Limited email groups for family plan with a custom domain
Currently, no email groups (distribution lists) are supported for non-business plans, even with a custom domain where such lists wouldn't interfere with your wider namespaces. There are real, family oriented use cases for such lists that I think Proton should support, particularly because I've lost them when migrating from Google. The two examples I personally care about:
One small distribution list for my wife and me - we use this email address when creating accounts on web sites where emails might be time sensitive and important, such as banking. There are literally only two recipients.
For many years, each of…

Webinar
The possibility to host webinars for a lot of people (like zoom, webinaris, google meet, teams, etc.) but where users (webinar viewers) don't have to have an account to join, end to end encrypted, with the possibility to record, send the recording to viewers, maybe subtitles, etc.

Official Flatpak support on Linux
Flatpak is a modern packaging format for Linux distributions, with the advantages of:
- working consistently across a wide array of distributions (thus making it much easier for developers to support any Linux distro)
- relative independence from the underlying system, making it the only distribution channel for immutable distros like Fedora Silverblue and Steam OS
- higher security due to its sandboxingAs such, it'd be great if it was officially supported by Proton for all its native applications.
It's true that the sandbox could potentially pose some limits to the app that might not be solvable via portals…

Transparent Design
Not exactly a feature, but I would love to see the Proton apps in a kind of transparent design philosophy. On the website, there are pictures of, for example Proton Mail, where messages are highlighted in transparent and a bit see through. There are so many examples of it on the other apps too, on the website and the pictures of those Proton Products. I think it would be great, if the UI matches those transparent elements, like they’re on the website!
PS: Great work you guys do, love your products!2 votes -
Increased view density option
Coming from Gmail, I am used to having three options for display density- Default, Comfortable and Compact. In Proton, the compact option still leaves too much space both in the LH folder/tag pane, and in the email listing. I suggest adding another density option. Since Compact is already used, the choice of Default may need to be added and then increase the density on the two existing options.

Referral section with the link - Does not provide any information about my privacy or email address customization
https://account.proton.me/u/30/mail/referral does not provide any assurance about my data shared with the referred user, for example i do not want referred user know my name or email address. If email is revealed to a referred user, then I would like to be able to customize which email address of mine they would see.
I can not find any privacy details of the referral program at https://proton.me/support/referral-program
Btw. https://lumo.proton.me thinks that my primary email address is shared with the referred user. Ask:
"When using Proton referral program, is my email address shared with the referred user? Can i customize which of…3 votes -
Postfix configuration guide
A step by step guide for using SMTP tokens with Postfix relay. Some services in my home network can't use the settings provided with the tokens. But they can use a relay. I would prefer to use Proton for this instead of limited free services.

All day events glitch
Proton Calendar no longer reliably displays all day events in the iOS native app.
As a workaround for this dire bug, use any other calendar platform (Apple, Google, Microsoft).

Proton Drive confirmation prompt text below screen borders
There's a glitch in Proton Drive. What I infer is a confirmation prompt, shows only the merest portion of the upper segment of a tooltip balloon shape, but NO text, when I try to delete files.
Tapping on the poorly rendered element results in the file being deleted. Tapping elsewhere on the screen does not delete the file.
This happens in the iPadOS Proton Drive native app. Using an Apple external tablet keyboard attached, in case that matters.

Make ProtonVPN a decentralized VPN (dVPN), Nym-style.
Hello
Today I read a super interesting article from Clubic on NymVPN (https://nym.com/):
https://www.clubic.com/avis-561987-avis-nymvpn-un-vpn-decentralise-qui-bouscule-les-standards-du-marche.htmlTo sum up, it's a collaborative VPN.
Short version:
Users pay Nym, in an untraceable way (see article).
They can also offer a VPN server to the Nym network.
Nym pays these users.Long version:
1. NymVPN works without a central server: your connection is sent through several independent computers that mix and encrypt your data to prevent any correlation between you and your traffic.The operators of these nodes deposit NYM tokens as collateral and receive tokens as a reward based on the quality…

Check if Uservoice user has access to linked ideas
To me it does not seem to make sense to receive an email from you stating "Proton hat eine Idee, der Sie folgen, mit einer ähnlichen kombiniert" with one link to my own idea and another link to an older idea by someone else. Why? Well after logging in, the response was that I do not have access to any of the two sections :S

Remove 30 day limit
The 30 day limit to unlock additional storage and other features is unnecessary and makes a switch from other services unnecessarily difficult as it puts pressure on the consumer to immediately use every part of Proton. Not only that, Proton advertises with free features such as 5GB storage but fails to mention from the get go that you need to unlock them within 30 days or you will never get them. Unless you try out every service right away, you won't know that you will lose a few features if you're not fast enough. I don't know if this is…

New datacenter locations
Using Proton mail if you live far from Europe is quite slow due to high latency as all servers are located in Europe.
Please deploy new data centers outside Europe for lower latency for users farther away from Europe.
Two obvious locations that would make sense would be the US (to cover the Americas) and Japan (to cover east Asia and Oceania).5 votes -
Document Translate
Merhaba ProtonMail,
Protonmail`e lütfen en dogru ceviriyi yapabilecek bir belge Tercüme eden yapay zeka destekli bir programi entegre ederseniz , bu cok faydali olacaktir. Protonmail kullanicilariniz olarak bizim, Belge Tercüme programina cok ihtiyacimiz var.! Web sitelerinde gece gündüz Belge Translate programlarini ariyoruz ve o programlar cok pahali.!
Fakat, Protonmail olarak, biz kullanicilariniza böyle belge Translate hizmetini ucuz fiyata sunarsaniz ve bu Translate programini Protonmail`e entegre ederseniz Protonmail dünyada 1 numara olacagina inaniyorum.
Tesekkürler,Saygilarimla,

Eliminate the tedium in the usage of Proton products
Perhaps establish some metrics for tedium of use and ways to guage Proton products against those metrics. This is not a simple task, but hardly impossible to do, and would greatly benefit users and Proton. Example areas of "tedium": Unsharing multiple files at via selection or all in Proton Drive is not possible; Unsharing a single file is a multiple step procedure; Proton Authenticator passcodes are not automatically recognized by Proton products; Interaction between Proton products is less than stellar; Behaviors commonly expected in software are glaringly absent across Proton products.

2025 Summer Roadmap Feedback
I've been using Proton for about nine years and have always been enthusiastic and supportive, but now I'm beginning to wonder if Proton has jumped the shark. For the past couple of years almost all development effort seems toward serving recovering Google addicts. I was never deep into the Googleshere, yet one of the reasons that I switched to Proton was to have an un-Google experience. I think it is a bad policy for any company to try to serve the whims of customers: better to do what you are good at and provide services that are sound and well…
