Focus on functionality and feature parity on existing products
Proton should really focus on building with feature parity in mind. Most of their products work differently depending on the OS and that's not a good experience. Plenty of people use different OS (for example both Windows and Mac computers, the wife with Android, the husband with iPhone and the tech kid on Linux.
STOP overmoderating, STOP spreading thin your resources and FOCUS.

Request for better UserVoice standards for posters and moderators
NOTE: I want to make it clear that I will give credit where credit is due, for example seeing examples of truly excellent engagement, such as the detailed explanation for the 'Metadata encryption' idea, which was transparent and thoughtful. I also had a fantastic experience with Proton Docs (Drive) customer service, who the agent (who I will not name for PRIVACY) did a great job of assisting me. This shows Proton can communicate effectively.

Focus on existing products
I think Proton is already spreading itself too thin with all these different products, yet there are lots of things to improve on the existing ones.

Improve Uservoice, please...
This is asking for a dark mode, better UI that of proton mail in quality, a warning that twitter(x) is a VERY bad website for privacy, and fixing the system for icons, the site that proton uses for icons is according to my source of "Blacklight" by Themarckup contains multiple trackers including evading trackers, it also lets google track you. So I propose that we flock over to a different way of getting icons or at least a disclaimer to use Tor before acquiring an icon.
3 votesPlease raise individual requests on Uservoice.
It is not useful for voting to have a mass of things bundled together.
When it comes to things like "better UI" please be specific, what could be better? What would it look like?

Fowarding Mails from Gmail contradicts the reason why I switched to Proton.
I want to do everything I can to get more free storage space. However, the forwarding from Gmail to Proton means that the systems from Google know my new email addresses. I prefer to manually switch my accounts to the new email addresses.
2 votesYour Proton Mail address won't ever be revealed to Gmail to protect your privacy.

Prioritization
Hi Proton Team!
I really like all the new products and ideas that are implemented. I appreciate how this is mostly due to people in this forum actively requesting stuff and you listening! Bravo.
BUT! Could you please mainly focus on the boring task of improving your existing products before rolling out new stuff? There are so many important features being discussed here that are just sitting and waiting since 2023...For example:
- Mac Folder Sync
- Separated Mailboxes
- Improved Docs
I understand the excitement of launching new products, but a solid foundation matters more than a wide product range. Quality over…

It's time for change. Is Proton listening?
Quick look.
As a long-time Proton user, I'm concerned by systemic "UserNeglect" and transparency issues. UserVoice ideas, like staying AI-free (425 votes), were [DECLINED ❌] just before Proton launched its Lumo AI tool. A Proton Admin on Reddit even contradicted Lumo's logging claims, and the official website still hasn't been corrected, showing a severe lack of follow-through. More issues like spam on the forums, unclosed completed ideas, and responses that never come make this an unignorable issue.
My detailed UserVoice post on these issues gets minimal attention, and my Reddit post is stuck awaiting mod approval – ironically highlighting the…

Improve Proton Mail!
Please improve Proton Mail - fast!!! If Proton had a forum, I'd ask this there. Ever since the update with the new UI, emails take FOREVER to open. 5+ minutes. I cannot use Proton Mail like this on a daily basis. Please find a fix for this! The new Proton Mail app is supposed to be faster and improved, but this just made it slower and worse. Please fix this soon!

No US social media platforms for news, discussions, etc.
I would appreciate it if feature releases, the latest news on privacy and tips on online security were not announced and discussed on US platforms such as X and Reddit. These are private-sector platforms, and the US administration is using its economic and military power to prevent regulations on American social media platforms that would protect EU European users.

Proton Mail down: "Internal server error"
Proton Mail fails to load. I see an "Internal server error" error message. This started happening within the hour.
Meanwhile, the official Proton Services Status page blindly reports "All Systems Operational." There's a disconnect between the Mail service and the status report.

Proton UserVoice 404 upon idea submission
Proton UserVoice initially rendered a 404 error page, instead of my idea, upon selecting the Post idea button.
Using ProtonVPN, in case that matters.

Add a check for updates button in desktop apps
As it is right now, you have no way of knowing if the app is checking for updates or not.
1 voteThe apps are always automatically checking for and updating themselves (on Windows & macOS) -- if unsure you can always reinstall the app and compare version numbers before and after, however you will receive app updates regularly across all of our apps by default.

I'm using a tracking protection app on my mobile. This one finds some tracking from Adobe in the protonmail app everyday.
Can you verify Adobe tracking is effective or not ? It would be a bad news

I am unable to access your Help center Form to report a hacking issue. The form disappears right after it appears.
I actually need Help Center assistance with a hacking issue, but each time I access your Help Center form it immediately disappears. Also, when I phoned your Geneva phone number. the woman I spoke with only speaks French and could not locate someone who speaks English.

Proton Uservoice Interface
Dear Proton, I hope you guys can change the Proton uservoice interface. This site has an outdated design. I love design on other Proton services, but not for this site.
1 voteThanks for your request. UserVoice is a third-party service and, as such, this is not possible.
