All in one desktop app
I wish instead of having 5 different services all on different platforms, all being separate entities, I wish all of the Proton Services were on one menu and one program I can download. Having to open 3 tabs for Mail, Calendar, Drive, then open an Extension or another Tab for Pass, and then a separate program for the VPN is EXTREMELY F**CKING FRUSTRATING! It's so hard to navigate.
If all of this was on one program you can download to manage all of this - Life would be miles better.

SSO ID Login allows you to use multiple services once. No need to login again and again, saves time, is easy and data is also secure. https://ssoportals.in/

I regularly change devices, and every time I have to download VPN, Pass, Drive and Mail separately, and authenticate to each application with 2FA. I suggest a Proton application manager, to which we authenticate once, and then install/ update/ uninstall all Proton apps from. There are numerous examples of such managers, like Jetbrains Toolbox, Adobe Creative Cloud app etc.

I voted for this, then rescinded my vote. It is unclear to me what you want. Do you want a tray application like Jetbrains Toolbox, to manage all applications?
Or do you want a single application where you can do everything that current standalone applications provide as functionality?I want the former, not the latter.

My VPN subscription just expired. And I knew Proton had their own VPN now. I thought it would be convenient to use the same service for my email, VPN, and maybe Proton Drive as well. So I switched. I immediately regret. Now I have 4 new different apps for all the Proton stuff. Why not 1 Proton app, or maybe even an app manager sort of like Steam, but for just the Proton apps? All the Proton stuff in one place. When I open my Proton mail app, why not have the VPN, Drive, Password manager, etc all on tabs? Or not even the mail app. just "Proton". Open the app, and there is a mail tab, drive tab, VPN, password manager could even be hidden in the settings. We have a saying in the engineering trades "KISS", or "keep it simple, stupid".

I actually want the exact opposite. I say the more disconnected the more secure. Even having the ability to have different passwords for each system.

This would be so good. The current app-lineup is a very mixed and buggy bunch.
I wish they would coordinate all Proton services in one program/app (for Windows and Mac. I know this doesn't work on mobile phones).
Let them run from a common center that you can easily open from the system tray when windows boots (sorry, I don't know how this works on Mac).
Now there is one separate program/app for each service and some of these work quite poorly (mail, pass).
If this is under development already, can you please make it so that the ProtonPass app starts minimized in system tray when Windows starts. Now (at least for me) I first have to actively open the ProtonPass app and then put it down to the system tray.
ProtonVPN and ProtonDrive are the only apps that work reasonably well and launch discreetly in the system tray, as they should. -

Can someone provide a breakdown of how to sign up for an "SSO ID" on the Rajasthan SSO portal? I am especially curious about the required paperwork and any advice for a seamless registration process. https://ssoidportal.org/

I personal think that separate apps are preferable so that you can use only what parts of the proton suite you want to - An installer that lets you select from all of the proton apps that you'd like to have installed would be preferable to a monolithic app.
(Maybe a metapackage with all the apps for linux package repos in whatever packing guideline proton provides to linux packagers.)
On the sign-in to multiple apps issue - maybe some kind of integration with OS level keyrings to store proton session tokens so you only need to login once, except pass that should probably be kept separate.

I've moved my services to proton cause of wide range of offerings (mail,password etc). Now we have dedicated desktop apps for mail and pass (really appreciated) but we have to keep all apps separately.
Since you don't need anything apart from proton in your services, what about one for all desktop app?E.g
-Mail as main app
- "Pass" button that requires additional pin on click, but without separate app
- Quick VPN button on main window
- Quick "drive access" button on main button
- SimpleLogin quick access in one appSo rather than having mail,drive,pass and vpn as separate apps, and simple login as browser extension (unless you have pass plus) , we could have one to rule them all app.

Hello,
When reinstalling my computer, I needed to reinstall every app drive, bridge, vpn… and each time I had to do the full logging process.
I was wonderingif it was possible to develop one Proton software with all the feature inside.
Maybe the same also in mobile device app …
Thanking you very much
