  2. What if Proton VPN offered access to SCION?

    SCION is slowly growing to become more integrated leveraged by Anapaya (https://www.anapaya.net/scion-internet). Access to services using SCION like electronic banking solutions is usually limited to companies as they can afford entering SCION networks directly. Inidividuals seem to be limited to "wormhole" themselves into SCION.
    What if Proton VPN offered direct access into SCION?
    If I understood correctly the architecture would be as follows: on my personal device I use Proton VPN connecting to an SCION-enabled (they call ist SCIONabled) VPN server. Whenever I require resources from SCION the Proton VPN server running Anapaya EDGE (https://docs.anapaya.net/en/latest/edge/deployment/#appliance-edge) puts…

  3. Allow profiles to select a city on macOS/iOS

    This is already available with Windows and Android, please bring this existing feature to macOS and iOS.

    It's especially useful for users in bilingual countries, where only being able to select a country at the profile/quick connect level often lands you on a server in a city that speaks a different language (and thus causes websites to default to the wrong language).

    Selecting by city is a tedious manual step on these platforms, and is annoying to have to do by hand every time.

  4. macOS/iOS Feature Parity with Windows/Android

    The Windows and Android apps often lead the way with new features, and those features frequently never make it to macOS or iOS.

    For example, profiles are much more configurable in Windows/Android than they are in the Apple apps. Similarly, if you look at the requests on this site, there are many that are planned for Windows/Android … but will never come to macOS or iOS.

    The macOS and iOS apps are surprisingly limited -- you can't even tell what city you are connected to in the macOS app -- and it's frustrating knowing that other platforms enjoy much more…

  7. Re-order protocols

    Would be nice to be able to change the order in which defined protocols are displayed, so the most commonly-used ones could be on top.

  9. Affordable dedicated ip

    A cheaper plan for dedicated IP (and also available for family/personal accounts). 50,-/month/server is way too much when competitors offer it for 120,-/24 months..

  12. Integration in GL.iNET firmware

    Hi

    You already integrated Proton VPN into Vivaldi browser (wich is closed source and looks pretty shady). So can you consider integration your VPN into GL.iNET firmware?

    I will be really happy with this. And many GL.iNET customers too.

    You can see that it is required by this links:

  13. SmartDNS

    I'm currently a NordVPN subscribere and it looks like all of my needs except one will be met by Proton VPN. The only thing missing is SmartDNS feature:

    SmartDNS is a technology based on using your DNS to unblock geo-restricted sites and services. It’s somewhat similar to how proxy servers route your internet traffic through a remote server to hide your real IP address and physical location.

  15. 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

  16. Split Tunneling as a Premium feature

    Can you enable Split Tunneling in free version? I used plus version for a month and have some setups depending on it but it stopped working.. Free version is enough for my needs, I don't want to pay for all features that i don't actually need.

  17. 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.

  20. Use Split Tunneling to Improve VPN Performance

    Split tunneling allows you to route some of your internet traffic through the VPN while letting other traffic access the internet directly. This can significantly improve performance, especially for activities like streaming or gaming, I had an assignment to research on how can we improve VPNs, so I got this idea from there. When I was working on this idea I hired a research consultancy that helped me in researching the important aspects about this topic.
