1. Commit to remaining free of any and all AI tools

   Proton, so far, has been a bastion of "the Internet we actually wanted". This is why it was so disheartening to see that the company is now seriously considering integrating GenAI into its suite of tools.

   As the tide of big tech moves toward forcing AI tools into the face of every user, the existence of a platform that is explicitly not doing this is a breath of fresh air. There is no reason to "innovate for the sake of innovation". Let your competitors waste their time and energy being late to the party with the 80th, 90th, and 100th AI tools to come to market.

   Beyond the user experience, there is a plethora of moral reasons to avoid this AI plague:

   • The mass exploitation of human labour used to tag inputs for these models
   • The environmental effects of generating power used to train them
   • The obscene amount of fresh drinking water diverted toward cooling
   • The degradation of information quality, as the human knowledge encoded in language is substituted with statistical approximations

   Please, reconsider this. It's been refreshing to use a platform that wasn't mindlessly chasing big tech trends, and to lose that now would give me an extremely disappointing reason to go searching once again for alternatives.

   Thanks, Uservoice is for feature requests, please use it to raise specific pieces of functionality.

2. Focus on functionality and feature parity on existing products

   Proton should really focus on building with feature parity in mind. Most of their products work differently depending on the OS and that's not a good experience. Plenty of people use different OS (for example both Windows and Mac computers, the wife with Android, the husband with iPhone and the tech kid on Linux.

   STOP overmoderating, STOP spreading thin your resources and FOCUS.

   Thanks for posting an idea on Uservoice, as per the asks on the front page:

   
   

   Please make requests specific and actionable, generic "improve" or "make x better" posts will be removed.

   
   

   Different teams at Proton work on different products. There are still people working on improving Mail, Drive, Docs etc.

3. Request for better UserVoice standards for posters and moderators

   NOTE: I want to make it clear that I will give credit where credit is due, for example seeing examples of truly excellent engagement, such as the detailed explanation for the 'Metadata encryption' idea, which was transparent and thoughtful. I also had a fantastic experience with Proton Docs (Drive) customer service, who the agent (who I will not name for PRIVACY) did a great job of assisting me. This shows Proton can communicate effectively.

   TL;DR: Proton's UserVoice platform faces significant management challenges. My detailed post critiquing it was [DECLINED ❌] with the ironic "Please use UserVoice for feature requests" response, mirroring a pattern of high-voted ideas being [DECLINED ❌] with generic replies, often after years of waiting. This limited engagement with feedback, coupled with unmoderated spam and neglected [🟠 PLANNED] features, is impacting user trust and appears inconsistent with Proton's stated commitment to its community.

   ⚠️ IMPORTANT UPDATE: July 17, 2025
   The issues outlined below have not only persisted but have escalated dramatically, revealing a pattern of moderation that limits engagement with user feedback and appears inconsistent with UserVoice's stated purpose.

   This very post, intended to highlight UserVoice neglect, was [❌ DECLINED] by a Proton Admin with the response: "Please use Uservoice to raise feature requests." This ironic and dismissive reply perfectly encapsulates the core problem: a challenge in engaging with feedback about the platform itself.

   A relentless wave of [❌ DECLINED] ideas today:
   Multiple highly-voted ideas have been declined with generic, unhelpful, or circular responses. Examples include:

   ❌ [DECLINED] "Need More Products For Ecosystem” (53 votes)
   (https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/945460-general-ideas/suggestions/48735578-need-more-products-for-ecosystem)
   Response: "Uservoice is for feature requests, please use it to raise specific functionality changes or additions."

   ❌ [DECLINED] "Focus on existing products" (146 votes)
   (https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/945460-general-ideas/suggestions/48603929-focus-on-existing-products)
   Response: "Uservoice is for feature requests, please use it to raise specific functionality changes or additions." (again)

   ❌ [DECLINED] "Proton, buy Threema" (264 votes)
   (https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/945460-general-ideas/suggestions/48246425-proton-buy-threema)
   Response: "Uservoice is for feature requests, please use it to raise specific functionality changes or additions." (again)
   Note: No, I don't expect aquisations every single day. However, at least some acknowledgement as to why would be helpful.

