1. Show quantity of selected emails

   This is really simple, but there is no indication of how many emails I have selected.

   The only way I can know is if I select all in my inbox for example, it will say I have selected XX conversations, and I can select YY in my whole inbox. From this I know there are YY emails are in my inbox in total. But when it tells me I have selected XX emails, this is actually not as useful since I already know how many emails can be displayed in one page. The moment I uncheck an email, the number disappears, leaving me with no current tally of how many are still selected.

2. Expand the limit on levels of sub-folders within ProtonMail

   The current implementation of folders in Proton Mail allows for top-level folders and two levels of sub-folders beneath these.

   I can understand that allowing an unlimited level may not be practical, but an increse from 3 to 5 levels would make it much more useful for sorting.

3. Mail search UI should indicate it defaults to subject line

   Advanced search has all the categories, like searching body text, sender/receiver/date

   Therefore I ASSUME that the default search (not advance) searches only the subject line (as some threads on mail indicate it does).

   The User Interface should clarify this assumption

5. Improve Undo Send feature

   The "Undo Send" feature is very useful, but currently sending an email goes through two phases. First, when I click the "Send" button on the Compose screen, I get a "Sending message..." with a spinner. That takes a few seconds, and then you get "Message sent." with the Undo button.

   I think the user experience would improve if the Undo button would be available during the "Sending message..." phase already. Admittedly, it's a small change and improvement, but the frustration whenever you accidentally clicked the Send button too early, to have to wait for the Undo button to appear, is a very annoying one.

6. Exclude Archive toggle in Search

   User Story

   Contextualised User Story: As a user who has made extensive use of folders and labels via filters, I generally use "All mail" for search, however this pulls even archived mail. If I've relegated mail to archive I'd like to be able to easily exclude these from an All mail search, unless I'm specifically wanting to search archive.

   Simple Form: As a user I would like the option to simply exclude archive in an "All mail" or other search. With configuration preference to have this checked on or off by default and toggleable in the search interface.

   Proton Product Roadmap Benefits

   This would provide mail serivce performance benefits as users archives grow, improving search performance and load.

   This would also benefit business and enterprise customers who may have higher demand legal archiving requirements and provide a basis for warm storage options.

7. Options to send (large) images using my iPhone and iPad

   Proton Mail is lacking standard options for sending images in e-mails. The basic option that should be available is this one:
   - Give the user an option to embed/attach the image as small/medium/large/original. This is standard in all mail clients that I use. Proton is lacking this option that is used extensively with the users that I have gotten to move over to Proton. The workaround for now is to have another mail account that can be used with a standard mail client, and send images that way.

   To make things nicer for sending original quality images, Proton could implement an option to add images to Proton Drive and insert a link in the mail. Again, the workaround is to have another mail account that supports this option, and send images that way.

   I found this previous uservoice item on this topic that Proton considers done: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/284483-proton-mail-calendar/suggestions/18686818-resize-inline-images. I am very curious how a product manager can consider that request implemented given the limitations of the solution that was implemented. I am specifically adding iPhone and iPad support to this request as the options provided don't work for most users.

8. Recurring event every 5th weekday of the month

   Currently, we are able to schedule a recurring event for the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th weekday of the month. I would like to be able to create a recurring event for the 5th weekday of every month (for example, the 5th friday). This differs from the last Friday of every month, because it only exists in months with 5 Fridays.

   Similar functionality already exists for the day of the month. For example, the 31st of the month does not exist every month, but we are able to create recurring events for only the months that contain that date.

   It would be helpful to have the similar functionality for the 5th weekday.

9. Edit email in HTML and CSS for power users

   It would be nice to have the option to do custom HTML/CSS when sending an email. Most other email clients don't have this feature or have their limits on a feature like this, and so there is A LOT of potential for Proton to easily compete in this category.

   Proton currently has an option to switch over to plain text, but that seems more like a notepad/wordpad thing than a place for power users who would like to custom-write HTML for their emails. In fact, the plain text feature that currently exists feels like what I'd expect back in the early 2000s for an email; that's fine, it's great for people who don't want an overly complex email process. Keep it! But add a third option for power users that want to put

   <img src="mysource" width="50%">

   or

   <p style="text-align:center;">MY PARAGRAPH</p>

   into the email (hopefully that appears in plain text when I click post idea, otherwise it's gonna look weird). For me, the best thing I currently know of to compare to is HTML view on Blogger Articles and pages; there, when I am writing an article, I can switch to HTML view and easily correct weird bits of code or do other edits I otherwise wouldn't easily be able to do. I know Blogger/BlogSpot is not an email client, but it's the best demonstration I can think of to explain what I'm talking about.

   The W3Schools website also will show a preview with their HTML editor simultaneously with the HTML code, so perhaps, that's one step farther for this feature idea.

   I'm not sure how much of Proton's user base is made up of power users, but if Proton is trying to get more normies on the platform, then the edit HTML feature could be hidden behind an extra menu or something so that the normies don't accidently click into a POV they don't understand... maybe power users have to enable the button in settings to then have the third option... just an idea if this would be a problem for normies (I know it can feel weird to see something (like html) you've not really seen much before, so I sympathize with normies on this).

