Dark theme for loading and login pages
Liked so far the overall dark theme but I think it still miss some features, i.e. the login page and the loading page flash a white&bright page, so it's kinda annoying the switch between light and dark page.
The idea is that if the login/loading pages detect that you are using dark theme on the browser or in the OS, then there is no such a light pages.

Proton Unlimited – A growing gap in the ecosystem?
Might I suggest a closer alignment between Proton Meet and Proton Unlimited?
While one appreciates the realities of resource constraints, the current approach—where an already top-tier plan effectively becomes “upgradeable” (as seen with Meet and Lumo)—undermines the original concept of Unlimited. It begins to feel less like a complete offering and more like a base layer for subsequent add-ons.
If this direction is necessary, a clearer restructuring would be preferable: either introduce a new, higher-tier plan, or reconsider the scope and pricing of the existing ones. As it stands, what was once the definitive individual tier now feels somewhat diluted.

Onboarding Opt-out or Toggle
Current onboarding experience needs to be streamlined and needs to respect users. Currently, there are emails sent daily for the first week or so and then there are frequent notifications and banners and modal windows that pop up and interrupt the user while trying to complete a task or just send a quick email. This constant interruption and disrespect for user's time and agency is not welcomed. For those that need onboarding, let them opt in and for those that do not need onboarding, let them opt out. There should be a single question upon new account creation: "Would you…

Ability to filter on Proton Mail by the email address it is sending to you
Especially with the connection to Gmail, and especially with the already existing ability of up to 10+ alternative emails leading to the same inbox, we need the ability near the top of proton mail to "Filter by Address", with checkboxes for each of your email.
For example, if I have 3 Proton Emails, and my Gmail Account (PersonalProton1@pm.me, BusinessProton2@pm.me, MiscProton3@pm.me, Gmail@gmail.com), but I only want to see the emails for my business email (BusinessProton2@pm.me), I need to simply have a checkbox to only include inbox messages coming to that specific address (BusinessProton2@pm.me…

Publish basic governance data
Proton is often seen as a nonprofit, but in reality it operates as a private company, Proton AG, with the Proton Foundation as a majority shareholder. This structure is designed to protect its mission, but many users are not fully aware of how it works or what guarantees it provides long term.
Proton asks users to trust that its incentives will always stay aligned with privacy. While that may be true today, long term trust is harder to evaluate without some visibility into ownership and financial direction. For example, WhatsApp was once widely seen as privacy-focused, but shifts in ownership…

Proton Android simulator on computer
My phone screen just cracked and I don't know how long it will last. I'm going to put some tape on it, but I'd like, if possible, an Android simulator just to access bank accounts, WhatsApp, and all the Proton apps.

How do I convert archived MSG emails into PDF for legal documentation?
I have a folder of old Outlook MSG files from a completed client project. Some emails are part of legal communication and need to be saved in PDF format for long-term records. The files include sender details, dates, message body, and attachments. I do not want to open every MSG file one by one and print it manually. What is the safest way to convert MSG files into PDF while keeping the email details readable?

Nudge users to change their master password periodically
I think it would be helpful if Proton would periodically (perhaps quarterly? At least annually) nudge users to change their master passwords.
Because the initial nudge might come when someone doesn't have time to update their password, perhaps the user could "snooze" the nudge.3 votes -
[Lumo] Custom bot feature
I can't find the Proton Lumo below 'Give feedback' on the right column so I'm posting here.
I'm using bots everyday and find the custom bot feature very important. Just some text config and a name for a custom bot should be nice.
Sometimes the generic mood of the bot is not so prefered, a custom bot with fixed info to define a personal assistant in owner's style is good to have. The fitting style of language is better for conversation, like a pal, not a stranger.
Some guys are with such custom bot and free: Gemini Gem, Instagram AI…

Private Identity Management: Add Support for W3C Verifiable Credentials and ZKP
Proton is already where I secure my emails, files, and passwords. As the world pushes toward more digital verification (often in invasive ways), I want a “Proton-native” way to verify my identity without handing over my sensitive data to Big Tech or state-surveillance-aligned systems.
Privacy: Proton’s core value is encrypting data so even Proton can’t see it. SSI/ZKP is the natural evolution: let the system provide a “Zero-Knowledge Proof” to a third party (like “I am over 21” or “I am a verified resident”) without me ever having to share my actual ID, age, or address.
Safety: It’s a huge…

Unified Application
Create a unified application platform to access all Proton features via a multi-OS application (Windows, macOS, Linux [Flatpak]).
I'm thinking functions like:
1) Workspace-like application with tabs down the left side for each application (Mail, Contacts, Pass, Drive, VPN, etc..)
2) Option to toggle individual apps on/off if the user does not want to include specific ones.
3) Option to pop-out individual apps
4) Configurable timeout/lock for the app platform. Should include pin, password, biometrics, security keys
5) Themes
6) Application-based encryption to protect cached app dataTake a look at Zoho's Trident application, there are some decent ideas/designs there.

Warn when too many recipients, and be able to select/copy/remove all
I am trying to send news to my family and friends. I thought having the paid plan would allow me to avoid GMail and send the mail to everybody (150 emails approx). But I can't.
What is even more frustrating:
- there is no warning when we are close/reach the limit
- there is no message saying "you are trying to send to 104 people, the limit is 100", just a general message
- there is no way (AFAIK) to remove all BCC recipients directly, I need to remove them one by one
- there is no way to select-all…5 votes -

Add a "Proton Docs" category to the forum
Currently, Proton Docs lacks a dedicated category on this forum. This forces users to post Proton Docs feedback in the "General Ideas" forum, which could potentially slow down the app’s development. Therefore, I formally request that a dedicated category for Proton Docs be added to the forum. Thank you for your attention and your valuable time.

ProtonVPN Plus and ProtonMail Plus separate subscriptions
Online I see that for 2 years ProtonVPN plus plus is 3 EUR per month. When I log in to my ProtonMail (Plus), only the Proton Unlimited is visible for 10 EUR per month (I already have mail plus). I switch to VPN, then I get the VPN plus option, but it shows that I'll have only basic mail functionalities (looks like I will lose my Mail Plus if I switch to VPN Plus?). I only want VPN Plus to be able to VPN to Germany. I want to have Mail Plus and VPN Plus together (it's more worth it…
