1. Please let us inline AVIF images in the message body just like JPEG and PNG

   Proton Mail lets users preview AVIF image attachments natively, but it doesn't let us inline the image into the message body like we can with JPEG and PNG. How come? Seems simple enough!

   So look, AVIF is a modern image container standard universally supported by all modern browsers and operating systems and has been for years. It's not nearly as ubiquitous as JPEG or PNG, but it is significantly more efficient with its compression algorithm. An AVIF image is significantly smaller and better-looking than an equivalent JPEG, and even lossless AVIFs have better compression than PNG. It is an all-around better format.

   I would prefer to use AVIF images in my email communications because it's much more efficient with way smaller attachment sizes, looks a whole lot nicer than legacy image formats, and has better features than JPEG and PNG combined while being supported by all modern platforms. I have no reason not to adopt the image format besides technical limitations such as this, where platforms don't allow me to use it the way I want.

   Please fix, there is no down side, thanks! :)

2. New Product: ProtonCut

   I’d like to suggest that Proton develop and release a new service called "ProtonCut," similar to CapCut, focused on easy video cutting, merging, and editing, with optional AI-based features. This service could integrate directly into the Proton ecosystem, protecting user privacy while allowing cloud uploads of projects to Proton Drive.

   Free users could access basic editing tools, while advanced Pro features—such as high-end AI editing, premium transitions, and export options—would be exclusive to Proton Visionary, Proton Unlimited, Family, Duo, or subscribers to "ProtonCut Plus," a new subscription that, like VPN Plus or Mail Plus, offers only the premium benefits specific to ProtonCut. ProtonCut Plus would not include additional advantages such as extra storage or benefits for other Proton services. It strictly provides premium features solely for ProtonCut, without extending any premium benefits to other Proton products. In this way, anyone could use the service for free with limited capabilities, while premium plan holders get the full power and feature set.

   The goal is to create something as intuitive and user-friendly as CapCut, while ensuring data protection and secure cloud storage built into Proton Drive. This would expand Proton’s ecosystem and take advantage of its existing infrastructure, like using Proton Drive to save projects for video editing, creating a unique privacy-first video editor.

3. Crowdsource funding for Proton Spreadsheet. I (and others) would give $100 right now.

   A spreadsheet is the only thing keep google customers from infusing cash to Proton. This is a business error. Instead of only votes, create crowdfunded initiatives. I would give $100 immediately (I'm poor) to fund this initiative. Voting is nice, crowdsourced money to do a job that you know takes x amount of hours. No brainer.

4. Proton Photos

   I would really appreciate it if there were a separate programme just for photos. I find the ‘Photos’ feature on Proton Drive completely useless. There isn't even a preview of the images. How are you supposed to find your photos? I also think it's bad that Proton Drive can't open RAW images and the like. That shouldn't be the case with ‘Proton Photos’. I currently have my images on Apple Photos. I find it very practical. With the albums, you can easily view image information and tag the images with keywords and so on, and you can easily edit the images in the app. But I am concerned about Apple's privacy. I have read some not very pleasant news. I trust Proton. If you create a ‘Proton Photos app’, I would take a lot of inspiration from Apple Photos. In addition, the following features would earn you bonus points with photo enthusiasts who care about privacy: When editing photos, it should be possible to remove metadata with a single click and compress images according to user-defined settings. I don't have a programme with these features yet. I will soon be looking for another solution for my photos. I hope I will soon be able to enjoy storing my photos without any worries. On a cloud that is secure in terms of data protection.

   Best regards,
   Mischa

7. Don’t append HTML signatures when replying to plain text emails.

   I have an HTML signature that includes linked text with a call to action, like, “Click here to see my work.” When relying to plain text messages, the signature is included but without the link. There should be an option for a plain text signature, or “Do not use in plain text.”

8. Auto-Reply Per Email Address

   Use case: autoreply only from work address when out of office but not from personal address.

10. Silent calendar notifications

    Proton Calendar notifications are useless. No sounds. No haptics. It's way too easy to miss important events. Don't bother. Use Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, Outlook, ANYTHING but Proton Calendar.

13. A Decentralized, Privacy-First Digital Identity Platform to Empower Global Freedom

    Dear Proton Team,

    I write with excitement about an idea for a project that feels like a natural evolution of your mission: a self-sovereign digital identity solution that puts power back in users' hands, not governments'. In a world where centralized ID systems are becoming the norm, Proton could lead the charge toward true digital freedom. Allow me to outline the urgent problem, a ready-made solution, and why you're uniquely positioned to make it happen.