   I think one other person sort of mentioned this, but I wanted to give my own thoughts on this feature idea.

11. Advanced PGP Key Management for Proton Mail Users

    Description

    Currently, Proton Mail allows users to manually add PGP public keys to external addresses only.
    
    This creates several limitations for users with more complex encryption setups or personal key hierarchies.

    ---

    Problem 1: Limited Manual Control

    Users cannot manually specify whether an email should be:

    • Signed only
      
    • Encrypted only
      
    • Signed and encrypted

    Instead, Proton Mail enforces a fixed default behavior per contact.
    
    If a user wishes to change how messages are sent, they must manually adjust the contact’s encryption settings each time.
    
    This slows down workflows and complicates secure communication.

    ---

    Problem 2: External Keys for Proton Addresses

    Some Proton users maintain their own personal PGP key pairs associated with their Proton-hosted email addresses (for example, to preserve local control or maintain a separate trust model).

    However, when receiving messages from other Proton Mail users, Proton’s system automatically forces the use of the Proton-managed encryption keys, preventing users from:

    • Assigning their external public key to that same Proton address, or
      
    • Choosing an alternative key manually for encryption/signing.

    This limitation breaks compatibility with privacy-focused setups or air-gapped key workflows.

    ---

    Problem 3: Security Tradeoff

    The only workaround — uploading the external private key to Proton — undermines the purpose of maintaining an offline or self-controlled key.
    
    Even if Proton’s storage is zero-access, this still requires trusting Proton’s infrastructure with a key that ideally should never leave local custody.

    ---

    Suggested Enhancements

    1. Manual Key Override
       
       Allow users to override key selection on a per-message basis, including:

       • “Sign only”
       • “Encrypt only”
       • “Sign and encrypt”
       • “Send plaintext”

    2. Custom Key Mapping for Proton Addresses
       
       Enable assigning an external public key to a Proton-hosted address, even when interacting with another Proton user.

    3. Per-Message Key Selection UI
       
       Add an “Advanced” or “PGP Options” dropdown when composing a message to select signing/encryption behavior or which key to use (similar to Thunderbird or GPGMail).

    ---

    Rationale

    These improvements would benefit advanced users who manage their own key infrastructure or use Proton as part of a broader privacy toolchain.
    
    They enhance flexibility and control without compromising usability or Proton’s secure defaults for non-technical users.

12. (Add option to) Display all attachments in thread and forwards without having to click on "Show"

    It is unclear in the current design that attachments are attached, which increases chances of forwarding unintentionally. This is because you have to do an additional click on a text and there are no colored icons indicating attachments.
    Please make it clearer an email contains attachments by showing them directly, for example with colored icons. (Ideally on top of the email/thread instead of below).

14. Custom button in Proton Mail for Identity and addresses

    Hello,
    It would be nice to have faster acces to option to check my Identity and addresses, instead of going to Settings - All Settings - and Identity and addresses. Maybe a custom button underneath Imbox,Drafts, Sent...
    Or better yet somewhere to be listed when you click on the upper right profile icon.
    Sometimes I can't remember what Identity and addresses I created...

15. Quick Reactions to Emails

    It would be great to have a feature similar to message reactions in chat apps, for example, being able to quickly tap an icon (like 👍 or ❤️) to react to an email without writing a full reply.

    Microsoft Outlook already includes this, and it’s great for acknowledging messages or quick feedback without having to write a full reply.

    For Proton Mail users, the reaction could appear inline (e.g., “Recipient liked this email”).
    For other email providers, Proton could send a short, automatically generated message such as:
    “[Username] reacted to your email with 👍.”

16. Add searchable unencrypted text via user input button or link

    Problem, Emails can only be searched by the subject or the fixed header info neither of which can be altered by the user on incoming mail. We all know this isnt sufficient for many searches, but also understand the end to end encryption challenges.

    Simple Solution, Id propose a single button or link on each email received or created that pops up a field where the user can type or paste in text meant to be searchable. That would be a quick fix for being able to find important emails, and of course the user would have to understand that data would not be stored encrypted any more than the subject line is now, at least not under their private key, but maybe under a proton known key so it can be searched but still reasonably secure from compromise.

    Maybe not for the uber paranoid user, but for the average person and business user not fearing a subpoena release of this content it would be a very useful feature.
    Just an easy way to quickly cut and paste a paragraph, add an account number etc. to be more quickly found later. I would use this on many more important emails that don't have reasonably descriptive and searchable subject lines.

17. Grouped Calendar Toggles

    I'd like folders for my other calendars so I can toggle them all at once.

    For example, I'd like to have a folder called "Work" under which 3 calendars reside and have one button which toggles them all on and off.

    I have multiple calendars from other people which are useful to view but otherwise clutter my calendar too much, so I often have to go and enable/disable many calendars in bulk, even though I basically want to just toggle the set of "calendars for this person/theme".
