Global Auto Type
With the Mac app, the Linux version, and the Windows application, please give us the ability to set a global auto-type command like Control + CMD + P. This command should open a window where Proton Pass automatically types in the data, enabling auto-fill in non-web applications, similar to how KeePass does it.

We lost the option because you disabled the ipad app. Please integrate it in the MacOS app.

Yes please. Safari currently won't allow passkeys to be created in Proton Pass, because it can't be selected in MacOS Autofill & Passwords settings.
Current workaround is to use a different browser to create the passkey.

Please build universal autofill for MacOS

Definitely WANTED! It would be great if we could select Proton Pass as an autofiller in the system settings (like the "Passwords" Mac app, which is selected by default).
This will allow us to fill in passwords in any app and not just in the browser like on Android or iOS. We can't enjoy 100% Proton Pass on MacOS without this!

YES, please add universal autofill!

The MacOS desktop app currently does not support universal autofill on an OS level.
Value:
- One-time set-up: works across different browsers and other apps
- Enables biometric security for autofill -

Agreed - this is a showstopper for me; I use Universal Autofill constantly in 1Password. If Proton Pass can implement this I will migrate immediately.

Proton Pass for Mac should show up in Settings-General-AutoFill&Passwords as an option in 'AutoFill From' and 'Set Up Codes In' to select Proton Pass instead of Apple Passwords.

That the macOs app from Proton Pass allows system-wide autofill. Not only in the browser but in every app.

I second this! This used to be possible back when we could only use the iPad app (Proton Pass was available in the System Settings > AutoFill & Passwords > AutoFill Passwords and Passkeys). Although the new native macOS app is superior in many aspects, this lack of deeper integration with macOS feels like a step backwards. I appreciate this has been done to achieve consistency in the user interface across different OSes, but I wonder whether we could have the option to toggle between the two different modes?

Coming from 1Password, i am missing the option to autofill my user/password in desktop applications. In 1Password this was done by utilizing the Universal Autofill option. Just a press of "Command + \" would request the user/password for any application from the password manager.

Would be good to have, especially when logging into something like Proxmox and using the auto-type functionality on the console window when prompted for password.

This ,on linux, can be a "security beast", let me explain.
On linux, any app can capture clipboard content at any moment, but , to capture keyboard in the background, you need admin rights (on wayland at least) or to be authorised by the user to do it.
Creating a kind of global autofill witch would allow to auto-type text (passwords, could make using proton pass more secure.
This could work using the ibus input engines.
