Latency
You mention gaming as a usecase but don't display latency for servers.
I've used/am using Proton VPN but since I couldn't know latency without manually testing every server and then logging into the game , I had to get exitlag just for gaming. Please implement at latency information and if possible implement something similar to exitlag so I don't have to have multiple subscriptions.3 votes -
Auto shutdown when phone put in airplane mode
I would love for the VPN to automatically stop trying to connect when I place my phone in airplane mode and also have it auto connect when I take my phone out of airplane mode.
While in airplane mode (with no WiFi services, such as on a flight) the application keeps attempting to connect to a server. This significantly drains my battery, unless I remember to manually disconnect it after toggling airplane mode on.

Feature request: Add forwarded port API method
Problem: There is no officially support method for a torrent client to obtain the currently active forwarded port from Proton VPN.
Current practices: The only way I've found to determine the port is to scrape the VPN client log. This is not officially supported and thus brittle, not to mention inefficient.
Proposed solution: Add a lightweight REST listener in the client to respond to API requests. Including forwarded port status, so that a local client can determine if the VPN is currently active, if port forwarding is enabled, and what the current port is. A unified cross-platform client API would…

Never Auto Connect to a VPN in My Location
Inside Kill Switch, I want a check for never auto connect to a vpn in my country.
Sometimes I connect to country X, but I have connectivity issues which causes VPN to disconnect, then it retries to connect again multiple times.
When connection is back online, it connects to a VPN in my country, which is exactly what I'm avoiding.6 votes -
Option to quickly switch to a different VPN server
About once a day, I resolve some connectivity issue by connecting to a different VPN server. Doing this is almost the only way I directly interact with ProtonVPN. The process often goes:
1. Disconnect 2. ConnectBut sometimes, Autoconnect will keep selecting the same server. The process then becomes (Android app):
1. Disconnect 2. Connect (recognize same server) 3. Tap "Countries" 4. Tap search icon 5. Type city name 6. Tap options icon next to city 7. Tap server of choiceMy suggestion: If Autoconnect would disregard servers that I intentionally disconnected from (recently), my experience would be a lot…

Backup Split Tunneling List
A way to backup our URLs and IPs to Proton Drive. I recently had to uninstall/reinstall and then had to manually readd my entire list. Would be nice to have a way to backup the list, especially to Proton Drive, to have the peace of mind the data is safe.

Autoconnect when wifi is lost, disconnect on trusted wifi,
I use a vivo Fold 3, there's no VPN option available. Only from within the proton app.
Like Surfshark, an auto connect when no WiFi would be so good. And then, auto disconnect when on trusted WiFi, would be a great addition. As my router is always connected through proton VPN, there's 2 vpn's active when I'm home. And always need to manually disconnect the VPN ... In 2025... Please add these features.7 votes -
Set Default Connection to Specific U.S. State
I only ever want to connect to servers in the state I live in. Currently in order to do so I have to manually find that state in the connections list. Connecting to the fastest server will sometimes connect me to another state, and pinning the state connection still lists it as "United States" which is not descriptive and doesn't distinguish it from other pinned U.S. connections. Linux has the option to set the default connection to specific servers or other options (bust not states). This should be available on all platforms, or at the very least allow for creating…

A system for transfering included/exluded application paths when updating versions of ProtonVPN
Right now, user's have to go though and manually recompile the list of included/excluded applications(or IP's) when using the split-tunneling feature. This is more than just inconvenient, it is a security risk, opening the door for increased chances of user error.
The implementation of this feature doesn't have to be complicated and would definitely provide a quality of life increase for the applications user's.

Automatic MTU negotation
For protonvpn with wireguard, I need to manually adjust the MTU down due to using a 5g hotspot wifi solution. It would be really nice if the app could automatically negotiate the optimal MTU when setting up, I imagine by just pinging the VPN bastion server with different packet sizes (once authenticated) and adjusting from there.
Otherwise it would be nice if the app would at least allow you to override the MTU for different underlying networks.

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.

VPN exclusion/exlude template for the surveillance/14 eyes/5 eyes countries
On Android, I can exclude selected countries to be used in a Quick connect mode (fastest server). I always wanted to exclude surveillance countries listed at https://protonvpn.com/blog/5-eyes-global-surveillance#14-eyes (more than 22 countries).
Why not to simplify the task of adding 22+ countries by creating a template "Surveillance countries" which user can tap and confirm the list of countries to be excluded (not connected to)?

ProtonVPN is not reliable enough to be "Always On"
On MacOS (and to a lesser degree iOS) there are times when ProtonVPN just stops working, often for many minutes. However, at least on the Mac (Sonoma 14.5, and don't make me use Liquid Glass), when ProtonVPN fails, it still keeps trying to turn itself back on. The result is that the Internet doesn't work at all. This is frustrating on deadline. There have been times when the only way for me to get the Internet back is by uninstalling ProtonVPN and rebooting. Obviously nobody wants that. It's especially frustrating in a time crunch.
Give me a "Emergency Off" button…

Split tunneling - Exclude one specific URL only.
Split tunneling - Exclude one specific URL only.
On my local network, I have to use a browser to access the settings for my Ethernet box. I could exclude the browser. However, I would prefer to exclude only the Ethernet box URL and be protected for other URLs.
Note: I haven't found a solution to this problem. My “Allow LAN connections” setting is enabled. It doesn't allow access to the Ethernet box, probably because of the browser session, I guess.

Re-ordering of Created VPN Profiles
I would like the ability to drag/drop and freely change the order of my created VPN profiles so that some profiles appear at the top and are more visible than others.
I have created more profiles over time and have found that I use some profiles more often than others, but unfortunately I have to remember to scroll down to get to them.
This would also be nice for organization, like grouping profiles of a similar purpose together.4 votes
