Add an APAC Edge (Australia / Singapore) for Faster, More Private Lumo/Proton Services
I’m a Proton Unlimited user living in Melbourne (and I have friends in Indonesia and Malaysia). The current latency when opening mail folders, loading Drive files (Linux client please), or starting a chat is around 150 ms because the nearest edge is in Europe. That extra “thinking” time hurts productivity, especially on mobile networks.
Opening an email from the Proton Mail servers in the Android app takes nearly 15 seconds.
A local edge in Australia (or Singapore, which is a stable, centrally‑located hub for the whole region) would bring round‑trip times down to < 30 ms for metadata look‑ups and reduce upload/download latency…

New Login Detected Email Notification
Overview:
This feature would automatically send an email alert to the account owner whenever a new login is detected on their Proton account. The goal is to enhance account security by providing real-time awareness of potentially unauthorized access.📩 How It Works:
- Trigger Event:When someone logs into your Proton account from a new device, browser, or location that hasn't been previously recognized.
- Email Notification Includes:
- Date & Time of Login
- IP Address & Approximate Location
- Device Type & Browser Info
- Login Method (e.g., password, 2FA, recovery)
- Security Recommendations (e.g., “If this wasn’t you, change your password immediately.”)
- Optional…

Labels and Automatic Actions
Gmail has a feature that lets you set labels to certain senders or key word and then assign actions. For example i could assign a label to addresses that send me ads and promotions and then assign actions that automatically mark these emails and read and move them to a folder i created.
Can we please add a feature like this on the free version?

Opaque distribution of email addresses in Proton Duo plans
Thank you for this incredible work and these amazing products! I would just suggest to allow an opaque distribution of email addresses in Proton Duo. Actually, new email addresses have to be added through the administrator panel, he's the only one to be able to add email addresses. It could be useful to allow N addresses to an user of the plan, like for the storage and the VPN connections, with no possibility for the administrator to know what are the addresses used by each user.

Multi-select/delete
Please add a feature to select and delete multiple filters, folders, and labels. I just had to manually delete over a hundred of them.

Log in with QR code
I'm using Proton Pass for all logins. But to start using it on a new device I have to manually enter my Proton password there. It would be very nice to be able to scan a QR code by already logged in device instead.
Here is an example of this feature implemented: https://help.kagi.com/kagi/privacy/log-in-with-qr-code.html

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…

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…7 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.
