  1. Apple TV app

    Buried in Apple's tvOS 17 announcement is support for 3rd party VPN apps on tvOS. It would be amazing if Proton VPN had a tvOS app.

  2. Add Favorite Servers feature

    I'm using chrome extension. I have a list of frequently used servers. I like to bookmark them for quick access.

    ATTENTION: I am a new user with 3 years subscription. I would have had hard time without this feature. So I will get my money back if this feature is missing. Say with me, you will implement it, and when it's done.

    Thank you very much!!!

  3. Subject: Suggestion for dedicated IPs at Proton VPN

    Dear Proton VPN Support Team,

    I hope you are well. First of all, I would like to praise you for the excellent service you provide with Proton VPN. I am an enthusiastic user of your VPN services and appreciate the security and anonymity they offer me when surfing the Internet.

    However, I recently noticed that some websites tend to block or complicate access from VPN servers. This can sometimes be frustrating, especially if I want to access information or services hosted on certain websites.

    In this context, I would like to give a suggestion. It would be great if Proton…

  4. Snooze function

    Some websites block the usage of VPNs it would be great if we could snooze the VPN for a few minutes without having to disconnect and then reconnect manually.
    Would be extra good if it could be done with a right click on the taskbar or system tray icon.

  5. Geofence auto-connect

    Being able to set the VPN to autoconnect when it goes to mobile data, certain wifi networks, or all except for certain wifi networks would be super helpful. For example, whenever I am not on my home Wi-Fi it would auto connect, no matter if it is mobile data or a public hotspot, etc.

  6. Make an official package for arch linux instead of the AUR package

    Why is there not an official arch linux package at this point? I think it would be awesome to just enter "sudo pacman -S protonvpn" in order to install it.

    It's not like arch linux is an lesser known operating system.

  7. Port Forwarding support for MacOS

    Port Forwarding is available on Windows but there's no ETA about its availability in Mac (OSX).

    MacOS is behind not only in Port Forwarding but also Split Tunneling and that's a lot. Need to priority feature parity.

  8. More comprehensive blocking abilities

    Blocking of ads and trackers is an important part of maintaining user privacy and the ability to browse the internet without being constantly surveilled or provided with skewed content based on the decisions of algorithms.

    NetShield is cool, but it would be great to have a more comprehensive blocking capability in Proton VPN similar to the likes of AdGuard. Currently, it is clunky to use AdGuardd or DuckDuckGo tracking protection together with VPN because most platforms allow only one VPN connection at a time and a "fake" VPN is necessary for the blocking services to work.

  9. implement Rosenpass over wireguard and stealth protocols

    https://rosenpass.eu/
    https://rosenpass.eu/about/

    From the site:

    "In recent years, “Quantum Computers” have become visible on the horizon as we look towards the future ‒ computers so powerful they could break any current cryptographic standard. Standards that ensure the safety of our online banking or the authenticity of a website pretending to be the BBC, the Reuters news bureau or your favorite low-cost airline.

    Rosenpass is an important precaution against what is to come: a safeguard. It is a computer programme installed and run in parallel to WireGuard, making it immune to attacks from Quantum Computers. Rosenpass doesn’t change the way WireGuard…

  10. VPN default profile

    VPN default profile. I use VPN for work and created a dedicate profile for it. Unfortunately there is no way for me to select the default profile, so whenever it conennects it takes the first fastest server making me change to the profile. I would like to have the possibility to change the default profile.

  11. Separate password for VPN

    Please make it possible a separate password for VPN. Other family members are using VPN, don't wanna share the password used for mail/drive/calendar. I know the 2FA can make some difference, but still deeply dislike it. I have installed Wireguard apps, and used different config files, but it is very limited to one server/or one set of settings.

  12. Please re-build ProtonVPN Linux GUI app with Qt Framework

    Hi! I like the ProtonVPN GUI app on Linux. It has so many good features.

    But I think that the choice of GTK was a mistake. This framework is just one large piece of garbage - from both points of view - devs and user experience.

    1. Most serious, quality and useful apps for Linux (about 90%) are uses Qt Framework.

    2. GTK is unpopular. Every year more and more existing Linux software are rewritten with Qt Framework. It's stable and gives better look'n'feel experience.

    3. GTK development is chaotic. The developers themselves don't know what they want. It looks like that GTK…

  13. use DNS with DoT (dns over tls) or DoH (dns over https)

    This is critical because the most people use a DNS with their own ISP.
    The DNS can leak their true location.
    Your vpn solution is not complete without DNS encryption.

    And please don't forget Linux not just Windows, Apple or Google.
    Thanks

  14. Additional Options for ProtonVPN Profiles

    In ProtonVPN Profiles, I would like options for Kill Switch and Netshield, so those settings can be set independently for my various profiles.

  15. Linux systemd-networkd Wireguard DNS config

    Please add a flag to generate Wireguard configs which work with systemd-networkd. Especially the DNS settings are tricky. To get it to work I always have to replace the DNS config with:

    PostUp = resolvectl dns %i <dns server ip>; resolvectl domain %i "~."; ip route add <server ip> via <iface ip>; sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disableipv6=1
    PreDown = resolvectl revert %i; ip route del <server ip>; sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable
    ipv6=0

    I believe this is a quick fix and it would make using wireguard configs easier.

  16. Add criteria options for Quick Connect

    The "Quick Connect" button connects to the fastest available server; however, not all servers are made equal. If I want to connect to the fastest server that supports streaming, P2P, or Tor (or some combination thereof), then I have to go to the server list and manually compare available servers, then pick the one that is best. This is especially concerning with P2P, since even different servers in the same region don't consistently support it, and there's no easy way to see the supported features of the server you're connected to without finding it in the server list.

    It would…

  18. split tunneling for domain name

    Current split tunneling allows IP address and application. The IP address is an unreliable way to open a bypass to an external website.

    Please add the ability to split tunnel to a domain name. This would help with various sites that block VPN Server IP addresses.

  19. Different region coverage for India other than New Delhi

    India has a wide variety of languages, the most common being Hindi, Telegu, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada. The connection to New Delhi may be impacted by Netflix restrictions for region-specific phrases in particular. More people watch Indian films in Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, and Telegu than in Hindi. So, instead of just connecting to New Delhi, think about connecting to those similar states in India.
