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.

Register-free access to VPN (critical for countries like Iran)
In countries like Iran it is very complicated to use proton vpn for very strange reason : it needs registration, and because proton VPN is blocked you CAN'T register. It is very critical thing for countries that block vpn very hard. Recently proton VPN released Stealth protocol. I think it's good idea to let users connect before registering, allow 50-100MB traffic, it is enough to register.
Once again, for people in countries with strong censorship it will be life saving. Please do it, Stealth is the only protocol that works in Iran.

Peer-to-Peer Mesh Networking with NAT Traversal
Enables direct peer-to-peer VPN networking, like Tailscale or ZeroTier. This would allow devices on my Proton VPN account to see and connect to each other using private IPs, as if on the same LAN.
This kind of functionality would be very helpful for cloud gaming, remote development, and device syncing, without needing a third-party solution.
Specifically, I’m asking for:
Private IPs for each device on the VPN
Peer-to-peer connectivity with NAT traversal
Optional routing via Proton servers when needed
Thank you for all your amazing work — this feature would make Proton VPN even more powerful.

Add Stealth to Router Downloads
Please add the stealth protocol to router download options. Currently you support standard and secure core features only on UDP/TCP. Adding Stealth mode as a configuration download option would allow me to better secure all of my network.

IPV6 support in WireGuard Configuration Files
IPv6 is supported when using certain desktop apps, and so all of the IPV6 endpoints must also exist for the various VPN servers. However, they are omitted in the WireGuard configuration files when downloading directly (for example, for using wg-quick or other WireGuard application directly).

Firewall support within ProtonVPN
If possible, I would like for some basic Firewall settings to be built into ProtonVPN as I can't run both NetGuard (a Firewall only app that acts as a local VPN) and ProtonVPN at the same time on an un-rooted Android phone.
I am mainly looking for the ability to block certain apps from having access to WiFi / Mobile Data.

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.

Block Malware by maintained database (not just dns)
To my understanding you now only block malware based on dns. I would think it would be very nice if also ip addresses of bad actors would get blocked by using realtime databases of such attackers.

Partner with another VPN for fully-independent exit hop.
Partner with another credible VPN to create a fully-independent exit hop. This keeps users activity private even from Proton.
Obscura VPN (https://obscura.net/#faq-technical) has already partnered with Mullvad to offer the same thing. If privacy is the goal then this is a no brainer.

Add existing Android settings to Android TV
Today, there is no "Settings" section in Android TV app, which means it is impossible to activate features like NetShield, which would be very convenient to avoid ads on TV.

Latency display
When you click on a country, the list of servers for that country appears. The only thing missing is the latency you are getting from that server. For example, I click Estonia, I see all the Estonian servers. Right next to each Estonian server, there would be a number telling you what ping you're getting, like 150ms. I think this feature would be a useful one to add because choosing a faster connection would be easier if you could see the latency. Also, with this ping, for the box that shows your internet speed over a time period of 60…

VPN per site
It would be nice to add a feature to browser extension that would allow to set up different VPN countries (or lack of VPN) per site. This is (or at least was) possible in Zenmate.

Override GPS Location (Mobile)
On mobile, as a complement to the VPN it will be spectacular to have an enhacement where the GPS gets override and match the location of VPN location (as an enabled option).
Ex. apps will think GSP location is same as the VPN location.

Porn/adult sites blocker for NetShield
Warp (CloudFlare) has a feature for their equivalent of NetShield that also blocks porn/adult sites from the DNS, in addition to options for malware and ads. Consider adding this for a family-friendly setting?

Allow Local DNS entries for Custom DNS
The ability to add a local IP address (10.0.0.0/8, 172.16.0.0/12, 192.168.0.0/16) for Custom DNS.
Like many others, I run Pi-hole at home for DNS blocking and local DNS records. With the current version 4.2.1 on Windows, if you add a local IP address to Custom DNS, DNS resolution will fail. I only need a VPN for a handful of programs, and I would like the rest of the computer to be as untouched as possible (no whole-device DNS changes & more).

Improved feature list for Apple TV
Apple TV works OK but is bare on features compared to the Android TV app. Would like to see a more complete feature list for the Apple TV, such as split tunnelling, choosing with server within a country, which Protocol etc.
