  1. Cidr Notation for split tunneling

    I currently have multiple subnets, and adding every single host I'd need a split tunnel is impractical. By allowing CIDR notation on the configs, we could allow 10.0.3.0/24 and have a whole slice of the network bypass the VPN.

    As a plus, adding a per-network switch possibility would avoid my 10.0.1.1 (for instance) to be allowed without a VPN on public WiFi, for instance (which ties nicely to the "trusted networks" feature request)

  2. Give us the ablility to exclude specific servers.

    Youtube has been blocking based on IP. Once that happens, I wouldn't mind excluding those servers.

  3. Kill switch should stay on with split tunneling

    I use Proton VPN at the router level, so my home Wi-Fi is already protected. On my laptop, I’d like to exclude my home network from the VPN using split tunneling without disabling the kill switch.

    Right now, having both the router VPN and the laptop VPN running creates a double VPN, which slows down all internet traffic while I’m at home. If split tunneling worked with the kill switch enabled, I could use my home network normally without the slowdown, and when I leave home and connect to any other network, the kill switch would still protect me—no manual…

  4. Clear all formatting in iOS app

    Hello there,

    Could you kindly add the option/alternative/function/button "Clear all formatting" in the iOS app's email editor? I use it all the time in the browser, and miss it on my phone. It's extremely helpful for clearing all formats from e.g., pasted text and more.

  5. Connect Proton VPN on more than one device

    Be able to connect to Proton VPN on more than one device with the free plan! I don't think its fair we have to pay to have my phone and laptop connected at the same time. This should be a standard security feature across all devices. This way I can browse the internet more safely by hiding my location. Please consider making Proton VPN available to connect to more than one device with the free plan!!

  6. ProtonVPN Docker App

    It would be amazing to have ProtonVPN natively support Docker.

    There is a github project that had limited support for this, but seems to be broken now that the logicals API (https://api.protonvpn.ch/vpn/logicals) is depreciated.

    A full featured Docker app would be very much appreciated

  7. Auto Local server

    For many day uses I want to connect to the server of the city I'm actually in to avoid second guesses from myself and other services. (Aka auto local mode.)

  8. Request: Minimal “Connected” View for Android App

    It would be helpful if the Proton VPN Android app offered an option to hide data (MB) usage while connected and instead showed only “Connected” with the selected VPN location in the background.

  9. One-Click App Selection for VPN Split Tunneling

    I am requesting an enhancement to the current split tunneling feature by introducing the ability to select applications from a dynamic list of currently running processes. The existing method requires users to manually locate and select executable files from the system directory, which can be inefficient and cumbersome. Incorporating a user-friendly interface that displays running applications—similar to NordVPN’s approach—would streamline the process and significantly improve usability, particularly for less technically inclined users.

  10. make it possible to use on a Macbook Pro with a Brave and/or Safari browser

    I have been having increasing difficulties accessing websites with my Proton VPN turned on -- I updated the Brave browser this morning and suddenly I am denied access to nearly every website unless I turn off Proton VPN, which pretty much makes it useless.

  11. Desktop app should show an icon in the toolbar that shows open connection, connecting and disconnected

    Right now when reconnecting to the VPN the icon shows a pad lock (green) or a open pad lock (red) when connecting to the VPN.

    I would like to see it changed to show icons as:

    • Green Locked pad lock (Only once connected and data is passing through)
    • Gray Locked pad lock (Connecting to VPN)
    • Red Open pad lock (Not connected to VPN)

  13. Add a timer to do automatic release and re-connect (adding reconnect to lowest # connections server in group)

    I find, on the Mac at least, that my VPN connection will become saturated and will fail after a while. I can solve this by disconnecting and then reconnecting. This seems to flush the tcp/ip stack and allows for network traffic to begin again. I then see qBitorrent is transferring on multiple connections again. Sometimes I need to restart qBitorrent as well, but not nearly as often. I don't know if this is a bug in the tcp/ip stack or how Mac handles the traffic on an OS level. It may also be from the saturation in the network stack…

  14. BPay for ProtonVPN subscription payments.

    So far as I can see, it's not possible to pay for a new or existing ProtonVPN subscription via BPay. This is somewhat limiting/inconvenient for those of us who don't shop online, have credit cards, or otherwise prefer to have as few bank cards/accounts as we can reasonably get away with. BPay offers a secure and convenient means to pay for services without needing a seperate card that, in some cases, will never be used for anything but those payments (ranging from once a month to once every two years).

    To my knowledge, there are no disadvantages nor other reasons…

  16. Import/Export configuration

    As time goes by and new profiles, split tunnelings... are being added, if I have to change my mobile/desktop/laptop or I buy a new device, I will have to check everything in order to replicate the configuration in the device, and apply the configuration manually. Or even worse: if one of the devices dies, I will lose the configuration.
    Hence, it would be good to have the option to export & import configuration files.

  17. Forward More Than One port

    Currently with dynamic forwarding a single port can be forwarded for P2P connections. Sometimes more than a single port is necessary (an obfuscated port). It would be helpful if we had the ability to forward multiple ports within the GUI rather than searching for third-party solutions.

  18. Search for VPN server

    I'd like the ability to quickly type and search for VPN servers/countries, on both iOS and Mac. Surfshark does this and it's such a friendly way to quickly switch to different countries based on my needs. on protonvpn, I have to scroll and search for the flag/abbreviation of the country, which is not a great UX

  19. Manually configuration to in-built Android VPN

    Feature Proposal: Manual VPN Configuration Integration

    Objective:
    Allow Proton VPN users to configure their VPN connection manually using Android’s built-in VPN client, giving users more flexibility and control while maintaining security.

    Why This Feature is Valuable

    1. User Flexibility:
      Some users prefer using Android’s native VPN interface for easier switching, battery optimization, or compatibility with other apps.

    2. Compatibility:
      Supports devices or scenarios where the Proton VPN app may not work, such as corporate or restricted environments.

    3. Enhanced Trust:

  20. Subject: False positive blocking ConvertKit

    Hi Proton Team,

    I’ve noticed that ConvertKit email links are being blocked by NetShield even when set to “Malware only.” Specifically, these domains fail to resolve while NetShield is active:
    ck.page

    convertkit-mail.com

    convertkit.com

    These are legitimate marketing/redirect domains used by ConvertKit, a major email service provider. With NetShield disabled, the links work fine.

    Could you please review and remove these domains from the blocklist so they are not blocked in Malware-only mode?
