Update without logging out
The recent ProtonMail for Android 4.0.4 update logged me out and I missed some important emails. I only realized the update had logged me out when I wondered "why haven't I received any email for the past few days?" and opened the app.
Please don't log users out when you update your apps. Or if that's unavoidable, at least send a notification to say something like "ProtonMail was just updated and we had to log you out. Please log back in so you don't miss any notifications"

Don't obscure date/time when hovering over message
Please don't obscure the date/time of receipt when hovering over a message in the inbox. At the moment, hovering over a message brings up the open, trash, archive, and snooze buttons, obscuring the date and time the message was received. Just add those buttons next to that info.
Thanks!

Configure if mail or calendar desktop app opens first
It would be nice to choose, if you wanna start Mail or Calendar in the new Windows App. Much better would be to have a separate shortcut for each of them.

Ability for subscribers to disable ads completely
I think an app that's supposed to be running almost always, should not be disrupting the use of the device.
I see an unusual activity whenever there's offers, where Proton VPN icon shows up on the taskbar. I clicked it to end up knowing that it's just an "ad" for the ongoing offer that I won't be trying.
It doesn't end up there, whenever I need to open the app during the time an offer is live, I have to take an extra step of closing off a pop-up of the said ad. I can't even disable it.
I was…

Split tunneling for Fire TV APP and Flatpak
Add split tunneling to the app for amazon devices and have the app remember the settings. This is feature that many other VPN services have. I realize that it is included on other operating systems. If it is included, I haven't been able to find it.
Have an official Flatpak with the GUI. I could be wrong, but having the VPN installed on the OS makes the browser extensions redundant. Wouldn't that free up developers to focus on other things like wireguard?

Allow for annotating emails
The ability to take a quick note that gets saved to an email or highlight sections of an email would be an excellent tool for keeping track of a wide variety of things. Annotations/notes would be visible only to the user.
This example came to mind when I purchased four game keys for friends and I lost track of which keys I gave to friends and who had accepted them. The ability to quickly annotate in the email I received whom received which key would've been a huge help. Similarly, highlighting key parts of a long email or tasks that…

Contact support with privacy preserving option such as PGP key
Add a way for customers to contact your support team in privacy-preserving ways, such as, enabling the use of PGP keys. This is important because when zendesk or (insert customer support platform name here) suffers a data breach, sensitive information is less likely to be leaked. This could be easily done by allowing users to contact the support team signing the email with their own PGP keys.

Perspective on Proton's Product Development
I observe that a predominant number of individuals are expressing similar desires, primarily focused on new additions to the Proton product line. These range from requests for a Proton-managed and optimized SearXNG instance, functioning as a search engine, to surprising appeals for a new operating system.
While some of these ideas possess merit, they seem somewhat disconnected from the actual needs of both individuals and businesses. As a Visionary account holder, I utilize Proton to address the requirements of both my family and my company. In both contexts, there are more critical features missing in Proton's offerings than the introduction…

Allow Custom fonts - for improved readability and accessibility (and power users)
Provide the option of custom fonts on Mobile/Web and font size control.
This technically can fall under parts of the "theme", however it is also part of accessibility.As a User, I want to have the most clear fonts possible to make reading my emails easier, so that I use this app more.
As a power user, I have seen people struggling to find extremely readable fonts like the old Blackberry Font from the BB-Alpha font.
Whilst you would attract more business/power users from this throwback font, I think it might be easier to let them choose/add the font for…

Clipboard manager & sync
It would be good to have the ability to securely synchronize the clipboard between devices. Sometimes we need to copy an email, password, TOTP crypto wallet address, ... on one app and paste it in another. The copy/paste can sometimes be cross devices. There are currently very limited options for end-to-end encrypted clipboard synchronization services.
The tool could also keep an encrypted history of all data, instead of relying on the OS.
Such tool could be a standalone app, or it could be integrated into the native apps of Proton Drive or Pass (when it gets a native app).4 votes -
Connection attempt notifications (even when wrong password)
I have recently been the target of malicious persons who managed to access personal accounts (Proton non included) and I thought it would be nice if there were an option to be warned of every connection attempt to my Proton account.

Biometric lock / pattern / pin needs to be independent of the phone system.
The biometric lock needs to be independent from the phone built in one. The same way that banking apps do it so access to the phone does not automatically mean access to the Proton services.

Add "Snooze" and "Add to Tasks" options to Inbox
We use Office 365 at work and I've finally noticed two features that are critical to maintaining a clean, sane inbox: Snooze and Add to Tasks (or whatever o365 calls them -- that's Google's name for the same features).
Use cases:
Snooze: I want to come back to this email later -- get it out of my primary inbox for now; put it back in my primary inbox on [date/time]; let me view snoozed emails at any time (and un-snooze them if necessary)
Add to Tasks (requires a Task list feature): I want to turn this email thread into a…
