1. 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.

2. 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:

   Australia (Melbourne, Sydney)
   
   South America (e.g. São Paulo)
   
   SE Asia (e.g. Singapore)
   
   North America West Coast
   

   These resolvers could be:

   Accessible only from Proton VPN IP ranges (to maintain privacy)
   
   Operated under Proton’s strict no-logs policy
   
   Geo-routed from VPN exit nodes to minimize DNS latency
   

   This would significantly improve real-world performance for Proton VPN users, particularly for those accessing services like Proton Mail, where even 150–200ms of DNS delay adds up.

   Thanks for considering this — the service is fantastic, and this would make it even better globally.

3. 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.

4. [Mobile] Network Specific WL/BL Activation

   I would love the ability to be able to have a setting that allows me to whitelist or blacklist specific networks to automatically activate and deactivate VPN connection.

   For instance, if I come home my mobile device doesn't need to use the VPN anymore and it would be whitelisted. Once my phone connects to <home> network VPN deactivates and you get a popup welcome home VPN disconnected or something.

   When I go into work or an area that I don't necessarily trust such as a Starbucks or Public Wifi I would like it to automatically connect to the VPN and give me a similar popup.

   I was thinking I connect to the same network every time I go to office or coffee shop or library etc so if I could see saved networks and toggle trusted/untrusted so the app will detect and connect/disconnect as applicable.

7. [TV App] - Kill Switch

   Can we please have a kill switch added to the TV applications, this is asked for over and over I understand it may not be the most pressing item to add but it really is needed, many of the other apps I've tried do have this implemented and one of the points of using a VPN is to mask over our real IP, sadly I've had the TV app disconnect numourus times leading to my real IP being exposed, this happened just yesterday twice and I couldn't understand or find out the issue so a kill switch would ultimately solve any issue of disconnection without any notice.

   Thank you.

8. Split Tunneling and Kill Switch

   ProtonVPN Topic "How to use advanced kill switch" states that "On most platforms, kill switch (Advanced or Standard) is not compatible with split tunneling. If you have split tunneling turned on, you’ll need to turn it off to use a kill switch". I don't know what ProtonVPN means by most VPN's, but I have been able to activate Split Tunneling simultaneously with Kill Switch on numerous VPN's on my iMac, ie: PIA VPN, SurfsharkVPN, NordVPN, and ExpressVPN. Hopefully ProtonVPN will correct this problem for Mac as it's available for Windows. It's very unsafe to not have a Kill Switch and Advance Kill Switch activated, thus preventing to use Split Tunneling securely using ProtonVPN.

9. Perpetual NetShield Statistics

   I think being able to see the total amount of ads blocked and data saved perpetually would be pretty cool. I'm especially referring to the android VPN app as the statistics reset every time the VPN is turned off or changed.

10. Ability to Blacklist VPN Servers

    The auto-connect profiles often connect me to servers that are nearly unusable (super low speed, high latency, inconsistent and poor quality of connection), so I often end up having to manually reconnect to a different server.

    I would like the ability to blacklist/block certain VPN servers and regions, so that the client does not include it in the auto-connection algorithm.

12. 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.

13. 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.

    -Thanks

14. Automatic MTU negotation

    For protonvpn with wireguard, I need to manually adjust the MTU down due to using a 5g hotspot wifi solution. It would be really nice if the app could automatically negotiate the optimal MTU when setting up, I imagine by just pinging the VPN bastion server with different packet sizes (once authenticated) and adjusting from there.

    Otherwise it would be nice if the app would at least allow you to override the MTU for different underlying networks.

    A way to backup our URLs and IPs to Proton Drive. I recently had to uninstall/reinstall and then had to manually readd my entire list. Would be nice to have a way to backup the list, especially to Proton Drive, to have the peace of mind the data is safe.

16. Automatic login on the ProtonVPN Linux client

    Currently, the ProntonVPN Linux client requires manual login each time. This is really tedious, particularly if the password is very complex. It would be much better if it were possible to log in automatically. This, in particular, is a requirement for automatically starting the VPN client after each reboot.

18. 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.

20. Proton VPN firewall, post quantistic and other improvements

    • the possibility to link proton profiles to the account, so when I use the vpn on different devices I can find my own profiles
    • the possibility to change the server with a dedicated button which will follow the current VPN settings (same type, protocol, country, and so on) just using a different server
    • the integration (for mobile Android) of a firewall which can block internet connection for selected apps from user. This would be really really useful to block internet connection to app that doesn't need it (clock, calculator, file manager, and so on). In the market place there are some solutions (like NetGuard) but they are obviously incompatible with a VPN since they use the same approach of a VPN. Using constantly Proton VPN all apps have to use internet through the VPN so an integrated firewall would be extremely powerful.
