1. Integration mit n8n für Proton Mail (Workflow-Automatisierung)

   n8n (https://n8n.io) ist eine Open‑Source‑Workflow‑Automatisierungsplattform, die es erlaubt, verschiedenste Dienste miteinander zu verbinden. Eine offizielle Integration von Proton Mail, Proton Calendar und Proton Drive würde es ermöglichen, E‑Mails, Termine und Dateien in Workflows einzubinden, Anhänge automatisch in Drive zu speichern, Kalendereinträge aus E‑Mails zu erzeugen oder bestimmte Aktionen auszulösen. Dies würde die Produktivität steigern und Nutzern helfen, Proton‑Dienste flexibel in ihre bestehenden Arbeitsabläufe einzubinden.

2. Select more than 50 emails and perform bulk actions

   You've implemented "select 50 messages and perform bulk actions". Congrats!
   Now we need the same thing available for all messages. We do not want to have to build AI agents to select and delete 50 message at a time. We want to be able to delete them all in one go from the Web client, like on other platforms.
   I've seen this implemented as a 2 step action, select 50, then a checkbox shows up to allow the user to select all messages if they want to.

3. Provide a Way to Disable HTML in Emails

   Html is very present in emails from CRM software but is rarely ever present in emails sent from friends and relatives. It is unnecessary, wastes space, and presents some vulnerabilities and tracking potential. Scammers can use html to obfuscate urls for phishing attacks, and companies can use images to track opens. Can Proton add a way to either strip html from emails before it reaches my inbox, or disable the rendering of the html once it is in my inbox, or both? Or at least disable the rendering of links specifically, so that they can no longer be obfuscated? Outlook has a way to do this, and it works great, but I'd like to be able to check emails in my browser as well, without having html render there.

5. Unlimited custom‑domain forwarding for paid Proton Unlimited Mail accounts

   Unlimited custom‑domain forwarding for paid Proton Mail accounts
   Brief request
   Since switching to Proton Mail, I’ve noticed a missing feature: the ability to forward an unlimited number of addresses from my own domain (e.g., whatever@mydomain.com).
   Currently, for Proton Unlimited, each forwarding address must be one of the 15 “authorized” addresses listed in the account settings. For a paid plan this restriction feels annoying.

   Your strategy, is may be to push people to subscribe for Proton Family, which has a limit of 90 adresses e-mail/alias. But come on, you push too far.

   Detailed description
   I would like to be able to create forwarding rules for any number of addresses belonging to my domain—ideally with no hard limit, or at least well beyond the current 15‑address limit of the Unlimited plan.
   
   Typical use‑case
   My family uses our own domain for everyday communication, but we want all mail to land in our individual Proton Mail inboxes. With unlimited forwarding we could set up rules such as:
   
   
   
       wife@mydomain.com → mywife@protonmail.com
       mybeautifulwife@mydomain.com → mywife@protonmail.com
       kid1@mydomain.com → kid1@protonmail.com
       kid1.name@mydomain.com → kid1@protonmail.com
       kid2@mydomain.com → kid2@protonmail.com
       kid2.name@mydomain.com → kid2@protonmail.com
       …and so on for any additional family members or aliases.
   

   Why this matters
   This is a basic, expected capability for a paid email service that supports custom domains. Limiting forwarding to a small amount of address is a pain **********.
   I'm thinking to move away from proton because of that.

   Requested outcome
   Add an option in the Proton Mail settings that lets paid users create unlimited (or at least substantially higher) forwarding rules for any address under their custom domain.
   

   Thank you for considering this enhancement

6. Request for Bulk Deletion/Management of "Imported" Events in Proton Calendar

   I recently imported a calendar file from WebCal.Guru, which added a large number of entries (approximately a year’s worth) to my Proton Calendar. After realizing that I no longer need these entries, I tried to delete or move them in bulk but encountered the following issues:

   1. Identifying the Events:

   - I can search for these events using a common string included in each entry: “This calendar is provided by WebCal.Guru.”
   
   - However, after listing them via search, Proton Calendar does not allow selecting or managing multiple events simultaneously.
   

   1. Desired Action:

   - I would like to either delete or move all events that match this search term at once, to avoid manually handling each event individually..
   

   1. Suggested Solutions:

   - Adding a feature to allow multi-select and bulk action (delete/move) for events would be incredibly helpful, especially for handling imported or recurring events.
   
   - Capture the event of appending a calendar file to an existing calendar, and allow the option, at a future date, to remove those imported events.
   

   This would greatly improve the user experience and save significant time when managing calendar data. Thank you for considering this request, and I appreciate your work in making Proton Calendar a privacy-focused and user-friendly platform.

7. Sorting Mail filters for easy reading.

   Under Proton Mail’s filter settings, the user cannot sort the list of filters they have created, making navigation difficult. Could the team add a button to help sort the list?

