1. Allow Killswitch to be enabled with Split Tunnel

   Currently, the app will not allow you to use the Split Tunnel feature if you have the Killswitch enabled. Having migrated from Private Internet Access, I was used to having this possibility with their client and would love to see this in Proton VPN as well.

   Having some exceptions configured to bypass the VPN should not completely block the killswitch feature and open the risk of IP leaks.

   I would be okay with the VPN app completely killing my bypassed connections as well, it wouldn't even have to be gracefully respecting those. That would just be a nice-to-have.

2. Windows App Icon Not Showing When Active Since New Update

   The tray icon on Windows shows a green lock now, but the program itself doesn't on the Taskbar, which was something I looked at the most. Now, I have no idea if my VPN is active without opening the program or navigating to see the tray icon. Please fix.

3. 4.1.13 where is the checkmark in the icon in the tray - this should be checked before every release.

   I don't have a flicker. It's worked before. green check-mark in the tray icon is not appearing today with latest release. It should be checked (no pun intended) before every release. this is not the first time I've had this issue, I had it on at least one other release.

4. Proton VPN: Add regional DNS resolvers to reduce latency outside Europe

   Many Proton VPN users outside of Europe (e.g. in Australia, New Zealand, SE Asia, and South America) experience slow DNS resolution when using Proton DNS via VPN — especially on mobile apps like Proton Mail, which rely on many secure subdomains.

   Currently, Proton DNS resolvers appear to be hosted in Switzerland (or nearby), which introduces noticeable latency for users on the other side of the globe — even when connected to local VPN servers like Melbourne or Sydney.

   Suggestion: Deploy regional Proton DNS resolvers or mirrors in long-latency zones like:

   Australia (Melbourne, Sydney)
   
   South America (e.g. São Paulo)
   
   SE Asia (e.g. Singapore)
   
   North America West Coast
   

   These resolvers could be:

   Accessible only from Proton VPN IP ranges (to maintain privacy)
   
   Operated under Proton’s strict no-logs policy
   
   Geo-routed from VPN exit nodes to minimize DNS latency
   

   This would significantly improve real-world performance for Proton VPN users, particularly for those accessing services like Proton Mail, where even 150–200ms of DNS delay adds up.

   Thanks for considering this — the service is fantastic, and this would make it even better globally.

5. One connection per app (Automatic connect if specific app opened)

   I would like to have the option to have multiple vpn connections open at the same time, but only used for specific apps. I would like to use e.g. Switzerland by default but for netflix use every time US etc. So ideally the vpn client notices that I open netflix and connects for this app exclusively to US.

6. Ability to see current load of selected servers - web interface or API

   I use the router config exclusively.

   Need a quick way other than visiting the web dashboard and drilling down to find current load of any given server... it's cumbersome to visit the web page, click through the menu, scroll down to country, expand the list, then open browser search to find the server you're looking for.

   An API would be awesome. With an API in place, clients could be built for various platforms (windows, mac, ios, browser extension, etc.)

   Then when server loads goes nuts I can quickly switch (via my router app) to another server I have already configured.

7. After update, icon is not in the taskbar

   On Windows 10.

   Since I have about 20 apps that add an icon to the taskbar, I hide many of them.

   I want Proton VPN to be in the taskbar so I know if it is connected or not.

   When Proton VPN is updated, the icon disappears and I have to go back into the task bar settings to re-enable it.

   Thanks

9. Proton VPN for Windows - reconnecting

   When a Windows 11 PC sleeps/hibernates the VPN client does not reconnect and "spins". You have to fully close out of the VPN app, relaunch and then reconnect.

10. Change or revert the new look.

    Companies seem to always go back and forth with this constantly in these industries with making things look more compact. Usually all this does is make it take more clicks to get to something that the user needs to get to making it more inconvenient to use. Function over form please. When trying to pick a certain or specific connection now it takes three to four clicks going through menus when it used to just be a list.

11. Linux beta client: Allow server ranges for the text options

    Currently, one can set two different text boxes in the beta Linux client: "Auto connect", which accepts country codes, a specific server (such as NL#42) or "FASTEST". And then there's "Pinned tray connections", which accepts country code or specific server, multiple entries, comma-delimited.

    While we're waiting for a better GUI, I would like to have the option of picking a specific range of servers for "Auto connect", such as: US#18-25 (for example).

    As well as for "Pinned tray connections", choosing a ranged server entry would pick the best option within that range. A typical "Pinned tray connections" would look like this: NL#42, JP, US#10-18, IT.

12. [Mobile] Network Specific WL/BL Activation

    I would love the ability to be able to have a setting that allows me to whitelist or blacklist specific networks to automatically activate and deactivate VPN connection.

    For instance, if I come home my mobile device doesn't need to use the VPN anymore and it would be whitelisted. Once my phone connects to <home> network VPN deactivates and you get a popup welcome home VPN disconnected or something.

    When I go into work or an area that I don't necessarily trust such as a Starbucks or Public Wifi I would like it to automatically connect to the VPN and give me a similar popup.

    I was thinking I connect to the same network every time I go to office or coffee shop or library etc so if I could see saved networks and toggle trusted/untrusted so the app will detect and connect/disconnect as applicable.

17. Provide an option to manually sort (change order of) "pinned" connections

    First, regarding the WINDOWS client, thanks for the option to "pin" recently used locations/servers (connections). Much appreciated!

    REQUEST: To improve the "pin" function on the WINDOWS client (and potentially other clients), please provide an option to manually sort (change order of) "pinned" locations/servers (connections).

    Currently, on the WINDOWS client, you offer options to "unpin" and "remove" pinned connections.

    In addition to "unpin" and "remove" options, I'd like to have an option to "move" where each pinned connection appears within the list of "pinned" connections. For example, upon selecting the proposed "move" option on the WINDOWS client, I hope to be presented with at least one or more (preferably all) of the following options for moving a pinned connection:

    (a) "move up one" position in the list,
    (b) "move down one" position in the list,
    (c) "move to top" of the list, and
    (d) "move to bottom" of list list.

    Or as a more "ideal" solution, upon selecting the proposed "move" option, I'd like to be asked to type a number corresponding to the position (in the list of pinned connections) where I want the particular connection to appear, i.e., moved to position 1, 2, 3, etc. But I imagine that such an "ideal" solution may be difficult to implement. And if so, please at least implement something similar to the above suggested (move up, down, top, bottom) solution.

    Related to the above request, please also consider providing an option to manually sort "profiles" as described in the following suggestion: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932836-proton-vpn/suggestions/49712741

18. Add proxy on to change country to certain location in the world

    I run a company in another country, and the VPN alone isn't sufficient. If you could set up a proxy to make the devices appear as if they're in a different location, it would greatly help, especially for any government-related work on our website that requires specific location settings and options to be enabled.

19. Allow Users to Choose VPN Protocols on AppleTV App

    Currently there is no way to pick VPN protocols within the AppleTV app, this causes problems when certain networks such as hotels block common VPN protocol traffic like WireGuard and OpenVPN. Stealth mode would be ideal in the circumstance, but currently only the fastest option is supported.
