  1. Feature Request [proton-mail-export-cli] Add --since and --filter-domain flags for scoped, incremental backups

    Summary

    Love the export tool and use it for regular business backups. Two small additions to the CLI would make it significantly more practical for recurring and domain-scoped use cases: a --since flag to limit exports to a recent time window, and a --filter-domain flag to scope exports to a specific email domain.

    Proposed Flags

    --since DATE

    Export only messages on or after a given date (ISO 8601).

    ./proton-mail-export-cli --operation backup --dir ./backup --since 2026-03-01
    

    --since is the established convention for this pattern across tools like git log, journalctl, and most backup utilities, making it immediately intuitive.

  2. standardize

    How about standardizing each Proton Product's login Dashboard to have the same look and feel with links for Account, Product Download, Properties, Settings, etc all be in the same location for each product dashboard. Seriously, what a friggin pain ********** it is to try and locate these settings on each dashboard?! The links are either missing, or moved, or whatever - it's frustrating! Think about a product like Microsoft's Office - Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, etc. Each product I open has these controls easy to locate, in the same place, and easy to navigate. I mean, how hard can it…

  3. Identity/Adresse Book Wallet for online shopping and more

    Dear Proton Team,

    The massive usage of online shopping causes big issues : we all rely on these platforms to secure personal information, and avoid having them available on dark web (or directly sold to date brokers)

    As we can hope (or pray) that's the case for Payment info, we all know that "less valuable" info like mobile phone or postal address are not so protected.
    And each day i read in the news about a new site leaked by some hacker group (especially here, in France)

    So my idea is : instead of filling mobile and postal adresse on…

  4. Integration between Proton Sheets and MoneySheets.io

    I would like to request a collaboration or API integration with MoneySheets.io. This service uses official Open Banking to automatically pull bank transactions into a spreadsheet and calculate income, expenses, and savings. It currently works only with Google Sheets, which forces privacy-conscious users like me to move sensitive financial data outside the Proton ecosystem.
    An integration that allows MoneySheets to sync directly into Proton Sheets would be extremely valuable. It would let Proton users automate their personal finance tracking while staying 100% within your secure, privacy-first environment. This feature would strengthen Proton Sheets as a practical daily tool and show…

  6. app lock

    This is primarily focused on the desktop version of the application. On my iOS device, I can already require Face ID, but I’d love to see enhancements to the App Lock feature in Proton Mail and Authenticator. Specifically, adding the option to use biometric authentication (fingerprint or face recognition) or a passcode would provide an extra layer of security and convenience. This would give users greater flexibility in protecting access to their 2FA codes while also aligning with best practices for securing sensitive applications.

  7. Secret References: CLI-Based Env Variable Injection for Developer Workflows

    Add support for secret references in developer environments, allowing users to reference Proton Pass secrets directly in shell sessions and configuration files without ever writing sensitive values to disk in plain text.

    The Problem
    Developers currently have no way to use Proton Pass as the single source of truth for secrets in their development workflows. Even with a .env file properly added to .gitignore, credentials still exist in plain text on disk, vulnerable to accidental exposure, editor leaks, and local filesystem access.

    Each developer on a team must also manually sync secret values out-of-band, creating drift and security gaps.

  8. Deletion of a photo from preview window with web-based Proton Drive

    This one is pretty simple; using Proton Drive on a web browser, when I click on the thumbnail of a picture/video/file for preview, there is no way to be able to delete it. This is needed and IMO it is the right location to proceed for a deletion: when the file is being viewed. It is also helpful for files management and can help free spaces from your server, the planet, and our subscription.

  9. Rename mobile apps

    The current apps on Android all have the prefix "Proton <App>". Personally, I'm not a fan. My app drawer has all apps under the letter P and it doesn't matter what function the app has. I would expect Drive under D, Mail under M, Calender under C etc.

    I would like the apps to be renamed to e.g. "Drive by Proton", translated to each language so the apps show up where the other apps with the corresponding function are.

  10. Search function in Standard Notes

    Add the ability for text search within individual notes in Standard Notes. I have some loooong list style notes and it's very tedious to have to go through manually to check what's in there.

  11. Detect Busy Git Repositories and Delay Sync to Prevent Corruption

    I would like to suggest a feature that would significantly improve reliability when working with Git repositories inside Proton Drive.

