Proton, the Swiss company specializing in privacy protection, is preparing a major update of the ProtonMail application. The goal is to provide a faster, smoother, and more modern experience across all platforms. Objective: Enhance security without compromising usability.
A complete redesign planned for this year
In a recent announcement, Proton unveiled the first images of the new application, which should be available in the next weeks. This new design is inspired by modern interface standards while preserving the company’s strong commitment to privacy.
The redesign is not just about looks. The application has been completely re-engineered to deliver better performance, faster synchronization, and more intuitive navigation. Users will be able to access their emails more quickly, manage labels more smoothly, and benefit from an improved search engine.
Unified development across all platforms
Proton is adopting a new approach by bringing its development teams together around a unified codebase. This will ensure a consistent experience whether on Android, iOS, Windows, macOS, or Linux. The company also promises more frequent updates and better support for features specific to each platform.
The roadmap includes a first beta release in the second half of 2025. Subscribers to paid plans will have priority access to test this new version before its global rollout.
Privacy remains at the heart of the project
Proton Mail will remain end-to-end encrypted, as always. The service collects no user data and shows no ads. The new application will also integrate additional tools to block spy pixels and common tracking attempts in emails.
According to Proton, the new interface will make these protections more visible and easier to configure, which should strengthen user trust in their electronic communications.
An expected evolution to face competition
With competitors like Tutanota and Skiff, Proton Mail needed to evolve. This redesign is therefore strategic to maintain its position among the leaders in secure email. It also comes at a time when awareness of personal data protection has never been stronger.
To learn more about this new application, the full presentation is available on the official Proton blog.
