User Interface Refresh for Fire TV/Android TV + inclusion of profiles
A major overhaul/refresh of the Fire/Android TV apps to bring in some cohesion with Apple TV, Windows and phone apps.
Also to include profile options like Fastest Location (excluding my country) for the TV apps. If not profiles, at least the Fastest Location (ex.) option.

Split tunneling - Exclude one specific URL only.
Split tunneling - Exclude one specific URL only.
On my local network, I have to use a browser to access the settings for my Ethernet box. I could exclude the browser. However, I would prefer to exclude only the Ethernet box URL and be protected for other URLs.
Note: I haven't found a solution to this problem. My “Allow LAN connections” setting is enabled. It doesn't allow access to the Ethernet box, probably because of the browser session, I guess.

Microsoft Edge for Android Extension
Microsoft Edge on Android now supports browser extensions, yet the number of available VPN extensions is extremely limited. At the moment, only a few providers such as AdGuard, Browsec, and NordVPN are present in the Edge Add-ons store.
Although ProtonVPN already offers an Android application, it establishes a system-wide VPN connection. Many users would prefer a browser-only VPN option that routes traffic only from the browser without affecting the entire operating system. A ProtonVPN extension for Microsoft Edge on Android would address this need, offering a lightweight, flexible, and privacy-focused browsing solution while expanding ProtonVPN’s presence on mobile platforms.3 votes -

Please add an option to show current country via mouse-over in the tray
The topic says it already. Instead of having to open Proton VPN to check which country is active, just hovering over the tray/notification area symbol should give us the info, to which country we are connected.

Adult content filtering
Adding adult content filtering option for NetShield feature would be most welcoming for families or people trying to be free of its negative effects for themselves.
I have to use custom DNS option from outside of Proton VPN which can be risky for privacy concerns.
Filtering out industry that too often is predatory, capitalizing on peoples loneliness or people in desperate situations is a net positive in my opinion for everybody involved.

Reuse keys / change peer in WireGuard configuration
Currently if you generate a configuration through account.protonvpn.com/downloads the private key will only be valid for the server you chose. If you want to change the server, it's not enough to replace its public key and endpoint address for another Proton VPN server, you have to generate a new configuration with a new private key.
In an ideal world, I could generate a single configuration / private key, and later change out the VPN server endpoint. This would make it a lot less hurdle to switch VPN servers on routers.

Allow unauthenticated access to HTTPS Squid proxies from Proton VPN IP ranges
One important feature other privacy VPNs offer is the ability to use proxies for per-service split-tunneling. For example, when using the Firefox Multi-Account Containers extensions, one can assign different HTTP or SOCKS5 proxies for different containers. This allows users to compartmentalize multiple online identities by assigning a different IP address to them. Some desktop apps also support specifying a proxy.
Proton has already stated that SOCKS5 won't be supported because it doesn't meet some security requirements. However, Proton already operates HTTPS Squid proxies, because they are used by the Proton VPN browser extension.
These HTTPS Squid proxies require authentication though,…

Improve the speed of "Auto startup".
It takes a lot of time for Proton VPN to launch & connect to a VPN server automatically. I log on and have to wait a lot before being able to use the internet as I have to wait for Proton VPN to connect to a server. This is really annoying and is like my number one concern with Proton VPN.
One proposed fix was: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932836-proton-vpn/suggestions/44812795--feature-request-connect-on-boot, which says "completed" but no matter how hard I try to find this function, it, as far as I know, doesn't exist.
Please do something about this. I'm not a developer so I…

Never Auto Connect to a VPN in My Location
Inside Kill Switch, I want a check for never auto connect to a vpn in my country.
Sometimes I connect to country X, but I have connectivity issues which causes VPN to disconnect, then it retries to connect again multiple times.
When connection is back online, it connects to a VPN in my country, which is exactly what I'm avoiding.3 votes -
Android TV Updater
Please look to include a built in updater, it’s madness that one has to go to the google play store to update it especially when wanting to de google.

A system for transfering included/exluded application paths when updating versions of ProtonVPN
Right now, user's have to go though and manually recompile the list of included/excluded applications(or IP's) when using the split-tunneling feature. This is more than just inconvenient, it is a security risk, opening the door for increased chances of user error.
The implementation of this feature doesn't have to be complicated and would definitely provide a quality of life increase for the applications user's.

Allow at least wildcarding of file paths for split tunnel rules
It would be nice to allow wildcards or folders or some other means of defining more general split tunneling rules beyond pinpointing a single exact executable path.
For instance, Discord.exe always changes its subfolder in your %AppData%/Local/Discord every time it updates to include the version number. I.e.
%AppData%/Local/Discord/app-1.0.9218/Discord.exeIt would be cool to add it as maybe *Discord.exe or something. Or, maybe as a folder:
C:/Users/blah/AppData/Local/Discord/Currently, I am forced to re-add it every single Discord app update. Unfortunate given that this poses an existential IP leak threat, since in order to add the latest Discord.exe path, it first has…

Split-Tunneling App List
The current implementation of Split-Tunneling is good but I ran into a problem adding XBOX GamePass Games to it because the folder permissions does not allow Proton to open the .exe Files. I tried it by adding access rights for my user and for administrators but it still does not work.
My feature suggestion: Add a list of installed or currently running apps that we can easily select for split tunneling.
Or maybe a seperate Feature to add all XBOX App/GamePass Games to the exclusion4 votes -

Improve error message when trying to connect to a VPN without NetworkManager.service
I am using Omarchy and when I installed the proton-vpn-gtk-app package and tried connecting, it displayed the generic error message "Something went wrong | An unexpected error has occured". I had to check the logs to figure out that the reason why it was failing was that the NetworkManager.service daemon was not running, because Omarchy uses systemd-networkd. Unless there's a skill issue on my end, I would like to suggest displaying a more clear error message when that happens, so the users quickly know to switch to NetworkManager if they need to use Proton VPN.

Better support for GNOME's "Background Apps" feature
Not every Linux desktop environment comes out with support for tray icons, the most infamous one for that being GNOME, one of the most popular desktop environments. Since GNOME 44, it focuses on a "Background apps" feature, which uses xdg-desktop-portal to find apps running in the background, with the ability to show them.
Personally, I must say I like that feature, and would like to avoid installing extensions adding back the tray. At the same time, I'd love it if the Proton VPN was able to start minimized on login in my prefered DE, especially since it's possible for other…