    The Problem: Centralized IDs as a Slippery Slope to Surveillance
    State-backed digital IDs promise efficiency but deliver vulnerability and control. Take the UK's "Brit Card," announced in September 2025: a mandatory app-based wallet for work rights, housing, and benefits, backed by a central biometric database. It's already sparked a 2.5 million-signature petition from groups like Big Brother Watch, fearing mass surveillance and a "1984"-style society – especially in a post-Brexit landscape with weakened privacy laws. Critics warn of "function creep," where initial checks for immigration morph into tracking everyday movements.

    Denmark's MitID offers a more mature example: a swipe-to-authenticate app that's integrated into 90% of public services, banking, and shopping. It's convenient, but its centralized infrastructure (tied to government and banks) creates a single point of failure. A cyberattack – like the 2018 NemID breach or a hypothetical missile strike on data centers – could paralyze the nation for weeks, halting payments, healthcare access, and more. Worse, it enables subtle overreach: Metadata logs of logins could profile citizens without consent, eroding the very privacy GDPR aims to protect.

    These systems exacerbate broader issues: Voter fraud (e.g., duplicate identities in elections), exclusion during outages, and a chilling effect on free speech, as seen in UK's Online Safety Act prosecutions for online opinions. Billions are invested in these fragile fortresses, yet they centralize power in the hands of states and corporations – the opposite of empowerment.

    The Solution: FreeID – Decentralized, User-Owned Identity on Blockchain
    Imagine FreeID: A free-market-driven, blockchain-based Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) platform where users control their data fortress. Built on a resilient network (e.g., Ethereum or Polkadot for scalability), it uses zero-knowledge proofs to verify credentials – "I'm eligible to vote" or "I have right-to-work status" – without revealing underlying details. No central database means no honeypot for hackers or governments.

    Key features:
    Decentralized Resilience: Distributed ledger eliminates single points of failure; competes via open-source innovation from startups, ensuring rapid evolution (e.g., AI-assisted setup to solve early complexity).

    Offline Backup: NFC chips or QR codes for verification without internet – perfect for crises, blackouts, or remote areas.

    Voter Fraud Killer: Tamper-proof, anonymous voting integration: Prove eligibility once, cast a blockchain-secured vote, and enable real-time, auditable tallies without tracking who voted what. This could end stolen elections overnight.

    Privacy by Design: End-to-end encryption aligns with Proton's zero-access ethos; users revoke access anytime, excluding state overreach.

    As a free-market model, FreeID thrives on competition: Affordable tiers from privacy-focused apps, with seamless integrations for banking, travel, or e-government. It's future-proof – market forces guarantee user-friendly updates, outpacing stagnant state systems.

    Why Proton? And Why Now?
    Your non-profit pivot in 2024, open-source audits, and grants to projects like Tor position you as the trusted steward of digital rights. Integrate FreeID with Proton Pass for effortless onboarding, or Proton VPN for secure transmissions – it's a seamless extension of your ecosystem. Launch as an open-source pilot (perhaps via your community fund), starting small in privacy-forward markets like Switzerland or Denmark, then scaling globally. The impact? A blueprint for billions, dismantling surveillance silos and restoring trust in digital life.

    This isn't just tech – it's a leap for human freedom. In an era of eroding rights, FreeID could be Proton's moonshot: Empowering individuals to own their identities, secure elections, and build resilient societies.

14. 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. (Such a step could even be mandatory)

    Maybe this feature does not exist because it is considered a security issue. So I would like to hear what others think about this idea.

16. ProTube

    Please, don't resort to YouTube for your visual content! The company has already demonstrated its complicity with American fascism by its recent settlement payout to the U.S. government.

17. Better widget for Proton Calendar and more colours

    The Proton Calendar widget is quite limited, it would be better something more similar to what apps like Google Calendar or Notion Calendar have. There would also be more variety of colors to customize the events to your liking or at most another color palette

19. Feature Suggestion: Automated Personal Data Removal

    I greatly value Proton’s commitment to protecting user privacy through your suite of encrypted services. However, I see an opportunity to enhance the user experience and strengthen Proton’s value proposition even further.

    Currently, users who want to remove their personal information from the internet must manually contact data brokers, websites, and search engines ... a time-consuming and ongoing task. I suggest Proton develop a Personal Information Removal System that would:

    1. Scan and Identify: Automatically detect where a user’s personal data is publicly available or held by data brokers.
    2. Automate Removal Requests: Send verified opt-outs or deletion requests on behalf of users.
    3. Monitor Continuously: Notify users if data reappears and manage ongoing suppression.
    4. Integrate with Proton Services: Seamlessly complement existing Proton tools like VPN, Mail, and Drive.

    This feature would transform Proton from a data protector into an active defender of online identity, giving users a complete privacy solution while differentiating Proton from competitors. It would also increase trust, user engagement, and potential premium subscriptions.

    Thank you for considering this suggestion. I believe it aligns perfectly with Proton’s mission to safeguard personal data in the most comprehensive way possible.
