Suggestions for Proton Wallet – Email Aliases & Personal Bitcoin Node Support
Big fan of Proton and I use nearly all of their services. Proton Wallet is another great addition and I’m happy to give it 5 stars.
Two privacy features I’d love to see added: support for Proton email aliases when sending/receiving Bitcoin via Email, so users don’t have to expose their primary email address, and the ability to connect to a personal Bitcoin node/Electrum server, ideally over Tor using a .onion address.
These additions would make Proton Wallet even stronger for privacy-focused Bitcoin users.

Proton BTC Wallet
Perfect self custody wallet. Easy to setup and use. A great fit with my other Proton apps where I know Proton value my privacy and not my data.
Love it
Great bitcoin wallet with option to email bitcoin.
Multisig function
Would be great if y’all were able to add multisig function
Works good
Always found Proton Wallet to be a random app they released to their suite of products. Overall it works great…just wish that they had an option to make it more of a digital wallet outside of just bitcoin. Having features that allowed for daily card transactions, and other crypto would be really handy. Overall, the app has been a great resource for bitcoin at the very least.

Simple, does what I need it to do!
Simple, clean wallet without trying to sell me things!
Lost everything-scam
App froze and would not allow me to save my assets, essentially proton robbed me of millions of dollars worth of Pepe
Utility
Well the wallet serves its purpose quite well to just store and keep bitcoin safe. It would be awesome if it would calculate ur average cost and gains for you. The transferring fees that you pay whenever transferring crypto from wallet to wallet is not horrible and it’s worth it if you’re paranoid about asset security. In my opinion it would be cool if they added more mechanics like being able to buy crypto (LINK, BTC, ADA) through the app but for the sole purpose of keeping ur bitcoin safe I’d give it a 9/10. I combined it with a password manager and used all the extra safety precautions but I feel like it could still be more secure. I’m a fully integrated proton user. I use all their products and like every other project done by them, it’s amazing :). Hope to see a bank/card wallet or something like it soon!

OK but limited in scope
Part of the Proton ecosystem. A decent wallet, but a bit limited…only offers BTC.
Great app
Wish they could do like Apple wallet does but still decent
Another great Proton product
Not much to say besides good job guys, another easy to use, secure product
Small dark app icon
Put the app in a folder, then there’s a dark app icon missing…
A privacy wallet without a privacy coin
Add monero support and I will give 5 stars.
Zero Privacy
If you add Monero, I will change my review to 5 stars. :)

Excellent
Easy to use and understand. Secure and responsive.
Please Fix Dark Mode Icon
Dark mode icon reverts to white inside of folder on iOS Home Screen.
Simple to use and user friendly
If fisher-price did crypto they would envy the UX of Proton, legitimately review reader, if I can work it out anyone can. Bravo Proton and thank you
Good Wallet
Transaction fees are small
Die Wallet ist ok,
für das was sie sein soll. Als unlimited Kunde wollte ich alle Produkte nutzen so auch die wallet. Ist eine normale Hot Wallet mit der Funktion die Gebühren nachträglich zu erhöhen was gut ist. Was dringend kommen muss sind automatische Benachrichtigungen bei Geld Ein- und Ausgang, das muss man manuell aktualisieren. Nutze es auch als Mining Wallet. Und ich will kein 2fa und keine freunde einladen, warum muss ich mir die Buttons dazu trotzdem jedes mal ansehen im Hauptbildschirm? Und ETH wäre top das nutzt man öfter mal als BTC.

Love Proton, but this one choice makes zero sense
I’m a long-time Proton user and a big supporter of their mission. I pay for the full suite, and I trust Proton more than almost any company when it comes to privacy, encryption, and transparency. That’s why I was really excited to see Proton launch their new wallet — until I realized the only supported cryptocurrency is Bitcoin (BTC).
That decision feels totally backward for a company built on privacy. Bitcoin is public by design — every transaction is permanently visible on the blockchain. There’s nothing private about that. If Proton truly wants to align the wallet with its brand and values, the first and only coin that should have been supported is Monero (XMR) — the only major cryptocurrency that actually protects user privacy.
Anyone can find a decent Bitcoin wallet. But a truly secure, privacy-centric wallet from a company like Proton that supports Monero (XMR) would be revolutionary. I’m still a loyal Proton user, but this feels like a missed opportunity. Supporting Monero (XMR) would make Proton Wallet live up to the same standard of privacy the rest of the ecosystem represents.

Thank you for your feedback. It's important to note that we chose Bitcoin to be the foundation for Proton Wallet because it is the most widely adopted and decentralized digital money. While we'll make sure to document your altcoin request accordingly, Proton Wallet is a Bitcoin-only wallet at this time. If you've found it useful as such, we'd appreciate it if you adjusted your rating to reflect this.
