Remove dependance on google play services
Protonmail android app is dependent on google play services and that is obviously against privacy and security.
Users who removed/disable google play services or used vanilla "lineageos" without gapps cannot get the mail client work properly.
Google play services collect every possible piece of info about the user; location, body sensors, application usage, and every other possible thing. So telling the use to enable/install google services you compromise his privacy and security by 3rd party app which is clearly against the idea if Protomail.
I hope you can correct this and have no dependence on google at all.

I think that would be an important step to live up to the principles of ProtonMail. I will not use it when I have to dwonload it from the googleplay Store. But it would also be enough to download the APK directly from ProtonMail

First, try restarting your computer, printer and wireless router. To check if your printer is connected to your network: Print a Wireless Network Test report from the Epson Printer Setup Support. On many printers pressing the Wireless button allows direct access to printing this report.

Several privacy/security conscious Android options do not use Google Play Services. This is by design, as GPS is seen as a backdoor for Google to our data. The market for such phones is likely the same people who left Gmail for ProtonMail to begin with.
The default option for email on these phones is usually IMAP, either through polling or P-IMAP notification. Polling seems to work quite well here, and, if the poll time is properly adjusted, the battery hit is minimal.
It would be helpful if the ProtonMail Android App had some set of options, like IMAP, that allow for notifications without Google Services. This doesn't necessarily have to be a default feature, just a way to get notifications without opening ourselves up to Google.

For what it's worth, the Protonmail APK will run without Google Play Services installed, there are just no push notifications. However, there are some things that are annoying about this that seem to be remarkably easy for Protonmail to fix:
1. It would be nice if the APK could be downloaded directly from ProtonMail. I shouldn't be required to load Play and Google Services on my phone, or use some other more sketchy or hacky method with large potential security flaw just to load the APK. Just let us download from the ProtonMail site with a secure login as an option.
2. It would be nice if the app had an option to poll the email server at a reasonable interval (5min-10min). I get that Protonmail developers might see GPS - at the moment, anyway - as the most secure option for push notifications. But GPS opens up a lot of other vulnerabilities on our phones. Polling ProtonMail servers directly for notification is a far more secure option. I'm guessing that many that bother to use ProtonMail as their primary email would be OK trading the additional battery & data usage for security.

Paid user here. The dependency on google is a huge privacy concern. Privacy and security are why I use PM. I get the push notification problem, however, this is an insignificant problem. Take a look at K-9 Mail. This app is able to provide me with notifications across a few different email services by polling the servers at an interval I can set. This solution could be implemented with PM.
Honestly, for me, this privacy faux pas is a bigger issue than not having a calendar yet. You're still small, that's okay. When you advertise as a security and privacy focused company you should focus on privacy and security first. Google is neither private nor securesecure. It just isn't part of their advertisement business model.
