Approve login request on mobile to log in (passwordless login)
Currently when I login on my Desktop through a webbrowser on a Proton web service I need to fill-in my MFA code, instead off filling in a MFA code I wou like the possibility to get a pop-up on my Phone and approve it with bio metric validation.

Interesting perspective shared in this forum. I’ve recently checked https://koko138.blog/, and it looks clean and well-organized.

Proton can be improved by enhancing performance, simplifying the user interface, and responding more quickly to user feedback. For updates or suggestions, just navigate to this website. https://futurespotal.com/

Hello,
Logging in without a password through mobile makes access faster and easier, especially for busy employees. Portals like Mysainsburys help staff manage work tasks like payslips and schedules without the hassle of forgotten passwords. A secure and simple login system saves time and improves the overall user experience. https://mysainsburysinfo.com/ -

Remove the authenticator app and use passkey instead

This should be implemented using the Webauthn/passkeys standard. Passwordless *login* should be allowed, with only a Mailbox Password to decrypt the mailbox. Passkey (biometric) prompt first, then mailbox password prompt after. Passkey would be a replacement for the first password of two-password mode.

Like Steam does it, QR code sign-in.

This could also be a sign-in with QR code, which would handle the username, password, and MFA

For accounts with long passwords be nice if when we enter our username on proton website/app we could approve login on another device (i.e proton pass on mobile phone) via push notification / OTP

Horrible idea, Get ready for MFA bombing (being spammed with prompts until you give in and click "Approve") like what happend to apple Icloud users recently if this is implemented.
push authentication is vulnerabile to social engieering attcks like this, I'ld quite posibly leave proton if they put this in.
Passkeys or FIDO2 Secutykeys would be a more secure passwordless option -

Being able to log in with a device (like Bitwarden does). So mobile devices (tablets, phones) have the option to turn on "login with this device", so I can log in with that device if I've already logged into the account (if want to log into my account from my friends laptop, to use this feature, you have to log into the account for at least one time). That's one of the things I need to move to Proton Pass from Bitwarden

A notification that pops up on your phone to allow / deny a login. Way better then a password.

Question for those requesting this feature:
"How do you get a Login Link (to eliminate the need for a password) if you are not logged into your email?"
Personally, having a Password + 2FA is the right way for most users to proceed. If you want more security, consider YubiKey and use a physical device (you have a key for your house and another for your car, so why not have one for your online account?).

Whenever trying to log in to Proton Pass in PC, browser you name it a an approval request sends to Proton Pass in mobile.
This future is very handy and works like 2FA (kind of! IMO) for logg in to PP on PC and browser and later on, on PP desktop app.

I don't have the aforementioned authenticators but I can envision a text msg from proton with a six digit code to enter.

Passwordless accounts are more secure than the password

This!
It's so much more secure logging into my work computer without having to enter my crazy password.
