Add ability to exclude country's servers for quick connect
When I use the Quick Connect feature it always connects to servers in my country (Russia), but in my case, it is useless because I use a VPN to access servers that are blocked in my country. And because of this, the Quick Connect feature becomes totally useless. Could you add an option in preference to exclude servers that are located in the configured countries from quick connect servers?

When will you make Wireguard VPN available?
When would you please make Wireguard available?
There are many providers out there already supporting it - at least 10 reputable ones.
Wireguard is faster than Openvpn and despite being a relatively new protocol I would appreciate it if you allow connections on beta servers.I'm using OpenVpn transparently via dedicated router and gaining speed without paying for extra hardware can only be a reasonable ask and a step forward.
I am a paying customer and I think it will be wasteful to pocket an additional subscription in order to use Wireguard with other providers as I am already with…

ProtonVPN: better support for arm linux (Raspberry Pi, PinePhone, etc)
ProtonVPN gui and cli can be installed on various operating systems running on different arm devices. It seems that Debian-based OSes like Raspberry Pi OS and Mobian cannot properly use either tool. The connection fails and ultimately you are unable to access the internet. In order to correct this you need to run:
sudo nmcli connection delete pvpn-ipv6leak-protection
as suggested here: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1319033/internet-stops-working-after-installing-protonvpn.
It would be nice to see more devices/oses supported. Until then when the connection fails at least it should clear any connection leftovers automatically.

Dedicated IP Address tied to Secure Core
I would really love to have the ability to purchase a dedicated IP Address within ProtonVPN. This would eliminate blocking by some financial institutions and steaming services who block known multi-user ip addresses.
If the possibility exist to link the dedicated ip address (in the United States) to the secure core function would be outstanding.
A reasonable monthly charge (in addition to the regular monthly subscription fee) would be well worth the additional feature.

Folder selection for Split Tunneling
Easily exclude all sub-executables of a service by selecting a whole folder instead of having to manually select every file by hand.
As an example, Steam needs much more than just the main executable and the game's executable to work properly with Split Tunneling.

Add split-tunneling to Profiles
Add split-tunneling as a customizable option for a Profile. This way if someone frequently uses split-tunneling for various applications, they do not have to go into the settings menu and make the app selections every time.

Allow adding multiple users to an VPN account
Please make an option to add other users on the same network for the VPN service.
My family wants to use VPN at home but I don't want give each person my username and password to log into the ProtonVPN software. I'd rather have a simple family option where you can assign permission to an extra person or two to the same account, at least per network.
Hell, I'd even pay a teensy bit extra too for that feature as I think it's a perfectly reasonable request.

Low carbon switch
Similar to the Secure Core switch, a Low carbon switch that would allow to filter VPN servers to restrict the selection to countries where power generation is less carbon-intensive. The list of countries could be either derived of yearly averaged, or refreshed real-time based on e.g. electricitymap data.

Latency display
When you click on a country, the list of servers for that country appears. The only thing missing is the latency you are getting from that server. For example, I click Estonia, I see all the Estonian servers. Right next to each Estonian server, there would be a number telling you what ping you're getting, like 150ms. I think this feature would be a useful one to add because choosing a faster connection would be easier if you could see the latency. Also, with this ping, for the box that shows your internet speed over a time period of 60…

Porn/adult sites blocker for NetShield
Warp (CloudFlare) has a feature for their equivalent of NetShield that also blocks porn/adult sites from the DNS, in addition to options for malware and ads. Consider adding this for a family-friendly setting?

ProtonVPN: wider availability of split tunneling
Surprisingly, ProtonVPN has been probably my favorite Proton Technologies product since joining the service, initially for email. Split tunneling is great because some websites don't like it when you try to access them with a VPN. I wish it was available on other platforms besides PC, though. Mac and iOS at the very least would be very helpful for me.

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?)6 votes -
Support connecting over http/socks5/Tor bridges
Although ProtonVPN may not directly provide bridges, it would be convenient for users living in places with strong internet censorship to have ProtonVPN over their censorship circumvention proxies, which might not be secure. Routing traffic through those insecure proxies to ProtonVPN will provide their accessibility to the outside internet securely.
Usually, Shadowsocks/V2Ray/Clash, the famous censorship circumvention tools, provide http/socks5 proxies locally. ProtonVPN could connect to the Internet over them.

Show current connected profile label in the GUI
When connected to a profile, the Windows GUI shows:
Country >> Server
IP Load
Protocol SpeedsIt would be nice to see current profile name there as well. And also the profile may be highlighted in the list to indicate that it is currently connected. Without this feature it is hard to tell at a glance which profile is being used at the moment. So the user either has to memorize all the servers, or always reconnect to the needed profile to ensure it is being used.
