Browse for additional applications in Split Tunneling on Proton VPN Linux
Much like in the Proton VPN application for Windows - where you can browse for a specific .exe - it would be great to be able to browse for additional applications in the Split Tunneling menu on Proton VPN for Linux as well, since not all installed applications - e.g. all applications without GUI - are listed and cannot at the moment be included/excluded in the list of apps for Split Tunneling.
This small change would make this feature so much more flexible!4 votes -
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…

Option to choose available servers in free version
Sometimes it can be annoying that I can't choose a stable needed server for me on free version of the VPN, that's why some servers sometimes get overloaded with users and it's really hard to find a different server that isnt as much loaded. Please add this to the VPN!

PC Performance
I would appreciate if the Windows VPN Client could get a "minimalist" or "performance" mode with reduced footprint on system resources. Even on a modern high end PC and especially when using other Proton apps at the same time, multitasking and working, it adds up.
Maybe we could get a setting for a minimal UI without all the fancy elements and animations? Even closed to the sys tray and being in the background, the VPN uses over 400MB RAM + dedicated GPU VRAM while constantly drawing GPU utilization causing unnecessary interrupts. It's undesireable when using the VPN while doing other…5 votes -

MacOS App: window with servers list
The interface has changed slightly since the last update. The window with server list is too small, and it can't be resized. This is inconvenient. Please add the option to resize it.

Port forwarding for dedicated game servers
Ability to keep Ports open along with the ability if using wireguard on a router or vpn router ability to tell protonvpn too open ports range or single port forwarding and keep the ports open for dedicated game servers that way you can host game servers without worrying about exposing main ip or dns

Cidr Notation for split tunneling
I currently have multiple subnets, and adding every single host I'd need a split tunnel is impractical. By allowing CIDR notation on the configs, we could allow 10.0.3.0/24 and have a whole slice of the network bypass the VPN.
As a plus, adding a per-network switch possibility would avoid my 10.0.1.1 (for instance) to be allowed without a VPN on public WiFi, for instance (which ties nicely to the "trusted networks" feature request)

Dedicated IP for personal plans
It is an option for business users and would be a nice add for home users. My wife is sick of all the capchas and blocked sites from the VPN. I have been using Proton mail since 2019 and the unlimited since last year. Had to switch back to mail only until you add the dedicated ip to home users at a reasonable cost.
Thank you for the consideration.

Add Wireguard PSKs
It'd be nice upon config generator if a PSK was generated for stronger cryptography when using Wireguard.

Make Proton VPN app and CLI work with bridged or teamed network cards
Bridged or teamed network cards are not an unusual or exotic configuration; you use them if you have more than one NIC in your PC and want to use them efficiently, and some virtual machine software (such as Fedora libvirt) require that VM guests use bridged network connections on the host if you want those VM guests to act as independent entities on the local network.
The current Proton VPN app and CLI fail to connect and actually bring down the PC's network on Linux Fedora (44) if that PC has a network bridge.
The current workaround is to download…2 votes -
More Netshield statistics
At the moment, you can see in Netshield how many adverts have been blocked and how many trackers have been stopped.
It would also be great if you could see exactly which ones and on which page or in which app they were.
The display keeps resetting. I’m fine with that in principle, but an overview of these statistics would be very interesting for tech enthusiasts. ;-)

Align Proton VPN versions on Google Play and F-Droid
Currently, Google Play offers the user version 5.11.94.0 (2025-06-06) for installation. At the same time, F-Droid offers version 5.11.39.1 (2025-06-11). I propose to align the versions available in these app stores.

Protecting Your Digital Identity
(1) Stop INTENTIONALLY BROADCASTING your customers digital identity to SCREENGRABBERS on the Proton VPN splashscreen under the false gaslighting heading "Protecting Your Digital Identity", which you do every single time we change our IP addresses! (2) And find the GOVERNMENT MOLE(s) in Proton who got this EXTREME and OBVIOUS privacy violation designed and implemented in the first place!
Edit: How has fixing this critical vulnerability not gotten anymore votes by now? If someone doesn't understand what vulnerability I'm talking about, then feel free to ask me. I'll be happy to explain it further.

Add a "Change Server" Option Before Connection on Windows
In the free plan, Proton VPN provides access to servers in 10 countries and automatically connects to the fastest available server.
On Android, while the app is attempting to connect, a "Change Server" option appears every few seconds, allowing users to switch to another server before a connection is established. This is very useful when the selected server is unreachable or blocked.
However, on the Windows version, the "Change Server" option only becomes available after a successful connection. If the selected server cannot be reached, users may get stuck trying to connect and have no way to switch servers.
Please…

Custom DNS on Windows
The Android version currently allows you to set custom DNS servers on a profile-by-profile basis. Windows has a single "custom DNS servers" setting that applies to ALL profiles.

VPN Status on Android Control Panel
Instead of having the status of the connected VPN shown through notifications only. Can we also have the option to expand the quick connect button in the control panel of Android to show the status.
I don't need to have it keep showing in my notifications but would like to be able to check once in awhile by swiping down to my control panel.
