    Built for speed and the future: Introducing Proton Mail’s brand new mobile apps

    Proton Mail rebuilt its iOS and Android apps from the ground up with a shared code base, modern design, and offline mode. The new apps run faster, sync features across platforms, and unify iOS/Android experiences. Built with Rust, the upgrade sets the stage for Calendar and faster updates, with a gradual rollout.

    Email was born on desktop computers. Early email apps for mobile could feel off — the lag when you open a message, the clumsy taps trying to pull up the right draft, the jolt when you switch devices and need to adjust to a different layout.

    But today, our phone is our camera, our calendar, our communication hub, our mobile headquarters. We live on our phones. With this in mind, over the past year, we embarked on an ambitious project to rebuild Proton Mail’s iOS and Android apps from the ground up.

    Our completely redesigned apps are fast, modern, and smoother to work with, even when you’re offline. And for the first time, iOS and Android are fully in sync, with the same features and updates arriving side by side.

    You no longer have to choose between Big Tech’s convenience or encrypted email’s privacy. Proton Mail lets you have both. Proton Mail v7 (yes, this is now the 7th major release of Proton Mail, but probably the largest update so far) is also a new beginning. Built on an entirely new code base that shares logic across iOS and Android, it will allow us to deliver new features much faster going forward, and they’ll arrive on iOS and Android at the same time.

    A modern design that works harder for you

    The redesigned interface is clean, intuitive, and built for speed. Navigation is simpler, and the actions you use most (like the composer button), are within easier reach.

    This isn’t just about looks. The new design helps you cut through your inbox faster, so you can focus on what matters.

    Performance that keeps up

    The biggest upgrade in this release is speed. Routine actions, like scrolling your inbox, archiving threads, or replying on the go, all feel instant and are now twice as fast.

    Whether you’re rushing to show a boarding pass or catching up on a busy workday, Proton Mail is now built to respond immediately.

    Email that works anywhere

    Proton Mail’s native mobile apps now have a complete offline mode. You can read, write, and organize your emails without an internet connection. Everything syncs automatically once you’re back online.

    That means you stay productive — whether you’re on a train, on a flight, or out of coverage.

    The same app on every device

    This update finally harmonizes the experience between iOS and Android. Both apps now share the same features — for instance, Android users can now snooze or schedule messages. No matter which device you use, you get a consistent Proton Mail experience.

    Overall, we believe the new mobile apps are a major milestone, allowing us to deliver a modern email experience across all platforms while preserving Proton Mail’s best in class privacy and end-to-end encryption.

    Built for what’s next

    Behind the scenes, we rewrote our mobile tech stack using Rust. Our Android and iOS apps now share roughly 80% of their code, which means faster development and updates that land within the same release window across both platforms. However, our new mobile apps are still native apps, allowing them to have the blistering fast performance that is only possible with native apps. We’ll share a full technical write-up soon.

    This rebuild also lays the groundwork for some of the most requested features, and the new architecture will also form the basis of all new Proton Calendar apps which are also on the way, and will also allow for much faster calendar feature releases also.

    Getting the update

    The new Proton Mail app update is rolling out gradually on iOS and Android, and you might not see it immediately. If you’re on iOS, you can update manually from the App Store. On Android, the new version will appear automatically as the rollout expands.

    As always, let us know your feedback on X and Reddit, and we’ll consider your suggestions.

    Easily import photos and albums from Google Photos to Proton Drive on Windows

    Proton Drive for Windows gains a new photo import feature: you can move Google Photos albums and images into private, end-to-end encrypted storage, with auto-created albums and import from any folder. No tracking or AI training behind the scenes, and macOS import is coming soon.

    Your photos are souvenirs of some of your happiest and most important moments. They belong to you, not to ad algorithms or AI platforms. That’s why Proton Drive gives you a private place to store them — where you can organize your photos into albums and browse them using filters and a timeline, with no tracking and no one analyzing them behind the scenes.

    Now, bringing your photo library into Proton Drive is easier than ever. With the latest Windows app update, you can import albums and pictures from Google Photos to a cloud storage that protects your privacy with end-to-end encryption.

    How to move from Google Photos to Proton Drive

    • Export your files from Google Photos using Google Takeout.
    • Open the Proton Drive desktop app for Windows.
    • Go to Photos import.
    • Select Import from Google Photos and import your photos and albums to Proton Drive.

    Depending on how many photos you have, the process can take a few minutes to a few hours. You can continue using your computer during this time.

    For more details, see how to import your photos from Google Photos into Proton Drive.

    Why move away from Google Photos?

    Your photos hold moments that matter, but to services like Google Photos, they also contain valuable data. Every image can be scanned for faces (including people who don’t use Google Photos), locations, objects, and patterns. These details help build profiles and infer relationships without your knowledge or explicit consent.

    And as Gemini AI continues to expand in the Google ecosystem, it’s becoming harder to know whether your personal photos are simply being stored or quietly used to train AI.

    Switch to a service that treats your photos as memories to be protected, not data sources to be mined.

    Import photos from anywhere, not just Google

    While Google Photos import is the highlight of this update, the new feature goes further. You can now import photos from any folder using the Proton Drive app for Windows. Albums are created automatically, so your pictures stay organized from the start.

    Whether you’re uploading pictures from a hard drive, a USB stick, or another cloud service, Proton Drive makes the transition simple and private.

    Update now and start moving your photos

    Photo import is available now in the Proton Drive app for Windows. Download the latest version to start transferring your photo library from Google Photos — or any other source — into a private, encrypted photo storage space only you can access.

    Get Proton Drive on Windows

    At Proton, we believe your pictures are too personal to be scanned by surveillance systems or analyzed by algorithms. That’s why we built Proton Drive — and the rest of the Proton ecosystem — with end-to-end encryption at its core. Your photos are visible only to you and the people you choose to share them with — not us, marketers, AI training models, data brokers, or anyone else.

    If you use Apple, we haven’t forgotten you: Photo import support for macOS is coming soon. Stay tuned.
