Allow proton meet to connect with zoom/google meet users
When using proton meet, allow the app to connect with zoom/google meet and vice versa. This would allow interoperability with these users.

Utilize the Privacy Pass protocol
https://blog.kagi.com/kagi-privacy-pass
https://www.privacyguides.org/articles/2025/04/21/privacy-pass/
Privacy Pass is a protocol that allows people to cryptographically prove they have access to a service without revealing who they are. I think Proton could be able to use this in really cool ways, for example to prevent Proton from correlating Proton VPN activity to users, or to use SimpleLogin aliases without Proton being able to correlate the alias from the original email.10 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.

Single Linux yum repo for all Proton apps
Right now the Proton VPN can be installed from a Linux yum repo. For example: https://repo.protonvpn.com/fedora-42-stable/
This is great, because to update it, all I have to do is run "sudo dnf update", and if there is a new version of Proton VPN available, it gets updated.However, all the other Proton Linux apps (Pass, Authenticator, and the Mail beta) get installed by individual rpm downloads. Which means, if I want to update them, I have to download each rpm individually and re-install it to get the upgrade.
There should be one single yum repo for ALL proton apps, so…

More Privacy and Security with emails
I think that there is way Proton could be the best encrypted and private platform (never mind that any email sent from a non non-Proton account will not be E2EE and can still be read by third parts because it is stored on non-Proton servers). When a Proton user receives a non-E2EE email, say from a Gmail user, Proton must decrypt that email and have access to it in primary memory in plaintext. If Proton's servers are compromised and suffer from zombie memory attacks (even a trusted execution environment (TEE) running cubes OS would not be safe from this kind…

Let users choose which emails trigger notifications (by sender, recipient/alias , label, or folder)
User story:
As a Proton Mail user, I want to CONTROL WHICH EMAILS TRIGGER PUSH NOTIFICATIONS so that I’m only alerted about messages that require my immediate attention.
I want to enable notifications only for certain senders, recipients/aliases, labels, or folders, so I don’t get distracted by unimportant emails.
I also want the option to REVERSE this logic—receiving notifications only for emails that aren’t labelled or sorted, such as personal or unexpected messages.
Ultimately, a filter system for notifications, giving users the same flexibility they already have for organising their inboxes.
This would make notifications more relevant, REDUCE NOISE, and…

Add a "Proton Docs" category to the forum
Currently, Proton Docs lacks a dedicated category on this forum. This forces users to post Proton Docs feedback in the "General Ideas" forum, which could potentially slow down the app’s development. Therefore, I formally request that a dedicated category for Proton Docs be added to the forum. Thank you for your attention and your valuable time.

A “My personal contact” app
I really would all my contacts being not visible for Google, What’s app, Microsoft, Apple and many more. Yes the can get them but they are all not readable like our protonmails. So an app just for all contact info both from my mobile phone and mail address. Looking forward to hear about such an app. And last but not least thanks for all the other Proton apps. Jan

Video Chats
Launch a Video Chat Room similar to Zoom, Meet, and others. But unlike others, Proton can apply the best encryption and security.

Lock Session Functionality
When using Proton Mail on a laptop, it’s often convenient to keep the session open to avoid re-entering the password and 2FA code every time. However, this can become a security concern, especially on shared or work computers.
I propose introducing a “Lock Session” feature, a temporary lock that can be unlocked using a quick PIN (similar to Proton VPN). This would allow users to secure their active session without having to go through the full login process again.

Add an "App Switcher" to desktop version, like browser versions of your services/apps.
Would like to see an "App Switcher" like you have available on your browser versions of your services for my desktop as an option to move between available services/apps.

Make Duo/Family true shared plans
The idea is simple – allow for shared email addresses within Duo/Family plans, which anyone in the family group can access. Allow for true shared documents/folders in Drive, that anyone who they are shared with has equal access – at the moment, shared folders cannot be accessed through Finder (macOS), nor made available offline. To attach a file from a shared folder, the sharee must first download it from the web app, which makes a mockery of using cloud storage in the first place.
It seems that Duo/Family is really just a pricing tool, not a shared family group in…

Emergency access - read-only, customizing what they can see/access
1) https://proton.me/blog/emergency-access nor https://proton.me/support/emergency-access explains if emergency contact can change account password/key which they have accessed (taking over account). It does not explain any other protections.
2) Also the account owner should be able to limit emergency user access to read-only, maybe just for a limited time like 1-2 years, during which owner has ability to reset the emergency user access and they have to request again.
3) Owner should be able to limit access only to some services, like for example Drive or even certain folder of a Drive or Mail. This possibility I have not seen announced in…

Inactive account policy - keep account when deleting data
Hello proton team
I have a new suggestion regarding the inactive account policy. Instead of permanently deleting a user's account if they haven't logged in for a year, I propose an alternative approach.
The idea is to delete their data while keeping the account itself, which would minimize costs for Proton. In the event that the user logs in again at a later time, they would login to an empty account (like if they just created it), but at least they won't lose their email address.
A lot of users keep a protonmail account as a recovery email for other…
