Hide the unread count for spam
Currently, the Spam category shows a count of unread emails. This is kind of attention-grabbing when scanning the sidebar for what I should be paying attention to, so it would be nice to either not show it at all, or have an option not to show it.
The same goes for Trash emails, these things should be more “out of the way”.
This is especially annoying in the mobile app, because there is no way to hide the archive/spam/trash/all-mails like there is on web.
There are several requests and/or hacks for this on Reddit:

Emergency access - read-only, customizing what they can see/access
1) https://proton.me/blog/emergency-access nor https://proton.me/support/emergency-access explains if emergency contact can change account password/key which they have accessed (taking over account). It does not explain any other protections.
2) Also the account owner should be able to limit emergency user access to read-only, maybe just for a limited time like 1-2 years, during which owner has ability to reset the emergency user access and they have to request again.
3) Owner should be able to limit access only to some services, like for example Drive or even certain folder of a Drive or Mail. This possibility I have not seen announced in…

Access to Proton Bridge cache offline ? (with full-text caching)
Could it be possible to make Proton Bridge cache accessible offline ?
The idea behind it is to be able to have a full cache of all mails text contents (or at least for the last x months).
It would be helpful as the current alternative is to do that client-side which will store it usually unencrypted (if i'm not mistaken) whereas Proton Bridge cache is still encrypted.
The use-case would be to ensure an always up to date, always encrypted, local "backup access" to the mail box content.
... but i probably ignore some security protocol constrains :)3 votes -
Consistent Cross-Platform Functionality
Proton apps should offer consistent functionality across mobile, desktop, and the web. Currently, several important actions are only available in one version, forcing users to switch platforms unnecessarily.
Examples:
Proton Drive: File sharing cannot be initiated from the mobile or desktop app and requires opening the web version. Sharing should be possible directly within the apps.
Calendar: Sharing a calendar with another Proton user currently works only on desktop, not on mobile.

Mail: Bad dark mode UX for email signatures
Proton Mail corrupts my own signature when composing emails in dark mode. For no good reason, signatures draft as light mode blocks, in an otherwise entirely dark mode platform.

Proton Sheets - does not support array-like indexing, example it does not have a way to dynamic skip rows automatically.
the formula for this is :
=SUMPRODUCT(CHOOSE(MOD(SEQUENCE(COUNTA(D10:D19))-1,2)+1, 4, 1), D10:D19)
to multiply odd elements by 4 before sum the product
=SUMPRODUCT(IF(ISODD(SEQUENCE(ROWS(D10:D19))), 4, 1), D10:D19)
or sum the product of two arrays but IF is not expanded to a array
Both should work but none do.2 votes -
Real contact groups for the Family Plan
We have migrated with our family from Google Workspace to Proton and expected to have the contact group feature in the family plan like described in https://proton.me/support/groups.
So like we used to do with Google Groups where we could add family members to a group and assign one or more e-mail addresses to this group so everybody in this group recieves a copy and can send on behalf of this group address. For instance myfamily@mydomain.com.
Both https://proton.me/support/groups and https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/284483-proton-mail-calendar/suggestions/7695942-contact-groups mention this. The group feature in the Proton Family Plan is very limited right now so please add this…5 votes -

Export folder structure for folders within folders
When I go to export mail to .MBOX files using the ProtonMail Import-Export app, it would be great to have the option to export the entire folder structure, which the chosen folder is located in.
For example, the following folder structure:
1. Root Folder
2. Sub Folder
3. Full Folder (.MBOX)
Here, the root, sub and full folder would be exported in the original order as seen in Proton Mail.I like to meticulously sort my mail into multiple folders depending on my need, and I like to keep backups of my mail.
If you could implement this, it would…8 votes -
Netshild in Extension / Dedicated IPs / RAM Servers
The Proton VPN apps are very comprehensive, but the browser extensions aren’t—we need NetShield.
Proton has formed an incredible partnership with the Vivaldi browser, and we need to explore this partnership further so we can work together to build a browser-based VPN with the highest possible level of privacy that’s accessible to everyone.
I’ve been using VPNs for over 10 years and have been with Proton for a short time; the focus on privacy is impeccable. I would humbly suggest RAM-based servers.
We need dedicated IPs that bypass or reduce annoying CAPTCHAs; this should also improve streaming.
I’m very happy…1 vote -
Proton Pass: Bad credentials autofill
Proton Pass often fails to present relevant login entry results when selecting credentials to populate individual login form fields.
Specifically, Proton Pass search results fails to include entries that were accessed moments ago.
For example, the current browser page should automatically trigger corresponding login entries for that domain. But they often don't. So you have to manually search for the right login entry. This happens with mobile browsers.
For example, you can select a login item for the username field. But then the login entry fails to appear in the recent list when populating the password field.
There's a very…

https://proton.me/pass/download should have a single link to install all the desktop apps
I just had to re-install my Windows 11 Professional system because of OneDrive corruption ( spent 4 days trying to save this thing and finally just backed up what I could to an external USB drive and blasted this with a clean install ) and now trying to get all my Proton applications re-installed on this desktop. ( Avoid OneDrive, especially when it MOVES things instead of just a backup and sync... without notifying the users. No network ( for ANY REASON ), no files !
What we really need is a SINGLE LINK so we can install all the…2 votes -
Proton Drive custom page view/order of files and docs
Proton Drive custom page view/order.
Example: when on Proton Drive first page, with all my folders, I use alphabetical order a-z. Then when I open a folder, in many situations I have a long list of documents, but I'm looking for the newest or oldest one, so I change the page view/order accordingly. However, then when I return to the first page all the folders have changed also to oldest or newest - and are not listed alphabetically anymore...Would it be possible to keep the view per page or folder, so that it doesn't always have to be changed…

Rename mobile apps
The current apps on Android all have the prefix "Proton <App>". Personally, I'm not a fan. My app drawer has all apps under the letter P and it doesn't matter what function the app has. I would expect Drive under D, Mail under M, Calender under C etc.
I would like the apps to be renamed to e.g. "Drive by Proton", translated to each language so the apps show up where the other apps with the corresponding function are.

Proton Authenticator copy next code
Currently when pressing/clicking an account, the current totp code is being copied to the clipboard (regardless of where you click).
It would be great if it was possible to copy the next totp code to the clipboard when pressing/clicking the next code (and for the current one, click that one in stead). It'll make it easier when you have to switch between apps and the timer has almost counted down to 0.

Parent Folder displays also all Sub Folders content
Today when I select a parent folder I expect to see all the emails that are sorted into any of its sub folders, but it's not displaying those emails. I only see any emails sorted into that specific parent folder.

Server capacity & disconnection issues
Hello ProtonVPN Support Team,
I’m using ProtonVPN free and facing serious problems while connecting:
Because nearby servers (e.g., Netherlands, Poland, Romania) are often full, I’m frequently routed to very distant servers like Singapore or Japan, which causes high latency.
While connected, sometimes the server suddenly reaches capacity or, due to my modem’s same-SSID issue (2.4 GHz / 5 GHz switching), the connection drops and I’m forced onto another server. This makes online games disconnect instantly.
When I try to switch servers multiple times, the client enforces a long cooldown, which forces me to wait unnecessarily.
Since free servers are very…
