  1. iOS Dynamic Island VPN Indicator

    On the iPhone Dynamic Island at the top of the screen, it would be useful for proton vpn to utilize this space that Apple allows devs to use for indicators such as showing that the vpn status if connected or not.

    Currently you have to swipe down to see if the vpn is active or if you go into the app to check.

    Other apps including other vpns use this Dynamic Island as an indicator for a quick glance/stuatus.

  3. Kill Switch option in Profiles

    Hi ProtonVPN team,

    I’d love to see an option added to the profile creation process that lets users set up Kill Switch preferences right from the start. Specifically, it would be great to choose whether the Kill Switch is enabled or disabled for that profile, and also select between the standard and advanced modes.

    This would give users more control over how each profile behaves based on their needs. For example, someone might want a profile with the advanced Kill Switch enabled for maximum protection, and another with it off for more flexibility.

    Thanks for your time and for continuously…

  4. Reconnect option for active profile.

    Please add an option to reconnect the active profile. Right now, if I'm using the Fastest Country profile, and I see that my server load is high, I have to disconnect and then connect again, leaving my network open for a second.

    I assume that a proper reconnect button would avoid any lapse in VPN coverage.

  5. Extend LAN network through VPN

    Add a feature that allows a desktop (or a home server) to be used as an endpoint for VPN connection, allowing the user to use the internet like they are in its local network. Useful to connect to LAN devices safely without exposing them to the Web and for limited services like Netflix that blocks users from other places to connect to the same account.

  6. Use RPKI to protect Proton VPN customers from BGP hijacking

    In 2020, Proton was the victim of BGP hijacking. In a blog post about the incident, Proton said it was securing its own BGP route announcements using RPKI. However, Proton VPN's ISP (M247, AS9009) does not use RPKI to verify other sites' announcements. This can be seen by going to the Is BGP Safe Yet website Proton linked to in its own blog post. Proton should use RPKI to verify the routes to sites its customers visit so the customers are protected from BGP hijacking of the sites they visit.

  7. Show server’s/country’s flag on browser’s extension instead of locked icon

    It would be a nice visualization and addition to
    the browser extension if we could see the flag of the servers or countries we connect to instead of having a green lock. The new browser extension would allow us to see and remember what country we are connected to without having to click the extension every time to see if we are connected . However, when browser extension is not connected to a server I think it is convenient to display a red unlocked icon, since we aren’t connected to a server

  8. Ability to see current load of selected servers - web interface or API

    I use the router config exclusively.

    Need a quick way other than visiting the web dashboard and drilling down to find current load of any given server... it's cumbersome to visit the web page, click through the menu, scroll down to country, expand the list, then open browser search to find the server you're looking for.

    An API would be awesome. With an API in place, clients could be built for various platforms (windows, mac, ios, browser extension, etc.)

    Then when server loads goes nuts I can quickly switch (via my router app) to another server I have already configured.

  9. Proton VPN for Windows - reconnecting

    When a Windows 11 PC sleeps/hibernates the VPN client does not reconnect and "spins". You have to fully close out of the VPN app, relaunch and then reconnect.

  10. Ugly Green. Offer additional VPN app theme color choices.

    The new redesign is great, except for the ugly grandma kitchen green theme. Also, why is the best look you could come up with is some fading fog of war looking filter as if it's a video game from 1997?

    If you're going to stick with the fog of war look, then at least allow us to choose the colors.

    I'm cool with all of the other green, it's just that fog look you got. It's really the only theme color that dominates the entire space. I'd much rather that filter be disabled, but if you won't let us disable…

  11. Add netshield setting to profiles in Windows app

    Allow netshield to be specified on/off in profiles as it is in the Android app. This allows ad-blocking to be turned off easily by connecting to a new profile if a web site is not being displayed properly

  12. Add proxy on to change country to certain location in the world

    I run a company in another country, and the VPN alone isn't sufficient. If you could set up a proxy to make the devices appear as if they're in a different location, it would greatly help, especially for any government-related work on our website that requires specific location settings and options to be enabled.

  13. Business - Organization-wide country whitelist

    As an organization, I want to be able to restrict which countries my employees can connect to.

    This would support geo-filter restricted sites, ensure traffic is not routed through certain countries, and simplify access from the client providing less countries to choose from.

  15. Prioritize physical servers instead of the virtual servers on countries with both

    Right now, in Indonesia we have both physical servers and virtual servers. The thing is, when u click connect to Indonesia. It will randomly choose the virtual servers instead of the physical servers. In my opinion this is a flawed logic because not only do we have more added latency. There are also a few different sites that can tell that Proton's virtual IPs are not actually from Indonesia. Not only that, having ProtonVPN prioritize physical servers means that you will also most likely have a better speed and experience overall because we wont have to worry about the quality…

  17. Android: Proton VPN is functionally worthless for me unless I can turn on kill switch while split tunneling is enabled.

    I'll explain the steps I followed on my Android phone:

    1. I got ProtonVPN, and enabled kill switch to protect myself from data leaks.
    2. I noticed that certain apps (like my bank app and music app for example) didn't work while Proton VPN was enabled.
    3. I enabled split tunneling and created exceptions so that apps like my bank app and music app didn't go through the VPN.
    4. I enabled kill switch, and found out that split tunneling didn't work.
    5. In order to use my bank app, my music app, or others, I HAD to turn off kill switch. I very very…

  18. 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.

  20. 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.
