  1. More Tor servers

    There are only a handful of Tor servers across all countries, and they're close to capacity most of the time. Meanwhile, there are other servers that hover around the low double digits. Any chance of shifting some of that capacity to Tor?

  2. 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…

  3. 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.

  4. 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. 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…

  6. Extend NetShield content blocking options

    I wish NetShield had more fine-tuned content blocking options beyond malware and ads/trackers. Mullvad can also block the following:
    - Gambling
    - Adult content
    - Social media

    Please add these options to NetShield so I don't have to trust a third party custom DNS (and risk being fingerprinted for it). Proton might treat this as low priority, but it's important to me. This and DAITA are some of Mullvad's distinctive features, so I'd appreciate if Proton had them too.

  7. 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.

  8. 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.

  9. 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.

  10. Free Austria VPN Server for Forumula 1

    I love to watch formula one and it would be great if one austria server would become free. However, it would be understandable if it is not implemented.

  11. add URIs to the protonvpn:// scheme

    currently the scheme protonvpn:// exists, but it only opens the app.
    it would be really useful if you could do actions with it like connecting or disconencting or connecting to a specific profile, or connect to a specific server with specific settings

  12. 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.

  13. Split-Tunneling Fill Switch and Advance Kill Switch

    Proton Unlimited has the best features compaired to other services, but needs to fix critical features with ProtonVPN:
    ProtonVPN has a Regular Kill Switch, but for optimal security it needs to have an Advance Kill Switch (An advanced VPN kill switch is a security feature that prevents your device from connecting to the internet unless it is actively connected to a VPN server. Unlike basic kill switches that only activate when the VPN disconnects unexpectedly, the advanced version blocks all internet traffic even if the VPN app is closed, restarted, or during system boot-up and shutdown). ProtonVPN Split-Tunneling automatically blocks…

  14. Don't require login credentials for the Proton VPN browser extension

    Why does the Proton VPN browser extension require you to log into your proton account? The mullvad browser extension doesn't require this. It somehow talks to the mullvad VPN app and it just works. Could you please change this for the proton vpn browser extension?

  15. Update the Proton VPN GTK

    The proton vpn app for android/iOS looks great. Why not bring the same design to Linux? I don't know about the desktop app for macOS/windows but, frankly, it looks terrible on Linux. Please redesign the Proton VPN GTK app. Thank you very much.

  16. Mac OS VPN App Sort Servers By Load

    This is specifically for the Mac OS version of the app. For countries that have multiple states with multiple server, it would be great to have an option to sort the server for the entire country by load, rather than having to go into each state. This is how the iOS app works and it is much more convenient than having to manually check through everything.

  17. More serios anti abuse mesurments

    Hello

    the suggestion is just 1, the one in the title.

    i keep finding out that i go to random website, and no, i am not talking about pron or dark web or whatever else exist, but simple random websites, shopping, pc stuff, ai stuff, so on, and everywhere the IP is blocked???

  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.

  19. We’re still using Windows 7 (or Windows 10) – so what?

    We’re still using Windows 7 – so what? It’s none of your business; let us use the VPN version we’ve paid for.
    What’s the problem? All you need to do is let us use the latest compatible version we’ve paid for. Especially as I’ve read that you’re also going to ban Windows 10 users soon. Microsoft is using underhand tactics and you’re just going along with it? What’s got into you?

  20. Update TV app interface & add more features

    I've been using Proton for years and one of the things that still bugs me, although certain things have been added we're still lacking a kill switch and many more modern settings with a modern interface that alignes with the rest of the VPN apps. Will this be addressed at all? I know it's something myself and others have asked for a lot over the years and I know whilst TV apps may not be the top priority it's something many of us need nowadays, I've had it a few times where my IP has been exposed as the app…
