  1. please answer my questions - bitte meine fragen bewantworten

    Hello

    1.) How can I forward my emails from Hotmail to Proton? Unfortunately, I can only find one option here: From Gmail to Proton. Please help me with this.

    2.) Proton advertises end-to-end encryption

    Our end-to-end encryption and zero-access encryption means that no >one (not even Proton) has the technical means to access your data >without your permission.

    I wanted to import my emails, contacts and calendars with Easy Switch. Unfortunately, I am asked to give Proton access to everything:

    Proton Easy Switch needs your consent to:

  3. Option to collapse sidebar (mutual exclusive)

    Proposal:
    Make the sidebar of the web view manually collapsable.

    Details:
    This proposal is only about the function collapsing sidebar itself. This proposal is not about how this feature would be implemented on the UI.

    Related Threads:

    [1] Option to collapse sidebar
    Link: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/945460-general-ideas/suggestions/48123095-option-to-collapse-sidebar
    Note: The idea of collapsing is the same. However the author did also mention a concrete UI implementation in his idea, which might make voting difficult.

  4. Rethink customer support

    Every time I submit a request for customer support, I get a response that misses the point, is vague and phrased in irritating corporate-speak. It seems to me that you are using some half-baked AI or some really stupid and/or over-managed people.

  5. Yubikey support without authenticator app

    Please add yubikey support on all products?

    Individual passwords per product would be a good feature.

    Please remove authenticator app dependency or release a proton authenticator app.

    And please lose the Google integration completely!!! Most of us use proton to get rid of Google.

  6. Update an info page from 2022

    This page...

    was last updated 18 months ago and I think is...

    A. Now wrong ?

    B. No really helpful in the way it is worded.

    The idea of such a page is to guide you from where you are (it does not mention this? e.g in the web interface) to where you want to be (it does not either give a useful link OR the "steps" you need to take (or what would be useful) a LINK.

    In fact the way to the "Request a Feature" is found by clicking on you name top-right and looking down the…

  7. Privacy focused git repository for open source Proton development

    Replace Proton GitHub repositories with a more privacy focused alternative, like Codeberg or a Proton hosted Gitlab.
    GitHub is less and less user and privacy-friendly, as they do not tolerate aliased addresses, like those from Proton/SimpleLogin (!).
    Also, things like AI training clearly make a respecting git repository for the development of Proton apps even more attractive.

  8. Allow VPN auto connect to be turned off

    Proton VPN on an iPhone will not allow auto connect to be turned off. The only way to stop using the VPN is to uninstall Proton VPN. There are times when connected to a network that does not have internet access, there is a need to turn off the Proton VPN. I have also had problems when using the hot spot on my iPhone that I need the VPN turned off. For example when using the hot spot to allow my laptop to connect to a corporate VPN.

  10. Don't obscure date/time when hovering over message

    Please don't obscure the date/time of receipt when hovering over a message in the inbox. At the moment, hovering over a message brings up the open, trash, archive, and snooze buttons, obscuring the date and time the message was received. Just add those buttons next to that info.

    Thanks!

  11. Inactivity Protection Mechanism

    With the recent updated inactive account policy implemented (https://proton.me/support/inactive-accounts), I'd like to suggest the idea for Proton accounts to have an inactivity protection mechanism.

    What is an Inactivity Protection Mechanism?

    An inactivity protection mechanism is a system that automatically triggers a predetermined action when a user fails to engage with their email account within a specified timeframe. This feature would ensure that if a user becomes unavailable or incapacitated, their email account can be secured and protected from unauthorized access.

    How it could work

    1. Users opt-in to enable the inactivity protection mechanism for their email account.
    2. The user…

  12. Configure if mail or calendar desktop app opens first

    It would be nice to choose, if you wanna start Mail or Calendar in the new Windows App. Much better would be to have a separate shortcut for each of them.

  13. Improve UI when deleting messages

    Currently, when you delete a message there's a popup near the bottom of the screen that offers an undo option. This is difficult to react to and use if you delete a message by mistake, especially if you're deleting several messages and there are several identical popups on the screen concurrently.

    Suggestion: when you click the delete icon on a message, change it to an undo icon. Do not remove the message from the list for a few seconds.

  14. 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…

  15. 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)

  16. 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?

  17. 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.

  18. 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

  19. 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.

  20. 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.
