Proton VPN "timed pause or disconnect"
There are times when I need to disconnect from the VPN for a short time. Unfortunately, I frequently forget to reconnect and realize I had been operating without a VPN for quite a time.
Other VPNs have a timed pause or disconnect of VPN services feature. That is, you can disconnect for a specified period (e.g. 5 minutes, half hour, etc.) and then the VPN will automatically reconnect without you having to remember to do so. I found this feature quite useful and is one of the main functional features I find missing in Proton VPN.

A timed pause or disconnect feature would be a great addition to Proton VPN. There are times when temporarily turning off the VPN is necessary, and having it reconnect automatically would be convenient for my https://ishooter.pro/ project

By the way, I recently came across the site https://drivezonlineapk.com/how-to-sign-in-dzo/ while browsing for some gaming-related content—worth checking out!

Agreed. I had NordVPN and used it a lot on iOS and macOS but I'm switching to ProtonVPN (paid). Nord had an option to quickly pause for 5 minutes, 30 minutes, or an hour, which was great for a quick option to stop it. I did build out shortcuts as a work around for now, but it didn't always work or caused issues because it forced the screen to pop up on one option. A quick pause option would be great in addition with the split tunneling option announced for iOS coming soon.
