When an external sender cancels a single instance of a recurring event that I'm invited to, I would like to be able to get that event off my calendar.
**Desired user experience:**
1. Person invites me to a recurring event series
2. Person sends a cancellation for a single instance of the event
3. I receive the cancellation and see the instance w/ a strikethrough and "canceled" status on my calendar
4. I open the event and press "Delete" (or trash icon)
5. The instance of the event is no longer on my calendar. All other instances in the recurring event series are unaltered by these actions.**Current broken user experience:**
1. Person invites me to a recurring event series
2. Person sends a cancellation for a single instance of the event
3. I receive the cancellation and see the instance w/ a strikethrough and "canceled" status on my calendar
4. I open the event and press "Delete" (or trash icon)
5. I get a modal prompt that says "Delete recurring event - This event has been updated by the organizer. Would you like to delete this event?" and I click "Delete"
<BEGIN PROBLEM>
6. The instance of the event **does not** get deleted. Instead it reverts to looking like a normal instance of the event; the strikethrough on the name, white background on the event, and "Canceled" badge are all gone.
7. When the expected UX fails me, I try to manually decline the single instance of the recurring event to get it off my calendar, but I cannot because that feature doesn't work either (see https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932842-proton-calendar/suggestions/48933599-decline-a-single-instance-of-a-recurring-event-fro)
8. I am now stuck with the canceled instance on my calendar forever, unless I decline the entire series (which is not a viable 'workaround')
<END PROBLEM>"I would like to clear a canceled event from my calendar" is basic / MVP / table stakes calendar app functionality that it feels odd to have to submit a request for. But until (and so that it might!) exist, I'm submitting this "idea".

As of March 2024, this feature is available on the web. Coming soon to other apps.

Another case that's hopefully implied by the general "Edit single instance of a recurring event" story, but being specific so it doesn't get missed:

Want to be clear: This *needs* to handle editing single instances of a recurring event *with other participants*.
Hopefully obvious that this is an implied user story being asked for, but commenting to make it explicit.

I found another quirk yesterday—when I am an invitee on a recurring series, if the sender cancels an instance, there's no way accept that cancellation and get the event off my own calendar.
Though at first the event displays struck through when the sender pushes out a cancellation, when I went into the event to 'accept' the cancellation and get it off my calendar, Proton instead seemed to step *backwards*, removing the strike through from the event so it looks like just a normal calendar event again.
To remember the event is cancelled I had to add a second event in the same slot that says "NO [event name], CANCELLLED".
This is baseline calendar app functionality, and needs to get prioritized and sorted soon else I can't keep using the product and living with limitations that simply should've been fixed from the start.

More would be helpful here.
Specifically, in the MacOS desktop app, a way to switch between the mail and calendar modes would be really nice.
I use Command + 1/2 frequently in Outlook at work and it's quite convenient. It could be some other key combo, but I'd be glad to see *any* option exist.

Proton team, any update whatsoever about where this sits on a priority list?
I would so much rather see the products you claim to offer already be more fully functional (e.g. proper handling of recurring events with participants, iPad Calendar app) before introducing more half-baked products that aren't of interest introduced (crypto wallet something buzzwordy, AI doc something buzzwordy, etc.).
