1. [TV App] - Kill Switch

   Can we please have a kill switch added to the TV applications, this is asked for over and over I understand it may not be the most pressing item to add but it really is needed, many of the other apps I've tried do have this implemented and one of the points of using a VPN is to mask over our real IP, sadly I've had the TV app disconnect numourus times leading to my real IP being exposed, this happened just yesterday twice and I couldn't understand or find out the issue so a kill switch would ultimately solve any issue of disconnection without any notice.

   Thank you.

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

   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. Android TV Updater

   Please look to include a built in updater, it’s madness that one has to go to the google play store to update it especially when wanting to de google.

4. Auto switch server in the same country when current server usage is too high

   Sometimes, when i'm connected to the VPN, the server i'm currently connected on gets a high load and my connection starts to slow down.
   So it would be nice to have an optional setting that could automatically switch to server with less load in the same country you were connected in in order to make the connection fast again.
   Also maybe make users be able to choose what load percentage they consider as high load, and also be able to control this setting for different profiles.

5. Show Hosting Provider Info in Server List

   Please add hosting provider info directly in the ProtonVPN app, displayed alongside the server name (e.g. PL#81 – DataCamp).

   Or even better, add categories for hosting providers, just like cities currently are, so users can quickly find all servers from a specific provider that work best with their ISP.

   For example, my ISP performance varies by provider:
   
   - Excellent with Datacamp Limited (DataPacket)
   - Decent with PV-SL-HOSTED-Warsaw-Network
   - Terrible with M247

   Currently, I have to connect to multiple servers and check my IP info to find a provider that works well, which wastes several minutes and is very annoying.

   Mullvad shows hosting provider info, but only on their website, which isn’t ideal.

   ProtonVPN should make this visible directly in-app.

   This feature would save time, improve usability, and make server selection much clearer.

6. Linux app for arm64 GUI and CLI

   Hello, like many users, I use a low-power ARM64 machine for P2P downloads via Torrent. The problem is that there isn't a Linux ARM64 application yet, which prevents me from setting up the Port Forwarding as explained in the guides, since I have to use it through WireGuard instead of the official app.Is this release planned? Thanks.

7. Proton VPN’s kill-switch isn’t Direct-Boot aware on GrapheneOS

   On GrapheneOS, the updater runs before first unlock (BFU) to grab security patches, but Proton VPN’s kill-switch isn’t Direct-Boot aware. Enabling it brings up the VPN UI BFU, yet no network ever connects, so updates fail until you unlock the device.

   Repro:

   Install Proton VPN on GrapheneOS (e.g. Pixel 6 Pro 2025.05.15)

   Turn on kill-switch

   Reboot and stay at lock screen

   Watch the BFU updater time out for lack of network

   Impact:
   Devices miss critical patches until next unlock, extending exposure to exploits.

   Fix:
   • Mark the VPN service as android:directBootAware="true" in AndroidManifest.xml
   • Move its config/certs into Device-Protected Storage for BFU access

11. IP & Domain Filter / Denylist

    I would like to have the option to block some IPs or domains like X.com to prevent me from using them.
    Simple feature to NetBlock or separate.
    Exactly like Denylist in NextDNS.
    I can't set custom DNS when NetShield is enabled.

13. Ability to Blacklist VPN Servers

    The auto-connect profiles often connect me to servers that are nearly unusable (super low speed, high latency, inconsistent and poor quality of connection), so I often end up having to manually reconnect to a different server.

    I would like the ability to blacklist/block certain VPN servers and regions, so that the client does not include it in the auto-connection algorithm.

14. 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 this since the Proton VPN Linux pieces use Open Source licenses. A community-supported Fedora Proton packaging SIG already exists.

    Implementing this is both a matter of technical expertise but also being able to navigate and collaborate with other communities. Proton engineers would submit package updates directly to Linux build systems and benefit from being stakeholders in the distribution end of software production. This also gets Proton engineers closer to user feedback and bug reports.

    (Not to be biased, but I get copied on bug reports for Proton VPN bugs in Fedora and I am not always sure how to best route that feedback from distro users back to upstream developers.)

    One idea for the Proton-hosted repos is that they could still be provided, but for beta or experimental users. This way, Proton still maintains a mechanism for shipping updates extremely fast to end users without distro build systems and update policies, but the users who participate with those repos could be closer to the in-development versions, while users subscribed to updates on their favorite distros would receive them normally through stable update repos.

15. Chrome Proton VPN Extension: Randomized server for subscribed account

    This is so weird. I have a family plan.

    For free accounts using the Proton VPN browser extension, it just connects to whatever server is available, but for accounts that are paid, there doesn't seem to be a way to have that functionality.

    I would like to be logged in to the Chrome Proton VPN browser extension, but I would like it to be randomized each time I launch Chrome, just to make it so I don't have the same IP address every time.

    This would be super helpful, and I can't imagine that it would be difficult to implement, since it is basically taking the functionality that works for people who aren't paying and making it also available to people who are paying.

16. Request for an "App-Specific Block Log" feature

    Suddenly, my smartphone's temperature rose to 43°C, and ProtonVPN's battery usage reached 38%. Upon checking, I found that while connected to the fastest server, NetShield had blocked 200 trackers in just 30 minutes.
    After switching to SecureCore, the number of trackers was cut in half, and the temperature dropped to 24°C.
    ProtonVPN used the most power, while Brave Nightly used the most data. This doesn’t tell us who the culprit is.
    Just as I turned NetShield off, a "ClearNote consent pop-up" appeared. Although the Google Play Store stated that no data would be shared with third parties and that no data would be collected, it suddenly asked me to consent to the use of my data.
    There were too many detailed terms and conditions, and there wasn’t a simple “Disagree” button. I couldn’t go back or close the app, so I had to turn off the power to resolve the issue.
    I enabled NetShield in SecureCore and began migrating and deleting ClearNote data. Then I uninstalled it. During this process, which took about an hour, it blocked 900 trackers. After uninstallation, the number of blocked trackers dropped to about 50 per hour.
    I would like to keep NETShield enabled at all times, but in situations like this one—where “you can’t identify the culprit unless you turn it off”—the security risk is too high, so it should generally remain enabled. That’s why I’d like it to display a list of blocked trackers, just like Brave does.

17. Low Profile VPN Servers/IPs

    Almost all Proton IPs are polluted with bad reputation due to various malicious acts made through its VPN. This is really really annoying for good users.

    I think a large percentage of malicious acts made on Proton VPN servers are done via new accounts that are pretty quickly banned by Proton and by victims- but it still leaves a bad trace on the history of that ip.

    I propose a solution that could at least reduce ip pollution for quite a few users- what if we had few servers (or ips) that you only get access to after a year of subscription- by then if you were to act bad you’ll already be banned.

    it is not the best solution but at least its something
