  1. Crowdfund Linux parity

    Run a crowdfunding campaign to put complete Linux parity on the Proton roadmap. This will allow customers and potential customers to demonstrate support more tangibly than with suggestions and votes.

    It is clear from broad and specific suggestions here on UserVoice that there is customer demand for improved Linux support. I can only assume that you are lacking concrete evidence for the SIZE of the demand. This is the intended purpose of crowdfunding campaigns.

    This is a specific, actionable suggestion to provide a solid business case for Linux support. It would also provide potential customers with confidence that Linux support…

  2. Respond inline on desktop

    Works on phone app - be consistent and allow to Respond In-line. I hate having people to open up something in an email I forward - they see a blank email until they select to "open" the forward. Who did the bug oversight with such bad inconsistency?

  3. Include Android APKs in all GitHub releases

    For Proton Mail it's already being done:
    https://github.com/ProtonMail/proton-mail-android/releases

    I'd like to see GitHub releases with attached APKs for all other Android apps as well.
    This would be really helpful for people using Obtainium & similar tools.

  6. Update without logging out

    The recent ProtonMail for Android 4.0.4 update logged me out and I missed some important emails. I only realized the update had logged me out when I wondered "why haven't I received any email for the past few days?" and opened the app.

    Please don't log users out when you update your apps. Or if that's unavoidable, at least send a notification to say something like "ProtonMail was just updated and we had to log you out. Please log back in so you don't miss any notifications"

  8. Don't obscure date/time when hovering over message

    Please don't obscure the date/time of receipt when hovering over a message in the inbox. At the moment, hovering over a message brings up the open, trash, archive, and snooze buttons, obscuring the date and time the message was received. Just add those buttons next to that info.

    Thanks!

  9. Configure if mail or calendar desktop app opens first

    It would be nice to choose, if you wanna start Mail or Calendar in the new Windows App. Much better would be to have a separate shortcut for each of them.

  10. Disable auto-rotate for PWAs

    the PWAS seem to have auto-rotate, for chromium based brower, this means, its gonna disrespect the systems auto-rotate feature when it is disabled..

    would be nice if I could check my mails over the PWA without it rotating non-stop, if would like this, I still could use my smart phones os auto-rotate.

  11. Dedicated support ticket page

    It would be great if we as users could login to the Zendesk page to have an overview of all our tickets. Many companies (e.g. Corsair, Withings) have implemented this already. That would make it easier to view the recent activity of a current ticket and reply to it instead of only through notifications per mail.

    Also, when submitting a ticket via the ticket form (https://proton.me/support/contact) the written message and details are not contained in the notification email you get after you have sent it.

  12. Approve login request on mobile to log in (passwordless login)

    Currently when I login on my Desktop through a webbrowser on a Proton web service I need to fill-in my MFA code, instead off filling in a MFA code I wou like the possibility to get a pop-up on my Phone and approve it with bio metric validation.

  13. Auto-lock for all apps and platforms

    I would appreciate it if all Proton apps had the auto-lock feature on all platforms.

    And please include following options for the timeout:

    • Custom timeout value
    • Lock on system lock
    • Lock when browser closed

    So it would be great if we could set the Auto-lock timeout in all Proton applications on all platforms to a custom value.

    Also the option to lock the app only whenever I lock the device or close the browser would be a great feature.

  14. Proton Drive for macOS Monterrey and MacBook Air 2017

    Hello developpers !

    Can you make an update of Proton Drive for MacOS, that allows us to use it on former mac. Currently, we need to have macOS 13 or 14, but for exeample, MacBook Air 2017 only works until macOS 12 Monterrey.

    Can you make an app like Proton mail Beta for macOS that works on Monterrey please. It will be very usefull for members who have a premium plan.

    Thanks a lot.
    Faithfully yours.

  15. Sort by size (bytes)

    This will allow deciding what to delete and what attachments may be too heavy for a program or OS to handle.

  16. Select all messages in search results

    Add an option to select all search results, in the same manner that you can select all messages in inbox or other folders when you click on the "select all" checkbox:

    "You selected 50 messages. Select all in Sent."

    One thing this will allow users to do is search for sent message older than a certain date and delete them all. As it stands, we have to go through and delete them 50 messages at a time.

  17. Secure remote control like RustDesk / TeamViewer

    Hello, perhaps Proton could offer a remote connection/control signalling server, which would ONLY make the initial connection, as in users x want to connect to user y and Proton simply give each client the connection address; and after that the Proton would disconnect and all data would be e2e between the clients themselves, not needing anymore server inbetween.
    Something like TeamViewer used to be easier to use, but now requires more hassle and is less secure, with data travelling thru the tv servers.
    There is RustDesk that uses the Rendezvous protocol for hole punching. Proton could use or build upon…

  18. See header info or recipent without opening

    Allow option to see either header info and/or which on my addresses a scam email was sent to without needing to click on it or otherwise open it first just to see that information. Currently, only sender address is available when you hover over the bad message.

  19. See recent attachment downloads in desktop app

    I love the ProtonMail desktop app (Mac here). But there's one big downside to processing my mail in an app rather than a browser, which is that my browser (Firefox) had a nice "Downloaded" button (also command-J) that let me instantly open the most recently saved attachment. Without that button, I have to open a Finder window and navigate to the file. I'd love to see you copy that browser feature in the app.

  20. Contact support with privacy preserving option such as PGP key

    Add a way for customers to contact your support team in privacy-preserving ways, such as, enabling the use of PGP keys. This is important because when zendesk or (insert customer support platform name here) suffers a data breach, sensitive information is less likely to be leaked. This could be easily done by allowing users to contact the support team signing the email with their own PGP keys.
