All VPN servers on a global network (a similar feature to Surfshark Nexus)
Currently on Surfshark they have options such as RotatingIP (without any disconnections) thanks to Nexus. This is their name for having all of their VPN severs connected on a global network. This also can change the users server incase of over crowding without any loss of service. (For more info on what it does you can google Surfshark Nexus). Would be nice for a similar feature on Proton.

Netshield ad blocker - add possibility to whitelist domains/subdomains
I need to deactivate the ad-blocker in Netshield when I visit certain websites (eg. Google Analytics). Please add the possibility to whitelist some domains/subdomains so we don't have to disable this feature.

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.

Netshield improvements on all platforms
Netshield works well for the most part but it does not block as many ad networks as I would have anticipated. Some mobile games still show ads when being played while Netshield is enabled. I understand the usability aspect of things need to work, it would be beneficial to offer different levels of blocking so we could adjust the service to or liking or standards. This could be done by offering different levels like standard, advanced, adult, family or custom block lists that are supported through the app.

Real-Time VPN Connection Security and Data Privacy Verification
It would be useful if ProtonVPN could indicate in real time whether the VPN connection is truly active or has been disconnected.
It is important that any data traffic generated during the connection (such as DNS queries, IP addresses, and visited websites) is genuinely not logged or is securely deleted in real time.
It would be helpful if all of this could be verifiably confirmed in real time, so that users can be confident about their data security.

Allow Kill Switch to block Internet when VPN failed to connect on startup.
The kill switch allows you to connect to the internet if Proton VPN failed to connect (during start-up) or if you manually disconnected.
It would be more secure if it only allowed connections through a VPN.
I personally connected to multiple public hotspots without noticing that my VPN was actually off.

Notification if not connected
User sets the time to get notified if they're disconnected for longer than x period.
For users on iOS/android who may temporarily switch off the VPN and forget to toggle it back on, it would be great to have a notification based on a users preference (if not connected for x minutes, notify the user to say they're not connected)

Block malware & trackers (not ads)
To support websites that’s dependent on advertising, I’d like to block trackers whilst refusing tracking.
Writing this I realize it might be the case that it’s not possible to separate ads and tracking since they’re delivered by the same domains. In that case please close this suggestion.

The Proton VPN app should keep statistics of successful connections
… and when choosing a random server to connect to, it should first try to connect to those servers that are most likely to connect based on the statistics of previous connections. In the conditions of total Internet censorship, I feel sorry for the time that the app spends over and over again checking the availability of those servers that are guaranteed to be blocked by the Internet provider using DPI equipment, which Proton's "smart" traffic masking mechanism cannot handle.

Circumventing Censorship and Connection Issues
In regions with strict censorship, NAT mode, campus networks, and other specific environments, a proxy is often required to log in and connect; moreover, success largely depends on luck, and speeds are quite unstable.
I have reviewed the latest proxy protocols—such as hy2, xhttp, and anytls—which have strong anti-censorship capabilities. Why not combine the features of these protocols to develop a new protocol that is compatible, stable, and fast? Based on these protocols, a new configuration file and protocol could be developed, allowing users to choose whether to route traffic through this protocol when logging in, sending the traffic to…7 votes -

Show server load before selecting secure core for each country feature, new version had removed this feature
The new version 4.1.13 did not display the server load before selecting. It is slow and troublesome to connect and found that the country server load is high and I have to switch to another country one by one to find out low server load country and this method is very inefficient and resulting proton and users unnecessary servers connecting and disconnecting. Hopefully this pre-display server load feature before secure core connection can be reinstated back into the new version.

Proton VPN: Add regional DNS resolvers to reduce latency outside Europe
Many Proton VPN users outside of Europe (e.g. in Australia, New Zealand, SE Asia, and South America) experience slow DNS resolution when using Proton DNS via VPN — especially on mobile apps like Proton Mail, which rely on many secure subdomains.
Currently, Proton DNS resolvers appear to be hosted in Switzerland (or nearby), which introduces noticeable latency for users on the other side of the globe — even when connected to local VPN servers like Melbourne or Sydney.
Suggestion: Deploy regional Proton DNS resolvers or mirrors in long-latency zones like:
