One simple feature request
A "Pin to Top" capability for emails would a great feature. It would be similar to the Star feature, except any email pinned to the top would stay at the top of the list no matter how the inbox is sorted. That way it doesn't scroll off the bottom of the screen.

Snooze Sent Mail
In Gmail, you can snooze any messages, including those that are sent. It would be great to have this feature in Proton Mail. I use it to ensure I follow up on emails I have sent and have not received a response by a certain time.

pop out draft message as a separate window
In the desktop ProtonMail app for Mac, which includes mail and calendar as different tabs/views, I really need the ability to pop out a draft message as a separate window while I am composing it. I often receive messages asking me to list my availability for a meeting. In Outlook, I am able to pop out the message so I can look at my calendar while drafting the message. In the ProtonMail desktop app, the draft is stuck in the mail view, so I need to remember or write down information somewhere else after looking my calendar.

Improve differentiation between unread and read mails
After the major UI refactoring of the Android mail app some weeks ago, we're struggling with some of the changes. Let me explain one problem:
- Differentiate between read and unread mails
It is very difficult to simply "see" which mails are new and which ones are already read. The only difference seems to be, that new mails are listed using bold font where already read emails are using the normal font. It doesn't matter which theme is used, you need to have a deeper look to recognize "oh, I've already read this mail".
Please improve the inbox layout in such a way that it is clear with a blink of an eye, which mails are "new" (unread) and which ones are "old" (already read).

Edit/delete both Current and Future events for a recurring event series
Google Calendar has long supported the ability to choose whether modifications to an event in a recurring series will affect the current event only, or the current event and all future events. Exchange long lacked this ability, but at some point has gained an option to do so: https://oneminuteofficemagic.com/2025/06/12/editing-recurring-events-in-outlook-with-this-and-all-following-events/
Workflows I wish I could do but don't think I can right now (or it is difficult to do):
- Delete an event from a recurring event, plus all future events in the recurring event. Eg, I have a recurring event, but I no longer need it going forward.
- Edit an event in a recurring event series, and have any changes to it apply to it and all future events (but not earlier events). Eg, The meeting's name is going to change, or maybe I need to move its standard date/time to a different date/time, or change its frequency going forward, but I don't want to modify past events.

Custom Calendar and Email Notification Sounds
We really need to have the ability to customize the sound of the notifications in both Proton Calendar and Proton Mail. There’s currently no options at all in the apps for iOS/iPadOS so we’re left with just a ‘ding’ that very easily gets missed. For these apps to be useful we need to be able to tailor notification sounds (customize the default sounds for each app, set custom sounds for specific contacts, set custom sounds per event and/or calendar, etc.). Thanks!

Email Templates!
Sometimes I send dozens of emails that have the same text, only the recipient's name at the beginning changes. In thse cases, with good old Thunderbird I just create a template, open it, write the recipient's address, and send it. Swift and clean.
Proton doesn't have email templates. I'm lucky because I know of Thunderbird, but if I were just slightly less tech savvy that would be some stress you give me, Proton!
Note: Mailchimp and the like just don't feel privacy-oriented since they decided to block an account I used because the email was determine that it was encouraging criminal activities. It was an email that said "We'll have this new LinkedIn group for local craftsmen, join us if you like". So, yea, weapons made in clay are probably a thing in Mailchimp's AI's reasoning.

adding docs directly from proton mail to proton drive
It's good to have the option to add attachment docs directly from proton mail to proton drive using a simple click on the proton mail; since right now I have to download it on my computer or my tablet or my cellphone and then upload it into proton drive to review it, save it or even edit it (if it is docs or sheets).

Preview attachment in app without downloading (Proton Mail Android)
It is not possible to preview attachments in the Proton Mail Android app without them being downloaded to the "Downloads" folder of the device, which unneccessarily clutters the folder with content you only meant to view and maybe then decide to download.
The Proton Drive app does let you preview files without them ending up on the visible device storage, so this should be possible.
Related, but really not a real preview feature, at least not on Android:

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,

Disable mobile app notifications for spam e-mail (Android)
Please consider adding the option to disable mobile notifications for e-mails that are considered spam. Currently those e-mails (those added to the Spam folder), have notifications on the Android app, along with the non-spam e-mails.