    Problem:
    Git operations (commit, checkout, rebase, merge, gc, etc.) modify many files inside the .git directory and are not atomic at the directory level. If Proton Drive syncs the repository while such an operation is in progress, this can result in corrupted repositories, broken working copies, or inconsistent history.

    Suggested Solution:
    When Proton Drive detects that a directory is a Git repository (contains a .git folder), the sync client should delay syncing that directory while the repository is “busy”.

    Simple…

  12. I would love to see a single link to be able to update all the applications that can be used on any of my devices I have the Proton apps on.

    I would love to see a single link to be able to update all the applications that can be used on any of my devices I have the Proton apps on.
    I have Windows PCs, Linux workstations and multiple cell devices and it just takes a long time to update every app on every platform when a single script could update every platform's applications in a single run.

  13. Hide previous conversations in a conversation thread with "..." button

    When I open a conversation in ProtonMail, I see the entire conversation history. This is very annoying when there is a new email in that thread with an attachment - I always have to scroll through the ENTIRE conversation down to the bottom where the attachments are visible in the UI. Please hide previous conversations by default and make them visible by clicking a "..." button just link in Gmail.

  14. Log in with QR code

    I'm using Proton Pass for all logins. But to start using it on a new device I have to manually enter my Proton password there. It would be very nice to be able to scan a QR code by already logged in device instead.

  15. Emergency access - read-only, customizing what they can see/access

    1) https://proton.me/blog/emergency-access nor https://proton.me/support/emergency-access explains if emergency contact can change account password/key which they have accessed (taking over account). It does not explain any other protections.

    2) Also the account owner should be able to limit emergency user access to read-only, maybe just for a limited time like 1-2 years, during which owner has ability to reset the emergency user access and they have to request again.

    3) Owner should be able to limit access only to some services, like for example Drive or even certain folder of a Drive or Mail. This possibility I have not seen announced in…

  16. Sign Photos with My Proton Mail Key (like Guardian Project’s ProofMode)

    What I want:
    A single “Sign with Proton” action that works everywhere—when I’m composing in Mail, uploading to Drive, or sharing a file from any third‑party app (camera, scanner, office suite). It should use the exact private key I already have for signing Proton Mail messages, just like the Guardian Project’s ProofMode signs photos and videos.

    Why it matters:
    One key, all files – One cryptographic identity protects my emails, documents, spreadsheets, PDFs, photos, and videos.
    Traditional document signing – The same PGP/ECC signature that lawyers and businesses trust for contracts can now be applied to any file without leaving Proton.
    AI‑fake…

  17. Always connect to Proton Wallet using a password.

    The Proton wallet should be more secure by enabling its two additional options:
    2) Always require a password to log in to Proton Wallet, even if we are already logged in to another Proton application. Ideally with two-factor authentication.
    1) Log out after a few minutes of inactivity.

    Context: I just realised that:
    1) Even if I don't tick the ‘Remember me’ box, as soon as a session is open on the computer, I can log in to Proton Mail or Proton Wallet or other services without a password on the Vivaldi browser. This is still the case even after…

  18. Global Notification to all Trusted Persons When Someone Requested and Granted Emergency Access to a Proton Account

    Further to another existing suggestion (https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/935538-accounts-payments/suggestions/50403483-allow-users-to-configure-an-email-to-be-sent-along), please consider

    1. Automatically notify all trusted persons that who (with their proton email address)
    2. Allow users to configure optional global notifications to all trusted persons when someone

    requested and /or granted emergency access.

    It would be particularly useful when Trusted persons do not know each other or they are at different geo-locations.

    It would allow the trusted persons to work together, if necessary, to better handle the "emergency".

  19. API connection

    Dear Proton Product Team,

    I am writing to strongly request an API integration or strategic partnership with Nedap, specifically for their healthcare platform Nedap ONS.

    Who is Nedap?
    Nedap N.V. is not just a local vendor; it is a major Dutch multinational technology company publicly listed on Euronext Amsterdam (AMS: NEDAP). They are a dominant force in the European technology sector, employing over 900 people and operating globally.

    What is Nedap ONS?
    'ONS' is the de facto standard Electronic Health Record (EHR/ECD) and administrative suite for long-term care in the Netherlands. It is used by the majority of organizations in:
