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 content
This 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.

I completely agree, this is such an essential feature for mail users, especially since there is no 'tasks' tool under the proton umbrella. I think you outlined the workflow quite well, but I would even just be happy to be able to 'forward to --> calendar' like in outlook.
Great suggestion Uncle Dre -

This is my biggest headache right now. I get emails from doctors office, webinars, church events, etc.. and I have to re-create each one in Proton. this is an essential feature that is missing and readily available from Google, iOS, Outlook,

But please don't make it only for Proton calendar! Just a button that uses the add to calendar function of android (and probably apple too)
