  2. Lock Session Functionality

    When using Proton Mail on a laptop, it’s often convenient to keep the session open to avoid re-entering the password and 2FA code every time. However, this can become a security concern, especially on shared or work computers.

    I propose introducing a “Lock Session” feature, a temporary lock that can be unlocked using a quick PIN (similar to Proton VPN). This would allow users to secure their active session without having to go through the full login process again.

  3. Allow payment for Proton subscription plans before the due date

    My renewal for Proton Duo is about a month away. I was looking on the Proton website for a way to pay for the next 12 months before the renewal date, but to no avail.

  4. Show the server's city in the Linux App.

    California is a big place with at least two server locations. Differentiating between the two in the GUI would be nice, and I'm sure California isn't the only region that would benefit from some specificity.

  5. Reduce # of clicks to move a message

    Hi there! When I highlight a message and click the "Move" option, a list of folders is presented, requiring a second click on the chosen folder and a third click on the Move button.

    It would be faster to double-click the appropriate folder in order to move the message. Alternatively, as you type in the filter box, when the correct folder name is displayed, allow the user to hit the Enter key to move the item to the displayed folder.

    It takes a cursor move + 2 extra clicks to move an item to the desired folder. Having used Gmail…

  6. New Product: ProtonCut

    I’d like to suggest that Proton develop and release a new service called "ProtonCut," similar to CapCut, focused on easy video cutting, merging, and editing, with optional AI-based features. This service could integrate directly into the Proton ecosystem, protecting user privacy while allowing cloud uploads of projects to Proton Drive.

    Free users could access basic editing tools, while advanced Pro features—such as high-end AI editing, premium transitions, and export options—would be exclusive to Proton Visionary, Proton Unlimited, Family, Duo, or subscribers to "ProtonCut Plus," a new subscription that, like VPN Plus or Mail Plus, offers only the premium benefits specific…

  7. Instant communications

    I absolutely love my proton business account. However, I would like an instant communication app with two features. One a messenger and a walkie talkie type feature such as zello. It would be great have such features to communicate with a team in real time and potential clients.

  8. Proton Text to speech engine

    How about a proton text to speech engine? There is a private one named Sherpa text to speech engine. Check here: https://github.com/k2-fsa/sherpa. The google/samsung ones are privacy nightmares. Lumo and other proton apps would have the ability to integrate with it.

  9. app lock

    This is primarily focused on the desktop version of the application. On my iOS device, I can already require Face ID, but I’d love to see enhancements to the App Lock feature in Proton Mail and Authenticator. Specifically, adding the option to use biometric authentication (fingerprint or face recognition) or a passcode would provide an extra layer of security and convenience. This would give users greater flexibility in protecting access to their 2FA codes while also aligning with best practices for securing sensitive applications.

  10. Server capacity & disconnection issues

    Hello ProtonVPN Support Team,

    I’m using ProtonVPN free and facing serious problems while connecting:

    Because nearby servers (e.g., Netherlands, Poland, Romania) are often full, I’m frequently routed to very distant servers like Singapore or Japan, which causes high latency.

    While connected, sometimes the server suddenly reaches capacity or, due to my modem’s same-SSID issue (2.4 GHz / 5 GHz switching), the connection drops and I’m forced onto another server. This makes online games disconnect instantly.

    When I try to switch servers multiple times, the client enforces a long cooldown, which forces me to wait unnecessarily.

    Since free servers are very…

  11. General Link Tracking Protection

    Hi team!

    I know that removal of tracking IDs in emails is currently being worked on, and I think this is a great feature that I can't wait to see fully implemented, but I think proton can take it further and clean links outside of the proton ecosystem. There are a couple of apps that currently try to do this (Léon URL Cleaner, Link Sanitizer and, URLCheck) and they are all very immature implementations. As proton is already creating the mechanisms to complete this function from email, it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to expand the capability to…

  13. A crossplatform version of freeform with the protection of proton privacy

    By far, freeform is the platform where I feel like I can just dump anything that's in my head, be it journaling or random ideas that I can connect, or drawing up a structure; however, it's limited to Apple devices.

  15. New Proton Shop Merch

    Would love to support Proton and their mission more through the merch store (already have a paid plan so supporting that way as well). But it seems that the products that are out there are slowly selling out and nothing new is being added. I would love for more t-shirts, shirts, and hooded sweatshirts; stickers, cups/mugs, etc. I have been able to purchase a couple of things, but have been limited by the lack of restock - especially in plus sizes. Please consider adding more to the store and re-stocking what is out there.

    Create 3rd party login service such as Google's 3rd Party login. This would also help drive adoption of proton.

  18. More Privacy and Security with emails

    I think that there is way Proton could be the best encrypted and private platform (never mind that any email sent from a non non-Proton account will not be E2EE and can still be read by third parts because it is stored on non-Proton servers). When a Proton user receives a non-E2EE email, say from a Gmail user, Proton must decrypt that email and have access to it in primary memory in plaintext. If Proton's servers are compromised and suffer from zombie memory attacks (even a trusted execution environment (TEE) running cubes OS would not be safe from this kind…

  20. 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…
