Adopt WEBCAT for all web-based applications
The whole existence of Proton revolves around a trustworthy, easy-to-use suite of end-to-end encrypted applications. But one thing is to use Proton's digitally signed mobile applications, another is to use Proton's web-based applications.
So I suggest the early adoption of WEBCAT, a Freedom of the Press Foundation project currently in alpha.
From their website (https://webcat.tech/):
"""
The ProblemWebsites can change their code at any time, and HTTPS alone does not guarantee that every user receives the same, intended web application. WEBCAT addresses this by enabling signed delivery and transparency log–backed distribution of participating web applications, allowing end users…

Have the same features on the iOS Proton Mail app as on the Windows app
I really need to be able to manage my filters and reorganize my folders on the iOS app.
This is possible on the Windows app.
When a feature is released somewhere, it should be implemented in all apps.3 votes -
Fix Progressive Web App (PWA) icon for Proton Calendar on macOS
For those of us with OCD:
When you add Proton Calendar (calendar.proton.me) as a PWA to your macOS device (e.g. using Brave browser), you get a white square icon that does not match established macOS style guides (no rounded corners). Current fix is to override the icon with a custom one via the Finder "Get Info" option. This is probably an issue for other Proton apps, but I have not checked those.

Proton Pass: provide a identity interface with pass and possibly the system locked down
Currently one can save identity documents but not necessarily show them securely.
What would be of great benefit, is a locked down interface, which can be entered from the pass interface where one selects one or more identity documents.
Upon confirming, a locked down show ui should be started, that locks proton pass and possibly the device, but keeps showing the identity documents.
This would make pass a good alternative to carrying identity documents.3 votes -
Asking for an app review should not happen too often and can be declined temporarily or permanently
ProtonVPN Firefox extension asked me to review it at least 3 times, even I have already reviewed more than one year ago. There does not seem to be any way to say "I already did".
Maybe the app can then prompt again with lets say 2-5 years delay if I want to update the review.
Asking too often feels negative/bad design.

Mobile Apps: Do not prompt for FIDO2 pin (be consistent with website)
I don't know about the Android apps, but on iOS, the dialogue prompts for the pin when using a security key.
This is not the case on the website, and in my opinion, requesting the pin only makes sense when the key is the only factor, in Proton's case, the user's password is already required.

Add the block sender selection to the Android app. I see the option to block sender within the desktop application, not the Android app.

More domain names and apps for docs and sheets
Will you ever expand to other domain names (e.g. proton.be specifically) because the email I want is not available for either proton.me or protonmail.com.
Also having desktop apps for docs and sheets would be great, i like editing on desktop apps rather than my browser.

Zapier integration for Mail, Calendar, Drive, Sheets, and Docs
I’ve been using Proton for a while now because I really care about privacy, but it’s frustrating that there’s no direct Zapier integration for Mail, Calendar, Drive, Sheets, or Docs. Adding native support would let me set up simple automated workflows without having to do everything manually or use workarounds that feel clunky. It’d make Proton way more useful for daily productivity while still keeping everything secure.

Allow SMS Backup & Restore app to back up to Proton Drive
A lot of people in the GrapheneOS community use an app called SMS Backup & Restore. It allows backups to automatically sync to Google Drive. When I asked the app team if they would support backing up to Proton Drive, they said they would love to but the Proton team has to allow it first. I'm unsure of the technical details, but is there any way this could happen?

Select multiple images and export/share
Sometimes you want to do the same action with not just one image but maybe 10, or 20 etc. For example, maybe I want to export them to another app, or send them to a friend etc. However, in the Proton Drive app on iOS, as soon as you select more than one image the only option you have is to add them to a library. All other sharing-features are removed. This is such a road block when you want to access your images and perform a task. For example, the other day I wanted to export images from Proton…

catch-all address can be a group
Currently the catch-all address can only be a single user. It would be handy to be able to forward catch-all messages to a group of addresses, any of whom can deal with it.

standard notes: Note sharing
I have a suggestion.
Sharing notes with someone else.Short explanation:
If 2 users are using standard notes it should be possible to share notes between them.
I can choose to share a note with another user.
That other user can see the note between their own notes. They can hide the note if they want to.I think it would be best to work with an email.
So if I decide to share it an email will be sent to the other user where he/she can accept the invitation and the note appears in their standard notes. The editing…3 votes -
Build an interface to allow simple encryption of locally stored Proton Mail messages
Capability to search content of ProtonMail messages currently seems to depend on storage of the messages on a local drive, in plaintext form. A PM user could locate the messages storage location, manually encrypt that directory, and then decrypt it when a detailed message search is required, remembering to encrypt again upon completion of the search operations. But this seems like tedious work that could be automated. Perhaps an interface could be built between the ProtonMail search function and encryption software, so that the user would only have to enter a password, or otherwise authenticate the use of encryption software,…

Create slim version for compatibility to old browsers
Proton makes updates to their service time by time and every update breaks compatibility with a large old version browsers and systems. They do not consider that all hardware cannot work smoothly with latest OS versions and therefore, they have to use older browsers.
In addition, some browsers which have many advantages over other browsers regarding stability and performance -like seamonkey- are not supported by proton at all.
I know their reasoning is "update for security" but experience shows that servers who rely on day to day update are less secure because they do not informed well about security principals…

move Account settings in All settings to the bottom
When openingen All settings in either Mail, or Drive (web app) the items at the top are Account related. The settings related to the specific app (Proton Mail, Proton Drive) are at the bottom.
This is (at least for me) confusing, because at first look the menu is the same in Mail and Drive, allways pulling my attention to "Your plan" (my subscription) and "Download Proton Mail and Proton Calendar" when i want to change specific settings.Is it possible to start the menu with the app specific items and move the Account items to the bottom ?
Or to…3 votes -
Have chat or phone support for mail and calendars
Have a chat or phone support to be able to resolve issues or answer questions on the spot instead of it taking several days.
The possibility to have a conversation would allow much faster resolution and much easier onboarding for new clients.
One email every 24 to 72 hours means it can take over a week to resolve something and customers are stuck until the next email.
In my case it has been 9 days, and I just realised the solution confirmed as valid despite my doubts, by CS in today’s email seems to actually be moot, delaying me again…

Open source pass-cli
The pass-cli docs are on GitHub, but it would be much better if the application itself was there also.

Mailbox for Unread E-mails in ProtonMail
Dedicated mailbox for unread emails:
An inbox that displays only unread messages would be very useful for users who want to focus solely on new items.Persistence of the “Unread” filter:
As an alternative, when applying the “Unread” filter in the “All Mail” mailbox, it would be helpful if this setting remained active when navigating between folders and upon returning, avoiding the need to reapply the filter each time.