To enhance Proton Calendar with a feature that automatically calculates ages for recurring birthday reminders, highlights milestone birthday
User Story:
As a Proton Calendar user,
I want to add a person's date of birth for recurring birthday reminders,
So that the calendar can automatically calculate and display the age they'll be turning each year,
And I want the option to only show ages for milestone birthdays,
So that I can easily recognize and prepare for these special occasions while maintaining privacy for regular birthdays.Prompt for creating an interface:
Design a user interface for Proton Calendar that showcases the new birthday and milestone birthday features. The interface should include:A monthly calendar view with a few sample birthdays, including at least one milestone birthday.
A visual indicator (such as a special icon or color) to distinguish milestone birthdays from regular birthdays.
A "Add Birthday" form or modal that allows users to input:Name of the person
Date of birth
Option to set as a recurring annual eventBirthday events on the calendar that display the person's name and the age they'll be turning (e.g., "John's Birthday (32)").
A settings panel or modal where users can customize:Which birthdays are considered milestones (e.g., 10, 16, 21, 30, 40, 50, 60, etc.)
Whether to display ages for all birthdays or only for milestone birthdaysA pop-up or tooltip that appears when hovering over a birthday, showing additional information (e.g., "30th Birthday - Pearl Anniversary" for milestone birthdays).
An option to set special reminders for milestone birthdays (e.g., remind 1 month in advance).
A toggle switch in the birthday event details to enable/disable age display for individual contacts.User Story:

Desktop client: improve startup and tray options
The desktop client lacks a proper option to start automatically with the system. I can add it manually to startup, but then the app opens normally instead of minimized.
It would be great to have these options:
Start minimized.
Show or hide in the tray.
Minimize to tray or taskbar.This is essential because many devs end up with both tray and taskbar icons unnecessarily. I usually minimize to the taskbar, but when I close an app it still runs in the tray in the background.
Alternatively, please provide launch keys/flags so I can create my own startup shortcut with these behaviors.

Smart Autofill Suggestions for Event Titles & Locations
I’d love to see Proton Calendar add smart autofill suggestions for event titles and locations based on previously created events, similar to how Google Calendar handles event creation.
Example:
If I previously created an event called:
“Jake - Hanging out”Then the next time I create a new event and start typing:
“Jake”Proton Calendar would automatically suggest:
“Jake - Hanging out”If there are multiple past events starting with “Jake”, it could show a dropdown list of matching previous entries. The same functionality would also be very useful for the location field.
Why this would help:
• Keeps naming consistent across events
• Makes calendars look cleaner and more organized
• Speeds up event creation
• Reduces repetitive typing
• Improves usability for recurring social events, meetings, appointments, etc.Suggested behavior:
• Suggestions appear only from the user’s own previously created events
• Suggestions update as the user types
• Selecting a suggestion autofills the full title or location
• Optional toggle in settings for users who prefer manual entry onlyThis would make Proton Calendar feel much faster and more refined for everyday use.
Thank You!

Appointment scheduling - richer features
The new appointment scheduling is a great addition to the Proton Suite! However I agree with some other suggestions here that there are a few features lacking at the time of launch.
Here are a some things I find missing that would be great additions, that I haven't already found suggestions for:
Larger selection of appointment duration (e.g 15 min, 20 min, 40 min, etc), or custom input
More choices on "How far in advance can someone book?", or custom input
Ability to customise the content of the confirmation email would be great
Have the subject of the confirmation email be the name of the appointment they booked:
Let's say my booking page is called "Consultation", the subject of the confirmation email should be "Invitation for Consultation starting on [date] at [time]" instead of "an event"
Here are the other suggestions I've found interesting that you might want to vote on (hope I'm allowed to link them like this) :

Remove Email Address from Bookingpage
Hi, I tested the new booking page functionality in Proton Calendar today. I saw that my default email address is displayed on the booking page. It is publicly visible to everyone. Why is this? I do not want to disclose my email address by default. Can this be turned off?

Avoid exposing core email addresses
So here's something about the behaviour of Proton Mail I find puzzling and concerning. When I received a mail sent to one of my aliases from an unwanted source in the desktop app for Mac, I clicked on the option to disable the alias. I was then presented with a dialog box USING ONE OF MY CORE NON-ALIAS EMAIL ADDRESSES to send an email to unsubscribe from the sender's email list. This seems to be the worst response for my my privacy - why on earth would I want to send an email from one of my core email addresses and thereby expose it, when all I wanted to do was disable an alias????
Surely a much better response would be to send the unsubscribe request using the alias address? Or NOT to email an unsubscribe request at all, but rather, to go to Proton Pass and simply disable the email alias there.So here's something about the behaviour of Proton Mail I find puzzling and concerning.
