Create Calendar event from email
How can create a Calendar entry from Mail with just one click?

This feature exists, but only works if the to: address matches a ProtonMail account.
HOWEVER, we are all switching from OTHER accounts, so most of them are forwards.
Which means this feature doesn't work, and we have to do the download thing.
Just don't check the addressee at all. Let the *user* decide whether they can add the event or not.

Need this especially for my wife on Ios to accept the switch to Proton from Google

Wow, just discovered that importing could be done by drag and drop. But this is totally not obvious. I previously had to go to settings and import manually. Just a bit of UX could make the experience way better.

This is critical for me. I don't want to have to waste time manually turning an email into a calendar entry, I should be able to do it seamlessly.
This needs to occur in all instances: web, mobile app, etc. If you get it on the Android you'll get the drop on Gmail; they still haven't enabled this ability in their Android app, you can only do it in their webmail client.
Ideally, Protonmail would recognise a 'calling notice' email and ask me if I want a calendar entry, plus it should try to populate the calendar entry itself but let me edit it.

It is already available in the Web Version, but needs to be added to Android (and probably iOS)

I have waited years to use protonmail and calendar on my iphone. Please finally make the circle complete. I still have to wait until I get to a computer to make appointments. Why? It is 2023. Google did this years ago.

Currently you have to download attached ics calendar events and then import them manually into proton calendar. It would be nice to have the option to directly add the ics to a proton calendar from the email itself removing the need to download it first then import it

I want to be able to create an entry seemlessly without having to click the narrow part of the bottom after the day is populated. A suggestion:
One Click (an entry) - Displays event/details
Double Click (anywhere in the day area) - Creates an event
Left click - Displays options to view week, jump to a specific date, or search for an event -

How is this not planned? Exporting an ics file and reimporting it in a different browser tab is ridiculous.

Exactly what Thomas said. Events added and default notification settings for events and having the ability to click event and see original email with details saves so much time.

This makes the calendar useful for working with other people. I want to click on web invites and email invites and have them go into my Proton Calendar. Got to have this soon!

The ability to create a Calendar entry directly from PMail with one click would be invaluable. Too much time is wasted cutting and pasting.

Not automatically. But the option to add could be useful.

I really need at least the unaccepted invite added to my calendar.
I have ADHD, and if I don't have a reminder that I had a calendar invite, then it's forgotten.
Since moving to proton I have missed 1 meeting and nearly missed several others.
There should at least be the option to toggle this feature on and off if others are worried about it. -

"Automatically", no.
But automatically after clicking a button to "import event to Proton Calendar" - YES! 😃 -
Breat commented
good yes and no, will be easier for us yes but that mean proton analysed our mail so not good for privacy

this should have been included by default

this seems like a no brainer to implement if you want users to come from yahoo/gmail/hotmail
