Comments and Reviews

   
Comment summary: Proton Calendar is praised for being simple, privacy-respecting, and having a dedicated mobile app. Users appreciate its end-to-end encryption and recent updates that improved usability. However, some criticize it for missing features like multiple calendar creation, offline functionality, and lack of open-source support. Concerns are raised about privacy claims under Swiss law. The introduction of a search function enhanced user satisfaction, though feature parity across platforms is desired.

It is very very hard to make a secure calendar that is usable. Somehow with Proton's most recent update that overhauled a lot of services that were only in beta, they have done it and then some. I was not a Proton Calendar user until the recent massive updates.

Not privacy-friendly! Requires an online account! Those two things are mutually exclusive! And Swiss law requires them to leak your data to the Swiss spying agency and any befriended spying agencies (like Five Eyes, Mossad, …)! I’m a security researcher, and Swiss software is just as critical as US, Russian, Israeli, Iranian, Saudi, or Chinese software. (Because the businesses there got no choice. Not because any businesses there would be evil. But if they claim privacy-friendliness anyway, they are evil.)

Mr. Anon

You can't prove they are "evil." I believe Proton is an incredible company trying its best to be the best privacy-respecting company it can be.

Every individual is responsible for their own threat model, and many people (like myself) prefer an online calendar for sync convenience across all devices. If you want an offline calendar, so be it, but don't put down this calendar just because it is online. Your comment/review can be applied across any online calendar. Thanks.

This is the biggest reason I left Google. Being able to have a calendar on my phone, laptop, and shared with my spouse has made the switch so easy!

I like Proton Calendar because it looks awesome, has all the features I need and sharing calendars with family members works just fine. The biggest problem is parity between platforms (e.g. search is not available on all apps and an iPad version is missing)

I would do five stars if the iOS version would allow you to view most of your daily events in the monthly view and invite others after an event has been created (both just like Google Calendar).

Otherwise, exactly what I need.

Mr. Anon

I've since switched to Android and they have rolled out this feature! Five stars!

According to AlternativeTo, Proton Calendar does not have a standalone app for macOS. I could use the web version from my computer. But can I view my calendar when offline? And when my web browser is closed, do I still get notifications of upcoming events?

Finally, the Proton calendar got a search function! I still used it before, but without a search function, it feels incomplete. Now it doesn't! Therefore: 5 stars!
