Feature Request – More Flexible Calendar Views & Year Overview
Dear Proton Team,
I’m writing to suggest an enhancement that would make the calendar experience even more enjoyable for users like me. It would be great if the interface allowed more flexible view options (e.g., customizable week ranges, adjustable column widths, and easy toggling between compact and expanded layouts).
Additionally, adding a dedicated “Year” view—showing all twelve months at once—would help users get a quick, high‑level perspective of their schedules and plan ahead more efficiently.
These improvements would boost productivity, reduce the need to switch between multiple tools, and align Proton Calendar with the flexibility offered by many competing calendar apps—all while preserving the privacy‑first ethos we love.
Thank you for considering this request!
Kind regards

Notifications for Shared Calendar Event Changes
Dear Proton Team,
I'm writing to request a new feature for Proton Calendar that would greatly improve the shared calendar experience.
Current Situation: When events are added or modified on a shared calendar by another user, there is currently no notification sent to other calendar participants.
Requested Feature: Please implement real-time notifications (similar to Apple Calendar) when someone adds, modifies, or deletes an event on a shared calendar. This would allow users to:
Stay informed about changes made by family members or colleagues
React promptly to schedule updates
Better coordinate shared schedules without constantly checking the calendar manually
Use Case: As someone who switched from Apple to Proton, this is a feature I genuinely miss. For example, when my spouse adds an event to our shared family calendar, I would like to receive an immediate notification so I can see it right away rather than discovering it later during manual checks.Why This Matters: This functionality is essential for effective collaboration on shared calendars and would significantly improve the user experience for families, teams, and anyone managing shared schedules.
Thank you for considering this enhancement. Proton's privacy-focused approach is excellent, and adding this quality-of-life feature would make Proton Calendar even more competitive.
Best regards

Offline mode for mobile
Please allow the app to perform offline operations (read any and all inbox email, delete, write and send emails), which will be queued for syncing whenever online. Same for calendar events.
As it is now, any email sending/deleting, calendar event creation etc will FAIL if the phone happens to be disconnecting from wifi, changing networks or any of the thousands of possibilities of a mobile device moving around at all times. Any other Android email client knows to queue these tasks offline (ie, gmail OUTBOX folder), and sync them with the server at any available time it manages to connect, or keep trying until it does (and not throwing a FAILED error, trashing all the text you wrote).

Proton - give some indication that you are viewing these (mainly excellent) suggestions
Having trawled through the first 12 pages here, there is no indication that I can find that Proton are even aware of people's suggestions and frustrations with Proton's products.
On the whole, the ideas listed are valid but I feel like I'm shouting into the abyss with no response from Proton.
Also, many people are suggesting the same idea; my reason for coming here is the ridiculous showing of your main Proton email address when replying to an alias. It may not actually expose your main email but as a UX seeing your main email in the From box when replying to an alias is simply bad design.
Proton - go through all of these suggestions and group them into similar concerns to avoid repetition. Then email each user who has taken the time to tell you how to improve your product and explain what you have done, giving them the option to remain grouped eg under 'Show the actual email alias in the 'From' box' if that's what your AI has decided the idea is about, or to stay out of the group if they feel your AI has misunderstood the issue.
For each group of similar suggestions (and suggestions that are unique) have a status box with the following types of response:
(a) Thank you for your suggestion. This feature already exists - it was implemented 23-6-2025, here's a link to the 'How to' page.
(b) Thank you for this suggestion. It is a good suggestion and we have requested it from the development team. They have replied and the provisional date for its implementation is 1-8-2026.
(c) Thank you for your suggestion but we will not be doing this because it would compromise privacy/is legally impossible/doesn't make sense - please clarify/doesn't align with our company ethos because.../etc.
If you were to do this it would make subscribers feel that they are listened to, it would clear out a lot of ideas that may be misunderstandings of the way the software should work or simply issues that have been addressed already. This would then give Proton a much clearer idea of what its users want from the Proton ecosystem.
Finally, I only became aware if this site after searching on the alias email issue. Perhaps you could send every subscriber an email after subscribing, making them aware of this site and putting it in a positive way, eg 'Thank you for subscribing, your money means we can continue to offer free Proton products to those who need privacy and security. Did you know you can let us know how we can improve our software suite? Go to protonmail.uservoice.com (or whatever the main web address is) and add to the conversation! You can vote for things already suggested, and add suggestions of your own'.

E-Mail polling instead of Google push services (Android)
Proton is motivated to replace Google products with privacy respecting solutions, however the Android app uses Google's FCM. While this is the easiest and most efficient way to receive push notifications, there should be a replacement (UnifiedPush or a own service, as requested in other ideas).
Until this is considered, another solution could be polling every 15/30 minutes (Thunderbird works like this). If the downsides like delayed notifications and slightly increased battery use are communicated to the user, this would be a good improvement for devices without Google Play Services.10 votes -
Appointment scheduling feature in Proton Calendar - Calendly like features are missing
In my opinion, this isn't a 100% replacement for the functionality offered by Calendly or TidyCal.
For the person making the booking, there's only a name and email address field. With Calendly and TidyCal, I have informative forms that my clients can fill out before booking. I'm missing address details (street, city, postal code, phone number) as well as a subject for the booking, ideally with a predefined selection that the client can choose and above all a text field.
Furthermore, my main Proton email address is displayed below the organizer in the booking field. Since I use my own domain address, which is associated with my practice, I should be able to choose what is displayed, as I don't want my private Proton address to appear there. Ideally, I would prefer that no email address be displayed at all.
Besides a link to the booking page, an embed code for websites would also be great.
It would be nice if these things could be improved.

calendar event colors
We desperately need more color options for proton calendar events! There are 6 nearly identical blues and zero reds or yellows! I understand this is optimized for dark mode but it makes light mode very visually unappealing. I use multiple calendars for each of my kinds of tasks and this keeps them from looking as visually distinct as google calendar.

