Folders and nested subfolders
I want to be able to use folders and sub-folders. I use strongbox on iOS which is based on keepass. It allows for as many folders and sub-folders that you want. I use folders to keep my stuff organized. I don't like having all my passwords and whatever in one big long list. I also using keepass as a bookmark manager. I really like the idea of your "vaults", but again I have over like 3000 bookmarks and folders are really needed. Also attachments with built in viewer is also important. I like to convert a lot of websites to PDF and store them as attachments, so I can view them later. Keepass is the only one that can view said items, everyone else you have to download said item to view the attachment.
This feature is now a work in progress

Currently, all items in a Proton Pass vault are listed together, which can make it difficult to organize accounts, notes, and credentials for different purposes.
I propose adding a feature that allows users to create folders inside each vault, so they can group related items for better structure and accessibility.
For example:
In a vault named Work, a user could create folders like Servers (containing all server credentials and notes) and Email Accounts (containing email credentials).
In a vault named Gmail, a user could organize items into folders such as Government Services and Gaming Accounts (for services like Steam, Epic, etc.).
This improvement would significantly enhance organization, especially for users with many items and complex workflows.

Absolutely important! In my previous password manager, I had a tree structure with items nested up to three levels deep, and about 20 folders in total. Migrating all of that to Proton Pass is a bit challenging at the moment as it currently has flat structure - but I really want to make the switch.

Definitely this kind of feature would be helpful.

After using Keepass for so long with folders since I can remember, I don't now how this is not a basic feature of ProtonPass. It is so difficult to find something here at times.

Folders and/or tags, please. Best with an option to switch between list view and folder view. At a certain amount of records, the list just gets too long and one does not always know necessarily which word to use for a search (or there are typos so a record won't be found)

I will be using Proton Pass, but indeed something like folders or tags is missing. I use tags extensively in 1Password

This is the only reason I'm not moving from KeePassXC to Proton Pass.
I'll migrate as soon as this feature is launched. -

I will like to add when creating folders for Proton, I will like to have the number of items in that folder next to the folder like keepass does. Don't know if that is a big thing, but it does help.

I work for a MSP, and also have a large number of personal and family-shared passwords. I currently use Keepass, and have about 700 passwords spread over about 60 folders, in 3 different kdbx files (equivalent of Vaults?).
I would love to move away from Keepass, but without nested Folders/Groups that is so not happening.

This would help me to better organize my logins and I think it is a critical feature.

For me, I need hierarchical folders because I have a memory problem specific to proper names (of people, places, and things alike) and often cannot remember the name of the service I want to log into. The modern UI trend of "just throw everything into one big pile and use search/filter to find what you need when you need" really, really doesn't work for me, because if I can't remember the name of the thing I need to find, well, I can't search for it!
With folders, I can easily find things by navigating to say, Entertainment > Online Games or Finances > Insurance, and scrolling through the small number of things in that folder; I'll know what I'm looking for when I see the name and icon. If any one folder gets too big, I can easily break it up into further subcategories.
Tags are better than nothing, but unless they can be navigated in a hierarchy like folders, they just replace "scroll through 500 logins" with "scroll through 75 tags".
I'm looking at ProtonPass as a potential replacement for Bitwarden, but the lack of categories is currently a deal-breaker. (Looking to leave Bitwarden because, among other things, their recent UI changes made categories much harder to navigate.)

Wanting to migrate from another PW system, but have several hundred entries by category - not feasible until PPass implements some kind of folder or group system

This is almost the only reason from keeping me off from switching to Proton Pass

FOLDERS or TAGS, Until one of these organizational tools is part of Proton Pass, I doubt it will ever be my primary go to or top recommend for password management. The 'Vaults' option is a limited weak substitute.

I have just tested Proton Pass and imported my Bitwarden exports. Unfortunately, neither folders are imported nor can you create any afterwards. For me, this is a k.o. criteria. It would be nice if this were integrated soon.

The only missing feature why I haven’t switched to protonpass yet.
