Feature Suggestion: Automated Personal Data Removal
I greatly value Proton’s commitment to protecting user privacy through your suite of encrypted services. However, I see an opportunity to enhance the user experience and strengthen Proton’s value proposition even further.
Currently, users who want to remove their personal information from the internet must manually contact data brokers, websites, and search engines ... a time-consuming and ongoing task. I suggest Proton develop a Personal Information Removal System that would:
- Scan and Identify: Automatically detect where a user’s personal data is publicly available or held by data brokers.
- Automate Removal Requests: Send verified opt-outs or deletion requests on behalf of…

All in one desktop app
I wish instead of having 5 different services all on different platforms, all being separate entities, I wish all of the Proton Services were on one menu and one program I can download. Having to open 3 tabs for Mail, Calendar, Drive, then open an Extension or another Tab for Pass, and then a separate program for the VPN is EXTREMELY F**CKING FRUSTRATING! It's so hard to navigate.
If all of this was on one program you can download to manage all of this - Life would be miles better.

Migrate away from UserVoice > Proton Forums
BEFORE YOU DECLINE THIS PROTON, this is a feature request for Proton Forums.
Reasons why:
a) in house development
b) privacy and security standards
c) better community engagement
d) integration and smart cleaning
e) spam prevention
f) integration with core proton products15 votes -
Linux supported equally
Linux is very popular among privacy concerned users, who make up a large chunk of Proton's userbase. However, Proton fails to provide any solid Linux apps and frequently leaves them unmaintained or released years after the initial product launch. Proton should make Linux a first-class platform, with proper support from day one.

Integration with writing tablets
Privacy concerned users, such as journalists, would benefit from Proton Drive integration in emerging writing tablet devices.
Would love Proton to collaborate note and book annotation sync features with Amazon, Boox, Kobo, reMarkable, and other prominent writing tablet manufacturers. Too many of these devices vendor lock notes inside proprietary, non-endtoend encrypted services, with only manual export options.

Doc outliner to Proton docs
You can apply "Header 1" the title of the doc and subtitles but they are only visual, i would love to see a doc outliner on the side of the docs to be able to organize and skim through the doc without scrolling all the through 90 pages to what i need (Like google docs)

Proton chat messenger
Messenger would be end-to-end encrypted for video calls and voice messages.
This feature has been requested many times and has been under review since 2016.

Provide a checksum option to verify data is backed up as expected
It would be great if we could calculate a SHA512 checksum for files or folders we want to make sure have been backed up with absolutely no corruption. Make the feature on-demand, and not for every file anyone uploads to prevent unnecessary workload.

An idea for an advanced Proton Drive ecosystem
Do you think this would already be a good new beginning? Since the ProtonMail and Proton Calendar apps are being recreated, Proton Drive should probably be next.
Proton Drive:
Obviously it should be a File Manager solely for data backup and restore, an advanced service.
Download and upload folders, automatically with synchronization or manually.
Have the various one-way synchronization options available, which are essential for backing up or restoring folders.
Be an advanced File Manager, both offline and online.
Manage and monitor the "special folders" of other services that are in Drive.
Proton Photos:
A Gallery-based application, designed for the…

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.

Focus on functionality and feature parity on existing products
Proton should really focus on building with feature parity in mind. Most of their products work differently depending on the OS and that's not a good experience. Plenty of people use different OS (for example both Windows and Mac computers, the wife with Android, the husband with iPhone and the tech kid on Linux.
STOP overmoderating, STOP spreading thin your resources and FOCUS.

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…

.heic
Hi,
I hope you are having a blessed day. Recently ran into a conversion issue for heic. I know a lot of customers use iphone's and based on the transfer of pictures it would be amazing if you added support to preview heic within your own amazing email product. This would save a lot of time (maybe even the ability to convert to jpeg when it notices a attachment).263 votes -
A videocall app comparable to MS Teams
No email ecosystem can nowadays exist without a videocall app.
Having to rely to external apps means setting up a calendar, copying the url etc.It would be easier to have a Proton videocall app.

Allow users to purchase additional storage space regardless of plan
It is currently impossible to purchase additional storage space without changing paid plans.
Example: I have a proton mail plus plan, and am reaching my storage limit. I would like to purchase additional storage space (either as a 1-off payment or an increased monthly fee) without having to upgrade to an Unlimited plan. I don’t need the 500 GB of the Unlimited plan and have no use for the other additional features from the Unlimited plan).
That would be very helpful!
Thanks a lot ❤️5 votes -
Break page in Proton Doc

browser as a service
Offer an online browser that user can start and will be destroy after use can be a nice privacy feature, specifically for not tech-savvy users that aren't able to follow vulnerabilities induced in browser and/or plugins.

Overview:

- Optional…