   ❌ [DECLINED] "Proton Mail on iOS Apple Mail app" (80 votes)
   (https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/284483-proton-mail/suggestions/32785735-proton-mail-on-ios-apple-mail-app)
   DECLINED after 7 years of waiting, with no reason why.

   ❌ [DECLINED] "USERVOICE NEGLETION" (3 votes)
   (MY OWN POST, that speaks up) (https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/935538-accounts-payments/suggestions/50199909-uservoice-negletion)
   DECLINED after 3 hours.

   Decline vs Accept:
   While comprehensive, constructive feedback (like this post) is declined, a highly critical post titled "Stop being a greedy subscription-pushing enterprise" (99 votes - https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/935538-accounts-payments/suggestions/49048040-stop-being-a-greedy-subscription-pushing-enterpris) remains [OPEN 🟢] on the front page. I do not know this comes about. This suggests a varied approach to moderation that appears to limit engagement with direct critiques of platform management while allowing other feedback.

   Continued Neglect of [🟠PLANNED] items:
   The "iPad iOS Version" idea (138 votes - https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/284483-proton-mail/suggestions/11555208-ipad-ios-version-rather-than-stretched-iphone-vers), marked [🟠PLANNED] in 2016, remains unfulfilled and un-updated after 9 years.
   (By the way, an iPad version is still strangely non-existent, the new Proton Mail iOS app might fix this, but so far there's been no updates.)

   Technical Issues:
   The platform itself displays technical errors (e.g., CORS policy blocking images from S3), adding to the sense of disrepair. (Hint, for devtools, press F12 or ⌥+⌘+I)

   This pattern of behavior suggests a need for improved management of community voice, to ensure UserVoice functions as a tool for engagement rather than perceived silencing.
   I urge for change.

4. I would like to advise Proton to think long and hard about the setup of this forum

   As a European Proton customer I would like to advice Proton to think long and hard about the setup of this forum.

   I just had sign away the storing of my name, ip adress and other things just to provide feedback to Proton.

   And I had to gain access to the forum through Facebook or Google.

   Really, in this day and age?!?

   Thanks a lot for raising an idea on Uservoice. This is a platform for feature requests and functionality changes to Proton's products.

   
   

   As this is out of the scope of this, it has been declined.

7. Improve Uservoice, please...

   This is asking for a dark mode, better UI that of proton mail in quality, a warning that twitter(x) is a VERY bad website for privacy, and fixing the system for icons, the site that proton uses for icons is according to my source of "Blacklight" by Themarckup contains multiple trackers including evading trackers, it also lets google track you. So I propose that we flock over to a different way of getting icons or at least a disclaimer to use Tor before acquiring an icon.

   Please raise individual requests on Uservoice.

   
   

   It is not useful for voting to have a mass of things bundled together.

   
   

   When it comes to things like "better UI" please be specific, what could be better? What would it look like?

8. Fowarding Mails from Gmail contradicts the reason why I switched to Proton.

   I want to do everything I can to get more free storage space. However, the forwarding from Gmail to Proton means that the systems from Google know my new email addresses. I prefer to manually switch my accounts to the new email addresses.

9. Prioritization

   Hi Proton Team!

   I really like all the new products and ideas that are implemented. I appreciate how this is mostly due to people in this forum actively requesting stuff and you listening! Bravo.

   BUT! Could you please mainly focus on the boring task of improving your existing products before rolling out new stuff? There are so many important features being discussed here that are just sitting and waiting since 2023...For example:

   • Mac Folder Sync
   • Separated Mailboxes
   • Improved Docs

   I understand the excitement of launching new products, but a solid foundation matters more than a wide product range. Quality over quantity, please!

   Thanks for listening.

