How can we improve Proton?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

  1. 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.

  2. Extra password \ PIN requirement when editing anything in the "Recovery" and "Security and Privacy" tabs.

    I'm just in general paranoid about security after my previous gmail account was compromised.
    I feel like the recovery and security tabs are most vulnerable. If users could make a custom pin or password that is different from the standard email password or mailbox password. I would feel more comfortable, I wouldn't want someone to somehow gain access to my inbox then change the recovery or password \ phone number etc or delete \ remove the recovery keys.

    I also feel a bit at unease with the app, because the app does not give an option to change a password,…

  3. E-mail Conversations Borked

    E-mail threads, or conversations, aren't quite working across the board. For instance, when I used Fastmail, the system recognized correctly the e-mails coming from the same "source" and group them together.

    This is not happening correctly in Proton. For instance, some e-mails from LinkedIn are grouped when they arrive on different dates. A similar situation happens for GitHub: when the messages for a given pull request arrive, they aren't grouped together, as if they were from different topics.

  4. Compose should display From name along with the e-mail address as well

    Currently, when multiple aliases are defined, the Compose panel/window only displays the e-mail address. Since the From name could be different for every alias, it would be better to display this as well.

    Same for replies and everything that's related.

  5. Consistent PIN input methods

    Android. Currently, there are three different ways PIN numbers are handled in the apps:
    1) System PIN (E.161 input) - Drive, SimpleLogin
    2) User-defined PIN (E.161 input) - Pass
    3) User-defined PIN (Numeric keypad) - Mail

    I would prefer all apps to use the same input method. My preference is option 2) as I prefer to "spell" my PIN rather than remember a sequence of digits, and also allow different PINs for different apps.

  8. Implement Proton's new CAPTCHA on the forums.

    Because the post and reply functions only need a generic login with a term agreement checkbox to login, the Proton feedback spaces are filled with spa. This is a little ironic given the new CAPTCHA you've just pioneered.

    Save everyone a bit of heartache and show how incredible it is by implementing it right here!

  12. paid version

    I would like to have an option for Proton Semi-Premium packet, a low cost version, an economic plan, with a lower price, affordable for everyone.
    Please take in consideration this suggestion and create a plan with a cost of 2-3-4 euro per month.
    I am sure that tens of thousands will choose this kind of paid version
    Thanks.

  13. Add an option to revert the recent colorscheme changes (approx. sep 13 2023)

    The change in having the proton purple removed from the top bar, and changed to white, does not look as good as it did originally.

  14. Publish all Android APK to FDroid

  15. 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.

  18. Pop-up from performing actions shouldn't block upcoming emails

    It is frustrating when deleting emails the "Conversation moved to Trash" bar covers further emails. Can that bar appear above and not block the
    upcoming emails. That would be smoother. Thanks

  19. Use ProtonDrive to circumvent email size limits

    Other people aren't interested in shrinking the size of attachments to accommodate protonmail's 25Mb size limit. Instead of refusing to send larger attachments to me, could you (protonmail) post them on my proton drive and then send a link?