Block off unavailable days across all booking pages
Use case: I have multiple booking pages in Proton Cal. I am traveling out of town for 9 days. How do I quickly tell my booking pages to block off that 9 day period as unavailable? There's currently no way I can see how to turn off days other than creating events to block out that time.
Booking all day events for 9 days would be annoying, and what if I go away for a month? Then I'd need to create 30 all day events? Would be good to have a button built into the calendar maybe close to booking pages to manage days you are unavailable. You'd click the button, a calendar view opens up, where you can toggle on or off days as unavailable days. You could also setup reoccurring unavailable windows (example: I'm unavailable every other week, or on the 25th day of every month, or every 3rd week of the month from tuesday to friday etc). The calendar view would communicate the global state of all available/unavailable days (for example: any unavailable days could have red circles around the date in the viewer).

Add to Calendar option in the email context menu to quickly create events
Dear Proton Mail Product Team,
Thank you for the continued development of Proton Mail and Proton Calendar. Your commitment to privacy and user-centric features is greatly appreciated.
I would like to request a feature that would streamline productivity and organization within the Proton ecosystem: the ability to add an email to Proton Calendar directly from the context menu in all apps.
Specifically:
• When right-clicking (or tapping the options menu) on an email in the inbox, or when viewing an open email, there should be an option to “Add to Calendar”
• This action would create a new calendar event pre-filled with the email’s subject as the event title, and the email body or a link to it in the description
• Optionally, it could detect and pre-fill suggested times or dates from the email contentThis small addition would greatly improve email-to-calendar workflows, helping users quickly convert information into actionable events without having to copy and paste manually.
This kind of integration is increasingly expected in modern productivity tools and would help bring Proton’s suite closer to parity with major providers, while maintaining your superior privacy standards.
Thank you for considering this feature. I believe many users would find it incredibly useful for daily organization and planning.

Using Proton Calendar for Better Daily and Meal Planning
I really appreciate how Proton Mail Calendar continues to improve usability and organization — having a reliable calendar that syncs across devices makes planning my day so much easier. I often schedule everything from work tasks to meal planning, and it’s handy to have reminders for everything.
On days when I’m planning out lunch or dinner with friends, having access to clear resources online makes that part of my schedule easier too. For example, when ordering takeout or deciding on group meals, I like to check out the Wingstop Menu to compare flavors, combos, and options before finalizing plans. If anyone else here enjoys planning meals ahead of time or wants to see a detailed breakdown of Wingstop items and flavors, you can check out the https://wingstopmenus.us/ Wingstop Menu.
Thanks again to the Proton Mail team for consistently enhancing Calendar features — it really helps with both work and life planning!

Access Android system shared calendar from ProtonMail
Android has a system-wide local (?) Calendar API, and some apps use it to push new events to the calendar (for example, the SNCF-connect application)
I would like Proton Calendar to be able to read events from this calendar, and optionally to write events to it.
it could be a special "Local" calendar distinct from others

booking page extends endlessly into the future - a definable limit is essential
The ability to customize the booking preview (e.g., 1, 2, 3, etc. months) gives you the flexibility to modify unavailable periods (for vacations, etc.) in the future. No one wants to see bookings 10 years from now, and certainly not without approval, see https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/284483-proton-mail-calendar/suggestions/51229348-booking-page-add-option-to-approve-booking

Mail Linux App (.deb/.rpm) thru apt/dnf just as VPN or flatpak, for auto-updates
Mail and Pass desktop clients for Linux already exist in .deb & .rpm. Could you please add this to the repo you already have for the VPN client (https://repo.protonvpn.com/) or make an official Flatpak release so that the update process can happen automatically?

No default address or variable default address
Currently, we are required to have a default email address. I have multiple email addresses in my account and use them for different purposes. But, when I open an email it automatically puts the default email address. If that is not the address I want to use, I have to change it. The problem is that it is easy to forget to change it and then I end up sending the email from the wrong address. I propose 2 solutions.
- Allow the user to have no default email. This would require the user to always pick an address when composing an email and avoid accidentally using the default address.
- I have my email segregated into different folders. So, all the emails coming or going from a particular address are in a single folder. When I am in that folder and I hit reply, it goes from the email address already used in that email. But, when I click on compose a new email, my brain expects it to know that I am in a particular alias email, but it just uses the default. Allow a way to set different default addresses for different folders.
Thanks

Protect Main E-Mail Address from leaking
Add an option in the settings to protect the main e-mail address from being leaked. When this option is turned on and I accidentily send an E-Mail which would reveal the default/main e-mail to the recipient the server would not send that e-mail and notify me that I need to use a reverse alias. Additionally, I think it would be nice to be able to select e-mails that differ from the main/default e-mail for protection, as some people might have multiple addresses they would want to protect from leaking.
