calling, video app
If Proton could partner with Signal so that both customer bases could communicate with each other with messaging, voice, and video. One of the biggest limitations with private messaging is whether or not the people you want to communicate with have the same technology. Expanding the customer base would benefit the customers of both groups. Signal has a mature product running on all of the major platforms. Proton could offer international hosting, which would limit government throttling like we've recently seen with Telegram. It would seem like Signal and Proton could find common ground that benefits both of them and their customers.

Remove notification after event ends
In Google Calendar, on Android at least, event notifications automatically disappear after an event ends. It would be nice if Proton Calendar did the same, to help keep the system notification tray tidier.

Overnight events
While traveling, it is important to know at what accommodation you sleep at night. These are events that span two days (or if staying a longer time, multiple nights). Is there a way to mark these kinds of events in the calendar? Especially useful if it can be clearly visible from the calendar overview that there is a lack of such a night-spanning event (i.e. one night one has not yet planned a place to stay).
Currently, on the Android app, we see by the number of dots below a date how many events are there.
To indicate the presence of an overnight event, one could put a small arrow or marker on these dots, so to know that it is a night-covering event. Then when a night is missing, it is immediately clear from the overview.
Especially when traveling for business to many places, while the plan changes dynamically, having such a feature helps the user to reassure themselves that they got every night figured out.

Docker Version of Bridge (linux)
Provide an official repository for Proton-Bridge as a Docker Container. Currently its only possible to connect Protonmail via IMAP to other docker services (Ollama-AI, Paperless-ngx) using one of many community made and managed docker images. Since many people are doing it, surely its better to provide a secure and trusted option.

Double-tap email to auto zoom
It would be nice if double-tapping the email body/text in the Proton Mail app for Android would auto zoom the text width to fit the display area. Similar behavior can be seen when viewing a PDF file with Google Drive. This would certainly improve usability and the overall user experience with Proton Mail.

more defaults for each calendar
Basically all options able to be defaulted to any calendar. Duration (including all day), notifications (type and frequency), location, even details and the options to come (like attachments).
One calendar is "Birthdays" while one calendar is "Meetings." We can see how the defaults would be very different here yes? Every birthday is saved as all day and will want to be reminded further out. Meetings are probably short specific times and reminders are closer to the date. This is true for each and every calendar yes?
I'd say a big opportunity to increase efficiency here.

Event Presets for Calendar
When creating a new event in Proton Calendar, it would be nice to be able to have a list of custom presets to choose from. I often have to input events that have the same details (duration, name, calendar) at different times, and it would be helpful to not have to fill in each data field every time.

Add imap accounts from other providers to the desktop and mobile mail app
I would like to be able to add IMAP accounts for other providers to the mobile and desktop mail apps. I have a few email accounts (student, work) that aren't proton mail, and it is annoying to have to use separate mail apps.

Simplify Proton Mail Bridge configuration
I have a growing list of self-hosted services, and am moving toward unattended installation and reinstallation. Proton Mail Bridge creates a challenge as it wants to be configured using an interactive CLI. Using the 'expect' utility doesn't work well because of the way log messages are presented. Providing the inputs via stdin is fragile for items such as imap-security (not idempotent) and autoupdate (confirmation prompt only when changing). I'd like to see a better way to set this up.
- Either use a plain-text file for general Bridge configuration, or commands that are idempotent and don't require confirmation (e.g. 'set imap-security ssl')
- Instead of logging in to the Bridge and generating imap/smtp passwords there, allow creating/generating this password in Proton account settings. (This would solve the TOTP problem, and also allow the password to be stable in case the Bridge needs to be reinstalled.)

Push notifications in Desktop Browsers via service workers & WebPush API.
When using Telegram Web in Firefox, I noticed that I received Push notifications without the site open. Upon search, found that, it registered a service worker and used Mozilla Push API service to fetch notifications.
Source : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/push-notifications-firefox
Similar is possible with FCM in Chromium.
Please use these workers to push notifications in Desktop browsers. Can be handy when not using Desktop clients and saves memory where the user doesn't need to have the tab open always.
P.S. It should not expose any metadata such as Email address or Subject line. Only that new email received.
If you are exposing it, the implementation should be E2E encrypted so that both email address and subject line is not exposed to the push service by using Web Push Encryption (RFC 8291) scheme correctly.

When I create a calendar entry the calendar switches to DAY view.
When I have completed my entry I have to manually re- select MONTH view from the top menu. Can you please make the calendar view return to whatever the default view is?2 votes -
Buttons should be at the end of the mail
Dear ProtonMail team,
I would like to suggest a usability improvement for the webmail interface.
Currently, the action buttons (such as delete, archive, etc.) are positioned above the email content. In practice, this creates friction: after reading a message, I often want to take an action, but I have to scroll back to the top to access those buttons.
It would improve the user experience significantly if these action buttons were also available at the end of the email, or if they remained visible while scrolling. This would allow users to act immediately after reading, without unnecessary navigation.
Thank you for considering this suggestion.
Kind regards,

Allow increase of tiny composer font size in iOS app
The composer font size in the iOS app is tiny and there is currently no way to increase the size. Changing font size in the per app settings under accessibility (in iOS) has no effect (it increases the font in the UI, but not in composer). This makes the iOS app next to useless for actually writing emails for anyone with any level of visual impairment, or just poor middle-aged eyes. Right now the only option is to compose emails in the Notes app and paste them in. Please fix this! It's a basic accessibility issue that discriminates against the visually impaired.

Native "Free/Busy" Website Embed (Bypassing Google)
Dear Proton Team,
I am a dedicated Proton user relying on your services for privacy. However, I am facing a major hurdle in using Proton Calendar for my business workflow.
The Problem: I need to display my availability to clients on my website (e.g., Wix, WordPress). Currently, there is no native way to do this. The only workaround is sharing an ICS link to Google Calendar and embedding that. This fails for two reasons:
Sync Latency: Google updates subscribed calendars very slowly (up to 24 hours delay), leading to double bookings.
Permission Conflicts: Google treats subscribed Proton calendars as "read-only" and blocks the public embedding of these "guest" calendars due to privacy settings I cannot change.
The Request: Please introduce a Native Public Embed Feature.
Function: Generate a secure HTML iframe code directly within Proton Calendar.
Privacy: This view should strictly show "Free/Busy" status, stripping all titles, descriptions, and locations server-side before rendering.
Benefit: This would allow professionals to display real-time availability on their websites while keeping their data within the Proton ecosystem, removing the need for Google entirely.
This feature would be a game-changer for freelancers and consultants who prioritize privacy.
Thank you for considering this!
