  1. Optional login alias (non-email authentication identifier)

    Allow users to create an optional login alias that is not an email address and is used only for authentication.

    Example:

    • Account email: "username@protonmail.com"
    • Login alias: "shaolintemple" (as an example)

    User can log in with either:

    • email address
    • existing username (email without domain)
    • login alias
    • whichever they prefer

    The login alias would:

    • Not receive email
    • Not resolve to @proton.me / @protonmail.com
    • Be usable only on the login screen
    • Be fully optional (opt-in)

    Why:

    For power users, this adds defense-in-depth by preventing easy inference of a user’s email address…

  2. Address Aliases

    First of all, I love the email aliases future, because I'd rather not put my email on every single site I have to sign up for, and it's always as easy as removing the email if I don't want to receive emails from them anymore.

    However, a very big issue I have all the time is certain sites that want you to enter your street address. This is especially annoying for sites you don't trust but that you have to sign up for and create an account if you want to make any digital purchase.
    This idea came to my…

  3. PIN for mobile mail app

    Hi. I really like Proton apps, but I am shocked that there is still no PIN protection for mobile mail app (I use Android). If smartphone gets unlocked then someone could read e-mail, please fix this ASAP.

  4. Sync too slow

    I have ~700GB data on my drive. Syncing a new pc to keep everything locally takes days. and that with 1GBit/s internet. That's just way too slow.

  5. Enhance Screen Reader Accessibility of Proton Web and Windows Apps

    As a user who relies on screen reader technology to access technology, I have found that the Proton iOS apps are generally well designed for use with Apple's native screen reader, VoiceOver, but the same cannot be said of the web versions of their apps and especially the Windows apps, which are in some cases almost entirely inaccessible for screen reader users.
    As a starting point, take what I imagine is your most popular core product, Proton VPN. The Proton VPN Windows app has numerous significant accessibility problems that make many basic features very hard to use and other features…

  6. Allow shared caledar to be set as primary

    Currently a calendar shared with your account cannot be set as the default or primary calendar, so if you want to have a family calendar where everyone's events are added automatically, only the first user to create the calendar will have this functionality.

  7. Photos: Batch upload .zip files with directory structure used as albums

    Currently getting i.e. google takeout downloads to Drive is, uh, sorry, ...not very good. Photos should allow folders upload, not just image file uploads. Please :)

  8. Short link for creating new documents, emails, events, etc.

    Excerpt from get.new: .new is a domain extension exclusively for performing new actions online: any act that leads to creation can have a quick and memorable new shortcut associated with it. Help your customers take action faster. Less time clicking means more time creating.

    It would be extremely convenient to use proton.new for creating things in Proton. Everything I can think of:
    proton.new/doc - New document
    proton.new/sheet - New sheet
    proton.new/mail & proton.new/email - New email
    proton.new/event - New calendar event
    proton.new/meeting - New meeting

    I think the plural forms of the words should work, too: doc & docs, event…

  9. Copy a calendar event on mobile

    Within in the Windows Proton Calendar/Mail app you can copy an event, we need this same functionality on the mobile device Android/Apple. This is a basic and incredibly important feature to NOT have on the phone.

  10. Show full folder path to folder when selecting to move an email

    When choosing to move an email into a folder, the search filter will match, but it only shows the name of the folder, however it should show the full path (aka the parent folders) not just the leaf node.

  11. Thinking About HubSpot CMS – Is It the Right Choice for Business Websites?

    I'm planning to upgrade a business website, and HubSpot CMS is one of the platforms I'm considering. From what I've researched, it offers an easy editing experience, built-in SEO recommendations, strong security, and smooth integration with other HubSpot tools. Those features sound promising, but I'd like to know how it performs in real-world projects. Has HubSpot CMS been easy to manage as your website grows? Are there any limitations or features that surprised you after using it? I'd appreciate hearing honest feedback from anyone with hands-on experience.

  12. Improvements for business

    I recently considered switching my nonprofit from Proton for Business to Ksuite for business because of several items Infomaniak offered that Proton does not:

    1. Captions in video meetings: Please allow captions or transcriptions ProtonMeet. This is an accessibility issue.

    2. Shared email addresses: For a business, the ability to share an email address across uses is simply a must. For example, several users may need to access and check info@business.com and reply from it.

    3. Connect an existing OnlyOffice drive/account: We have an existing OnlyOffice drive and would love to be able to connect that to our Proton drive. We learned that…

  15. Unreliable cloud storage

    Proton Drive uploads are broken. The iOS app shows a file as present in Proton Drive. The Web app shows the file. But the macOS app fails to show the file. Even after updating the app and relaunching multiple times. Do not advise using Proton Drive until the platform significantly improves its reliability problems. Sadly, nobody hires qualified engineers in technical departments in 2026.

  16. A Proton Social Media Platform

    Having an uncensored platform to express ideas would be a game changer in the world of social media. X, (formerly "Twitter"), as well as Gab, Truth Social, Parler, et. al., have moderators who decide what is acceptable. This is NOT free speech. What one person (or moderator), finds offensive, another may find humorous or innocuous or blustering rhetoric. Freedom to express ideas and opinions, even ones that some might find offensive, (i.e. war, race, gender, ethnicity, etc.,) or anything else that might hurt someone's feelings should be absolute. Having filters in place where users can choose whether or not to…

  17. Agentic integrations(I know, just take a read)

    AI is tricky when it comes to privacy. Privacy is why I(and others reading this) use proton and integrations didn't make sense(for personal use) until lately. Recently open-source agents have been increasingly competitive as far AI capabilities go. Local models have also progressed to the point that they are actually useful. Its gotten to the point were AI is starting to improve my life and allow me to focus on what I pride myself in doing and in a way outsourcing the trivial chores. I am not able to do that with Proton products though. From businesses this is a…

  18. Kudos On Proton Pass & Proton Authenticator

    Have been using LastPass for a LONG time. Also started using Apple Passwords. I like your Pass/Authenticator apps better than those two. A couple of functional gaps, but easier to use, fast, simple, and has some features the others don't have. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK.

  19. Sort events on the calendar according to a calendar display order

    Be able to sort the display order of events in the agenda based on a customizable calendar sort.
    For example, always display events related to the 'Family' calendar first.

  20. Develope a Linux based Proton OS.

    Subject: Proton Should Consider a Linux-Based OS for Better Protection

    Dear Proton Team,

    As a paid subscriber for five years, I believe Proton should consider developing a Linux-based operating system. This step would ensure that paid users are better protected by extending your security standards from the applications down to the operating system itself, eliminating vulnerabilities inherent in mainstream platforms.

    Sincerely,

    A 5-Year Paid Subscriber
