Add details to Email event reminders
Please add the actual name of the event and its details to the email notification.
I was excited to have the email notification option added, which was the last thing keeping me from switching completely from Google. However, the email notifications themselves are disappointing, as they don't even say what the event is, so I have to open my calendar separately to see. I keep the notifications in my email as a reminder and delete them when I'm done, and I need to know what the actual reminder is for without having to open the calendar.
Work on this feature request is underway, starting with iOS.
🗓️ A new calendar invite widget shows the main event info in all emails that contain event invites. Tapping on it takes you to the #ProtonCalendar app directly from your inbox.

Proton Calendar email notifications should contain more useful event details, it is a bit strange to get a notification that doesn't tell you much.

Don't leave us in the dark with email reminders of our events. I want to know what is coming up just by glancing at the email subject

Please don't show "days" (i.e. Wednesday, Thursday) in the email view. I need actual "dates". At least give the option to change the view to show only dates.

This is for me a big miss and would love to see this in the near future as well

Without the event title, the present email messages are highly unpleasant.https://laptopwise.com/best-microsoft-surface-laptops-to-buy/ Email reminders are meant to remind me, not to leave me in the dark.

When I have an event in Proton Calendar and I have email notifications setup, the email notifications only tell me there is an event occurring on some date, the email notification doesn't include any details about the event. This means I have to open up Proton Calendar and review what the event is, which defeats the purpose of notifications in the first place. I would like the email notifications to include the event title at least. Just had one come in this morning and it just says I have an event in a few weeks, and I setup the notifications so I can address the event well ahead of time and don't forget. Overall big fan of Proton and all your services! Been slowly moving out of Google over to you all and been very happy!

Three up-vote here, This is sort of a common sense and an easy to fix one to have the title of the event in the subject of email.
Not sure why we are still discussing it -

A user should not have to open the calendar to see the event title!

I use email calendar notifications like a task list, so events hit my PM inbox. Once I complete the task, I archive the email clearing it from my inbox. I sort my inbox by "unread emails" so inbox 0 = all my tasks are done. Yay!
The problem is right now email notifications give very few details when viewed in the inbox, unless you open the email. All you can see is date/time.
I would love to see the name of the event without having to open the email so I can quickly get an idea of what needs to be done without opening the email. I would never need to open the email at all, as long as I can see the name of the event.
Thanks!

This is a critical feature and is preventing me from fully transitioning to Proton Calendar.

This is a critical change needed, along with https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932842-proton-calendar/suggestions/42005188--search-option-in-proton-calendar, in my opinion. Once these two issues are resolved, I will consider using Proton Calendar as my primary calendar. Until then, sadly I cannot. :(

When receiving a notification email from ProtonCalendar all it provides is the time and date, is not possible to know what the event is about until the link inside the body of the message is clicked, at least in the body of the message the name of the event, and maybe also the description of that event would save the user to open ProtonCalendar only to check what is the event about

The emails just mention that there's an event coming up and the body of the email has a link to the event. Reminders like these are useless.
I know that proton is all about secrecy and privacy, but for those of us who aren't spies or political dissidents it would be great to at least have the option of having actually useful information included in the emails.

Email notifications for calendar events were the feature I was always hoping for, but the text of the notification doesn't seem to mention what the event is about. If it could have that text near the beginning it would be much more helpful I think, without having to open the notification to read the whole thing. Thanks!

Yes, please!

The current email notifications are very annoying without the title of the event. The whole point of email reminder is to remind me, not to leave me guessing.

event title does not show up anywhere in Proton Mail iOS app or in Mac Mail. That would be a super great addition.

I actually submitted a new suggestion for probably the same thing:
Though I precised it is the title of the email that lack information. The content of the email is, as of today, quite complete.
Like Stephen Brown mentioned, "The Calendar Email Notification Subject Line should reflect the Calendar Event Title line".
