  1. Allow me to set auto-delete trash to X number days/months/years

    I like the auto-delete feature for the trash, but I would like to keep things in my trash for longer then 30 days.

    Please provide more options or allow me to set a custom time period for auto-delete.

  2. Unified Application

    Create a unified application platform to access all Proton features via a multi-OS application (Windows, macOS, Linux [Flatpak]).

    I'm thinking functions like:
    1) Workspace-like application with tabs down the left side for each application (Mail, Contacts, Pass, Drive, VPN, etc..)
    2) Option to toggle individual apps on/off if the user does not want to include specific ones.
    3) Option to pop-out individual apps
    4) Configurable timeout/lock for the app platform. Should include pin, password, biometrics, security keys
    5) Themes
    6) Application-based encryption to protect cached app data

    Take a look at Zoho's Trident application, there are some decent ideas/designs there.

  3. Spell check

    Provide multiple languages for spell checker for Mail, Docs, etc., that can be configured per document - Even better per paragraph or section.

  5. Emergency lock out

    It would be highly practical to have an option for a general or emergency lock out for Mail, Calendar, Pass and Drive related to the same account on all devices at the same.

  6. 2FA by hardware key only

    Being able to add physical Fido token is great but I would like that the requirement for TOTP to be removed.

    TOTO is quite often software based and software = surface of attack. Physical token allow air gap and are very secure and I don’t need TOTP personally, it makes my account vulnerable.

    Also just like Apple, a minimum of 2 physical tokens should be enforced since having a single token is putting you at risk of you loose it. 2 or more should be the rule of thumb.

  7. Finance manager

    Is there data more sensitive than finance data? I'd really like to have a Proton Finance app like KMymoney, Skrooge, etc. which can be accessed from web UI, mobile or desktop app.
    There are very few alternatives that provide multi-platform support and one needs to trust their privacy and security, which are your best characteristics.

  8. Automatic updates on Linux Debian

    Hello, I use the desktop application on a Linux workstation (Linux Mint, Debian distribution) and almost every time I open an application, I am prompted to update it. This is a bit annoying because I have several applications of the same type. In the end, I can't be bothered to update them every time because it's a bit time-consuming... I've searched the internet, but I can't find an apt repository to perform updates automatically at the same time as my PC updates.
    Is there currently a way to automatically update the various Proton applications, for example with APT Linux?
    If…

  9. Proton Backup for Android/ios

    It would be awesome to be able to not use google backup, to backup an android device. Proton backup could replace it, and it would be one step further to not rely on google having our android data to scan/etc...

  10. Enable a community translation system

    Proton is only available in a few languages, and many of us have to adapt to a language other than our own because ours isn't available. If a translation system were enabled, Proton could be available in every language people wanted to contribute to.

  11. Music Player App, integrated with Proton Drive to consume online and offline media

    A Music Player for the songs that are saved in Proton Drive, it would be nice if there was the option to display or not the songs that were made available offline in other applications, the same goes for the other Proton applications

  13. Proton Bank - An easy bank

    A digital bank,
    like Bunq or Wise,
    with similar and useful functions,
    but with security and privacy standards,
    as we know from Proton,
    I see a very big future for Proton Bank,
    do you see it that way too,
    community?

  14. Collaborative Whiteboard Application

    A whiteboard application like openboard.ch would be a great addition to Proton. I currently have several disparate projects in which we are using whiteboarding within the teams but one of the primary drawbacks is that, openboard is a local application only - they provide no collaboration services (eg, team shares one whiteboard collectively as we work) there's one owner for the board and only one can interact with the board at once. If Proton were to implement a service like openboard - adding the security of encryption to the feeds and data storage as well as new features like realtime…

  15. Contacts App for Personal CRM

    I love privacy focused services like Proton, but the reality is that I am social in real life and require software to manage how I network. Personal CRM tools such as Covve are incredibly useful because it doesn't rely on using privacy invading social network platforms. It would be amazing if Proton offered to use my contacts as a personal CRM so I can take notes on my personal interactions and schedule reminders to follow up with people.

  16. Improve Proton Calendar notifications on Linux (sound, persistence, snooze)

    On Linux (Ubuntu / GNOME), Proton Calendar notifications are easy to miss: they are transient, quiet, and disappear after a few seconds if you are away from the screen.

    There is currently no way to:
    • enable audible alerts
    • make notifications persistent until dismissed
    • snooze calendar reminders

    This makes Proton Calendar significantly less usable on Linux compared to mobile platforms and even basic desktop calendar apps.

    Please consider improving Linux notifications by supporting one or more of the following:
    • notification sounds
    • persistent / actionable notifications
    • snooze support
    • better integration with Linux desktop notification standards…

  17. See through all ideas

    There are lots of ideas here on the platform. Many have already been implemented. Perhaps we should go through all the users' ideas and mark those that have already been implemented as completed with a link to the documentation page. That would save a lot.

  18. Native Thunderbird integration for Mail + Calendar (without Bridge)

    Description:

    Thunderbird is one of the most widely used desktop email clients in the open-source ecosystem. Presently, Proton Mail can only be accessed through the Bridge, and Proton Calendar cannot be used at all. This causes several limitations:

    • The Bridge must always be running in the background;
    • There is no native calendar support in Thunderbird;
    • Reliability and performance depend on a proxy layer instead of direct protocols;

    Meanwhile, Mozilla has just merged K-9 into Thunderbird as their official Android app and is developing Thundermail—a new service platform that will offer online mail, documents, spreadsheets, slides, and more.…

  20. Add a "Proton Docs" category to the forum

    Currently, Proton Docs lacks a dedicated category on this forum. This forces users to post Proton Docs feedback in the "General Ideas" forum, which could potentially slow down the app’s development. Therefore, I formally request that a dedicated category for Proton Docs be added to the forum. Thank you for your attention and your valuable time.
