Contacts
I want so much to move to Proton Mail and the Proton environment -- but the one thing that continues to stop me from doing so is the way Proton deals with contacts. I simply do not understand why a user can't choose to sort contacts by either first or last name or organization. I don;t understand why groups are limited to 100 contacts. Even the most primitive, most simplistic email programs allow a user to do this. Why is it taking Proton so long to implement what should be standard features? I want to be able to not only transfer all my gmail and outlook mail to Proton Mail, but my contacts and mailing lists, as well. Why is this so hard? How many users have to send in requests for Proton to prioritize this? Forgive my intensity, but this has been on your request list for years -- the same number of years I have been a Proton subscriber!!! Can we get a promise date when you will get this done so I can start planning the transfer of accounts?

Feature suggestion: autoresponder per alias
I’d like to suggest an improvement to the autoresponder feature in Proton Mail. Currently, it works globally for the entire mailbox, but it would be very useful to have the option to set an autoresponder only for specific email addresses or aliases.
Example use cases:
different aliases serve different purposes (e.g. work, projects, newsletters) and require separate automatic replies,
ability to enable an autoresponder only for selected contacts,
greater flexibility when managing aliases and custom domains.
This functionality would significantly improve the convenience of using Proton Mail and make it easier to manage email in a professional way.
Thank you for considering this suggestion.

Improved information for processing filters
Often I set up a rule, select the option to apply to existing mail in my inbox, then go to the inbox and don't see anything happening. I am then unsure if there is a mistake in my rule, or Proton is busy processing in the background and I just need to wait. It would be nice if there were some visual indicator or message that rules were processing the inbox. Another useful piece of info would be when I "preview" the rule, it lists the messages that will be affected.

Support YubiKey-only MFA (disable soft token option)
I would like to request the ability to configure ProtonMail accounts to use YubiKey-only MFA, with the option to disable soft token authentication.
This feature is particularly important for high‑sensitivity individuals, such as myself serving as a diplomat for a large country, where maximum account security is essential.
Google already supports YubiKey-only MFA, and I would prefer to switch to ProtonMail for its overall security model. Adding this feature would make ProtonMail a stronger choice for users who require hardware‑based authentication exclusively.

Fix Participant List Not Showing Sending Account
Whenever I invite someone to an event who doesn't have Proton (like Gmail or another calendar platform), the guest list does not show up properly to them, and my Proton account doesn't show on the guest list either. It would be nice if this could be remedied so it behaves like Gmail or other calendar platforms when inviting people.

Add keyboard shortcut to enlarge text (accessability)
In the mail program, we can use "ctrl -" to decrease the size of of not just email text, but of the program itself. As a user with visual impairments, when I do this accidentally (thinking of programs that allow me to enlarge the text again, I am usually doing this to take a screenshot of a long email) I am forced to uninstall the program and reinstall it to be able to read any text
this is inaccessable and really must be changed, regardless of how many people care about it

Keep contact icon through SimpleLogin
Hello,
I apologize if this idea has already been submitted, I searched but found nothing.
I'm using Proton Pass/SimpleLogin to create aliases for every account I have. Since emails sent to aliases are proxied through SimpleLogin we are actually receiving the email from SimpleLogin and not from the original sender. That's the expected behavior of course, but my point is that no contact icon is showed because of that. For example instead of having Amazon favicon for Amazon emails I have "AA".
My suggestion is to display the brand icon based on the original sender to still have icons even when we are using aliases.
Thanks a lot!

Add support for Short and Long Swipes in Proton Mail
I have used the Spark email client for year and have been heavily relying on having 4 swipe options i.e. short and long swipes left and right. This give more flexibility and reduces the amount of inputs/actions needed to process emails. The ability to go through and inbox quickly is really essential in a modern email client.

Antidote linked to Proton Mail
The corrector "Antidote" helps me a lot when I wrote a text or an e-mail. It works for French and English.
It's not possible to link Antidote to Proton Mail for the moment.
It would be very helpfull to have this link, so when writing an e-mail, it will be checked during the typing.2 votes -
Make past-dates more visually evident on Calendar
When viewing the month grid, the only indicator that a day is in the past is the absence of the “current‑day” blue circle and any past even that is slightly greyed out. All past days share the same background grid color as future days, so it takes a quick visual scan to locate today’s date and to distinguish past dates from upcoming ones.
Would be nice to add a subtle background shading (e.g., a light gray overlay) to every day‑cell whose date is earlier than the current and future days. This would make past days instantly recognizable at a glance, reduce the cognitive load when locating today’s date and keep the UI clean—use a low‑contrast shade so existing event colors remain readable.
Maybe this could be added under the Appareance setting, as every use may have a different preference, so they can select how past-days grid background should look, etc.

