Open the next email automatically after deleting or moving the first one
When I delete a message I want to go directly to the next email, instead of going to the inbox and then click the next email.
This feature is a simple one, but when you have to read a lot of emails it saves a lot of time.
It is available both in Gmail and Yahoo.
Thank you for your attention.
Work on this feature has started, beginning with iOS availability.

This is critical for me to keep using the product.

This would be a large boost in productivity for a relatively small amount of effort. Even without power users in mind, it would be so much easier and efficient to open the next email automatically instead of clicking "Down" -> "Enter" or manually clicking on the next email.

Its totally unbelievable that you seem to ignore this request that came 8 years ago. Please show us that you care at all by at least commenting your thoughts for this request.

This is an absolute must for me. For those that don’t want it, make it a setting.

It constantly amazes me how Proton ignores basic UI stuff like this. Webmail has been around for decades, just copy the basics that Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, Fastmail, etc have all trained users to expect, and differentiate your product by its great security features rather than it's unfriendly interface.

I would want this not only after deleting, but on other actions such as marking as spam, archiving, or moving the email to another folder.

Coming over from M365 / Outlook for Mac, and this is a critical workflow item for me to triage email on a daily basis quickly. We were about to move our company over to Proton for Business but are hesitant now seeing something as simple as this lingering for years.

Does someone at Proton really user their own interface with keyboard shortcuts?
****, didn't know this wasn't possible. Feels like it's a standard thing that I had with gmail / fastmail for years.

Simply put - this is the reason I haven't been able to stick with ProtonMail. And if I can't stick with Mail, then I'm not sticking with Calendar, Pass, VPN, etc...
Fastmail do it perfectly - an option in the settings. Keeps everyone happy.

Simply put: after 20 years with Gmail, I need this feature.

I would like if Protonmail has an auto advance feature like it has in Gmail.
There you have a setting where you can choose what happens after deleting/ archiving/ moving a conversation. Options could be:
- go to next conversation
- go to previous conversation
- go back to list (happens currently)With that feature, it is easier to manage many emails in a short period of time, since after you archived or deleted an email you've seen you already can see the next/ previous and not have to manually click the next.

Which engineer want's an easy ticket with a bunch of cheering customers upon completion... it's an easy win and the professionals that are trying to use protonmail will appreciate it. Here is the user story.
"User does inbox zero. User opens Protonmail. First email in list is opened. User uses G+T to trash the email. Next email is automatically selected/opened."
The value prop being that the user never left the keyboard. Currently, after pressing G+T you have to use your mouse to select the next email - making the keyboard shortcuts nearly useless considering you are jumping back and forth from mouse to keyboard.
Once again... this is a super easy win. I have a visionary account because I've actually replaced Google with Proton. I think it's safe to assume other professionals (who are likely high paying members) are the ones upvoting this request. Casual/free users likely won't care for things like inbox zero.
Thanks for all the hard work you do! I love watching the progress over the years :)

I have the following option for Auto-Advance in my GMail account:
After archiving, deleting, muting, etc. a conversation:
Go to the next (newer) conversation
Go to the previous (older) conversation
Go back to the threadlistYou can pick one of those. This allows a much cleaner flow of working through your emails each day instead of being taken back to the inbox after each.

Not sure what good it will be to add a vote and It's disappointing to see a highly requested feature going back to 2016 not addressed. It certainly puts pause in my decision to pay for and fully switch to Proton.

I'm also reviewing proton mail as a replacement for Gmail. I would really like to switch to proton mail or something else, paying for it would be a no-brainer for me. But the lack of this feature also makes me want to continue my search for a replacement.
But I see its been 7 years, so its obvious we should expect that it will never be.

This would take a front-end developer 5 to 10 minutes to change (source: I am a front-end developer). I am surprised how long this ticket has been open.

Hi - I would like it to be an option I could toggle on or off.

I keep checking in to see if Protonmail has added this, waiting to buy because otherwise this is unusable. It needs to be in the mobile and web app please!
