Static Port forwarding
Please change the dynamic port forwarding to static port forwarding why:
In my BitTorrent client I have +200 torrents, dynamic port is boring because EVERY TIME I connect to a server I have to change the port in the BitTorrent client settings and the re-announcement is really long for all my torrents.
Please add to the ProtonVPN dashboard panel or in the application, the possibility to add static port like MullvadVPN do, example for the ProtonVPN Plus plans add the possibility to add 10 random forwarded ports.
Plus static forwarded port may work if you use the manual configuration: OpenVPN…

Qnap and synology NAS support
An app for Qnap (and Synology?) NAS would be really helpful it is impossible to use Qnap's vpn manager on third party app so using it as a client through OpenVPN is useless in a lot of situations... As of now no VPN provider has an app for it even on unofficial repo.

[Feature Request] Connect on Boot
Hello, I would like to suggest adding a <Connect on Boot> function to ProtonVPN Desktop App.
But first, let me give a drill-down on what is Connect on Boot.
🔺What is Connect on Boot?🔺
A. This allows the VPN app to load and connect before the user successfully login on the Computer Login Screen.B. This is completely different from Connect on Login which requires the user successfully logged in to the computer and for the VPN app to successfully load on the program startup queue before it starts connecting.
C. Connect on Boot is the perfect companion for users…

Control the blocklists used by Netshield for ad blocking
Please add the ability for users to control the blocklists used by Netshield for ad blocking. Most other tools (such as PiHole, Next DNS etc) allow users to manually:
1. Specify which blocklists to activate
2. Add sites to a white list (this is often needed to get newsletter sign-up forms and login forms on subscription and e-commerce sites to work properly)
3. Add sites to a blacklist (custom blocklist).17 votes -
ProtonVPN: better support for arm linux (Raspberry Pi, PinePhone, etc)
ProtonVPN gui and cli can be installed on various operating systems running on different arm devices. It seems that Debian-based OSes like Raspberry Pi OS and Mobian cannot properly use either tool. The connection fails and ultimately you are unable to access the internet. In order to correct this you need to run:
sudo nmcli connection delete pvpn-ipv6leak-protection
as suggested here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1319033/internet-stops-working-after-installing-protonvpn.
It would be nice to see more devices/oses supported. Until then when the connection fails at least it should clear any connection leftovers automatically.

Show current connected profile label in the GUI
When connected to a profile, the Windows GUI shows:
Country >> Server
IP Load
Protocol SpeedsIt would be nice to see current profile name there as well. And also the profile may be highlighted in the list to indicate that it is currently connected. Without this feature it is hard to tell at a glance which profile is being used at the moment. So the user either has to memorize all the servers, or always reconnect to the needed profile to ensure it is being used.

Folder selection for Split Tunneling
Easily exclude all sub-executables of a service by selecting a whole folder instead of having to manually select every file by hand.
As an example, Steam needs much more than just the main executable and the game's executable to work properly with Split Tunneling.

iOS 14 Home Screen Widget
It would be great to be able to add a Widget to the home screen on iOS that includes:
- connection status (as an easily visible background color would be great)
- quick-connect buttons if disconnected (to profiles and/or recently connected servers)
- a disconnect toggle (can it include a confirm notification?)8 votes -
Dynamic IP address
IP addresses of servers should be changed on daily basis as it will not get detected as a "VPN IP Address" by sites who block internet connections when they see shared IP address.

Support connecting over http/socks5/Tor bridges
Although ProtonVPN may not directly provide bridges, it would be convenient for users living in places with strong internet censorship to have ProtonVPN over their censorship circumvention proxies, which might not be secure. Routing traffic through those insecure proxies to ProtonVPN will provide their accessibility to the outside internet securely.
Usually, Shadowsocks/V2Ray/Clash, the famous censorship circumvention tools, provide http/socks5 proxies locally. ProtonVPN could connect to the Internet over them.

ipv6 support
Please do support IPV6 connectivity (The purpose being to be to establish ipv6 connections through the tunnel)
(Currently, IPV6 needs to be disabled to use protonVPN otherwise there is ipv6 leakage. As a result, ipv6 connectivity is broken when using protonVPN)

Add ability to exclude country's servers for quick connect
When I use the Quick Connect feature it always connects to servers in my country (Russia), but in my case, it is useless because I use a VPN to access servers that are blocked in my country. And because of this, the Quick Connect feature becomes totally useless. Could you add an option in preference to exclude servers that are located in the configured countries from quick connect servers?

Allow adding multiple users to an VPN account
Please make an option to add other users on the same network for the VPN service.
My family wants to use VPN at home but I don't want give each person my username and password to log into the ProtonVPN software. I'd rather have a simple family option where you can assign permission to an extra person or two to the same account, at least per network.
Hell, I'd even pay a teensy bit extra too for that feature as I think it's a perfectly reasonable request.
