Split tunneling, select which app connects through which country
It would be great if Proton VPN split tunneling worked so that I can select which app's traffic is routed through whic country. For example, I'd like to select that Youtube goes through Moldova, Firefox through Netherlands, banking app through Germany etc. This could maybe be built into profiles as well so I can quickly set up even different split tunneling scenarios.

Split-Tunneling
Someone please explain why ProtonVPN cannot have the Kill-Switch and Split-Tunneling both activated at the same time. There are lots of times I have to disconnect ProtonVPN to access some Internet sites. Not having a Kill-Switch and disconnecting the VPN defeats the purpose of a VPN; a Kill-Switch is a must. Other VPN allow both the Kill-Switch and Split-Tunneling to be activated at the same time; why can't ProtonVPN do the same. Hopefully a Proton Team Member will explain.

Keep Windows 7 support, please don't force us onto Windows 10/11
Hi everyone,
I was shocked to see Proton VPN drop Windows 7 support yesterday, 07/07/2026. Please provide a legacy client or a 12-month transition period for Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit users.
Forcing upgrades to Windows 10/11 contradicts Proton’s privacy mission. Features like default 'typing personalisation' (keystroke monitoring) and Windows 11’s 'Recall' (automated screenshots) severely compromise privacy.
I use Windows 7 for technical autonomy. Switching to Linux isn't viable as I rely on expensive, proprietary engineering software.
We choose Proton to protect our data. Please don't force us into privacy-invasive OS environments. We need a working Windows 7 solution.

Less blocked IPs
I understand that websites, and internet traffic companies (like Cloudflare) attempt to discover IP addresses from VPN, and block that traffic.
I typically have my VPN on all the time, and this presents a problem, as more and more often, I'm blocked from certain websites due to using a VPN. And that list of sites I'm blocked from is growing as they continue to discover which IPs belong to VPN providers.
I get that this is a game of wack-a-mole, but if the VPN usage becomes prohibitive to use some everyday sites and services, it just makes me turn off…3 votes -

Hide VPN usage far too complicated and uneffective
I wanna be unblocked every time I'm using my VPN, but it seems to me that even if I follow the dedicated guide, it's almost impossible to hide my VPN, so I'm unable to see what I want where I could if they cannot see my Proton VPN.
I wish it were a service too effective and far simpler than it is ATM.3 votes -
Add setting "allow LAN connected" for linux
Please add the setting to "allow LAN connections" for Linux while connected to vpn. Turning the vpn off to use the printer is no fun.

Port C/C++ code to Rust
Mullvad VPN moved from Wireguard-go to GotaTun for improved Wireguard performance and security. Please consider doing the same for Proton. After all, Mullvad has already done most of the work.
In a rapidly-changing security landscape (e.g. Claude Mythos), memory-safe code is more crucial than ever – especially for something as important and system-wide as a VPN.

Add rpm-ostree to extend support to Fedora-based immutable distributions
UBlueOS as well as the increasingly popular gaming-focused Bazzite flavor hereof are build around the concept of an immutable kernel. This means nothing can write to kernel-space, and even with superuser privileges, you cannot do this. Updates are done by retrieving full & tested images, you can always roll back to the previous image, and the system doesn't really complain if it runs out of storage. I believe that some of these features are in line with Protons mission for helping users achieve security and privacy. Achieving support for the immutable Fedora-based distributions would mean extending support for the rpm-ostree…

CLI should be standalone
CLI should be installable as a standalone feature with all features included.
Recently the installation instructions mashed the CLI and the GUI into one. This causes problems as the installation is now much more dependent on the choice of KDE, GNOME etc.
Really on linux, it makes the most sense to me, to build a solid CLI tool first, and then build a nice GUI for the functions that were allready build in the CLI tool. This also ensures that all of the users can apply their own scripts around the behavior of ProtonVPN, solving some of the feature-requests before…

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…

Allow User-Selectable Exit Nodes with Secure Core
When creating a VPN configuration file using Secure Core, I would like the option to choose a specific secondary (exit) location within the region I intend to use. Currently, all western U.S. Secure Core configurations default to Los Angeles, which limits flexibility.
Instead, I want the ability to select a specific state or city for the exit node, in addition to the Secure Core entry location. This would allow for more accurate geographic representation and better performance. Not all users are based in Los Angeles, and routing all traffic through that single location is both restrictive and inefficient.
This limitation…

More obvious status indication on the windows taskbar
The status on the current icon on the windows taskbar is so tiny I can barely see it.
When you hover over it, it does not say if the VPN is connected or not.
I would like a larger visual indication and also the status when you hover.5 votes -
Enhance anti-censorship capabilities and update IP addresses promptly to ensure usability in regions with strict censorship.
Currently, Proton VPN is almost unusable in regions with strict censorship, and it is hoped that measures can be taken to alleviate this problem.

Apple TV App: Choose server within country - Sync profils:fav - Block ads & trackers
I like the Apple TV app but there are some important missing features: Some servers within a country works better for streaming. Currently we can only select the country but not choosing a specific server within a country. For certain service providers, it's simply a must. If not it would help to get my profils synced from our iOS app. That would be a great workaround. And finally, a good adblocker & trackers using Proton DNS would be great to save us some times while we are watching replays or content on services we paid for that have ads to…

ProtonVPN + Tailscale compatability
Hi Proton team,
I really appreciate how fast Proton iterates. One recurring pain point for privacy-conscious self-hosters is VPN + Tailscale coexistence.
When Proton VPN is active (especially with kill switch), Tailscale stops working properly. This forces users to constantly disable one or the other, which defeats part of the purpose of running self-hosted services privately.
Would it be possible to improve split tunneling / "Allow LAN access" so that it reliably works with Tailscale (and similar tools like Netbird or Headscale)? Even a dedicated "Overlay network mode" or better documentation would help a lot of power users.
Thanks for…4 votes -
Make it possible to randomize for fastest connection within custom parameters
For instance, I want it to pick the fastest server anywhere in the eastern time zone using stealth with p2p optimization and onion routing. And maybe allow a corresponding custom server list at the top of the ‘countries’ list, or similar.

Allow profiles to select a city on macOS/iOS
This is already available with Windows and Android, please bring this existing feature to macOS and iOS.
It's especially useful for users in bilingual countries, where only being able to select a country at the profile/quick connect level often lands you on a server in a city that speaks a different language (and thus causes websites to default to the wrong language).
Selecting by city is a tedious manual step on these platforms, and is annoying to have to do by hand every time.
