Support Google Takeout for data imports (add to Easy Switch)
TL;DR: Easy Switch can auto-forward emails, then move your contacts and calendar. But what about:
Google Drive files, Google Photos, Google Password Manager, Google Finance, Gemini?
We should be able to move those data into Proton services Proton Drive, Proton Pass, Proton Wallet and Lumo quite easily with Google Takeout.
And what about autoforwarding from Outlook and Apple or sign in with Apple?
But we can’t.Dear Proton Community and Development Team,
We propose an enhancement to Proton’s “Easy Switch” technology to maximize user acquisition, engagement, and a more comprehensive way to move data to a more private service, while…

Lumo Formatting
When displaying equations it gives them in a very awkward format. It is not easily readable, and does not support superscript, subscript, or fractions.

Notify users of new features
I learn about the latest Proton releases in my news app as a tech article on some blog or web site. Why aren't users notified of new features or new products until 2-3 days after they're released?

Please let us inline AVIF images in the message body just like JPEG and PNG
Proton Mail lets users preview AVIF image attachments natively, but it doesn't let us inline the image into the message body like we can with JPEG and PNG. How come? Seems simple enough!
So look, AVIF is a modern image container standard universally supported by all modern browsers and operating systems and has been for years. It's not nearly as ubiquitous as JPEG or PNG, but it is significantly more efficient with its compression algorithm. An AVIF image is significantly smaller and better-looking than an equivalent JPEG, and even lossless AVIFs have better compression than PNG. It is an all-around…

Fix Standard Notes quirks
Standard Notes keeps accumulating more and more unaddressed quirks:
https://github.com/standardnotes/forum/issues
Please go ahead and resolve more of these expediently.
A separate Proton Notes app would be nice, but it's been a year and I don't want to hold my breath on a rewrite. Incremental enhancements to the existing Standard Notes system would be lovely.

Drive only subscription
Hey! I know this is something you'll have to really think through inside the company, but I'm sharing my case anyway!
I'm sorry if this idea was already suggested, but I couldn't find it.
I'd like a Drive-only subscription, just like we have an email-only one. I'd like to start using your services, but I already pay for another VPN and use another password manager. So paying for all of those if I'm not using them seems like a lot.
That is it. Thanks for considering this!

Don’t append HTML signatures when replying to plain text emails.
I have an HTML signature that includes linked text with a call to action, like, “Click here to see my work.” When relying to plain text messages, the signature is included but without the link. There should be an option for a plain text signature, or “Do not use in plain text.”

Patronizing updates
Proton just released a cosmetic update today in Mail without fixing Unread filter persistence. Nobody needed a new CSS theme. Please fix old bugs.

Calendar: Better Z axis layering of concurrent events
When several events start at the same time, then Proton Calendar has a nasty quirk: It narrows the event title columns to just 2-3 characters wide, making it hard to read the event names.
Please use Z axis layering. It's okay to stagger the events or use other collapsing techniques. Just don't narrow the title width so much.

"That idea has been deleted" - censorship without cause
Why create a user forum only to censor its ideas?
If it's obscene or totally irrelevant: yes, clear the spam.
If it is a legitimate idea, don't wipe it: decline it with brief explanation.This is a shocking find that dishonors proton integrity.

Lumo — Add a One-Click "Burn and Delete" Button for Messages to Enhance Privacy
As a privacy-focused AI service, Lumo aligns perfectly with Proton's commitment to security and user control. To further enhance this, I’d love to see a one-click "burn and delete" button for all messages, similar to what DuckAI offers. Currently, deleting messages requires navigating through settings and multiple clicks, which feels a bit cumbersome and slightly out of step with the privacy-first ethos.
This small feature would make it effortless to wipe message history instantly, reinforcing Lumo’s focus on user privacy and security.

Mail Bridge im Gratis Account
ich möchte von Google, Microsoft, GMX usw zu Proton wechseln.
Im Gratis Test Account ist es nicht möglich die ProtonBridge für Mail-Clients zu testen.
Ohne vorher zu testen, werde ich nicht wechseln. Schade, so verlieren sie potenzielle Kunden.2 votes -
Customized AI Ethics, taylored to the User
The current AI ethics is the standard CYA mode to protect proton from being sued. That is great for Proton, sorta, a waste of time for the rest of us, which lowers the value of Protons product. Having a private and encrypted AI session is meaningless if it isnt truly private, and not have Proton's lawyers looking over my shoulder.
I propose customized settings, complete with disclaimers and liability waivers if necessary. This will allow both side of the morality spectrum to be better served with this tool.
As it stands now, your tool is useless to a good percentage…

Desktop Application & Chrome extension integration
Proton services and products do not integrate seamlessly and currently clash with each other. This is an issue across multiple services and not just a Proton VPN issue.
The issue specific to Proton VPN;
If both desktop application and browser extension is active at the same time, no connection is available in the browser (Vivaldi in this case, which offers built-in support for Proton VPN).Solution;
The browser extension should detect if the desktop application has an active VPN connection before attempting to create its own VPN connection. Similarly, the desktop application should detect if a browser extension is currently…3 votes -
Simplify 'Move to Folder' Button
When I want to move an email to a custom folder, I have to select the folder from the drop-down menu and press 'Apply'. Rather, simply pressing the name of the custom folder should move that email to that folder, thereby removing the need to press 'Apply'.
