What is now available:

-All photos from your iOS device will be backed up to your Drive

-It’s a backup, so actions taken on your device or Proton Drive online won’t have impact on the other.


It will probably be more convenient once they make the rearrange buttons available on Android as it is on iOS. Probably soon.




Multiple free accounts are agains their terms of Service. One free account and multiple paid accounts. That could help.


You mean when you share stuff? Because that hamburger only shows when you’re logged in, to you. Are you on a shared computer? Can you please explain in detail your scenario? Thanks!


Because people could want them in a specific manual order other than using the alphabet. Well, you could put a number as prefix to order them, I know, just pointing the fact.


Not there. But would be great. At least a way to backup and recover your contacts to a new phone (both Android and iOS). That would be awesome.


Usually sync calendar and contacts.


For Mail and Calendar could take a little longer, as they won’t be there until they replace their notification system.


Well, the rewritten app is slowly gaining new functions. Hopefully it will soon get that too


There are certain rules, we all expect you to follow them. Come one, that one wasn’t even contributing.



Yes. Version 4x is a new rewritten app. There are some missing functions, but it is the base for all new things to come.



It has one now. Unless the video is too big, see here for details: https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonDrive/comments/zb0f9a/comment/izdueud/

We currently don’t do previews for videos larger than 100MB, because preview generation must happen on the user device due to end-to-end encryption, and it is computationally expensive for large videos. There are ways to solve this, and we will be making improvements on this in the future.


Latest information we’ve got is this:

"Hi! We made some changes on the Free plan to improve connection speed:

We've added new free servers in Romania and Poland (on top of the US, Netherlands and Japan).

Now, you are auto-connected to the fastest server available by default (which is preferred by 99% of users).

Load balancing formula has been improved.

The default connection will give you the best experience available. You can, however, choose to change to another randomly allocated server.

If you want to access country-specific content, we recommend checking out our paid plans, where you can choose between 70+ countries: https://protonvpn.com/pricing. Our free VPN has no ads, no logs, and is as secure & private as our paid plans. It’s made possible thanks to the support from our paid users, NOT your data. With that in mind, certain features are necessarily available only on our paid plans."

Please be respectful of other user’s comments, even if they don’t share your perspective. We don’t allow that kind of vocabulary around here.

Thanks!


Thanks for your feedback! Did you report it from the app so the devs can have a look at it and debug if needed?


It is an error. A fix to remove this is coming, as the team stated some hours ago:

“There is a fix incoming, thanks for your patience!”

https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/comments/1axhsfv/comment/kro14ta/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3



How do you get rid of this f* titlegore?

Please be respectful of the language used here. We don’t use that kind of expressions here, and won’t allow it.


No, it’s not. An awesome product BTW, IMHO.


No. The team have official handles and ourselves, Volunteer mods, as in reddit. But that user is just a user AFAIK.

[Proton.me] Top blog posts of January 2024


Thank you for your feedback. Growing as an organization is most of the times thanks to the community. I’ll do my best to pass along.



It’s official, for the original message see here: https://status.proton.me/incidents/3jwzn1fyf1x3 "Some Windows and Linux versions of Proton Mail Bridge are experiencing issues in auto-upgrading to newer versions of Bridge. In certain situations, it can lead to downgrading to a version that could reduce reliability.

If you are facing problems with Bridge on Windows and Linux, or even if you are not facing issues, we recommend making a manual update to the latest version.

Download the latest version here: https://proton.me/mail/bridge#download

Afterward, double-click the downloaded file to start the update. Once the update is done, Bridge will be able to auto-update again.

Every Windows and Linux Bridge version between 3.2.0 and 3.8.1 (inclusive) must be manually updated to the latest Bridge version to re-enable auto-updates, which is important for security and reliability. We recommend performing a manual update if you are unsure which version of Bridge you have.

In case of any questions, please get in touch with Proton customer support or consult the following article for more information: https://proton.me/support/protonmail-bridge-manual-update

No other Proton services besides the specific Windows and Linux versions of Proton Mail Bridge were affected. Posted 15 hours ago. Feb 03, 2024 - 00:29 CET"



Would be nice, right? Thanks for your feedback, I’ll pass along!

Edited: thinking it further, it could be a different app, not all pass users use mail.

fdroid wen

When an alternative way of pushing notifications is developed. Not yet. And with that dependency, it won’t get to fdroid.


Good thing feedback isn’t a super important part of beta testing or anything

No need for sarcasm over here. Feedback is super important on this phase. As it always is.



Yeah, this one was among the most requested features. Glad it went through!
