More desktop apps that support the ARM architecture.
Except for VPN, those of us running Linux on Raspberry Pi ARM hardware are stuck with web-based apps or browser extensions.

Upload-Only “File Request” Links for Proton Drive
Hello Proton Team,
I would like to request an upload-only “File Request” feature for Proton Drive, similar to what is offered by Dropbox, OneDrive, and Google Drive.
Current shared folders with “can edit” permissions are useful, but they still allow users to browse folder contents and potentially modify files. For privacy-sensitive workflows, this creates unnecessary exposure and administrative overhead.
A dedicated File Request feature would allow:
- upload-only access
- no browsing or downloading
- no visibility into other uploaded files
- optional password protection
- optional expiration dates
- optional one-time-use links
- per-request isolation and auditing
This would be extremely valuable for:
- healthcare offices
- legal…

CO2e-neutrality pledge
Alphabet (Google) has abandonned their CO2e-neutrality pledge and schedule, because of the energy cost of AI.
Now is the time to shine for Proton, by taking the vacant place that is offered!!
It would be extremely popular, especially in Europe, and would push a lot of climate-conscious people from other service providers towards Proton.

disability
Many people use Proton Mail and Proton Drive to securely store important personal documents, including government-issued records, identity documents, disability certificates, medical reports, and application forms.
It would be helpful to have features designed specifically for managing these kinds of documents, such as:
Custom document categories and labels.
Better PDF preview and search capabilities.
OCR support for scanned documents.
Expiry reminders for documents that require renewal.
Secure document folders with quick access.Title: Better Support for Organizing Important Government and Accessibility Documents
Accessibility improvements for users who rely on assistive technologies.These features would make Proton even more useful for…

Proton Journal
I was thinking about something just now: there doesn’t seem to be any open-source, end-to-end encrypted software for keeping a journal. In my research, apart from a few self-hosted projects, I couldn’t find an open-source, trustworthy journaling app offered by a company. Apple has an app that looks nice, but it’s closed-source.
I don’t keep a journal myself, but for people who do, this could be a great idea. I think Proton could consider this and release an end-to-end encrypted Proton Journal. Honestly, it seems sensible and I believe people would use it.

Multi-platform Contacts Manager for PC and Android
Contacts management happens on smartphones and most people use the google standard issue app. This raises huge privacy concerns. A Proton alternative could provide similar utility without the privacy issues of Google and could be made such that it syncs with a PC version.

Version History and check for update feature
I tried to find out if my Proton Desktop app is up to date and found it incredibly hard to find any information about it. A support site where every Proton app is listed and then for each platform of the product, a version history with release notes would be very helpful. Additionally, a check for update feature in every app would be great too. Proton drives does this very well already and I wish this features universally for all products.

Native Thunderbird integration for Mail + Calendar (without Bridge)
Description:
Thunderbird is one of the most widely used desktop email clients in the open-source ecosystem. Presently, Proton Mail can only be accessed through the Bridge, and Proton Calendar cannot be used at all. This causes several limitations:
• The Bridge must always be running in the background;
• There is no native calendar support in Thunderbird;
• Reliability and performance depend on a proxy layer instead of direct protocols;Meanwhile, Mozilla has just merged K-9 into Thunderbird as their official Android app and is developing Thundermail—a new service platform that will offer online mail, documents, spreadsheets, slides, and more.…

Shared calendar with notifications
It would be great if there were a shared calendar (e.g., "family") that notified all users of the calendar whenever somebody made a change, addition, or deletion. For example, if I added an appointment to the family calendar, all the other family members would be notified that I added something. Or if a family member changed an appointment, I would receive a notification that the appointment had been changed & by whom.

Warn if outgoing message is missing an attachment
When I click Send in a new Mail message, warn me if the body text refers to an attachment (e.g. "attached is...", "see attachment...", etc.) but there is no attachment.
(Obviously this would require that Proton scan the body text; not sure if that's something that's prohibited by Proton privacy policies. But the scanning would be done locally, so it shouldn't be an issue.)

Protonvpn: Server Load Category Selections
The privacy of every vpn is only as good as the amount of people using it. The more people on a server the more secure it is.
Protonvpn should have selectable toggles for servers with particular load ranges by country 0-30, 30-50, 50-70 etc. Selecting a load range will pull a randomized list of servers within that load range from different locations within a given country.
This gives the user more streamlined control for optimizing which server they are using with respect to their individualized threat model.

Not having gnome-keyring as hard dependency for proton-vpn-gtk and mail bridge apps
I'm on KDE, many are. And your apps work perfectly fine with kwallet ! Good job, genuinely.
HOWEVER, your apps keep installing gnome-keyring, DESPITE kwallet being present, when you install them on KDE. And man has that lead to issues here. New wallets created at each startup, when auto-login is enabled, apps not remembering my account, etc.
And with your apps already working fine, if not better, with kwallet on KDE, maybe just stop forcing gnome-keyring as a hard dependency ! I had to create a dummy gnome-keyring binary to satisfy the dependency.*
Thanks !

Support recurring annual calendar entries which fall on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or last weekday of the month.
From Proton Calendar, allow the user to create a recurring annual calendar entry which fall on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or last weekday of the month. For example, US Thanksgiving is always on the 4th Thursday of November. US Memorial Day is always on the last Monday of May. Allow the user to create ad-hoc recurring events similar to those 2 examples within Proton Calendar.
This will also benefit the calendar import feature, as imported calendar entries following the above recurrence rule fail to import currently, since their recurrence pattern is not currently supported by Proton Calendar.
