It would be great if proton provided a standalone Address Book app; especially on iOS.

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…

Office suite (text editor, spreadsheet, slides)
Cloud synced text editor, spreadsheets, and slide presentations. Not seeing this exact description/idea posted anywhere. Would gain fast adoption by students and everyone, really.

Physical Proton Gift Cards
It would be nice to be able to get physical Proton gift cards in a store (like Apple gift cards and Google Play gift cards are available in store). I'm in Canada and it would be nice to see that here

Proton Big tech
How do you prevent Proton to become a new (European) Big Tech company, who has it all? Isn't it a danger that people are so dependent on Proton with so many features?
Why not, as a next step, start building a network in cooperation with other European (or Not American) companies and give the opportunity to integrate their products.
Take for instance IA writer a far better tekst editor then Proton Docs, integrate it instead a wasting time!
Take Luma, there are beter products in Europe. Work together to have them build it to your privacy standards and integrate it!…

Always connect to Proton Wallet using a password.
The Proton wallet should be more secure by enabling its two additional options:
2) Always require a password to log in to Proton Wallet, even if we are already logged in to another Proton application. Ideally with two-factor authentication.
1) Log out after a few minutes of inactivity.Context: I just realised that:
1) Even if I don't tick the ‘Remember me’ box, as soon as a session is open on the computer, I can log in to Proton Mail or Proton Wallet or other services without a password on the Vivaldi browser. This is still the case even after…6 votes -
Calendar: Better Z axis layering of concurrent events
When several events start at the same time, then Proton Calendar has a nasty quirk: It narrows the event title columns to just 2-3 characters wide, making it hard to read the event names.
Please use Z axis layering. It's okay to stagger the events or use other collapsing techniques. Just don't narrow the title width so much.

Proton Unlimited Not Unlimited
I have been paying for Proton Unlimited for many years. In the beginning, it was presented as the way to benefit from all Proton features. For some time now, every new feature tells me how I can pay extra for a 'plus' version of something. And I continually see prompts to 'upgrade' to the Duo plan to receive more features, even though I only need a plan for one person. I don't understand why Proton would do this to people who have been supporting them financially for so many years. Now I see Lumo appear. I open the feature through…

Dead VPN sessions
Several times each day, the Proton VPN session dies.
When this happens, most network services continue to load, such as non-Proton websites. However, Proton platform services stop working. Proton Mail fails to load emails.
The VPN client reports a normal, healthy connection status. Yet Proton services are unreachable.
As a workaround, I have to frequently disconnect and then reconnect to VPN.
I'm using the default, fastest VPN servers available.
Please fix how Proton services integrate with Proton VPN.
Please ensure that the Proton VPN apps indicate when connectivity to the Proton platform breaks down.
Please implement automatic VPN reconnection when…

Bad Proton platform interaction with ICS email attachments
Proton Mail often fails to present UI controls to accept/decline calendar events.
This happens for about 10% of ICS attachments, depending on the service that generates the event data.
The Proton Calendar website permits these attachment files to be uploaded and accepted.
The Proton Calendar mobile app, such as for iOS/iPadOS, fails to support ICS file uploads.
This causes unnecessary friction for mobile users.
Please fix the mobile Proton Mail and Proton Calendar apps to handle the very same ICS data as the Proton Calendar website.

Export folder structure for folders within folders
When I go to export mail to .MBOX files using the ProtonMail Import-Export app, it would be great to have the option to export the entire folder structure, which the chosen folder is located in.
For example, the following folder structure:
1. Root Folder
2. Sub Folder
3. Full Folder (.MBOX)
Here, the root, sub and full folder would be exported in the original order as seen in Proton Mail.I like to meticulously sort my mail into multiple folders depending on my need, and I like to keep backups of my mail.
If you could implement this, it would…3 votes -

"That idea has been deleted" - censorship without cause
Why create a user forum only to censor its ideas?
If it's obscene or totally irrelevant: yes, clear the spam.
If it is a legitimate idea, don't wipe it: decline it with brief explanation.This is a shocking find that dishonors proton integrity.

Better signatures
The current signature feature in Proton Mail is insufficient for business applications.
In addition to long requested features such as support for multiple signatures, or being able to switch between HTML and Plain signatures on different platforms, other features such as, but not limited to, the following would make Proton Mail a realistic option for larger businesses:
- reply signature option (to avoid spamming a big signature block for every single reply in a thread),
- authenticating signatures (signatures with some kind of validation token; unclear on how to implement),
- a signature catalogue (browse multiple signatures and set for which address they…

Proton Chat
I’ve seen multiple other users suggest this, but I would like to make a request. If this is done, I’d like for it to have features that would make it a viable alternative to discord. The community I am in that suggested this company to me is becoming wary of continuing to use discord, and we may start looking for an alternative shortly.

Proton should support and mediate collaborative projects on Activitypub, AT and the bridge between these for a more democratic internet
Proton should support the development of an open source and directly user influenced internet. Social media platforms control a large share of this market, and they have proven to be bad actors towards democratic foundations and individual freedom. Activitypup and AT (fediverse and mainly BlueSky) have shown us that there is another way. Meta takes this serious as they have build their new platform, Threads, to integrate with Activitypub. This means that Meta is supporting the Fediverse, or rather, that they're trying to win the market share. As the other platforms in the fediverse are mainly community driven projects, the…

Google scholar alternative
Thia idea probably is for the future, but in the apirit of getting out of the google sphere, I would like to propose an alternative to google scholar.
Google scholar ia a simple search tool for diacovering scientific articles, in which you can also follow researchers, receive mails when these researchers publiah new articles, and you can make lists of published papers based on your chosen categories.
If you have plans to partner up with the team from Brave or Duck Duck Go, then thia could be a nice tool to add.
