Protonmail for Windows UI Improvement

The Protonmail client for Mac allows you to switch between email and Calendar with a single click.

As switching between email and Calendar is something we do many times / day, it would be good if the Windows client followed the same convention.

Unexpected Error - Windows Client

Today my Protonmail client on Windows displayed an error. It soon became obvious that this was because a client update had run in the background without any warning or prompting.

Users should have control over when software on their machines is updated. Uncontrolled updates might be fine for some users; however the decision to automatically update (or not) should be the users (or the immediate user admin).

Please can you add a setting to toggle on / off auto update. If switched to off, a notification by the version number should display when a new version is available.

New Oceanus ?

Hello all, I'm considering buying a new OCW-S400 after years with another watch.

Does anyone know if there are any UK based companies which sell Oceanus ?

P.s. I know there are loads of online resellers of various qualities.

.pkpass Support

As .pkpass is the de-facto format for event tickets and bookings, does anyone know if Samsung has any plans to support this format ?

Proton Tasks

Proton like other providers offers encrypted email, contacts and calendar. However there appears to be a gap in the market for a secure Task manager. Given tasks bring together lots of private data, it is a surprise this has not been addressed.

Suggestion: Add 'Tasks'. A new label on the top menu.

Clicking on the link opens a view with Task Name, Start Date, End Date, Priority, Progress (Not Started, Started, On Hold, Finished).

Print Calendar

You cannot print the Proton Calendar.

Suggestion: Add the ability to print Calendars to one or more templates, similar to Outlook.

P.s. I know I can do screen grabs as a workaround. However this a bit more useful.

Nested Folders

Proton limits the number of nested folders. This impacts its use as a credible business email solution.

As an example, I want folders as below.

Company Name > Suppliers > Telecoms > Mobile > Admin > Invoices

This is not possible on Proton.

Suggestion: Increase the number of nested folders to either unlimited or to over 10

Unified Labels

Protonmail has labels which work well.

However, I wonder if the Labels could be taken a step or two further.

Use Case: I plan a trip which requires airport parking, flight bookings, transfer bookings and a hotel (or two). I want to be able to view all items related to the trip easily.

Suggested Feature: That a unified set of labels (I.e. one list of labels) can be applied not just to email, but can also be added to a saved Contacts and Calendar appointments. (Step1)

Ideally as a second step, that when clicking on a label in the left hand menu, I see all related email, contacts and appointments in a single date ordered list.

Comment: It's similar to the way Microsoft uses Categories.

Sort Calendars

Proton allows you to sort Labels and obviously Folders as you wish. However you cannot change the order of Calendars.

Suggestion: Proton adds the ability to sort Calendars by A-Z, Z-A & manually to have a custom order.

Sub Folders for Contacts

Tuta supports sub folders in email which obviously makes storing / managing email easier. However there appears to be nothing similar for Contacts. With over 1,100 contacts (personal, work clients, work suppliers, Etc) having a way to manage them would be very useful.

Suggestion: Sub folders under 'All Contacts' are added. A Contact can be moved (perhaps even copied) to a sub folder. Selecting a folder shows all Contacts in the folder. Selecting 'All Contacts' shows the contents of all folders including the 'All Contacts' top folder.

P.s. I realise that I can have contact lists, however this is not quite the same.

Protonmail Omission on Mac

On a Mac when an application is in full screen, a user can tap the Esc key to take the app out of full screen mode. Protonmail does not support this action.

Please add a fix.

Proton Drive on Mac

As a Proton Drive user I access my files from several systems. Some are Windows based and others Mac based. On the Windows machine I can specify the drive storage location. (I.e. where the files are stored locally). On my Windows machine I have a drive for the OS and a drive for data.

On my Mac I cannot specify the drive storage location. The feature is only available in Windows.

Suggestion: Proton Drive for Mac should allow a user to pick the storage location on any local drive and in any folder structure. I.e. d:\ or d:\remote_data\... Etc.

Email Delete Management

Tuta has the handy feature of deleting email from the Trash folder after 30 days. However this does not allow the user any fine control.

I expect there are good operational reasons for having an auto delete, but a setting that offers the user finer control would be good.

Suggestion: Create a setting the allows the user finer control. As an example, when I close the email client, I want the Trash folder to be emptied.

Options could be

  • Empty Trash on Client Exit (this is my personal preference)
  • Empty Trash after 15 days
  • Empty Trash after 30 days
  • Empty Trash after 60 days

Unified Labels in Tuta

Tuta has labels which work well for email. There is a road map issue (#8374) to allow these to be applied via the filtering rules; which would be a good step forward.

However, I wonder if the Labels could be taken a step or two further.

Use Case: I plan a trip which requires airport parking, flight bookings, transfer bookings and a hotel (or two). I want to be able to view all items related to the trip easily.

Suggested Feature: That a unified set of labels (I.e. one list of labels) can be applied not just to email, but can also be added to a saved Contacts and Calendar appointments. (Step1)

Ideally as a second step, that when clicking on a label in the left hand menu, I see all related email, contacts and appointments in a single date ordered list.

Comment: It's similar to the way Microsoft uses Categories. Proton allows labelling of email and contacts but these are separate lists, which do not work as well.
