Proton VPN Statistics on Logged-in Account Page
Hi,
I use Proton VPN on a router with WireGuard configuration and the generated config.
Since the Proton VPN apps provide statistics for:
- Server Load
- Total Traffic
- Traffic Graph
- Other?
And since my router doesn't provide any statistics on the VPN connection status, it would be nice to have these statistics on the Account web page.Would that be possible?
Thanks and regards2 votes -

Custom country per the webpage/website and app
Some websites require access from certain country to work and it is annoying to always manually switch the server country while it also changes country for other websites (which may be unwanted).
To improve this, allow VPN extension user to define per web site (and per app - for a VPN desktop: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932836-proton-vpn/suggestions/50600438-split-tunneling-select-which-app-connects-through ) rules so user can select VPN server country for any defined website/app. Maybe such config. section can be combined with existing "split tunneling" section.

Add QUIC Obfuscation for WireGuard
Add QUIC obfuscation for WireGuard to help users bypass firewalls and censorship. This feature was recently added to Mullvad (September 9, 2025) and would be a great solution that would also address other requests for obfuscation on The Voice of the Proton Community.

Access to DirecTV streaming
While connecting to a US server, it would be a nice addition to have access to the DirecTV streaming service.
As of now, there's no way to use it for that streaming service.

Enable custom VPN profiles & seamless multi‑VPN switching on Android (shared kill‑switch)
Android only permits one active VPN at a time, which forces me to disconnect Proton VPN whenever I need to use my work OpenVPN or my home WireGuard tunnel. Because the kill‑switch is tied to the active tunnel, I lose protection during each switch.
What I’d like:
- Import custom VPN configs (.ovpn / WireGuard .conf) directly in the Proton VPN app and save them as separate profiles.
- Profile orchestration: let the app switch between Proton, work, and home VPNs without manually closing the current tunnel first.
- Smart kill‑switch: keep the kill‑switch engaged during the transition, blocking traffic until the newly selected tunnel…

Proton VPN Windows client prevents LAN access. Help!
When the Proton VPN Windows client is connected to the VPN, I am unable to access other PCs on the LAN. If PVPN is disconnected, then the PCs are accessible. The setting in the client to allow LAN access is enabled. The PCs on the LAN all have static IP addresses, as do all the networking devices. So, how can LAN resources be made available when PVPN is connected?

Allow a config file or something similar for use during automated installs during Windows Sandbox spinup.
Lots of folks use the Included Sandbox with the Windows Pro versions of 10 & 11. They allow scripts to be run to install apps, like Firefox and VPN's among many others during the OS spinup process.
Allowing the .launcher to have the login and password included would be a great feature or maybe a way to drop a file somewhere that had my configuration info in a place to have your launcher pre-populate those fields for launching the vpn app would be extremely helpful. Having to open my PW manager and copy and paste both the username and password…2 votes -
The ProtonVPN client works great; I wish I could get PVPN and pfSense working that well.
The PVPN client performance is stellar, but I seek similar performance for whole home protection by setting up PVPN in a pfSense VirtualBox VM on a separate laptop which doesn't do much else. I've used PVPN via that setup for years. Running speed tests on the same machine as where the pfSense/PVPN VM is running, I have found to be disastrous: incredibly low throughput, no matter what PC it's running on.
No VPN: 95Mbps. PVPN client: 85Mbps. PVPN+pfSense: 50Mbps (worst case). Those are download speeds given by OpenSpeedTest run from a different PC on the LAN than where the pfSense…

Toggle option to exclude Smart Routing servers in settings
For all ProtonVPN clients, there should be a toggle option in Settings that allows you to exclude Smart Routing servers from your connection. Something like:
"Exclude Smart Routing servers (use only servers physically located in your selected country)"
When you set up your Default Connection to be in your own country, you may be connected to Smart Routing servers which are physically located in another one and therefore will have worse latency.
For example:
A user in Argentina sets their Default Connection to "Argentina" for minimal latency. Without excluding Smart Routing servers, they might connect to a server physically in…

Feature request: Add forwarded port API method
Problem: There is no officially support method for a torrent client to obtain the currently active forwarded port from Proton VPN.
Current practices: The only way I've found to determine the port is to scrape the VPN client log. This is not officially supported and thus brittle, not to mention inefficient.
Proposed solution: Add a lightweight REST listener in the client to respond to API requests. Including forwarded port status, so that a local client can determine if the VPN is currently active, if port forwarding is enabled, and what the current port is. A unified cross-platform client API would…

Replace location switch timers with advertisements
The way that the free version of Proton VPN currently works (on mobile, at least) is that the locations users can switch to are randomised, and there are timers that force you to wait between switches. Not only is this annoying for users, but from a business perspective, it doesn't seem very profitable. I understand that these features are here to encourage people to buy the premium version, but that leaves the people who don't want a subscription not being profitable at all. My proposal is to replace the timers and randomisation with needing to watch an ad to switch…

Physically Located VPN Server on the Philippines
Hello,
Could you please consider adding or switching to a server provider that is physically located in the Philippines?
I’ve noticed that other VPN providers like Mullvad and Windscribe use Zenlayer for their Philippine servers. Perhaps Proton could explore incorporating Zenlayer as well to enhance local connectivity and performance.
Thank you for your consideration.

Ability to re-arrange pinned (favorite) servers
The list of favorites is static at the moment. It would take great effort to re-arrange the list into the desired order, having to remove items, and add them in a planfull matter.
Therefore it would be very handy, if dragging the list items around would be possible. Thanks!

Add Kill Switch option to Proton VPN app on FireTV .
We have Proton VPN Plus but the Amaon/FireTV app does not offer the Kill Switch option. And the amazon app version is not the same as the version on our laptops...why?

Low Profile VPN Servers/IPs
Almost all Proton IPs are polluted with bad reputation due to various malicious acts made through its VPN. This is really really annoying for good users.
I think a large percentage of malicious acts made on Proton VPN servers are done via new accounts that are pretty quickly banned by Proton and by victims- but it still leaves a bad trace on the history of that ip.
I propose a solution that could at least reduce ip pollution for quite a few users- what if we had few servers (or ips) that you only get access to after a year…

Split tunneling, select which app connects through which country
It would be great if Proton VPN split tunneling worked so that I can select which app's traffic is routed through whic country. For example, I'd like to select that Youtube goes through Moldova, Firefox through Netherlands, banking app through Germany etc. This could maybe be built into profiles as well so I can quickly set up even different split tunneling scenarios.

Wireguard Configuration Page
On the Wireguard configuration page, instead of limiting server options for users, how about builtding a filter that would allow users to select the country and city/state. This would allow the list to be generated on demand thus allowing users to select the best server for their use case. This should also minimize the over head of providing the full list and also allowing it to filter out servers that are under maintenance. I think this would be huge imprrovment for usability and could improve customer satisfaction.