    Thanks for raising an issue on UserVoice. As per the rules on the front page:

    • Please ensure that your request and description are in English, use a translation tool if necessary

    This has been removed as it goes against this rule. If you have specific ways in which Proton can be improved, please raise them as feature requests or improvements for those products in English.

12. It's time for change. Is Proton listening?

    Quick look.

    As a long-time Proton user, I'm concerned by systemic "UserNeglect" and transparency issues. UserVoice ideas, like staying AI-free (425 votes), were [DECLINED ❌] just before Proton launched its Lumo AI tool. A Proton Admin on Reddit even contradicted Lumo's logging claims, and the official website still hasn't been corrected, showing a severe lack of follow-through. More issues like spam on the forums, unclosed completed ideas, and responses that never come make this an unignorable issue.

    My detailed UserVoice post on these issues gets minimal attention, and my Reddit post is stuck awaiting mod approval – ironically highlighting the very gatekeeping I'm exposing. I'm a loyal user, not a hater, and this needs discussion.

    Thanks, Uservoice is for feature requests, please use it to raise specific functionality changes or additions.

14. Improve Proton Mail!

    Please improve Proton Mail - fast!!! If Proton had a forum, I'd ask this there. Ever since the update with the new UI, emails take FOREVER to open. 5+ minutes. I cannot use Proton Mail like this on a daily basis. Please find a fix for this! The new Proton Mail app is supposed to be faster and improved, but this just made it slower and worse. Please fix this soon!

    Thanks for raising an issue on UserVoice. As per the rules on the front page:

    • Please make requests specific and actionable, generic "improve" or "make x better" posts will be removed

    This has been removed as it goes against this rule. If you have specific ways in which Mail can be improved, please raise them as feature requests or improvements for those products.

15. Help us get ready for youtube vpn blocks

    I just had my first experience on youtube (app, have not graduated to using it on Brave browser) where it showed me results for my search (biatholon athlete's name who competes internationally) and refused to allow me to use it unless I turned off vpn. I did a little searching and saw it's been an issue for 5 months or so, possibly related to the UK ID checking nonsense. While I'm seriously thinking about deleting youtube too many institutions require using it to view content that they require. I switched to another server and cleared the cash on the proton vpn and youtube. I can watch videos it shows me, I'm just anticipating a day when it will block all use with a vpn. I suggest in-depth blog post(s) on bypassing this with vpn settings, other ways, and getting youtube type content elsewhere (not another ****** platform that grabs as much data as it can and designs itself to be addictive).

    Sorry this is not a request for functionality.

16. No US social media platforms for news, discussions, etc.

    I would appreciate it if feature releases, the latest news on privacy and tips on online security were not announced and discussed on US platforms such as X and Reddit. These are private-sector platforms, and the US administration is using its economic and military power to prevent regulations on American social media platforms that would protect EU European users.

    Thanks for raising an idea on Uservoice.

    
    

    This platform is for requests for new functionality or changes to existing functionality.

    
    

    If you have requests to do with Proton's products then please don't hesitate to raise them; requests about the ways in which Proton's products are marketed are not for Uservoice.

17. Proton Mail down: "Internal server error"

    Proton Mail fails to load. I see an "Internal server error" error message. This started happening within the hour.

    Meanwhile, the official Proton Services Status page blindly reports "All Systems Operational." There's a disconnect between the Mail service and the status report.

19. Proton UserVoice 404 upon idea submission

    Proton UserVoice initially rendered a 404 error page, instead of my idea, upon selecting the Post idea button.

    Using ProtonVPN, in case that matters.

    Thanks, we will investigate this when talking to UserVoice, but the best place to direct your query would be to them, as we do not own UserVoice.

20. Add a check for updates button in desktop apps

    As it is right now, you have no way of knowing if the app is checking for updates or not.

    The apps are always automatically checking for and updating themselves (on Windows & macOS) -- if unsure you can always reinstall the app and compare version numbers before and after, however you will receive app updates regularly across all of our apps by default.
