  2. Each fresh login receives a new IP address. The Windows app requires opening the VPN to view it. I would like to see it in the taskbar app.

    In the previous windows version, I could see the IP address without opening the full VPN.
    Not so with this latest version.

    When monitoring security events on websites I need to see what my IP address is to determine if it's my traffic or something else.

  3. Change the Firefox extension icon based on the split tunneling status on the current domain

    Currently, when the user has enabled split tunneling in the ProntonVPN extension for Firefox, the extension icon always remains green even on sites where the VPN is disabled. This can be confusing, especially if the user does not remember which sites they are using split tunneling on and which they are not. In my opinion, it would be much clearer if the icon showed a green padlock on sites where the VPN is active, and a red open padlock on sites where split tunneling disables the VPN.

    This request applies both to normal split tunneling and to Inverse Split Tunneling…

  4. Split Tunneling: Two Different VPN Connections Simultaneously

    If technically feasible, I would find it great if two VPN connections could be established simultaneously via split tunneling, for example one for streaming and one for everything else, or one with port-forwarding and at the same time a second one without port-forwarding.

  5. "Disconnect" Button over hover profile in profile section

    In the profile section, when connected to a particular profile, it should show the button of "Disconnect" button when hovering over that same profile again. Right now, it shows the connect button again, even if it is connected to that profile.

  6. Use Split Tunneling to Improve VPN Performance

    Split tunneling allows you to route some of your internet traffic through the VPN while letting other traffic access the internet directly. This can significantly improve performance, especially for activities like streaming or gaming, I had an assignment to research on how can we improve VPNs, so I got this idea from there. When I was working on this idea I hired a research consultancy that helped me in researching the important aspects about this topic.

  7. Change or revert the new look.

    Companies seem to always go back and forth with this constantly in these industries with making things look more compact. Usually all this does is make it take more clicks to get to something that the user needs to get to making it more inconvenient to use. Function over form please. When trying to pick a certain or specific connection now it takes three to four clicks going through menus when it used to just be a list.

  8. Linux beta client: Allow server ranges for the text options

    Currently, one can set two different text boxes in the beta Linux client: "Auto connect", which accepts country codes, a specific server (such as NL#42) or "FASTEST". And then there's "Pinned tray connections", which accepts country code or specific server, multiple entries, comma-delimited.

    While we're waiting for a better GUI, I would like to have the option of picking a specific range of servers for "Auto connect", such as: US#18-25 (for example).

    As well as for "Pinned tray connections", choosing a ranged server entry would pick the best option within that range. A typical "Pinned tray connections" would look like…

  10. Allow Killswitch to be enabled with Split Tunnel

    Currently, the app will not allow you to use the Split Tunnel feature if you have the Killswitch enabled. Having migrated from Private Internet Access, I was used to having this possibility with their client and would love to see this in Proton VPN as well.

    Having some exceptions configured to bypass the VPN should not completely block the killswitch feature and open the risk of IP leaks.

    I would be okay with the VPN app completely killing my bypassed connections as well, it wouldn't even have to be gracefully respecting those. That would just be a nice-to-have.

  11. Provide an option to manually sort (change order of) "pinned" connections

    First, regarding the WINDOWS client, thanks for the option to "pin" recently used locations/servers (connections). Much appreciated!

    REQUEST: To improve the "pin" function on the WINDOWS client (and potentially other clients), please provide an option to manually sort (change order of) "pinned" locations/servers (connections).

    Currently, on the WINDOWS client, you offer options to "unpin" and "remove" pinned connections.

    In addition to "unpin" and "remove" options, I'd like to have an option to "move" where each pinned connection appears within the list of "pinned" connections. For example, upon selecting the proposed "move" option on the WINDOWS client, I hope to be…

  12. Apple TV app improvement

    I believe it would be helpful for most Apple TV VPN users if the "Recommended" category were changed to "Favorites," allowing each user to add their favorite countries individually.

  13. 4.1.13 where is the checkmark in the icon in the tray - this should be checked before every release.

    I don't have a flicker. It's worked before. green check-mark in the tray icon is not appearing today with latest release. It should be checked (no pun intended) before every release. this is not the first time I've had this issue, I had it on at least one other release.

  14. After update, icon is not in the taskbar

    On Windows 10.

    Since I have about 20 apps that add an icon to the taskbar, I hide many of them.

    I want Proton VPN to be in the taskbar so I know if it is connected or not.

    When Proton VPN is updated, the icon disappears and I have to go back into the task bar settings to re-enable it.

    Thanks

  15. Make a Lite version of Proton apps (VPN, drive, mail, e.t.c), for people on older android devices like android 5 (or even android 4)..

    Since the majority of proton apps need a minimum of android of 8 and 9 (except for calendar), I think this would be a good idea for both sides (customers and business). People on lower/older end devices get to use proton services, which also leads to the point of more potential customers. Would really like this to happen. kind regards

  16. Add Alipay and WeChat Pay

    I hope that Chinese payment methods can be added. Alipay and WeChat can also be used in Hong Kong. If so, it will be convenient for us to purchase VPN plus. Thank you

  18. [MacOS] Change desktop app icon color to indicate connection status

    The proton VPN app icon currently shows the connection status by showing a tiny cross sign or a tick, which is hardly noticeable when you have a high-resolution monitor. Changing the icon colour will make it much better. This can even be an option for the user to select the icon they would like to see when the connection is established or disconnected.

  19. Copy forwarded port from the tray icon menu

    With the new Windows app, copying the port can get a bit annoying. Currently, the way to copy the port is by opening the app, hovering over 'Port forwarding', and clicking the copy icon. This adds a lot of unnecessary delay, like waiting for the app to open or for the flyout with the port to fade in.

    Adding a 'Copy port' entry in the tray icon menu would be a quick and easy way to quickly copy the forwarded port number.

  20. Add netshield setting to profiles in Windows app

    Allow netshield to be specified on/off in profiles as it is in the Android app. This allows ad-blocking to be turned off easily by connecting to a new profile if a web site is not being displayed properly