9. do not use windows action centre for reminders, design persistent reminder instead

   Problem Description:
   The Windows Proton app is working as intended, but that is not good enough. The Proton app uses the Windows notification feature to relay reminders to the user, and Windows can be configured to display the reminder for up to 5 minutes, after which it disappears. But it cannot be configured to remain displayed until dismissed by the user. The reminder always disappears after a short time, and if I'm not present at my PC at that time I will never see the reminder. I have missed several very, very important reminders because of this issue. That is the problem.

   My Request:
   Do not use Windows notification feature to relay reminders to the user, instead build that functionality into the Proton Windows app and enable reminders that remain visible until manually dismissed. The Microsoft Outlook application behaves this way and that is best.

   How to Confirm Windows Behavior:  
   Windows10 > Settings > Ease of Access > Dismiss notifications after this amount of time
   Windows does not offer the option of "Display until manually Dismissed".
   The longest time they offer is 5 minutes. Windows11 is the same.

10. Allow customisation of Proton Calendar display (font etc) and other things - my top 5!

    I think it's new, I cannot find any customisation of fonts for calendar app on iOS...

    Having used CalenGoo for Google calendar, and now migrating away from Google, I can only strongly suggest to look at the depth of customisation that CalenGoo offers over even the native Google Calendar app.

    Highlights for me, not exhaustive:

    • customisation of font size, bold/italics etc., style, colour: important to allow more to show in the week and particular month view (my preferred view)
    • display time at the start of a scheduled meeting in month view, not just 5 or 6 letters
    • a proper search function (with indexing on device prior to encryption)
    • general display alterations/customisation (for example, why not allow display of "August 2025" at the top, not just "August", which could be any year...)
    • an easy copy/paste function for regularly recurring events where only date/time changes, not the content of the event

    This is only a list of my most liked highlights.

12. Decline a single instance of a recurring event from an external sender

    When an external sender invites me to a recurring event series, I would like to be able to decline single instances of that event.

    Desired MVP user experience:
    1. Person invites me to a recurring event series
    2. When I need to decline a single instance of an event, I go to that event on my calendar and set my "Attending?" status for that instance to "No, I won't attend"
    3. I am prompted whether I'd like to decline just this event, all future events, or the entire series. I select 'this event'.
    4. The single instance of the event is no longer on my calendar, and (bonus points!) the person who invited me is notified that I've declined that instance. All other events in the series are unaltered by this action.

    Current broken user experience:
    1. Person invites me to a recurring event (e.g. Weekly on Monday from 9-10am), I accept and the event is on my calendar. So far so good.
    2. Eventually I need to skip one upcoming instance of the event (e.g. the single instance on Monday October 14, 2024 from 9-10am), and want to decline the invitation for that single instance so that my calendar is accurate and to notify the person who sent the invite that I've declined that instance.
    3. I go to Proton Calendar on web (or any other platform), find the instance of the event, and try to set "Attending?" for that instance to "No, I won't attend".
    <BEGIN PROBLEM>
    4. A modal pops up that reads "Update recurring event - Would you like to change your answer for all the events in this series?" with options of "Update" or "Cancel"
    5. Neither option works; clicking "Update" declines all events in the series, and clicking "Cancel" makes no change.

    These are both not the outcome I want. I don't want to get rid of the entire series. I don't want my calendar to be inaccurate when I know I won't be attending an instance of an event, or to leave the person invited me with inaccurate information that I'll attend when I know I won't.
    <END PROBLEM>

    This is basic MVP calendar app stuff, and I'm going to have a hard time using Proton Calendar (and by extension, Proton Mail, and if not either of those then probably scrapping the full suite) much longer without it.

    Is there any hope of getting this sort of table stakes digital calendar functionality prioritized?

    If not, just say so and I'll show myself out, no need to drag this on.

    As of today, it's only possible to source attachments from:

    • my photo library
    • take new picture
    • import from...

    None of these options allows me to choose from an app on my Android mobile phone. I would for example like to source pictures from my Synology Photos app.

14. Choose which alias can log in to Proton

    Hello Outlook.com now is accepting to choose what alias can be used to login on account to improve security.

    Why Proton mail dont do the same thing? with this we are protected from botnets(credential stuffing or brute force), because we can create a alias and dont share the username with anyone.

16. Improve efficiency of viewing emails, better utilize dead space

    On the iPad, if i have a lot of unread emails, it's a lot faster to go through them efficiently in Apple Mail than in Proton Mail because of the main screen format. 1: Showing the email list on the left side (with the option to show 2-3 lines of content), and 2: showing the selected email's full content on the right hand side, allows you to quickly see each email, then delete or move on to the next email without ever having to leave the main screen.

19. Letting users rearrange the Proton Mail sidebar

    The Proton Mail sidebar can only be rearranged starting from the "Folders" section and anything after that. It would be helpful to let users move any folder/section like "Inbox", "Spam", "Trash" or any folders created in the sidebar to where the user needs it to be between the top and the bottom of the list.

    In iCloud, in Gmail and in Outlook, you can choose the order of the things in your sidebar to have what you use most often at the top and the least often at the bottom.

20. 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.
