Dependence on google makes the mobile app unusable.

I can't recommend Proton to anyone who (a) cares about privacy/security and (b) needs email notifications.

Can we at least get an explanation as to whether this will be a future feature, or whether, for some reason, Proton will never create a standalone apk?

Even if you don't usa Google, you will be traced by other search engines.

I want to disable google captcha on the check out page when customer play apm test game. Visit this https://cpstesters.com/apm-test/ & let me know how to disable this from page

I'm forced to use google because of some of the integration features. These include but are not limited to: calendly, zoom, desktop file sync, online document editor (doesn't have to be robust, just basic), WearOS app integration or IMAP capability or an android version of the bridge. When proton decides to implement these basic features then we can ditch google. Also, a photo storage backup for your mobile phone by "date taken" would be nice. I hate backing up my photos to google and amazon

Dude its just import function not a integration of servers that can h@ack your data. Your data is private as Crypto node or block chain technology help it. So it impossible to crack it. I use Ethereum Node of compromise my data through https://cryptonodes.io/ and you should use that too.

For android i use GrapheneOS and i do not have google pay services installed thus emails do not come though via push, but i also have the calendar app and i get those notifications without issue.

please fix the mail app to not require google play services anymore

I appreciate that I could easily transition away from Gmail with this import feature. There is no reason to get rid of these integrations.

Dude, calm down. It is just an import feature, there are no "ties" between the two companies.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

If you use an Android phone then your operating system is made by Google unless you use a manually installed version like lineageOS that's "de-googled".

Not sure what "malicious notification library" means but I assume this is again something built into the Android operating system, and again I'd recommend using a custom installation to remove Google from the OS.

The button you're referring to to import contacts makes it easy for people to transfer their existing data into proton and abandon Google Contacts altogether. This is a **good** thing, not a bad thing. If you don't want to import from Google then don't. If you do, then that means you were already using Google before and have shared way more data with them by prior usage than you will migrating data away.

I disagree with both of these suggestions, I think the import from Google is a solid feature to help new users easily make the switch to private and secure email and there is no risk to privacy in doing so.

Same with Apple, at least since Sept. 2021 - unfortunately

People don't realize how much google spies on you. They also don't see how google is very Bias. Most dont see the bad thinks google does, but many are starting to wake up, and are looking for Alternatives for their things. I hope people can find great Alternatives to google and their Products. One of the best bets is Use a Adblock and script blocker to help clean out Most of the spying. Good Luck I hope the best for all.

This is critical because I am using a phone without google. I want to escape their constant monitoring of devices. We know communications are encrypted, but metadata to my device still paints a picture. Other apps have solutions.

I agree Google is a pernicious influence I use Duck duck for my searches is that ok?). Remember that social media platforms are also extremely aggressive in collecting your personal info. Whats even worse is when your contacts with other people are also logged as links. this intrusive concept just outrages me. it gives power to orgs like Cambridge Analytica to influence elections etc.

For those who read this and came to the conclusion that Proton is "using Google", it's my understanding that this post is simply referring to importing data from an old gmail account into Proton. The concern was that this links your new Proton account to your old Google account in their records, which is realistic in my opinion.

This doesn't mean that Proton is relying on Google for any functionality. That's just an onboarding shortcut.

It may be better to have good guides on how to manually export data from Google, and import it into Proton.

I couldn’t Agree more! I came here to remove myself and family from corporate Google..

Honestly, I've used Google for over a decade and had them lose files from Google Drive, send me through toll booths despite me clarifying otherwise (up to six times in one drive!) with Google Maps... If I wanted Google Mail, why would I want to utilize Google services on another provider? I was honestly thinking about giving ProtonMail money for my household to get good email addresses, but now I'm thinking otherwise... Everyone talks about their security, but you can't put all your eggs in one nest and expect to count them the same in the future..! The bigger you are, the more people target you. Nevermind that utilizing your competition leaves you vulnerable if they decide to try and make a morally unacceptable manuever. I cannot express enough how disappointed I am to look around, specifically for Google free alternatives, just to find out they still use Google...
