Gmail connection — option to disable forwarding while keeping send-as, or exclude messages forwarded from Proton
The new Easy Switch Gmail connection (May 2026) bundles two features together: forwarding all incoming Gmail into Proton, and the ability to send/reply from the Gmail address inside Proton Mail. Please make these independently toggleable, or let the forwarding skip certain messages.
My use case: Proton is my primary mailbox, and I keep a Gmail account as a searchable backup archive. A Proton filter forwards everything I recieve that's not from my own gmail to my Gmail. I like the new feature to be able to reply from the Gmail address without leaving Proton.
The problem: the Gmail connection's forwarding…

Separate second passwords per service
Right now there’s a second password for the email account. Can we set a different second password per service and choose whether to use it or not?
The issue is that when I log into Drive or Authenticator, they ask for the email’s second password — which isn’t secure. I set that second password specifically for email, so that if I enter my password in another service, nobody could use it to access my mailbox.
For example, I don’t need a second password for Authenticator or VPN. Sometimes I log into my VPN at my parents’ place, and I don’t…

Publish Android apps to Zapstore (Nostr based app store)
Would be nice to see Proton publish their apps directly to the Nostr based Zapstore (https://zapstore.dev/). It would allow for all the apps to be published on the store, currently there are just the ones released on github.
It's great for people who want to use GrapheneOS. It would allow for quick publishing of beta apps as there is no cumbersome and long app review process.
Currently the apps that are available on github are on zapstore. It would be nice to see Proton use their current Nostr account to officially sign and release the apps on the…

Freeform + Standard Notes = Proton Notes
Proton acquired Standard Notes but has yet to integrate it into Proton's Office Suite both technically and subscription-wise. Also, Apple released the Freeform app a few years ago which is honestly the best hand-writing program ever released on a tablet.
If Proton is planning on upgrading and integrating Standard Notes into the Proton Drive suite, it should also include a handwriting feature similar to Apple's Freeform so people can handwrite their notes or draw on their tablets (within an encrypted space of course).
Also include a dark mode because Freeform doesn't have this yet and the bright light of the…

Newsletters Disable Option
Please allow subscribers to disable Proton's annoying "Newletters" function. There is no reason for Proton to categorize emails in this manner unless you guys are keeping track of the types of emails people get and selling that info to marketers. It's invasive and akin to snooping on your part. If I needed an annoying "email categorizing" function, I would use gmail.

Allow to test recovery phrase
I suggest that users can test if they saved the recovery phrase correctly. (Currently, the only option is to create a new phrase.)
Two cases where this might be helpful come to my mind:
- To check if a recovery phrase written down years ago is still the correct one. (I write recovery phrases on a paper and then usually never need them. After some years it is easily possible that paper notes get mixed up or that one is not sure about a certain character)
- To test the written down phrase immediately after creating and writing down a new one.…

A Proton extension that monitors Gmail.
A Proton extension that monitor Gmail—I’d prefer to use my Proton email for everything, but I’m still heavily reliant on my Gmail for things where I’ve forgotten whether I linked them.

Privacy-first local media compression & conversion tool (Photos & Videos)
I would like to propose a privacy-first media compression and conversion tool that runs entirely on local devices (PC and smartphones), without uploading any photos or videos to external servers.
Description:
This application would allow users to safely compress and convert images and videos directly on their own devices.
By leveraging human visual perception–aware compression methods, media files can be significantly reduced in size while preserving visual quality and original resolution (pixel dimensions).Users could optionally convert media into next-generation formats such as AVIF, JPEG XL, or AV1, choosing between compatibility-focused or efficiency-focused options.
All processing would be performed locally,…6 votes -
Shared Android Account Authentication Across Proton Apps
Implement unified account authentication across Proton's Android apps, similar to Google and Yandex ecosystems. Once a user signs in to one Proton app, that account should be available for other Proton apps on the same device without requiring repeated manual login.
Description:
Currently, Proton apps on Android require separate sign-in for each app, even when the user is logging into the same Proton account. This creates unnecessary friction. If a user is already authenticated in Proton Mail, apps like Proton VPN or Proton Pass should be able to detect and reuse that existing account session instead of asking for login…4 votes -

Idrive / backblaze alternative
As a proton user I want a reliable encrypted automated cloud backup solution that offers versioning of files and folders (and possibly a complete image) of my personally device (e.g. MacBook) so that I have a reliable and secure offsite disaster recovery option and ability to restore accidentally deleted files or recover from ransomeware.
The reality for home users there are really only 3 options (none of which are any good): carbonite, Backblaze and Idrive. Proton drive is nice but it is a sync solution and not true disaster recovery solution. It also does not necessarily offer enough storage.so it…

Simply copy all functionalities from Google Workspace while preserving privacy. The way their tools work smoothly and are interconnected is inspiring. Companies need a fully integrated ecosystem, and GWS achieves this perfectly. If you want to be their competitor, just adopt those functionalities.

Add filtering and sorting options to protonapps.com
As the number of Proton services and platforms increases, protonapps.com becomes more difficult to navigate. It’d be useful to have some filtering and sorting options for protonapps.com to quickly find the right app for the desired platform. For example:
Platform Filter: Android (APK, F-Droid, Play Store, etc), iOS/iPadOS, Linux, macOS, Onion/Tor, Web, Windows
App Filter: Authenticator, Calendar, Docs, Drive, Lumo, Mail, Meet, Pass, VPN, Wallet, etc
Version Filter: Production, Beta
Sort By: App Name, Platform, Recently Updated
