Acquire Obsidian! Would be a game changers for full privacy suite
New Documents feature really opened an opportunity for me to get away from Google and Microsoft and enjoy privacy.
Its a great start but limited. Just throwing out the idea, what if Proton acquired or partnered with Obsidian https://obsidian.md/ another privacy first organization.
This would be a game changer. Please consider.

Android Device encryption and protection
I think it would be a game changer if proton would get in more involved with Android devices. Android is after all as they claim allegedly open source.. but Google it is let me have all your data and we will do this for you?? The biggest thing Google claims to be able to encrypt your entire device from your Google account in their password manager section of security. Why not be able to encrypt it by the best proton?? Full device encryption???? More integration into the Android ecosystem. or even something similar to Graphene OS?? If proton were ever…

PC Encryption Similar To MS BitLocker
It would be helpful to be able to encrypt PC hard drives using Proton encryption rather than using MS BitLocker.
It would also be useful to be able to encrypt individual files using Proton so they can be sent via P2P without the need to store the information online.

Proton Rumble channel to mirror YouTube
Proton should create an official Rumble channel and upload its YouTube videos there as well.
Over the past several years, Rumble has established itself as a YouTube alternative that is solidly pro-freedom, anti-censorship, and NOT OWNED BY GOOGLE!
It might be necessary to be on YouTube to attract the most eyeballs, but many people who use platforms like Rumble to distance themselves from Big Tech are the same users who will resonate with Proton's privacy-conscious mission.
The amount of extra effort it takes to upload content to a 2nd platform is miniscule compared to the time and expense invested in…

Make a deal with Fairphone to become the default digital workspace provider for their /e/OS phones
Proton should make a deal with Fairphone to become the default digital workspace provider for their phones that run /e/OS. It would be a great way to promote the Proton app ecosystem, while also promoting Fairphone. Ensuring that your apps run well on /e/OS would mean that Proton provides support for most deGoogled versions of Android.
Having the Proton apps be the default digital workspace provider on the Fairphone 6 with /e/OS would get a lot of media coverage. You might even be able to convince Fairphone to provide a promotion in which Fairphone users get a discounted introductory rate…

Create Virtual Hosting Services
Would it be in the pipe line to create and offer basic Virtualization service or go into partnership with someone like Digital ocean where we could spin up simple Linux boxes to act as a jump box. (For those with Proton subscriptions)

Encryption keys
Would it be possible to implement a function for re-encryption with a new key, both for email keys and the account key?
Also, one more thing – it would be great to have the option to reinitialize Proton Drive or Lumo AI directly from the settings. Currently, changing keys requires contacting support, which could be avoided with this feature.

Adding Arc Browser to Proton’s Privacy-Focused Portfolio
The Arc Browser represents an ideal complement to the Proton ecosystem due to its strong commitment to privacy, security, and innovative user experience design. Built on a Chromium foundation yet differentiated by its privacy-first approach, Arc disables intrusive telemetry and fingerprinting by default, ensuring that user data remains protected and browsing habits uncompromised. The browser incorporates built-in ad and tracker blocking functionality without requiring complex configurations, further reinforcing its dedication to safeguarding user privacy.
Arc’s unique features, such as its vertical sidebar and workspace management system called "Spaces," enhance productivity and efficiency by providing superior tab organization and intuitive navigation.…

Dedicated RSS feeds for individual categories in Proton Blog
Proton publishes a whole bunch of good and useful information in their blog. They also publish a bunch of irrelevant content that doesn't interest me. These posts are already categorized. However there's only one RSS feed that shows ALL content. Please add a dedicated feed for your existing categories. It would be super easy.

Setup custom duration instead of the default 30s for 2FA
I'd like to generate 2FA code using a different time span.
It's particularly useful when using other algorithms than the standard one.4 votes -
Proton Pass: Bad credentials autofill
Proton Pass often fails to present relevant login entry results when selecting credentials to populate individual login form fields.
Specifically, Proton Pass search results fails to include entries that were accessed moments ago.
For example, the current browser page should automatically trigger corresponding login entries for that domain. But they often don't. So you have to manually search for the right login entry. This happens with mobile browsers.
For example, you can select a login item for the username field. But then the login entry fails to appear in the recent list when populating the password field.
There's a very…

More granular access controls for Family/Organization plans
I would love to see more fine-grained access controls in the Family and Organization management dashboard.
Right now, the admin can only enable or disable certain features for the whole group, but it would be extremely helpful to assign specific permissions or benefits to individual members. For example, instead of just restricting the entire Family/Organization account from using a certain feature, the admin could decide who has access to which subscription benefits (e.g., VPN, Drive storage, Mail features, etc.).
This would make the Family/Organization plans much more flexible and customizable, and it would ensure that every member gets the right…

To-do list
Create a to-do list app similar to todoist. With reminders and linked to our Proton agenda. That'd be really a killer app. You want to protect privacy. Can you imagine the private data companies get out of personal todolists? They know so many things we do!

Mail: Multiple Select All Glitches
The bulk select all checkbox in Proton Mail seems to apply only to the current page. So hundreds of emails on pages 2 and beyond are failing to apply the requested action (e.g. mark as read).
In fact, the the Mark as Read / Mark as Unread toggle doesn't even present a consistent action from page to page of the results. You have to remember not to accidentally mark some results as unread, as you traverse each individual page.

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…

CLI Apps for integrations / automations
One big drawback of using proton instead of a big tech alternative (or nextcloud) is the lack of integration with third party services for automation or productivity.
I get that being E2E, it is complicated to make such integration through webhooks. But having CLI apps as a bridge could help (just like the App for proton mail bridge, but for all the proton services (at least mail, drive, docs,calendar).
It should be easier to integrate proton into any workflow with automation platform like n8n etc...

Virtualization like QubesOS DVMs--to protect the masses from the impending AI Spear-Phishing Swarms (Heiding et al., 2025).
Recent research shows with a little development, modern LLMs can be used to fully automate spear-phishing campaigns-- from reconnaissance to email and evaluation.
These atracks work as well as human hacking experts with 54% success.
This also makes it way more profitable.
Average non-QubesOS users need virtualization like disposable VMs in QubesOS.
