1. Proton ZeroTrust Gateway

   Product Concept Proton Zero‑Trust Gateway

   Vision

   Proton already protects outbound traffic through its VPN, giving users privacy and security when they connect to the internet. The next logical step is to give them the same level of confidence for inbound connections—letting them expose services (websites, APIs, SSH, RDP, IoT endpoints, etc.) without ever having to open ports or configure complex NAT rules. A “Zero‑Trust Gateway” would sit at the edge of a user’s network, authenticate every request, enforce fine‑grained policies, and only forward traffic that meets those policies to the private host.

   Core Pillars

   • Identity‑First Access – Every inbound request must present a verifiable identity before any traffic reaches the user’s device. Integration with existing Proton accounts (including Proton Pass for MFA, Proton ID for SSO, and optional third‑party IdPs) ensures that only authorized users can connect. The gateway can also support short‑lived access tokens, QR‑code scans, or email‑based approvals for ad‑hoc sharing.

   • Encrypted Tunnel‑to‑Tunnel – Once a request is authenticated, the gateway establishes an end‑to‑end encrypted tunnel directly to the user’s Proton VPN client. From the perspective of the public internet, the service appears to be hosted behind Proton’s globally distributed edge nodes, while the actual payload travels over the same privacy‑preserving infrastructure used for outbound VPN traffic.

   • Policy Engine – Users define per‑service policies that combine:

     • Who (specific Proton users, groups, or external identities)
     • When (time‑bound windows, geofencing)
     • How (allowed methods, rate limits, logging requirements) The engine evaluates each request in real time, rejecting anything that falls outside the defined parameters.

   User Experience Flow

   • Publish a Service – From the Proton dashboard or mobile app, the user selects “Expose Service,” chooses a local port or container, and assigns a friendly sub‑domain under *.protongateway.io. They then attach an access policy (e.g., “Only my team members” or “Anyone with a one‑time link”).

   • Share the Endpoint – The generated URL can be shared directly, embedded in an invitation email, or turned into a QR code. If the policy requires approval, the recipient receives a secure request that they can approve with their
     Proton Pass MFA.

   • Connect Securely – When a remote client accesses the URL, the edge node authenticates the request, establishes the encrypted tunnel, and forwards traffic to the user’s device over the existing Proton VPN tunnel. To the remote client, the service feels like a normal HTTPS endpoint; to the user, no inbound ports are opened.

   Strategic Fit for Proton

   • Differentiation – While many VPN providers focus solely on outbound privacy, a Zero‑Trust Gateway positions Proton as a full‑stack privacy platform, covering both directions of traffic.

   • Synergy with Existing Products – Leverages Proton VPN’s global edge network, Proton Pass for MFA, and Proton Identity for SSO, creating cross‑product stickiness.

   • Enterprise Appeal – Remote teams, developers, and small businesses can expose internal tools (git servers, dashboards, dev environments) without compromising perimeter security—a clear value proposition for Proton

   Business and Proton Visionary plans.

   • Revenue Opportunity – Offer as part of Proton Plus/Professional tiers, with tiered limits on concurrent exposed services, bandwidth, and advanced policy features (e.g., geo‑blocking, custom TLS certificates).

   Potential Challenges & Mitigations

   • Performance Overhead – Adding an extra hop could increase latency. Mitigate by deploying edge nodes in key regions and using protocol‑level optimizations (QUIC, HTTP/3) for low‑latency paths.
   • Abuse Prevention – Open endpoints could be misused for illicit content. Enforce strict abuse monitoring, require verified Proton accounts for publishing, and provide rapid takedown mechanisms.
   • Complex Policy UI – Users unfamiliar with Zero‑Trust concepts might find policy creation daunting. Provide guided templates (“Team Only”, “Public Read‑Only”, “One‑Time Guest”) and contextual help within the dashboard.

2. Make all apps able to update themselves independently of app stores

   Similar to what Signal does, it would be great to be able to install apps from the proton website, then update them from the app itself, without having to use the app store. This would reduce dependencies on App Stores that are run in (and potentially influenced by) authoritarian governments. Not having to trust Google Play or the Apple iStore (or whatever it's called) would be wonderful for those of us living under newly authoritarian governments, or anyone outside that country using those app stores.

4. Tails OS and Proton AG

   I'll address this as a problem, not an opinion. First, the Proton Pass and Proton VPN Tor (Firefox) extensions don't work at all on Tails OS, and no Linux apps, especially Proton Mail Bridge, work properly (in .deb format). I know Tails OS is a Linux distribution focused on security and high-level privacy, but Proton and its privacy mission are excellently supported. My journalist colleagues and I have been using Proton Mail for a long time, and it's an indispensable service for us. I urge the Proton team to address this issue as soon as possible. If possible, contact Tails OS and request that a repository containing Proton products (using Tor+https) be added to the Snaptic app store. I understand this request will be difficult to accept and may be rejected, but please, please, bring joy to the thousands of Tails users who use Proton for us.

