  1. Reduce # of clicks to move a message

    Hi there! When I highlight a message and click the "Move" option, a list of folders is presented, requiring a second click on the chosen folder and a third click on the Move button.

    It would be faster to double-click the appropriate folder in order to move the message. Alternatively, as you type in the filter box, when the correct folder name is displayed, allow the user to hit the Enter key to move the item to the displayed folder.

    It takes a cursor move + 2 extra clicks to move an item to the desired folder. Having used Gmail…

  2. 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…

  3. Protocol specific to Proton

    Why doesn't Proton develop its own protocol instead of relying on another protocol to counter the blocking of its applications in some countries?

    Please create your own protocol.

  4. Send Email As Group

    Send Email As Group:The ability for authorized members of a Proton Mail Group to send emails as the group. Currently Proton Mail Groups support the receiving of emails through the group email alias but not the sending of mails as the group alias. This feature exists, by contrast, in the analogous Google Workspace group feature.

  5. Landscape mode for Proton Calendar

    Please add landscape mode for Proton Calendar. For tablet users, this is vital. For a calendar, landscape mode makes it much easier to see all events. In horizontal mode, many events are being squeezed on screen and not shown. It is very annoying having to constantly change the direction of one's tablet, when multitasking between the calendar and other apps.

    Other Proton apps already have horizontal mode and it works great.

  7. Need a different "Login Detected" notification icon. The current icon is the "mail" icon.

    When I get a new login detected notification on my phone it displays the email icon. I think it's a new message so ignore it. When in fact it's someone trying to login to my account and I need to do something. Can you change the icon so it's something else so I know it's a Proton Official Notification and I need to pay attention.

  8. Make Duo/Family true shared plans

    The idea is simple – allow for shared email addresses within Duo/Family plans, which anyone in the family group can access. Allow for true shared documents/folders in Drive, that anyone who they are shared with has equal access – at the moment, shared folders cannot be accessed through Finder (macOS), nor made available offline. To attach a file from a shared folder, the sharee must first download it from the web app, which makes a mockery of using cloud storage in the first place.

    It seems that Duo/Family is really just a pricing tool, not a shared family group in…

  10. 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…

  11. Inactive account policy - keep account when deleting data

    Hello proton team

    I have a new suggestion regarding the inactive account policy. Instead of permanently deleting a user's account if they haven't logged in for a year, I propose an alternative approach.

    The idea is to delete their data while keeping the account itself, which would minimize costs for Proton. In the event that the user logs in again at a later time, they would login to an empty account (like if they just created it), but at least they won't lose their email address.

    A lot of users keep a protonmail account as a recovery email for other…

  12. Bad Proton platform interaction with ICS email attachments

    Proton Mail often fails to present UI controls to accept/decline calendar events.

    This happens for about 10% of ICS attachments, depending on the service that generates the event data.

    The Proton Calendar website permits these attachment files to be uploaded and accepted.

    The Proton Calendar mobile app, such as for iOS/iPadOS, fails to support ICS file uploads.

    This causes unnecessary friction for mobile users.

    Please fix the mobile Proton Mail and Proton Calendar apps to handle the very same ICS data as the Proton Calendar website.

  13. Proton Authenticator Android App Lock and TOTP Visualization

    1.Currently, In Android, Proton Authenticator can only be locked using Biometrics. It would be awesome if it could also be locked with PIN, like Proton Pass.
    2. The option to hide TOTP codes works as intended. However, it's useful only when copying and pasting codes by tapping. If I need to read a code for a specific entry to then write on my PC, it won't be useful. Adding a way to reveal a code for a specific entry on tap, would make it better!

  14. Allow payment for Proton subscription plans before the due date

    My renewal for Proton Duo is about a month away. I was looking on the Proton website for a way to pay for the next 12 months before the renewal date, but to no avail.

  16. Proton Sheets - allow day/month/year formatting of dates

    Currently the only option available seems to be the US month/day/year format.

    Funnily, enough, pasting a day/month/year date from a google sheet seems to fix this, but I don't wanna live like this!

  19. 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.

  20. Allow importing multiple events into Proton Calendar from .ics attachments in Proton Mail

    Currently, if we have an .ics attachment with a single event in a Proton mail email, we are able to import that into Proton Calendar.
    However, .ics attachments that contain multiple events are not yet supported, and show this message: "This ICS file contains more than one event. Please download it and import the events in Proton Calendar". This introduces a fair amount of friction.

    I get these quite a lot as I often book train journeys where both the outbound and return journeys are sent to me as two calendar events within one ICS attachment.

    Please change the Proton…
