  1. Support Wireguard VPN Protocol

    Various other VPN providers are now supporting Wireguard. Would you consider this? (It's 10 times faster than OpenVPN on the same CPU.)

  3. Sort by Server Load

    It would be great if you could select a country in the Proton VPN app and then sort by server load. That would save having to scroll through a huge list to find the servers with the lowest current load.

  5. Apple TV app

    Buried in Apple's tvOS 17 announcement is support for 3rd party VPN apps on tvOS. It would be amazing if Proton VPN had a tvOS app.

  7. Port Forwarding support for Linux

    Port Forwarding is available on Windows (https://protonvpn.com/support/port-forwarding/) but there's no ETA about its availability in Linux.

  11. Android Widget

    A widget for Proton VPN on Android would be nice. The ability to turn on/off the last connection profile would be the main purpose of the widget. So if you selected Fastest, it would search for the fastest server again. But if you selected a country it would only pick from that country again. And if you picked a specific server, it would try to use that server again. Same idea for Secure Core, P2P, and Tor.

  12. Sort the list of countries by proximity

    This would be really useful for those of us who download via Torrent, every time I want to download via Torrent I have to manually search for the country closest to my country to get the fastest download speed. Which makes me have to scroll down quite a lot, when you do it so many times it ends up being very tiring and that's why I would like the country closest to mine to be at the top of the list.

  14. Automatic VPN kill switch to interupt up/download when VPN is disconnected.

    When your VPN disconnects, it should also interupt the Internet connection so that active downloads or uploads are interrupted. Currently when the VPN is disrupted... my computer continues run with my information in the open without encryption. This is a serious breach of security.

  15. Bypassing VPN Blockers Option

    Some websites, streaming or others have very aggressive VPN blocking methods. "" https://denpasoft.com/checkout/ "" is one of them. I have tried all available protocols and methods to bypass their detection but nothing worked out. Kindly provide features in your service to bypass their VPN detection.

  17. Windows ARM64 app

    Create a version of ProtonVPN that supports and is optimized for ARM64 based systems, that for example run on Qualcomm's Snapdragon X chips. As of right now, the ProtonVPN app cannot connect to any servers in the ProtonVPN app, this suggests that the drivers for the "connection card" in these systems are different and need to be specifically utilized to work.

  18. ProtonVPN - Plus Country config

    Country config only give access to the basic servers even for Plus subscribers. This limits the number of IPs which are randomly cycled through by a Plus user and takes away a lot of incentive to upgrade.
    It would be useful to have Plus specific country config files.

  19. Allow ProtonVPN to use existing LAN DNS/Custom DNS

    I run my own secure DNS. I would like for ProtonVPN to offer the ability for the user to elect to use an existing DNS / Custom DNS rather than the Proton DNS server. Private Internet Access, which I no longer use since changing to ProtonVPN, began offering that recently and it works well. There may be a security risk doing that but the user should be able to specify if they still want to do it. I would use my own DNS when on my LAN, and the Proton DNS when on a different network. Thank you.
