  1. Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) for Drive, Pass, and wherever applicable

    RBAC would be useful for personal accounts (i.e. families) but particularly for businesses in which role assignments are standard management and security practice. I'm not sure what the most user-friendly way is to handle the CRUDing of roles or similar operations, however, I think it should be possible to smoothly integrate this in the current experience.

  2. Crowdsource funding for Proton Spreadsheet. I (and others) would give $100 right now.

    A spreadsheet is the only thing keep google customers from infusing cash to Proton. This is a business error. Instead of only votes, create crowdfunded initiatives. I would give $100 immediately (I'm poor) to fund this initiative. Voting is nice, crowdsourced money to do a job that you know takes x amount of hours. No brainer.

  3. Change year

    I'd like to be able to select and change the year (in the top bar and on the side panel) and get there easily. For example, an annual review or conference, a vaccination reminder at age 10, etc.

  4. Archival options for deceased or otherwise historically significant accounts

    There's an internet activist who's on the way to expose serious community and structural scandals in a well-known encyclopedia platform which could very well become another Epstein moment if they got their wish. In anticipation of that they said on X that they're gonna voluntarily donate their web accounts and so on for congressional investigations and subsequent archival preservation one day.

    https://x.com/Liltjay08Foo/status/1742507448512978988

    Whether it's crazy for you is an open question but inspired by that, I want to suggest that Protonmail offers options for those who want their accounts to be archived/locked forever upon death which can either be proven…

  5. Auto-Reply Per Email Address

    It would be great to be able to setup an auto replay per email address instead of account wide.

    Use case: autoreply only from work address when out of office but not from personal address.

    Thanks!

  6. 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.

    Create 3rd party login service such as Google's 3rd Party login. This would also help drive adoption of proton.

  8. Filter to hide Archived emails when viewing Labels

    Even tho I have archived an email, it shows up when it has a Label and I select to display all emails with that Label. I would love a new Filter option so I can display or hide Archived emails when viewing emails linked to a Label.

  11. Silent calendar notifications

    Proton Calendar notifications are useless. No sounds. No haptics. It's way too easy to miss important events. Don't bother. Use Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, Outlook, ANYTHING but Proton Calendar.

  13. One CLI for all of Proton Services (for humans and AI agents)

    Feature Request: proton — One CLI for All Proton Services (for Humans & AI Agents)
    Proton's suite of privacy-first services — Mail, Drive, Calendar, VPN, Pass, and Docs — is fragmented across separate apps with no unified programmatic interface. This makes it nearly impossible to automate workflows, build developer tooling, or integrate Proton services into AI agent pipelines.
    The ask is simple: a single, composable command-line interface — proton — that covers all Proton services under one roof.
    Why this matters
    Power users want to script their workflows. Developers want to build on top of Proton without reverse-engineering private APIs.…

  15. Add a function in the settings to automatically add "Request Read Receipt" to email

    It would improve convenience to not click "request read receipt" every time you write an email. A function that does that for you automatically would be great.

  16. Adopt WEBCAT for all web-based applications

    The whole existence of Proton revolves around a trustworthy, easy-to-use suite of end-to-end encrypted applications. But one thing is to use Proton's digitally signed mobile applications, another is to use Proton's web-based applications.

    So I suggest the early adoption of WEBCAT, a Freedom of the Press Foundation project currently in alpha.

    From their website (https://webcat.tech/):

    """
    The Problem

    Websites can change their code at any time, and HTTPS alone does not guarantee that every user receives the same, intended web application. WEBCAT addresses this by enabling signed delivery and transparency log–backed distribution of participating web applications, allowing end users…

  17. Have the same features on the iOS Proton Mail app as on the Windows app

    I really need to be able to manage my filters and reorganize my folders on the iOS app.
    This is possible on the Windows app.
    When a feature is released somewhere, it should be implemented in all apps.

  18. Add links to Simple Login and Standard Notes to Proton App Shortcuts menu

    The Proton App Shortcuts menu includes a link to any app you have access to, but it’s missing links to those described on proton.me > Products menu as “More from Proton”: Simple Login and Standard Notes.

    (Oddly, “More from Proton” also includes Lumo AI, yet that does appear in the App Shortcuts menu.)

    It’d be nice to have everything available in one menu. Perhaps a toggle could be added to Account Settings > Appearance:

    [X] Add Simple Login shortcut to App Shortcuts menu
    [_] Add Standard Notes shortcut to App Shortcuts menu

    Then I don’t need to go dig out/Google…

  19. Utilize the Privacy Pass protocol

    https://blog.kagi.com/kagi-privacy-pass
    https://www.privacyguides.org/articles/2025/04/21/privacy-pass/
    Privacy Pass is a protocol that allows people to cryptographically prove they have access to a service without revealing who they are. I think Proton could be able to use this in really cool ways, for example to prevent Proton from correlating Proton VPN activity to users, or to use SimpleLogin aliases without Proton being able to correlate the alias from the original email.

  20. Proton SMS Forwarder

    What's the point of having @passmail.net aliases to hide&forward e-mails to your @proton mailbox if you can get spammed on your phone number registered on the same website ?

    I'd want a Proton SMS Forwarder app that would have the following features :
    1° Transfer SMS, MMS and push notifications to my proton mailbox / to a dedicated proton cloud / to another phone ;
    2° Transfer through smtp / api / WIFI (not onty through 4G/5G, except for MMS obviously)
    3° App on Phone + PC Desktop version with a SIMCard Reader / eSim
    4° Where possible : possibility…
