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…

ProtonMail Bridge - Proton Drive
With the protonmail bridge - aka ProtonDrive Bridge, would it make sense to connect to our Proton Drive. I see it as a way to bridge into our Proton Drive to easily access our files from our favorite file explorer rather using the web browser.
Also it would be easier for us to choose our favorite linux file explorer for us to easily connect to our personal proton drive, with our favorite linux file explorer its just adding the remote protocols and using protons recommended secure e2e encryption like adding the imap/smtp protocols to our favorite email client from the…

Onboarding Opt-out or Toggle
Current onboarding experience needs to be streamlined and needs to respect users. Currently, there are emails sent daily for the first week or so and then there are frequent notifications and banners and modal windows that pop up and interrupt the user while trying to complete a task or just send a quick email. This constant interruption and disrespect for user's time and agency is not welcomed. For those that need onboarding, let them opt in and for those that do not need onboarding, let them opt out. There should be a single question upon new account creation: "Would you…

Better importation/linking with Gmail with Proton Mail
First off, I LOVE the new ability to link your gmail account. This is extremely helpful, and removes 90% of my reliability with Gmail as it's all available with Proton Mail.
However, organization is needed for a couple different reasons.
1) Spam/Promotion
Gmail gives you HUNDREDS of emails into a quick "Promotions" area. All of this goes unfiltered upon linking with Proton, and floods your entire Proton Inbox.
For emails listed under "Promotion" tab in gmail (as well as other misc areas such as Spam), it should be filtered into some type of Subfolder and/or ignored.I think the easiest…

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 !

A feature to pause synchronization for a certain period on desktop.
OneDrive has this feature, I think this is a must.

Create "Duplicate Entry" capability within Proton Calendar iOS app
The Proton Calendar iOS app does not currently support the "Duplicate Event" capability that the Proton Mail PC app has. Provide this capability to the iOS Proton Calendar app.
This should work when the source calendar is a Proton Calendar or a shared calendar.

Display calendar import failures in English, not machine language
When importing a .ICS file to Proton Calendar, some calendar entries will not successfully import. The user can view the errors, which are displayed in machine language (i.e. the numerical ID for the calendar entry) instead of the name of the calendar entry (i.e. "Steve S's Anniversary"). Therefore, without significant effort, it's not possible to know which calendar entries did not successfully import to Proton Calendar.

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.

Ditch The LLM, It's Slop
Ditch The LLM, It's Slop. A.I isn't good for anyone or the environment. It also takes a lot of time and resources to implement that could be put to better use for your paying users.

More a question
Is there a good chance that the new Euro-office is to be integrated in the proton ecosystem? It would be great and if all proton features work together you would have a great workspace.

Change push notifications from Apple or google play services, to an ecosystem agnostic option
It would be great to be able to use Proton’s apps and services without needing to rely on Apple’s Push Service or Google Play Services for Push notifications. This way we can use Proton Services without needing to install microG or activating Play Services.

ProtonVPN Plus and ProtonMail Plus separate subscriptions
Online I see that for 2 years ProtonVPN plus plus is 3 EUR per month. When I log in to my ProtonMail (Plus), only the Proton Unlimited is visible for 10 EUR per month (I already have mail plus). I switch to VPN, then I get the VPN plus option, but it shows that I'll have only basic mail functionalities (looks like I will lose my Mail Plus if I switch to VPN Plus?). I only want VPN Plus to be able to VPN to Germany. I want to have Mail Plus and VPN Plus together (it's more worth it…

Turn desktop notifications for all new emails
Can we have a toggle to turn off desktop notifications for all new emails, please? Currently notifications for new emails arriving in my inbox is on by default and I haven't found a way to turn these notifications off, other than blocking all notifications from proton.me, and I don't want to do that. I just don't want a desktop notification (or anywhere else) each time I receive an email.

More Free Folders Please
Can you up max folders in Free Proton Mail from 3, to say 10? Just signed up for a new Proton Mail acct, looking to switch to a new platform. But VERY disapp'd to see 3's the limit! Between that and all the upgrade reminders, I'm not so sure Proton's my answer. Merci from Canada!!

Simpler log-in to Proton services with QR code
I like being able to log-in on proton services on a browser using a QR code scanned on my phone by the mail app. It doesn't require entering my password and going through 2FA each time.
However, it is seen as a recovery method at the moment, and thus hidden behind multiple menus (on the browser and on the Android mail app).
Is there a reason to not have this method as a standard way of log-in, with the feature available in the higher level menus? It would be even more convenient to have it as a quick action on…

Named Sessions
Named Sessions:
It is challenging when using different vpns or when cache clears to connect to a single session.
I end up having to login and clear sessions constantly, even with defined exceptions for cache because depending where I am the PC uses a different VPN.
It would be cool to be able to connect to a predefined session via some key or token or whatever mechanism may work to identify and authenticate a unique session beyond cookies.
That way you could have explicit sessions, and not have to worry about wondering if 1 of the 50 sessions that is…