New 'Move messages to' menu is worse
Takes more clicks to move a message. Less space to see existing folders. Little need to search. Little need to create new folders in this menu. 'Apply to future messages is ambiguous', should have separate button/menu for filters/rules. Little need for cancel button.
Revert change. Move message on clicking folder name

Calendar Day View Popup
It would be nice to allow for a popup view of the events for the day (similar to Samsung's default calendar app). For example, if I have my calendar in month view but I click on one of the days in that month, a popup with the events for that day appears. You also have the option to hit the "+" button to add events for that day (taken to the event entry screen) or just tap away from the popup to return back the the calendar view (month view in my case).
Here is an example: https://techwiser.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Samsung-Calendar-Event-Open.jpg (from this page: https://techwiser.com/how-to-sync-samsung-calendar-to-google-calendar-or-vice-versa/)
Right now, in Proton Calendar when you tap a date from the month view, the day view takes up the entire screen and you have to hit back "<" on the phone to get back to your original view (month in my case). It's not terrible but the popup is cleaner and more convenient.

Multiple same emails grouped together limit
Add a toggle so you can adjust the amount of the same emails being grouped together, before another group of the same emails are created. As far as i can tell, the limit is 100, then a new group is made.

Weekly/Monthly view (and more..) in mobile calendar app
Weekly/Monthly view (and more..) in mobile calendar app.
I think we need some more views in mobile calendar app to make us better experience, instead of just Schedule View and Daily View. Especially when you are/try to move from other calendar app.
In here or Reddit I saw different opinion and I would like to wrap it up with mine here.
Views we need:
- Weekly Schedule View (Google Calendar schedule view style)
- Weekly Timeline View (Outlook Calendar schedule view style)
- Weekly Vertical view (Muji Schedule Planner style)
- Monthly Schedule View (Google Calendar schedule view style)
- Monthly Expansion View (Fantasical and Timetree montly view style)
- Option to switch between schedule view and event expansion view maybeDifferent people use different view style depends on their schedule tightness, imo I sometimes switch between them in Outlook and Timetree.
If the schedule is tight in a week I will switch to weekly vertical view (Muji/Google style), to have a better hourly view, and the opposite, switch back to monthly expansion view(Fantastical style) to have more monthly control and know where/when to put my new task.
Also I think there are importance to share calendar with Family, but that's another topic I won't go though here.
Feel free to leave more opinion to discuss and let Proton know how well we want it.

Integrated mail and calendar app on iPhone
I would like to have an integrated mail / calendar app on iPhone, as Outlook does. This would prevent the requirement of having two separate but related apps, and simplifies manipulation.

Remember last used account
I have more than one protonmail account (some for voluntary work and a private one for myself).
When I go to protonmail.com, then I'm automatically logged in to the first account (it seems they're sorted alphabetically).
I then switch account, read / write some mails, and close the window.
Later, when I come back, I am again logged into the first account, not the one I used last.
It would be more convenient if I was logged into the last used account.
Bonus feature: Some users might want to always be logged into a default account. You could make it an option to be logged into a certain account always or the last used account.Off-topic: It's way too difficult to give feedback.
1: You enter the subject, thinking that this is the entire message, and you don't want to click the button to post a new topic, because it's not your entire message.
2: When you're about finished writing your message, you find out that you need to register an account to post - you can't use your Protonmail login; eg. you need to create a new login with different password rules, so you'll want to save the message you've written (copy-and-paste), before you register
3: After registering, you need to sign in again. This could have been done automatically when you've confirmed your email address.I have more than one protonmail account (some for voluntary work and a private one for myself).

Proton Mail Business: Journal Inbox for Compliance
Proton's stronger cryptography makes it more difficult to meet certain compliance standards that require retention policies and auditability.
There is a deleted thread about being compliant with the German GoBD which applies to most German Businesses. [https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/284483-proton-mail/suggestions/46327108-gobd-conformant-archiving-for-business-accountsl] [https://ao.bundesfinanzministerium.de/ao/2023/Anhaenge/BMF-Schreiben-und-gleichlautende-Laendererlasse/Anhang-64/inhalt.html]
Of couse implementing a country specific legal framework is probably out of scope for Proton Mail.
But a lot of solutions can be integrated by having a 'Journal Inbox' which receives a copy of every incoming and outgoing message.
These are available in many other Business Email products:
– Exchange Server: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/policy-and-compliance/journaling/journaling
– MS365: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/policy-and-compliance/journaling/journaling
– Google Workspace: https://support.google.com/a/answer/7276605?hl=enThis should be a lot less work than GoBD and would open the German market as well as other markets or industries that need such a feature for their compliance.

Add switch to prevent trash emails being sorted
When adding a new filter and "applying to all", it sweeps up previously deleted emails. Add a switch to the filter creation to explicitly exclude Trash during filter creation. Clearly any new mail will filter correctly once the filter is set up.
