Reconnect option for active profile.
Please add an option to reconnect the active profile. Right now, if I'm using the Fastest Country profile, and I see that my server load is high, I have to disconnect and then connect again, leaving my network open for a second.
I assume that a proper reconnect button would avoid any lapse in VPN coverage.

iOS widget background: remove gradient
I’m grateful for the iOS vpn widget, but the gradient background is an eyesore.
Other apps use a consistent, flat background in their widgets, dark gray in dark mode, and white in light mode. This means widgets from different apps still look nice when arranged into a “dashboard” next to each other — until I add the Proton widget, with its gradient-fade background.
I suppose the gradient is part of the Proton branding but it gets in the way here and should be skipped.

Change the Firefox extension icon based on the split tunneling status on the current domain
Currently, when the user has enabled split tunneling in the ProntonVPN extension for Firefox, the extension icon always remains green even on sites where the VPN is disabled. This can be confusing, especially if the user does not remember which sites they are using split tunneling on and which they are not. In my opinion, it would be much clearer if the icon showed a green padlock on sites where the VPN is active, and a red open padlock on sites where split tunneling disables the VPN.
This request applies both to normal split tunneling and to Inverse Split Tunneling…

"Disconnect" Button over hover profile in profile section
In the profile section, when connected to a particular profile, it should show the button of "Disconnect" button when hovering over that same profile again. Right now, it shows the connect button again, even if it is connected to that profile.

iOS Dynamic Island VPN Indicator
On the iPhone Dynamic Island at the top of the screen, it would be useful for proton vpn to utilize this space that Apple allows devs to use for indicators such as showing that the vpn status if connected or not.
Currently you have to swipe down to see if the vpn is active or if you go into the app to check.
Other apps including other vpns use this Dynamic Island as an indicator for a quick glance/stuatus.

Update extension UI
The extension UI seems to be working with the OG UI, it would be nice to have it updated to a more recent version with new features such as split tunneling being an inclusion list rather than exclusion so I have specific websites (like social media) where I want my vpn on and others I want it off.

Different servers for different applications
In my country some mobile applications don't work with different countries' IPs. It would be nice to specify for those applications one of two options: run without VPN or run with chosen country/server. Especially it is important for applications that run in the background.

Overcome web site blocking via Google ReCaptcha to identify and block Proton VPN
Most sites are now embedding the Google ReCaptcha technology that identifies and blocks silently all Proton VPN servers! This forces the VPN user to add subscription to residential servers (over Proton VPN) to overcome the ReCaptcha blocking. Or to drop completely the vpn!

Kill Switch option in Profiles
Hi ProtonVPN team,
I’d love to see an option added to the profile creation process that lets users set up Kill Switch preferences right from the start. Specifically, it would be great to choose whether the Kill Switch is enabled or disabled for that profile, and also select between the standard and advanced modes.
This would give users more control over how each profile behaves based on their needs. For example, someone might want a profile with the advanced Kill Switch enabled for maximum protection, and another with it off for more flexibility.
Thanks for your time and for continuously…

Support Usage across multiple local users on Mac
Currently some Proton apps are unusable on a Mac with multiple local users. For instance if you have Mac User A and Mac User B both with Proton accounts (PA and PB)
Mac User A installs Proton VPN and Proton Drive and logs into each with PA
Mac User B uses "Switch Users" to log into their local Mac account and tries to use Proton Apps
…*Proton VPN: The app will open and Mac User B logs in with their Proton B account but the VPN will never establish a connection. It will say "connecting" but eventually time out with4 votes -

Enable custom VPN profiles & seamless multi‑VPN switching on Android (shared kill‑switch)
Android only permits one active VPN at a time, which forces me to disconnect Proton VPN whenever I need to use my work OpenVPN or my home WireGuard tunnel. Because the kill‑switch is tied to the active tunnel, I lose protection during each switch.
What I’d like:
- Import custom VPN configs (.ovpn / WireGuard .conf) directly in the Proton VPN app and save them as separate profiles.
- Profile orchestration: let the app switch between Proton, work, and home VPNs without manually closing the current tunnel first.
- Smart kill‑switch: keep the kill‑switch engaged during the transition, blocking traffic until the newly selected tunnel…

Show server load before selecting secure core for each country feature, new version had removed this feature
The new version 4.1.13 did not display the server load before selecting. It is slow and troublesome to connect and found that the country server load is high and I have to switch to another country one by one to find out low server load country and this method is very inefficient and resulting proton and users unnecessary servers connecting and disconnecting. Hopefully this pre-display server load feature before secure core connection can be reinstated back into the new version.

Support More flexible VPN lite package
I'm hoping for a Proton VPN Lite plans with a data limit of 3-5TB per month (priced between $4.99-$5.99 per month). The very unstable speeds and high latency at $9.99 per month are really daunting, and compared to other competing VPN products, I think it have no pricing advantage. I hope your teams'll consider it!

Allow a config file or something similar for use during automated installs during Windows Sandbox spinup.
Lots of folks use the Included Sandbox with the Windows Pro versions of 10 & 11. They allow scripts to be run to install apps, like Firefox and VPN's among many others during the OS spinup process.
Allowing the .launcher to have the login and password included would be a great feature or maybe a way to drop a file somewhere that had my configuration info in a place to have your launcher pre-populate those fields for launching the vpn app would be extremely helpful. Having to open my PW manager and copy and paste both the username and password…2 votes -
The ProtonVPN client works great; I wish I could get PVPN and pfSense working that well.
The PVPN client performance is stellar, but I seek similar performance for whole home protection by setting up PVPN in a pfSense VirtualBox VM on a separate laptop which doesn't do much else. I've used PVPN via that setup for years. Running speed tests on the same machine as where the pfSense/PVPN VM is running, I have found to be disastrous: incredibly low throughput, no matter what PC it's running on.
No VPN: 95Mbps. PVPN client: 85Mbps. PVPN+pfSense: 50Mbps (worst case). Those are download speeds given by OpenSpeedTest run from a different PC on the LAN than where the pfSense…

Enable multiple countries for one profile
Make is possible to choose a pool of countries for a profile with the app choosing the fastest server or randomly choosing one of the countries / servers in the pool.
I usually use 5 different countries for my everyday cell phone usage. I like to switch them from time to time. It would be nice to have them in one profile, so that country changes automatically when reconnecting.
