  1. Show server latency

    without knowing if I'll get good latency makes people hesitant to subscribe for premium plans. Let people browse the servers and see the latency they get even if it's locked out for free users.

  2. Censorship resistance

    Mullvad VPN uses Wireguard obfuscation (UDP2TCP). IVPN on iOS uses V2RAY. Those protocols allows to reliably bypass censorship. Proton on the other hand only has Stealth, which is unreliable and often disconnects.

    Request : Add a censorship-resitant technology such as V2RAY or UPD-over-TCP.

  3. Windows ARM64 app

    Create a version of ProtonVPN that supports and is optimized for ARM64 based systems, that for example run on Qualcomm's Snapdragon X chips. As of right now, the ProtonVPN app cannot connect to any servers in the ProtonVPN app, this suggests that the drivers for the "connection card" in these systems are different and need to be specifically utilized to work.

  5. Use Quantum-Resistant Cryptogtaphic Algorithm

    OpenVPN uses TLS for encryption, Quantum Proof Algorithms including the four selected by NIST are provided by liboqs. The library is already present in repositories of many Linux Distros. liboqs is integrated in TLS, means no additional work is required for the client side. This would be very easy to implement in The VPN.

    Much better alternative would be that Proton makes it's own Algorithm. It would be a good way to add it as an optional feature in the initial stages for testing.

  6. Sort by Server Load

    It would be great if you could select a country in the Proton VPN app and then sort by server load. That would save having to scroll through a huge list to find the servers with the lowest current load.

  7. Android Widget

    A widget for Proton VPN on Android would be nice. The ability to turn on/off the last connection profile would be the main purpose of the widget. So if you selected Fastest, it would search for the fastest server again. But if you selected a country it would only pick from that country again. And if you picked a specific server, it would try to use that server again. Same idea for Secure Core, P2P, and Tor.

  8. Submit Linux package updates in official distro repos

    Proton VPN is open source and uses well-known and established components of the NetworkManager stack. Due to these two things, there is virtually nothing standing in the way of the Proton VPN team from building and submitting packages officially to Linux distributions like Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, EPEL, etc. Proton VPN is further enhanced by packaging upstream by increasing the availability of Proton VPN software packages in the global software package mirroring network (deterring censorship) and benefiting from improved transparency and openness by building packages through distribution-supported build systems, which are often reproducible.

    The policies of most distros are friendly to…

  9. Add Settings toggle to disable pop up promotional ads from Proton (e.g., Black Friday promo)

    As a paid Proton subscriber, when I open Proton VPN I am receiving a pop up modal advertising Proton promotions, such as the Black Friday 2024 deals. I can close the pop up, but it will reappear from time to time. I believe it is hostile to the user experience to not give us the option to opt out of annoying advertisements.

    Please add a Settings toggle in the application that will enable users to disable pop up promotions from Proton.

    User Acceptance Criteria:
    Given I am a paid subscriber of Proton,
    When I open the "Proton VPN" application Settings,…

  12. 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.

  13. Tailscale exit nodes

    I would love to be able to use Proton VPN as exit nodes on Tailscale.

    They recently announced support for Mullvad exit nodes, and I'm sure they would be interested in adding more options:

  14. Game Server Proximity Connection

    This feature could enhance the gaming experience for VPN users. Upon initiating a gaming session, the VPN would identify the location of the game server to which the user is connected. The VPN would then select and connect to its own server that is geographically closest, or lowest ping to the game server. This process ensures optimal latency and performance by minimizing the distance data has to travel between the VPN server and the game server, potentially providing a better gaming experience.

    Functionality:

    1.  Initial Connection: When a user starts a game, the VPN detects the connection to the game

  15. Detect when a server has high latency or slow speed and automatically change servers

    Sometimes my connection speed seems to become very slow. I often disconnect and reconnect to re-establish a decent connection speed. It would useful if profiles allowed for an option to automatically change servers when high latency or slow speed is detected.

    The option could select to reconnect to the best server in the same country or region or globally - based on a function of latency and speed.

  16. ⭐ Connect on Boot

    Hello,

    I propose adding a "Connect on Boot" feature to the Proton VPN Desktop App. Before diving into the details, let me briefly explain what "Connect on Boot" entails.

    🔺 What is "Connect on Boot"? 🔺
    ■ Connect on Boot allows the Proton VPN Desktop App to load and establish a connection before the user logs into the system at the Computer Login Screen.

    ■ This differs from Connect on Login, which only initiates the connection after the user has logged in and the Proton VPN Desktop App has loaded into the program startup queue.

    ■ Connect on Boot is…

  17. RAM Servers

    If Proton VPN run only on RAM (volatile memory) and hard disk-less servers can let nothing is stored locally, which makes Proton VPN more secure and privacy.

  18. VPN on/off widget for iOS 17

    It would be great if we could have a regular widget with on/off and pause option. It would be very practical compared to having to open the app every time you want to perform any of those actions.
