Overhaul of folders and unread email identification
I know there are similar requests in this vain, but I wanted to consolidate ways to deal with the "problem" here.
With the emphasis on aliases and the use of SimpleLogin (or similar) within Proton Mail ("PM"), for those of us that are (to a fault) uber-organized, the sidebar has become a huge list of folders to help manage all the emails from all the aliases. Filters place emails directly into the appropriate folders to be dealt with. In an overkill of organization, subfolders are used as well.
Example: a master folder might be "Travel" and general travel-related emails end…

Improve Calendar UI for more transparency
I migrated my business from M365 to Proton Business. Unfortunately, it’s not really possible to use the calendar for professional work. It would be helpful if you could change the resolution of the calendar view (e.g., hours, 30 minutes, 15 minutes). This would allow you to properly display and read appointments that last only 30 minutes.

Synchronise Proton contacts with mobile phone contacts
I think it would be really useful if you could synchronise Proton contacts from all Proton apps with the contacts on your mobile phone. And in both directions: so that I have all the contacts from my mobile phone on Proton, and all the contacts from Proton on my mobile phone. That way, I wouldn’t have to back up my contacts to iCloud, for example, and could back them up securely in Proton. But at the same time, I’d still have the contacts stored locally on my mobile phone so that I could easily use them for all messaging apps…

Make swiping more fluid, just like in the old Proton Mail app on iOS
In the old version of the Proton Mail app on iOS, you could easily swipe a message to delete it. Now, when you want to delete a message by a quick swipe, it stops and shows you the bin icon. Only when swiping again, or clicking the bin icon, it deletes. This is not as intuitive and by far not as satisfying.

Minimal FCM notification payloads on Android
I’d like to suggest a privacy-related feature for Proton Mail on Android regarding push notifications via Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM).
While I understand FCM is required for timely notifications and message content remains end-to-end encrypted, notification payloads are still visible to Google’s infrastructure. Currently, these payloads may include metadata such as sender or subject, even when Android system settings hide notification content.
Feature request:
Please consider adding an app-level setting that lets users choose how much information is included in FCM notification payloads, for example:Full notification (current behavior)
Minimal notification (“You have a new message,” no sender/subject/metadata)
(Optional) Silent…5 votes -
Allow text formatting in emails on the phone app
There are no options for formatting text in emails I'm writing in the phone app version of Proton Mail. This is crazy. How is this not a thing? My top asks are: bold, italic, underline, different font colors and highlights, bullets and numbering.

Automatically prompt to file sent emails
Automatically prompt to file sent emails. It would be very useful to be able to file sent emails as they are sent. An option to prompt sent emails as they go would help keep important emails received and sent in the same place.

Enable contact group membership even without an e-mail
Groups are useful as sets of contacts even though they may not have [yet] an e-mail address. Currently it is not possible to add a contact to a group if they don't have an address, so I use fake e-mail addresses for those, but this is not very consistent...

Bridge: Don’t Terminate Connection When Quitting App
When using CMD+Q with the macOS Proton Bridge app this also terminates the connection. In my opinion the connection should stay alive (sometimes you accidentally close the app window with CMD+Q instead of CMD+W) or at least it should warn you with a message.

Sharing calendar with non proton users to show a webpage and not to download a .ics
Hey, is this the year 2010 ? Because when I share a calendar and it gives me a link, I'd expect that this links shows the Proton Calendar webapp with my calendar in it. And I can then say if this link is viewer or editor. I don't know, like Google Docs, Proton Docs, Proton Sheets and oh everyone ??
Seriously how is Proton still in the Stone Age where they thought it was an okay thing to have a share link that was a mere « download a .ics » link ??? That freaking baffles me. Proton, get your…

Add a 1 button apply all Filters to existing emails somewhere on the main page.
When creating filters for the first time, you have to either go to the settings menu to create and run them or you have to click the check box of an email > click the move the folder icon > select the folder > select 'Always Move sender's emails'. To apply that filter to past messages, you still have to go into filter settings, and run that 1 filter against the entire inbox.
If someone has a mailbox that they've never organized, this adds a lot of unnecessary back and forth between the Inbox to select an email and create…

Show warning when link text doesn't match destination
I recently sent some emails where I accidentally had a mismatch between link text and the destination itself.
One was where an email link didn't match its target:
alice@example.com (points to: bob@example.com)
I also had another email where the URL was slightly different from what was displayed:
example.com/profile/alice (points to: https://example.com/profile/bob)
I would blame myself for these mistakes, but the hover tooltip shows link text instead of the actual destination, giving a false sense of safety. The fix could be as simple as showing the destination in the tooltip, or adding a confirmation before sending when there's a…

label custom sort
I accidentally pressed the "sort" button for labels and now they are sorted alphabetically. There is no way to undo this...
I would prefer if I could sort by most recent label.
For example I have labels for travels trips. Italy 2023, Italy 2024 etc. but they show up very far down because of alphabetically. Also only the most recent one is important and needs to be accessible.

Assign emails tasks with priority
Being able to make an email a task with a certain given priority would be extremely helpful in organizing emails. And then being able to sort those emails according to their task priority, so that the emails with the highest priority appear on top. I use it every day in Outlook. Proton should offer it too.

Always On "Unread" Filter
Hello,
I have rules set up to move incoming emails to different folders.
The ‘unread’ filter on iOS used to stay active in your version 6 (I think).
I’d switch from the inbox to other folders and the ‘unread’ emails would still be there.Since version 7, I have to manually reactivate the filter every time I switch between folders or return to the inbox.
The user experience is rather poor.Would it be possible to restore the ‘unread’ filter so that it remains active when switching between folders?
Thank you in advance for considering this.

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…

Using a different signature for desktop and mobile
When sending emails from a phone, typos happen and brevity becomes a way of avoiding stress. From Thunderbird, I use these two limitations to give a dash of friendliness to my short emails, and add a line that say something like "This email was sent from a mobile device, sorry for brevity and tpyoes", with that final typo made on purpose.
But I can't do this because the signature is shared between desktop app and mobile phone.
I understand that this feature would take 2 months of programming, but hey, if enough people have the same idea maybe we can…

Duplicate email detection
Duplicate detection during Easy Switch from Gmail is not perfect and sometimes duplicate copies of imported emails remain, eating up space. It would be great to have an option to detect and remove them later.

Improve search to allow multiple filters
The current search is very limited. I want to find all emails with a specific label in the Inbox. In the search, I can select Inbox and a label, but I can only choose one.
I have 40k emails with this label in the archive, and 1,000 emails in the Inbox, some of which have the same label. How am I supposed to search for just the ones in the Inbox? Please improve the search to allow combining multiple filters.
