  2. Proton drive should not have right to rename directory or file during synchronisation

    This append when i rename my directory directly under my files. Proton drive rename directory and files and adding « name clash date ». The application should simply transfer directories and files to the cloud and not have the right to modify anything on these objects under my files. This is a bug very dangerous.

  4. Respond inline on desktop

    Works on phone app - be consistent and allow to Respond In-line. I hate having people to open up something in an email I forward - they see a blank email until they select to "open" the forward. Who did the bug oversight with such bad inconsistency?

  5. Prioritize showing the person I'm emailing vs. my email address

    In row layout, I see my email address first when I was the last to reply but I can only see the first few letters of the person I'm emailing. This replaces the more important information with the less important. I don't scroll through my inbox looking for myself- but who I'm communicating with. (This is on the web version and not the app. I typically access email on my computer.)

    I see two ways to fix this.
    1. Change my email address to show as "me" so I can easily see the person I'm emailing.
    2. Put a bar…

  6. dark

    The dark theme on Drive and VPN is a nightmare: to have grey or dark purple text on a black background is ludicrous. who can read that? Maybe this works great for gamers who sit in a dark room all their lives and their eyes can distinguish between black and very dark grey but I think most people like some clearer distinction. Maybe it looks "cool", but it is impractical and annoying.
    I am really struggling to the point of thinking of cancelling my Proton subscription. We can select a lighter theme for web services why not for the desktop…

  7. Include the version number of app in mail

    Recently I got a mail about a new Proton Mail Android app. I clicked the link to the google store and could choose to either uninstall or open the app.

    If the version number was included in the mail it would mean that I could compare it with the installed version to know if I have to watch for an update or if the update already is installed.

  10. FIDO NFC for MFA

    Hello. I recently was adding 2 FIDO keys to my account and I noticed that I needed to have the authenticator app checked on has well. An issue comes into play when I use proton pass as my totp.

    If I get logged out of my account on my phone (iPhone), I don't have an option to use NFC with the FIDO key as my MFA. Can this function be added?

  11. Accounts Switching

    I think it would be nice to be able to chose between authenticated accounts straight from the menu instead of the current solution of going to another page to make your choice.
    The menu would present you a list of your currently authenticated accounts and the "add account" button

  12. please answer my questions - bitte meine fragen bewantworten

    Hello

    1.) How can I forward my emails from Hotmail to Proton? Unfortunately, I can only find one option here: From Gmail to Proton. Please help me with this.

    2.) Proton advertises end-to-end encryption

    Our end-to-end encryption and zero-access encryption means that no >one (not even Proton) has the technical means to access your data >without your permission.

    I wanted to import my emails, contacts and calendars with Easy Switch. Unfortunately, I am asked to give Proton access to everything:

    Proton Easy Switch needs your consent to:
    Read your profile
    Proton Easy Switch can read your profile.

  14. Option to collapse sidebar (mutual exclusive)

    Proposal:
    Make the sidebar of the web view manually collapsable.

    Details:
    This proposal is only about the function collapsing sidebar itself. This proposal is not about how this feature would be implemented on the UI.

    Related Threads:

    [1] Option to collapse sidebar
    Link: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/945460-general-ideas/suggestions/48123095-option-to-collapse-sidebar
    Note: The idea of collapsing is the same. However the author did also mention a concrete UI implementation in his idea, which might make voting difficult.

  15. Rethink customer support

    Every time I submit a request for customer support, I get a response that misses the point, is vague and phrased in irritating corporate-speak. It seems to me that you are using some half-baked AI or some really stupid and/or over-managed people.

  16. Creating a uservoice account should not automatically connect with Gravatar

    As a Proton user, I expect my interactions with all Proton related systems to have privacy by default. Currently, when creating a uservoice account to access the Proton feature suggestion platform, my Gravatar information is connected to uservoice by default and displayed publicly.

    Connecting uservoice to Gravatar should be done with full informed consent, not automatically.

  17. 2FA by hardware key only

    Being able to add physical Fido token is great but I would like that the requirement for TOTP to be removed.

    TOTO is quite often software based and software = surface of attack. Physical token allow air gap and are very secure and I don’t need TOTP personally, it makes my account vulnerable.

    Also just like Apple, a minimum of 2 physical tokens should be enforced since having a single token is putting you at risk of you loose it. 2 or more should be the rule of thumb.

    A. Now wrong ?

    B. No really helpful in the way it is worded.

    The idea of such a page is to guide you from where you are (it does not mention this? e.g in the web interface) to where you want to be (it does not either give a useful link OR the "steps" you need to take (or what would be useful) a LINK.

    In fact the way to the "Request a Feature" is found by clicking on you name top-right and looking down the…

  19. Privacy focused git repository for open source Proton development

    Replace Proton GitHub repositories with a more privacy focused alternative, like Codeberg or a Proton hosted Gitlab.
    GitHub is less and less user and privacy-friendly, as they do not tolerate aliased addresses, like those from Proton/SimpleLogin (!).
    Also, things like AI training clearly make a respecting git repository for the development of Proton apps even more attractive.

  20. Allow VPN auto connect to be turned off

    Proton VPN on an iPhone will not allow auto connect to be turned off. The only way to stop using the VPN is to uninstall Proton VPN. There are times when connected to a network that does not have internet access, there is a need to turn off the Proton VPN. I have also had problems when using the hot spot on my iPhone that I need the VPN turned off. For example when using the hot spot to allow my laptop to connect to a corporate VPN.
