Option to set a pin for the desktop app
Please add a feature that allows auto lockout after startup / a specified number of minutes on the desktop, and requires a pin to unlock. This can be useful and convenient in situations where the application is installed on a computer in an office setting or on a terminal where the user frequently has to walk away.

This is a gaping hole in security. Really needs to be upvoted

I would like this for desktop and android apps. My computer is sometimes used by other people and so it would be useful to have a PIN to restrict access to Mail and Drive. It would also be nice for android apps. I know OneDrive has a PIN option on the app and I found this useful to restrict assess.

Since I have proton installed on my notebooks this is a critical option for me. It can always happen that somehow some gets physical access to my portable device and can just "open" the Mail app.
EDIT: Even a simple PIN would be enough imo Make it like the pass app where you can either have biometrics, PIN or Extrapasswort

I'm surprised that this request hasn't had more votes. Given the privacy focused nature of Proton Mail it seems silly not to have some sort of password protection to open the desktop mail app. This saves me the need to logout and in every time I finish work.

Unlock the app to read emails, as on phone, with pin or fingerprint.
