Improve Proton's Open source development
Proton has two great assets, the privacy respecting side and its Open source orientation.
However, some apps/services still aren't published openly (Calendar app for Android/iOS, amongst others).
So :
1. Make all apps and services open source
2. Activate issues on repositories
3. Invite community to actively participate in the development of the ecosystem
=> Proton apps become more reliable, with faster feature development and availability and it allows for greater transparency and sense of trust from the customers and community.85 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'.

Tried opening and closing the email. No change in behavior.
Tried scrolling from top to bottom of the email. No change in behavior.

Addition of "Copy" feature to filter definitions
Currently, filter definitions only facilitate moving an email to another folder. An addition of the possibility to COPY an email to a folder (mutually exclusive of MOVE) would be most welcome. Quite often I wish to retain the original email in the inbox, but additionally auto-copy said email to a specific folder. Perhaps this feature exists already and I have missed it?

Online help documentation needs updated
Online Help Documentation needs to be updated. I have experienced incorrect online help documentation during numerous searches. My last experience was with Lumo. The search results were inaccurate when I needed to change email settings and add a new email address. I had to figure it out on my own.
If a feature of any Proton product gets changed in any way, the documentation needs to be updated and posted the same time of the product update patches get released. That is good business practice.

Accomodation
Dear Proton Team,
I am a deaf user who relies heavily on visual communication tools and AI assistance to read, understand, and compose written content. Lumo’s AI capabilities are essential for me to interact with digital information independently.
However, the current pricing model makes these indispensable features effectively unavailable to many deaf users who cannot afford the additional cost. This creates a disparity in accessibility: a tool designed to aid communication becomes a financial obstacle for the very community that needs it most.
I respectfully request that Proton consider one (or more) of the following accommodations:
A discounted or free…

[Lumo] "Get Lumo Plus" button in the toolbar should direct to page where benefits of subscription are explained
Minor suggestion regarding user experience, but:
Current implementation: "Get Lumo Plus" button takes to account management and subscription page - directly to subscription. This does not provide context or information about the benefits that the Lumo Plus subscription provides to the user. User needs to manually search for the page what the Lumo subscription will offer.
Suggested solution: Clicking the button opens a modal in the same page or a separate link to a page that provides more information about Lumo Plus' benefits.

Partially free accounts having the option to use the shortened email
Why shouldn't a partially free account use the shortened email? What I mean by that is that since you create an account, you have a pm.me email address just to receive emails. When someone subscribes to a product separately, like Proton Pass, on my occasion, it would have been better to have the option to use at least the shortened email to send messages. Next month I want to subscribe to the VPN so having to pay for 2 products, shouldn't I be eligible to use the shortened email. This is a suggestion, but people who understand better please let…

displaying emails on the smartphone application
Adapt the display of email content for reading on a smartphone.
It is clearly easier to read a "gmail" email than a "protonmail" one. On the latter you have to zoom in and scroll from left to right to read the content.

Transparent Design
Not exactly a feature, but I would love to see the Proton apps in a kind of transparent design philosophy. On the website, there are pictures of, for example Proton Mail, where messages are highlighted in transparent and a bit see through. There are so many examples of it on the other apps too, on the website and the pictures of those Proton Products. I think it would be great, if the UI matches those transparent elements, like they’re on the website!
PS: Great work you guys do, love your products!2 votes -
Bad Plex integration

Provide public bug trackers for all projects.
You already provide a public feature request tracker, with UserVoice. For some repositories on GitHub, you leave issues enabled, which allows users to publicly report bugs (where they aren't restricted to function as discussions). Extend that capability to all repositories, so that users with diagnostic knowledge can report bugs that aren't necessarily able to submit PRs for (often due to outdated code).

Bad delete behavior in Proton Calendar
Like Google Calendar, Proton Calendar sometimes exhibits data corruption bugs. Immediately after deleting an event in the Proton Calendar iOS app, the event reappears.