5. Proton App

   This may be a tall ask, and i know this may not even be something that most would want from Proton, but a single app containing all Proton services, also providing a way to easily secure/manage your Proton account as well with a custom UI instead of the standard web version.

6. Beef up passkeys by requiring hardware security key or 2fa code authentication

   I am concerned with how easy it is to activate passkeys with Proton Pass. Let's say that someone's child or sibling were using their computer and snooped at their account, either on purpose or on accident. If that account doesn't have a passkey they would have to at least click through to autofill the username/password boxes, which at that point their conscious would tell them this is wrong and they might turn back (we can hope!). But if that account uses a passkey, it is as easy as clicking the pop-up and it is easier for someone to be tempted to just open the account. Since passkeys are so easy to use, it is only one step removed from basically being being logged in everywhere all the time so long as the Proton account is signed in.

   So rather than a passcode requirement at timed intervals, it would be nice if there was an option to require hardware key authentication or 2fa code for every single time a passkey is used, regardless of if the Proton user has timed pin-code unlock turned on or not. The feature could be toggled just for passkeys or for autofill in general, which would also be nice and could essentially lock Proton Pass to your hardware key even if you were already signed in on two devices in different locations (like if your younger brother guessed your PIN code for your laptop while you were away and snooped through your browser with Pass signed in and passcode turned off)

7. Overhauled UI & Settings Across Apps

   I've noticed across the apps on both desktop and Android that theres no consistent UI and Setting Changes.
   It may just be an OCD or autism thing from me but I recon it would be nice if proton implemented an overhaul on the apps UI so that all settings options are consistent (apart from app function exclusive)

   For example, the android mail app is just simple and "blockish" the vpn app has a decent UI but it has a icon changing feature (which I presume is implemented as a censorship hiding thing) like a dark mode which isnt present across all apps

8. Search function in Standard Notes

9. Lumo integration with code editors

   Most of the use I make of AI is to assist me with coding tasks so it would be great to integrate it with code editors. Maybe making it compatible with tools like https://www.continue.dev/ would be the easiest.

10. Proton Authenticator copy next code

    Currently when pressing/clicking an account, the current totp code is being copied to the clipboard (regardless of where you click).

    It would be great if it was possible to copy the next totp code to the clipboard when pressing/clicking the next code (and for the current one, click that one in stead). It'll make it easier when you have to switch between apps and the timer has almost counted down to 0.

11. Need a feature to manually pick "icons" for our codes in the new standalone Authenticator app

    As the title suggests. The app is new and lacks this basic feature. When I create an 2FA secret, it just selects the service icons itself and I can't manually change the icons to my liking. Please add a way for us to change it.

    Also the Authenticator app seems to lacks many services icons please add them.

12. Background sync

    Multiple Proton applications stand to improve my introducing background sync in more places.

    Proton Calendar feels sluggish, often taking several seconds to create or update simple events. We welcome a local cache of calendar data, that periodically syncs with the cloud in the background. That way, the interface will feel much more fast and responsive.

    Likewise, Proton Drive mobile apps have an artificial, obnoxious need to remain foregrounded during file transfers. Let's conduct transfers as background processes. This synchronous foregrounding aspect is cumbersome, particularly where large files ir many small files are involved. By contrast, the Proton Drive desktop applications do not have this onerous requirement, and feel more satisfactory to use as a result.

13. Add Support for Storing and Using Digital Certificates in Proton Pass

    Currently, Proton Pass allows storing credentials, notes, and files, but does not provide a way to store and use digital certificates for authentication or signing.

    I propose adding a feature that enables users to securely store their digital certificates in Proton Pass and use them directly without installing them on the operating system or browser.

    This would be extremely useful when working on shared or untrusted devices, where installing certificates locally is not safe or practical. It would also improve security and portability for users who rely on certificates for identity verification or encrypted communications.

14. standardize

    How about standardizing each Proton Product's login Dashboard to have the same look and feel with links for Account, Product Download, Properties, Settings, etc all be in the same location for each product dashboard. Seriously, what a friggin pain ********** it is to try and locate these settings on each dashboard?! The links are either missing, or moved, or whatever - it's frustrating! Think about a product like Microsoft's Office - Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, etc. Each product I open has these controls easy to locate, in the same place, and easy to navigate. I mean, how hard can it be? Seem like Proton products are all developed by different companies who don't communicate with each other.

15. Storage one time purchase

    It would be wonderful to have an option to buy storage in proton. So that someone could offload their files from other services like google to totally degoogle their lives. A one time purchase that was separate from your monthly subscription would be great!

18. Move away from Electron apps

    Many apps that Proton uses are built with Electron, which are much less secure and much more bloated than native apps
    https://www.privacyguides.org/articles/2024/11/30/pwa-vs-iwa/#current-web-based-apps
    I think it would be really cool if all of Proton's apps could be native ones.
