I received a mail and also confirmed on this forum that the status is updated to Planned.

No idea when it will be ready, but i'm very happy with this.

I'm really intrigued. However I really wish they would spend some time improving their mail and calendar apps.

So what you're saying is that you want a Proton web browser next? /s

[–] rikudou@lemmings.world 3 points 1 year ago

What's wrong with it? It seems to work good enough for me.

@CO_Chewie @Papanca ... and also improve the rate of development...

I think they should work on connecting the apps together to form an account like your Google account does to replace that account for Stock Android and LineageOS as well.

I am actually super excited about this. I hope they get some good sharing tools in place but even a reasonably priced photo upload and storage service would be really great.

This is great and all. But what I really want is a stand alone Pass app! Even just a web app would be great. Anything besides JUST a browser extension. Yes I know there is a mobile app.

If the photo pricing plans are large and competitively priced, I would certainly consider switching.

the status is updated to Planned.

They did the same with Passkeys so we'll probably see in them in ~5 years!!!

[–] joseangel@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Please, a note taking app.

Not to burst your bubble but marking it as planned on user voice means nothing.

This feature asking to sync contacts with your phone's address book has been planned sine January 2019.

Edit: huh, hyperlink didn't work...

One of the biggest features I am waiting for. I hope they are as good or better than ente.io I consider ente.io as a perfect privacy oriented Google Photo's replacement.

[–] Papanca@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I wanted to try ente, but they didn't accept my proton pass alias, i never got a verification code. So, here's to hoping proton photos is ready soon. I trust it will be reasonably ok when it gets launched, but it can take a long time before they add improvements on their products.

[–] Yinchie@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hmm I use a alias as well and it works quite well. Although I do make use of my own domain name.

[–] Papanca@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I tried several, so maybe it's indeed the domain name. But good to know yours worked

Considering how bad their mobile apps are (at least on iOS), it will probably meet the same fate as proton calendar
