Summary:
Proton should offer a privacy-respecting method for users to verify whether their recovery phrase matches their current account setup—without exposing data or compromising encryption.Details:
Currently, users have no way to confirm if their recovery phrase is still valid after regenerating it. This creates a risk: if someone accidentally deletes the new phrase and the old one is no longer valid, the user may be locked out with no warning.A simple verification tool in Settings → Security could allow users to input their recovery phrase and receive a confirmation (yes/no) on whether it matches their current encrypted key. This could be done locally in the browser using zero-knowledge cryptography—similar to how password managers verify master passwords without storing them.
This feature would:
• Help users avoid catastrophic lockouts
• Respect Proton’s privacy-first architecture
• Require no server-side access to user data
• Be especially useful for users who rotate recovery phrases or manage multiple devicesTL;DR:
Proton should add a secure, local-only tool to verify whether a recovery phrase is valid for the current account—without revealing or accessing any user data.Privacy101 supported this idea ·

PROTON TEAM! I understand that this is a mega post which is not allowed anymore. It was allowed when I posted this.
