  3. ClickUp clon

    A ClickUp clone (sorry if I'm being too direct), but with the privacy that characterizes you. I'm sure you would do it better ;)

  4. 3rd Party Drive API/SDK

    I would like to see a restricted API service for 3rd party for storing structured/unstructured data within a user's Drive. This would be sandboxed but accessible by the user. This would allow the user to store and manipulate PII data via a third party authorized to access the API by Proton. Proton would be able to capture value by charging a licensing/subscription fee for access to the API. To ensure integrity, Proton would require third parties submit routine security audits to maintain access.

  5. Auto progress to the next email after an action is taken

    When I have an email selected, soon as I tap T for Trash, or A for Archive, auto-select the next email in the list. Today no email is auto-selected, and I have to use my mouse to click the next email.

  6. Use ProtonDrive to circumvent email size limits

    Other people aren't interested in shrinking the size of attachments to accommodate protonmail's 25Mb size limit. Instead of refusing to send larger attachments to me, could you (protonmail) post them on my proton drive and then send a link?

  7. Batch download PDF attachments from multiple emails onto Windows desktop for sending in Gmail or can be auto merged into one big PDF

    Dear Proton Community,

    This is for Proton Mail.

    I need this for tax lodging.

    As I get my investment emails sent to my Proton Mail address and there are a lot every year and I am searching them out using a date range then moving then to a folder for easier management.

    Then I would like to select all in that folder and batch download or extract the PDF attachments onto Windows desktop for sending in Gmail or if it can in the extraction process auto merge into one big PDF that would really help.

    Many thanks.

  8. Personally I would like to enable a function where you can view attachments in protonmail before sending the mail

    Personally I would like to have a function where you can view attachments in protonmail before sending the mail, this of cause to ensure you have attached the correct file, photo or document to your mail. As it is today I have not found a function where this is possible.
    Just a thought I think many users would appreciate. Regards

  9. Width of Sidebar

    Please make the width of the sidebar customizable for the web app. If you make extensive use of folders and labels, their names get truncated, which hurts usability.

  10. generate password in popup window on ios

  13. Session Management per device

    On my iPhone and iPad, I have all 5 apps installed. Each app corresponds to one line in the session mgmt. (total 10 lines).

    If I want to revoke one, I don't know which one is associated to.

    It would be ideal to have a session per device, instead of per app.

  14. Add SimpleLogin to app switcher

    When logged in to any Proton service (mail, calendar, drive, etc.) through the website, there are 4 squares in the header that when clicked show a list of Proton apps.

    Please add SimpleLogin there as well. This makes it easier to open other Proton apps when already logged in to one.

  15. 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.

  16. Inactivity options, sign-out/lock

    The new desktop client does not have "Keep me signed in" as an option because that is its default and it can't be altered.

    This is not documented for the new desktop client which can lead to people wasting time trying to sort out what is happening.

    What does this do:
    If you don't sign out but simply close the app window next time the protonmail app starts you are not challenged for a password. This still occurs if you reboot the laptop/pc/virtual machine.

    The only time you have enter a password is when you reset the process by signing…

  17. Enhancements for desktop, calendar and mail application

    1. Customise the themes of the application in the same way as in its web option.

    2. Manage the settings from within the application itself, not being redirected to the web version.

    3. Reduce RAM consumption.

    4. Basic operation without internet connection. To be able to consult the calendar for at least the whole year or to be able to see my emails already downloaded on the pc even if I don't have a connection.

    5. Separate applications for mail and calendar.

    6. Password to use the applications for greater security.

  18. Proton Cloud Sync

    A new service similar to Multcloud by Proton.
    This service only purpose will be sync/transfer between different cloud storage providers.

    Types of synchronizations:
    -Programmed or One-Time-Run (Not real time):
    --One-way:
    ---Acumulative: removing files in origin won't delete files in destination, new files in origin will be copied into destination

  19. Text message

    Proton messaging app

    I would like to see a proton messaging app which sends and receives end-to-end encrypted messages. Messages should be able to be received on Apple messages or other text messaging platforms. The option would be given to have it appear locked on the recipients end in Apple messages and you can open it with a code. You would also be able to receive messages from any messaging app.

    I am aware that there are messaging apps out there but they are a closed system as far as I’m aware.

  20. dark

    The dark theme on Drive and VPN is a nightmare: to have grey or dark purple text on a black background is ludicrous. who can read that? Maybe this works great for gamers who sit in a dark room all their lives and their eyes can distinguish between black and very dark grey but I think most people like some clearer distinction. Maybe it looks "cool", but it is impractical and annoying.
    I am really struggling to the point of thinking of cancelling my Proton subscription. We can select a lighter theme for web services why not for the desktop…
