Introducing Proton Duo: Unlimited privacy for two
Introducing Proton Duo: Unlimited privacy for two
from the team:
Hi everyone,
We launched the Proton family plan over a year ago. Since then, many of you have asked for a more affordable option. Today, we are excited to introduce Proton Duo, our new plan designed to make online privacy more accessible.
You might consider safeguarding online privacy a personal duty, but what about your loved ones? If your partner still depends on Big Tech for their emails, documents, or photos, their sensitive information remains at risk.
For a limited time only, we are offering Proton Duo for $14.99/month with a one-year plan: that’s $60 in annual savings. This is a forever discount, so if you sign up for the promotion, you’ll keep this price forever.
Proton Duo includes:
- 2 users with separate logins
- 1 TB of storage to share + 15 GB of bonus storage every year
- Full access to Proton Mail, Proton Drive, Proton Calendar, Proton Pass, and Proton VPN
- Everything included in Proton Unlimited ($60 yearly savings compared to two separate subscriptions).
How to get started
- Sign up for Proton Duo or upgrade your existing plan.
- If your family member doesn't already have a Proton account, they can create one for free.
- Invite your family member to your Proton Duo plan.
Use our Easy Switch tool to move your emails, calendars, and contacts from other providers to Proton in just a few clicks. Whether you're already using Proton or new to our community, Proton Duo makes it easier than ever to protect what matters most.

At Proton, we're on a mission to improve everyone's privacy on the internet. By choosing Proton, you're taking a stand for privacy—not just for yourself but also for your loved ones.
We'd love to hear your thoughts!

The main thing keeping my partner from leaving Big Tech services is that Proton Calendar and other basic functionality sucks balls. The pricing plan is great but for the love of God, fix the basics and stop with all the new nonsense like AI and crypto.
yeah, same thing here. like, how can I explain my wife that is less technical than me, that "hey, this Proton service is great for privacy and all, but you won't have Calendar widgets and notifications when I add stuff to our shared calendars", and she will be like "why?" and I will be doomed. I can accept those things, cause I care more about privacy, but she doesn't and she prefers functionality over that
Yep.
won't have Calendar notifications when I add stuff to our shared calendars
Is why I left the wider Proton ecosystem. I want to come back, but I'm waiting to hear that it's fixed.
That sounds like me and my wife. She's not going to give up her calendar, photos, etc. She's always asking me, so what keyboard do you use? What calendar do you use? What xyz do you use? And I'm always saying... yeah, you don't want to go there. Just use what you want.
This is one of the few things keeping me from getting a family plan and switching everyone over.
100% this. So often prioritizing privacy means giving up a thousand little creature comforts
and she will be like "why?" and I will be doomed.
Exactly the same reason here. DOOMED.
Man, I wished they focused on Drive and Calendar. Still no Linux client for Drive :/
I really wish they'd support WebDAV sync or something for drive, then they wouldn't have to build a client. Their Linux support is always really poor IMO and it's frustrating. You'd think a privacy oriented company would support the most privacy conscious os
I watched an interview with the CEO on the Linux Tech Channel I believe (the french linux guy) and the problem is as usual, that the Linux userbase is too small. Proton, being a fully venture capitalist free company, meaning funded by the users (which is great), has to implement what the majority of users want and those are unfortunately IOS, Android, Windows, and a bit of MacOS. Linux is very far behind those, so comparing the size of the user base vs the amount of features, I'd say Proton isn't doing too badly.
@proton_lynx @asdfasdfasdf This is the biggest reason why I cannot commit to Proton 💯
RClone? I understand it’s a bit hacky but it works well for me in testing and is a generally accepted option for cloud storage of all kinds on Linux.
@PassingThrough @proton_lynx Unfortunately the current implementation does not support photo syncing
Yeah I’ve been kinda surprised and annoyed at the speed with which Proton has gone from “we’re getting our shit together” to “here is a decent professional product” to “let’s add some bullshit that no one is asking for!”
The core stuff is getting better. Calendar, in particular.
AI/crypto is still dumb.
