  1. Show server latency

    without knowing if I'll get good latency makes people hesitant to subscribe for premium plans. Let people browse the servers and see the latency they get even if it's locked out for free users.

  2. Option to exclude free servers (for subscribers)

    Somewhere in the settings or connection page, please provide a way for paid subscribers to exclude connecting to FREE servers when not selecting a specific server.

  3. Better technlology to bypass websites that actively block VPNs

    I am increasingly facing websites that actively block people when connecting via VPN. I see this trend increasing and it is a threat to privacy.

    There was already a feature request in this regard labeled as "finished". Funny enough, the website mentioned in that request still doesn't work with the VPN enabled: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932836-proton-vpn/suggestions/46860823-bypassing-vpn-blockers-option

    It is really easy for websites to see that the connection is via a VPN and we need better technology design to avoid being blocked for the wrong reasons.

    I certainly don't want to connect to banks or other sites without a VPN connection, especially when in…

  4. Dedicated IP for personal plans

    It is an option for business users and would be a nice add for home users. My wife is sick of all the capchas and blocked sites from the VPN. I have been using Proton mail since 2019 and the unlimited since last year. Had to switch back to mail only until you add the dedicated ip to home users at a reasonable cost.

    Thank you for the consideration.

  5. Select country on free plan

    I want to be able to select the country at least, I don't care if I cant choose the server or not, but its annoying having to connect to a place on the other side of the world. I most likely will stop using this VPN if this is not added back.

  6. Censorship resistance

    Mullvad VPN uses Wireguard obfuscation (UDP2TCP). IVPN on iOS uses V2RAY. Those protocols allows to reliably bypass censorship. Proton on the other hand only has Stealth, which is unreliable and often disconnects.

    Request : Add a censorship-resitant technology such as V2RAY or UPD-over-TCP.

    Sources:

    https://github.com/mullvad/udp-over-tcp

  7. Windows ARM64 app

    Create a version of ProtonVPN that supports and is optimized for ARM64 based systems, that for example run on Qualcomm's Snapdragon X chips. As of right now, the ProtonVPN app cannot connect to any servers in the ProtonVPN app, this suggests that the drivers for the "connection card" in these systems are different and need to be specifically utilized to work.

  9. Use Quantum-Resistant Cryptogtaphic Algorithm

    OpenVPN uses TLS for encryption, Quantum Proof Algorithms including the four selected by NIST are provided by liboqs. The library is already present in repositories of many Linux Distros. liboqs is integrated in TLS, means no additional work is required for the client side. This would be very easy to implement in The VPN.

    Much better alternative would be that Proton makes it's own Algorithm. It would be a good way to add it as an optional feature in the initial stages for testing.

  10. Sort by Server Load

    It would be great if you could select a country in the Proton VPN app and then sort by server load. That would save having to scroll through a huge list to find the servers with the lowest current load.

  11. Feature parity between Windows/Mac and Linux

    I've started using Proton VPN in Windows, and it's a great app, full of resources, with great graphics, many resources, ability to auto-start, start minimized, auto-connect to a profile... The Mac version also looks very similar to Windows'.

    However, recently I changed to Linux (Pop OS, Ubuntu based), and although I had no problems installing the GUI version of the app, it does not even remotely resemble the Windows/Mac version. It's a very, veeeeeeeeery simple app, without the majority of configuration options present in their other OS's counterparts.

    Proton VPN team should dedicate more time to make the Linux version…

  12. Exclude unwanted countries from the list of random and fastest servers.

    It often happens that in random or fastest mode, a connection is established through servers in countries that are not desirable for many people.

  14. Android Widget

    A widget for Proton VPN on Android would be nice. The ability to turn on/off the last connection profile would be the main purpose of the widget. So if you selected Fastest, it would search for the fastest server again. But if you selected a country it would only pick from that country again. And if you picked a specific server, it would try to use that server again. Same idea for Secure Core, P2P, and Tor.

  15. Submit Linux package updates in official distro repos

    Proton VPN is open source and uses well-known and established components of the NetworkManager stack. Due to these two things, there is virtually nothing standing in the way of the Proton VPN team from building and submitting packages officially to Linux distributions like Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, EPEL, etc. Proton VPN is further enhanced by packaging upstream by increasing the availability of Proton VPN software packages in the global software package mirroring network (deterring censorship) and benefiting from improved transparency and openness by building packages through distribution-supported build systems, which are often reproducible.

    The policies of most distros are friendly to…

  16. Pop-up notifications in the Proton VPN application, specifically those promoting Proton Duo

    I'm writing to express my strong dissatisfaction with the recent implementation of pop-up notifications in the Proton VPN application, specifically those promoting Proton Duo.

    As a paid subscriber, I find these pop-ups completely unacceptable for the following reasons:

    1. Disruption: They interrupt my use of the service I'm already paying for.
    2. Irrelevance: I have the subscription I want and need; additional offers are unnecessary.
    3. Respect: As a paying customer, I expect my chosen user experience to be respected without intrusive marketing.

    I request the immediate cessation of all promotional pop-ups within the Proton VPN application for paid subscribers. This is not…

  17. Add Settings toggle to disable pop up promotional ads from Proton (e.g., Black Friday promo)

    As a paid Proton subscriber, when I open Proton VPN I am receiving a pop up modal advertising Proton promotions, such as the Black Friday 2024 deals. I can close the pop up, but it will reappear from time to time. I believe it is hostile to the user experience to not give us the option to opt out of annoying advertisements.

    Please add a Settings toggle in the application that will enable users to disable pop up promotions from Proton.

    User Acceptance Criteria:
    Given I am a paid subscriber of Proton,
    When I open the "Proton VPN" application Settings,…

  20. Proton VPN "timed pause or disconnect"

    There are times when I need to disconnect from the VPN for a short time. Unfortunately, I frequently forget to reconnect and realize I had been operating without a VPN for quite a time.

    Other VPNs have a timed pause or disconnect of VPN services feature. That is, you can disconnect for a specified period (e.g. 5 minutes, half hour, etc.) and then the VPN will automatically reconnect without you having to remember to do so. I found this feature quite useful and is one of the main functional features I find missing in Proton VPN.
