    Eh, Proton Mail is good, but it’s definitely not a full replacement of Gmail. Automatic sorting is a super nice feature that I’m missing.

    Also, the font they chose for their password manager is awful for a password manager. Passwords should be in a serif font to remove any doubt about I and l

      @pearsaltchocolatebar Hi! Regarding Proton Pass, could you let us know if you’re referring to the web extension or mobile app for Android or iOS?

      Regarding automatic sorting, could you share some more details about your use case, and what you can’t currently sort in your Proton mailbox, so we can pass the feedback on to the team?

        I’m referring specifically to the app. The font used doesn’t have any differentiation between an upper-case i and a lower-case L besides a like 1px height difference.

        While this isn’t a problem 99% of the time, it’s a pain when you’re typing a password in manually,especially when you don’t realize what the problem is. I’ve had my account locked on websites that only allow one failed attempt (which I admit is the fault of the website).

        Using a serif font for just the password string would remove any ambiguity.

        As far as email sorting, I was referring to how Gmail automatically sorts emails into Updates, Promotions, and Social Media. It’s definitely not a deal breaker for me, but it’s a nice QoL feature that might be worth adding to the road map.

        Also, with the Password Manager mobile app I’ve run into issues with it filling in usernames from the above the keyboard bar, but not passwords. This happens in both websites and apps.
