Add UserVoice link in all GitHub repositories for easy finding
Just a minor improvement by adding the UserVoice.com URL to the description of repos in GitHub along with an appropriate message to lead users to this platform. Some users will find the Proton GitHub, but not know about the UserVoice, and end up adding email support requests instead, particularly since "Issues" GitHub page isn't public or doesn't exist. This is an easy semi-fix for support requests overload.

Local writing assistant option to use local Ollama server, when available
The built in writing assistant (offline version) is a little … stupid … to say the least. It seems to completely disregard the input language as well, opting to rewrite the entire thing in English.
I wanted to propose that you leave the feature set as is for people who aren't setup with alternatives, but add another option so that we can use our own Ollama server within our network, if available.
I run a variety of llama models locally anyways, so might as well use that (and the http API it provides), opposed to having yet another assistant bundled…

Regional price for the Student Discount
It would be great if Proton added regional pricing to the student discount. By adjusting the cost based on the local cost of living, the plan would become much more affordable for students in different countries.
In Brazil, for example, paying R$319 for an annual Unlimited plan is quite expensive for most students.4 votes -
Need a different "Login Detected" notification icon. The current icon is the "mail" icon.
When I get a new login detected notification on my phone it displays the email icon. I think it's a new message so ignore it. When in fact it's someone trying to login to my account and I need to do something. Can you change the icon so it's something else so I know it's a Proton Official Notification and I need to pay attention.

Title Use Proton Custom Items as an encrypted bookmark manager Category Feature request Description Proton already provides Proton Custom
Title
Use Proton Custom Items as an encrypted bookmark managerCategory
Feature requestDescription
Proton already provides Proton Custom Items, a zero‑access‑encrypted database that lets users define arbitrary fields, filter, sort, and share rows. By creating a simple schema (Title, URL, Tags, Notes, Added Date, Last Visited) users can build a fully searchable, encrypted bookmark collection that syncs across web, iOS, Android, and desktop.
Why this works today
All data is encrypted end‑to‑end, matching Proton’s privacy guarantees.
Structured fields enable fast lookup (e.g., “show me all bookmarks tagged privacy added last month”).
Lumo can be used to add, retrieve, or query bookmarks via natural‑language prompts.

Allow importing multiple events into Proton Calendar from .ics attachments in Proton Mail
Currently, if we have an .ics attachment with a single event in a Proton mail email, we are able to import that into Proton Calendar.
However, .ics attachments that contain multiple events are not yet supported, and show this message: "This ICS file contains more than one event. Please download it and import the events in Proton Calendar". This introduces a fair amount of friction.I get these quite a lot as I often book train journeys where both the outbound and return journeys are sent to me as two calendar events within one ICS attachment.
Please change the Proton…

Setup custom duration instead of the default 30s for 2FA
I'd like to generate 2FA code using a different time span.
It's particularly useful when using other algorithms than the standard one.4 votes -
Reduce # of clicks to move a message
Hi there! When I highlight a message and click the "Move" option, a list of folders is presented, requiring a second click on the chosen folder and a third click on the Move button.
It would be faster to double-click the appropriate folder in order to move the message. Alternatively, as you type in the filter box, when the correct folder name is displayed, allow the user to hit the Enter key to move the item to the displayed folder.
It takes a cursor move + 2 extra clicks to move an item to the desired folder. Having used Gmail…

Calendar Events Notification. A Daily Mystery
What would be actually useful would be to see the actual "event" title in the email notification subject, rather than the mysterious and cryptic "Reminder: event starting on..." especialy when you have 10 of these turn up in a row.

Rename mobile apps
The current apps on Android all have the prefix "Proton <App>". Personally, I'm not a fan. My app drawer has all apps under the letter P and it doesn't matter what function the app has. I would expect Drive under D, Mail under M, Calender under C etc.
I would like the apps to be renamed to e.g. "Drive by Proton", translated to each language so the apps show up where the other apps with the corresponding function are.

Reduce Proton Mail Memory Usage

More granular access controls for Family/Organization plans
I would love to see more fine-grained access controls in the Family and Organization management dashboard.
Right now, the admin can only enable or disable certain features for the whole group, but it would be extremely helpful to assign specific permissions or benefits to individual members. For example, instead of just restricting the entire Family/Organization account from using a certain feature, the admin could decide who has access to which subscription benefits (e.g., VPN, Drive storage, Mail features, etc.).
This would make the Family/Organization plans much more flexible and customizable, and it would ensure that every member gets the right…

Bad Proton platform interaction with ICS email attachments
Proton Mail often fails to present UI controls to accept/decline calendar events.
This happens for about 10% of ICS attachments, depending on the service that generates the event data.
The Proton Calendar website permits these attachment files to be uploaded and accepted.
The Proton Calendar mobile app, such as for iOS/iPadOS, fails to support ICS file uploads.
This causes unnecessary friction for mobile users.
Please fix the mobile Proton Mail and Proton Calendar apps to handle the very same ICS data as the Proton Calendar website.

"That idea has been deleted" - censorship without cause
Why create a user forum only to censor its ideas?
If it's obscene or totally irrelevant: yes, clear the spam.
If it is a legitimate idea, don't wipe it: decline it with brief explanation.This is a shocking find that dishonors proton integrity.

A request to help with UserVoice moderation, cleaning up spam and unresolved ideas
Hello,
This is a feature request for better management of this platform for more direct feature requests. I have been a long-time user and have been actively engaged on this platform, particularly in documenting the various inconsistencies and spam that have been an issue.
I believe I have a clear understanding of the platform's shortcomings, as shown in my report, and would be willing to assist in the following ways:
- Flagging Spam and Irrelevant Content: I can help actively flag and report the off-topic and irrelevant posts that have been appearing.
- Documenting Inconsistencies: I am happy to share the document…
