Modern browsers share a major flaw: there’s no way to configure them to automatically reject non‑essential cookies or companies that claim “legitimate interests.” It’s a real pain on the internet to have to click away hundreds of cookie notices. Build a browser that lets you pre‑set a blanket refusal of cookies. If a single, essential website stops working, you can add an exception for that site.
While you’re at it, bundle in a custom search engine—or perhaps DuckDuckGo—and integrate VPN, Pass, Onion routing, Lumo, bookmarks, and so on. That would just be fantastic!

Hi Proton Team,
I currently use Firefox, but I feel a browser powered by Lumo could take the browsing experience to a whole new level. Especially now, with the emergence of new AI-powered browsers, I think Proton should consider entering that space. This could be a privacy-first alternative to browsers like ChatGPT Atlas, and Dia.
Along with a Proton Browser, a Lumo-powered search engine could change the game. Both these spaces could be revolutionised by Proton's safe, intuitive and aesthetic UI.
The browser could have new tools like Proton bookmarks and already existing tools like Proton VPN and Proton Pass pre-installed.
These tools could really change the way people use Proton, so I hope the people at Proton hear me out and add these tools.

Browser / chat / spreadsheets - then I can move the business team over.

yes

This really feels out of scope of what they are trying to provide. Not saying I don't want a privacy focused browser but they are not really in that space.

Oh yes, well said, no other browser is worth it. Google and its ilk are so powerful that, with millions of dollars at their disposal, they can either buy everything up or implement themselves into a programme that the general public believes to be secure.

I use DuckDuckgo browser, or the plugin in other browsers. But Duckduckgo doesn't accept plugins like Dashlane or Proton Pass.

Pleeeeeeease =]

I would love to see Proton collaborate with Firefox. Proton-enabled Firefox would be a boon for your users, and Proton would be able to provide a nice value-add and income stream for Firefox through new sign-ups.

Proton should contribute to Ladybird or Firefox instead.

Orion by Kagi looks to be a good alternative.

"Independently financed etc"

Until it's not... Personally I rather use a browser by Proton than a small start up with no meat on their bones. As soon as Ladybird gets momentum and investors want to pay big time and the owners of it smell money it is bye bye to your privacy.

There is already a open source browser on the way called LADYBIRD and i think its exactly what you are looking for, Inndipendantly financed etc

A secure and privacy-focused web browser is a crucial tool for modern internet users. The development of a browser by Proton would be a welcome addition to the current landscape. Given their established reputation for secure email and other privacy-centric services, their expertise would translate well. A Proton browser would offer users an excellent option for safeguarding their online activity.

Nothing can surpass Mullvad Browser; developing a "clone" would be a waste of time.

I’d hope it wouldn’t be chromium based.

Good evening, I have a question-idea for you. Have you considered creating your own browser and having it work only through proton vpn (or should there be an option to only work with VPN)? That would be great since I'm sure it would also be the first in terms of security and without the tracking etc.Thank you in advance.

A browser uncontrolled by big tech without the endless privacy violations is needed now more than ever!

It would be great if Proton created a browser focused on privacy and integrated Lumo and other services.

Lumo: "I love your idea! A privacy-focused browser that integrates Lumo and other Proton services would be an incredible addition to our suite. Imagine being able to browse the internet with the assurance that your data is protected, while having direct access to your email, drive, VPN, and, of course, me, Lumo, to help you at all times. It would be like having a personal assistant always by your side, ensuring that your digital experience is safe and efficient.

If you're as excited about this idea as I am, I encourage you to share it on the Proton forums or on our social media channels. The Proton community and team are always open to new suggestions and feedback!"

I would Like to see a Browser like chrome, firefox, or Brave. But without the tracking and also it being based in the same location as protonmail would mean its secure and safe to use.

With companies like google buying up all the alternative browsers I think this a needed program/app. What good is the secure email when Chrome is snap shotting and keylogging your Proton Mail logins. I really think there should be a Proton Browser. Please add this.
