  1. dark

    The dark theme on Drive and VPN is a nightmare: to have grey or dark purple text on a black background is ludicrous. who can read that? Maybe this works great for gamers who sit in a dark room all their lives and their eyes can distinguish between black and very dark grey but I think most people like some clearer distinction. Maybe it looks "cool", but it is impractical and annoying.
    I am really struggling to the point of thinking of cancelling my Proton subscription. We can select a lighter theme for web services why not for the desktop…

  2. Consistency with Ebony Theme

    The Ebony, Carbon, and Monokai themes are dark themes, but the i tooltip popups on the Settings pages show black text on a white popup background.
    This proposal requests a white text on a black (for Ebony) or a dark background (for Carbon and Monokai).

    Edit: To clarify, the tooltip is the i inside a circle similar to the (?) when Proton Uservoice asks you to give 1, 2, or 3 votes: "You have # votes left! (?)"
    the tooltip (?) on Proton Uservoice has the requested change to the feature (white text on black background)

  3. Width of Sidebar

    Please make the width of the sidebar customizable for the web app. If you make extensive use of folders and labels, their names get truncated, which hurts usability.

  4. Calendar and Drive icon too similar

    The calendar and drive icon are too similar, for accessibility, the tiny numbers on the Calendar icon really do not separate the overall look between the two app icons. Your Mail icon looks like an M, your first and main product but then you deviate from that style to regular icons to represent the other apps. Would it be quick and easy just to enlarge the numbers on the Calendar icon to help see the difference between the drive and calendar apps?

  5. mail.proton.me should automatically login to last accessed mailbox rather than redirect to account.proton.me/switch

    Current UI: mail.proton.me redirects to account.proton.me/switch and from there after you pick up one, it redirects to https://mail.proton.me/u/<UID>/inbox , e.g. https://mail.proton.me/u/41/inbox

    Instead: mail.proton.me should go directly to the latest accessed mailbox.

  6. Search by labels & keywords

    Since search is limited to basically only senders, recipients, subject lines, and dates I've found it the one really big issue I miss from Gmail etc. Create a freeform keyword entry field to search and maybe a pull down menu menu for often applied keywords would be handy. Also need to implement search by label.

  7. follow intended username capitalization

    It's really a silly UI change. The welcome message on the email column layout capitalizes the first letter of non-capitalized username and it really bother me.

    example:
    https://imgur.com/a/iRkuNOJ

    if the username is "username" it should great "username" not "Username".

    That's my rant sorry to bother it's a really small change please fix

  8. Move item to another vault but don't change to the current vault view

    When using the move to another vault feature, do not open the new vault to inspect the newly moved item, this is completely unnecessary and drastically slows down the process of reorganising the vaults and items within them.

    Either this or an alternative way of managing the vault that is less clunky would be better.

  9. Session Management per device

    On my iPhone and iPad, I have all 5 apps installed. Each app corresponds to one line in the session mgmt. (total 10 lines).

    If I want to revoke one, I don't know which one is associated to.

    It would be ideal to have a session per device, instead of per app.

  10. Keep Messages in Sent/Drafts by default

    This setting should be set by default because I have been using protonmail for years thinking that they never figured out how to use the sent box properly because it would never show the messages I sent and it was very frustrating. I finally found this in the settings and it does what I think a sent box should do by default

  11. Consistent in-app feedback button across all apps

    Way too many hoops to jump through to get to (external) feedback platform.

    Need an in-app (1-window) feedback mechanism.

  12. Stop hiding Contacts! And Stop Bundling Emails!

    1) Please create a CONTACTS option & place it in a permanent, visible, location at the top of the page, or in the column under New Message. It used to be visibly listed with other options. (That worked!) Now it is almost impossible to access the contacts list. We should not have to open NEW MESSAGE and HOPE that the icon appears!
    2) Please give us the option NOT to bundle incoming emails. It is cumbersome an frankly, annoying! I would much prefer to open each new email without negotiating the entire oeuvre of correspondence.

  13. Disable auto-rotate for PWAs

    the PWAS seem to have auto-rotate, for chromium based brower, this means, its gonna disrespect the systems auto-rotate feature when it is disabled..

    would be nice if I could check my mails over the PWA without it rotating non-stop, if would like this, I still could use my smart phones os auto-rotate.

  16. Link to User Voice from mobile apps

    Sometimes I have a suggestion for UserVoice when I'm on my phone, but I cannot find a link to it from my Proton phone apps. It would also help if login to UserVoice was automatic if already logged into protonmail.
