  2. 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.

  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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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,…

  7. Apple TV app

    Buried in Apple's tvOS 17 announcement is support for 3rd party VPN apps on tvOS. It would be amazing if Proton VPN had a tvOS app.

  8. Favorite Servers- Mark Favorite

    We want to mark some servers as favorite...

    Scenario: If I'm connecting to Fastest Country and my favorite server is in the array, it would be my preferred connection.

    If we could mark servers as favorite, we would be able to see a list of those favorite servers with sorting, etc.

  9. Show city in UI (top right)

    I've noticed (top right of UI) that ProtonVPN displays location-based information i.e. the country, server, and IP address only, it currently does not include the current city. Adding this piece of information could significantly improve the functionality.

  11. Bypassing VPN Blockers Option

    Some websites, streaming or others have very aggressive VPN blocking methods. "" https://denpasoft.com/checkout/ "" is one of them. I have tried all available protocols and methods to bypass their detection but nothing worked out. Kindly provide features in your service to bypass their VPN detection.

  12. Split tunnelling for Android TV

    An essential feature given how much video and game (Geforce Now for example) streaming is done now a days on a device such as a Nvidia Shield. This has been supported by the Mullvad VPN client on Android TV for years.

  14. VPN default profile

    VPN default profile. I use VPN for work and created a dedicate profile for it. Unfortunately there is no way for me to select the default profile, so whenever it conennects it takes the first fastest server making me change to the profile. I would like to have the possibility to change the default profile.

  15. What is the point of VPN profiles, if you cannot save the most essential connection settings into them?

    When I use the VPN for everyday web surfing, checking emails, or streaming Netflix, I do not use features like split-tunnel, port-forwarding, or NAT moderation.
    When I use the VPN for P2P file sharing (torrent), instead, I do need to activate the three features I just mentioned.

    Therefore, at the moment I have to open the application settings and change these three manually every single time.

    What is the point of allowing users to setup connection profiles for different purposes, if you cannot save essential connection settings that are clearly an advantage for some of those purposes (that you designed…

  20. iOS 14 Home Screen Widget

    It would be great to be able to add a Widget to the home screen on iOS that includes:
    - connection status (as an easily visible background color would be great)
    - quick-connect buttons if disconnected (to profiles and/or recently connected servers)
    - a disconnect toggle (can it include a confirm notification?)
