1. I2P

   I’d like to propose adding native support for the Invisible Internet Project (I2P) to enhance Proton VPN’s offerings.

   I2P is a decentralized, anonymizing network that enables secure, private communication, complementing Proton’s existing Tor support. Integrating I2P could:

   Appeal to privacy-focused users who use I2P for secure browsing, messaging, or file sharing.
   Position Proton VPN as a leader in supporting multiple anonymity networks.
   Simplify setup for users, as manual I2P configuration with VPNs can be complex.
   Suggested features could include dedicated I2P servers, one-click connectivity (similar to your Tor integration), or optimized settings for I2P traffic (e.g., port forwarding or split tunneling). This would make Proton VPN more versatile and accessible for advanced privacy needs.

2. Protecting Your Digital Identity

   (1) Stop INTENTIONALLY BROADCASTING your customers digital identity to SCREENGRABBERS on the Proton VPN splashscreen under the false gaslighting heading "Protecting Your Digital Identity", which you do every single time we change our IP addresses! (2) And find the GOVERNMENT MOLE(s) in Proton who got this EXTREME and OBVIOUS privacy violation designed and implemented in the first place!

   Edit: How has fixing this critical vulnerability not gotten anymore votes by now? If someone doesn't understand what vulnerability I'm talking about, then feel free to ask me. I'll be happy to explain it further.

   Proton VPN is visibly displaying your true IP right now every single time you switch your VPN server. This should concern everyone.

3. Add a "Change Server" Option Before Connection on Windows

   In the free plan, Proton VPN provides access to servers in 10 countries and automatically connects to the fastest available server.

   On Android, while the app is attempting to connect, a "Change Server" option appears every few seconds, allowing users to switch to another server before a connection is established. This is very useful when the selected server is unreachable or blocked.

   However, on the Windows version, the "Change Server" option only becomes available after a successful connection. If the selected server cannot be reached, users may get stuck trying to connect and have no way to switch servers.

   Please add a "Change Server" button to the Windows app before a connection is established, similar to the Android version. This would improve usability and help users connect more reliably when some servers are unavailable.

4. localhost SOCKS5 tunnel like in Mullvad

   I would like to see this feature from mullvad in Proton VPN: https://mullvad.net/en/help/socks5-proxy

   Coming from Mullvad. This feature is great. I put it in Telegram and if VPN is disabled the application can't access the servers of this "privacy" messenger. It hides TCP Fingerprint, too. Reducing captcha and other garbage detections from antibot systems.

8. Custom DNS on Windows

   The Android version currently allows you to set custom DNS servers on a profile-by-profile basis. Windows has a single "custom DNS servers" setting that applies to ALL profiles.

   Make Windows version like Android.

9. VPN Status on Android Control Panel

   Instead of having the status of the connected VPN shown through notifications only. Can we also have the option to expand the quick connect button in the control panel of Android to show the status.

   I don't need to have it keep showing in my notifications but would like to be able to check once in awhile by swiping down to my control panel.

12. Split-tunneling on MacOS: Allow to include/exclude binaries, not just app bundles.

    Currently, split tunneling on macOS is limited to .app bundles, which means command-line tools and system binaries — such as /usr/bin/curl, wget, ssh, or custom scripts — cannot be individually included or excluded from the VPN tunnel.

    Thank you.

13. WireGuard Stealth Mode API/Proxy Support for Third-Party Clients

    Hello Proton VPN Support Team,

    I am a Proton VPN user on Android and I have been using the WireGuard configuration profiles exported from the Proton VPN dashboard with a third-party client (RethinkDNS), which provides per-app firewall and DNS filtering and profiles (e.g. with NextDNS) features alongside VPN functionality.

    I have identified a specific issue with mobile network connectivity:

    • When I establish a WireGuard tunnel over Wi-Fi and then switch to a 5G mobile network, the existing session continues without interruption.
    • However, if I attempt to initiate a new WireGuard connection directly over 5G, the handshake fails entirely.

    This behavior strongly suggests that my mobile carrier performs Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) and blocks the initial WireGuard handshake packets — which have a well-known, identifiable signature — on 5G networks, while already-established UDP flows are allowed to pass.

    The Proton VPN application itself solves this via its Stealth (WireGuard over TCP) mode, which obfuscates traffic and bypasses DPI effectively. However, this feature is not available through the standard WireGuard configuration profiles exported from the dashboard, as it relies on a proprietary obfuscation layer that cannot be expressed in the standard WireGuard config format.

    My request:
    Would it be possible to provide an officially supported method for enabling Stealth/TCP mode in third-party WireGuard-compatible clients? This could be achieved through, for example:
    - A documented SOCKS5 or HTTP proxy endpoint on the Proton infrastructure that wraps WireGuard in TCP, usable alongside standard WireGuard profiles;
    - Or an open-source implementation of the Stealth obfuscation layer that third-party apps could integrate.

    This would greatly benefit users who rely on third-party clients for functionality not available in the official Proton VPN app, while still needing to bypass carrier-level DPI on mobile networks.

    Thank you for your time and consideration.

    Best regards

14. Launch Linux GUI app on boot

    I saw a completed post asking the Linux app on boot, but I guess it is not the GUI version, or perhaps not the one for Fedora.

    For me on Fedora with the GUI version I have to manually launch Proton VPN every time.

    By manually launching Proton VPN:
    1 - The system remains unprotected for a certain time;
    2 - Creates a needless ritual for every session;
    3 - Nullifies the purpose of the kill switch.

    ~/.config/autostart/ , Startup applications or GNOME extensions does not work because the GUI fails to connect during login. Only the kill switch starts correctly this way. A native “start with system” option would solve this.

    Right now we have "auto connect" and "start up minimized" but not a "start up with the system"

18. Latency

    You mention gaming as a usecase but don't display latency for servers.
    I've used/am using Proton VPN but since I couldn't know latency without manually testing every server and then logging into the game , I had to get exitlag just for gaming. Please implement at latency information and if possible implement something similar to exitlag so I don't have to have multiple subscriptions.

19. Auto shutdown when phone put in airplane mode

    I would love for the VPN to automatically stop trying to connect when I place my phone in airplane mode and also have it auto connect when I take my phone out of airplane mode.

    While in airplane mode (with no WiFi services, such as on a flight) the application keeps attempting to connect to a server. This significantly drains my battery, unless I remember to manually disconnect it after toggling airplane mode on.

20. Add a feature to the Android version of Proton VPN that allows you to choose which apps can access the internet.

    Add a feature to the Android version of Proton VPN that allows you to choose which apps can access the internet. This is different from split tunneling; it would give you the ability to block full internet access for apps that don't need it.
    There are already apps that do this, but they use a VPN themselves and therefore cannot be used with Proton VPN.
