Separate password for VPN
Please make it possible a separate password for VPN. Other family members are using VPN, don't wanna share the password used for mail/drive/calendar. I know the 2FA can make some difference, but still deeply dislike it. I have installed Wireguard apps, and used different config files, but it is very limited to one server/or one set of settings.

Reinstate IKEv2 protocol for iOS
IKEv2 is native to iOS.
I know there a security issues with the way iOS implements this protocol on iOS.
But… since often ( in my case as well) a lot of apps offer services which are actually a vpn protocol. Like an adblocker for instance.
Now… I use to be able to setup 2 vpns simultaneously. One protocol and one personal. This because IKEv2 is native to iOS.
Now I constantly have to switch!
Please use a middle ground in this case.
Reinstate the IKEv2 as a protocol option, but warn users of it’s drawbacks.
Everybody wins.
Thanks

profile manager
Hello dear Proton team.
New feature: Profile list arrangement.
In the profile manager window, we should be able to arrange the listing of the profiles in the order the user prefers,
and not the standard sorting that the app provides.
If for example the user has several profiles, (and maybe some of them in a different language) and the ones they use are further down the list,
they have to scroll down through the profiles to find the one they need, which in many cases has to change quite often during usage time.
And it should be easily done by…1 vote -
Split Tunneling - Make selected apps or IP's VPN-only
When using split tunneling you are able to select which apps or IP's you want to be routed through the VPN. Would it be possible to to also make the selected apps or IP's only work through VPN? This way if the VPN goes down these apps would blocked but you wouldn't need to kill all internet traffic. This is a feature that Private Internet Access has.

More Toronto Servers
I currently live in Canada and geographically closest servers to me are in Toronto. However, with Toronto having relatively fewer servers and with average server load throughout the day remaining around 70-80% or more, It has become quite frustrating. I'm an 'always-on VPN' user, So I keep on having to check the server load and re-connect to a server with lower load manually (even that is somewhere in 70%+ range), as there is no option to automatically switch server to lower load in IOS yet. This affects me significantly since I have 3 Gbps internet connection.
Please kindly consider adding…

Speed Limits for VPN (Split Tunneling)
When using Split Tunneling (or regular) I need Proton VPN to have speed limiter so it doesn't eat up all the bandwidth.

Custom DNS should be able to be profile-level, not only app-level
I have a custom DNS at home. I still want to use VPN and for the most part, your app allows this via the Custom DNS configuration. However, I need to manually change that whenever I leave home and use VPN elsewhere. It'd be nice if I could quickly choose between two profiles, one that is just proton-managed defaults to use outside my home. The other is one I can choose when I'm at home and want to use my own DNS (i have locally hosted services I'd like to still be able to access, my own domain blocking, etc).…

UPnP Port forwarding support
Support port forwarding using UPnP so that applications can transparently and directly request port forwardings without needing manual configuration.
Also please add UPnP support, so that applications can query their public IP address.

Enabling ProtonVPN in Android through sendbroadcast() action
Different networks have different requirements. This is why give to the user the possibility to automate connections would be a win for ProtonVPN application (android). For example at work my wifi does only allow VPN over UDP, so I have to create a special profile. I would love to automate this using https://server47.de/automation/ for example (or whatever), it works very well with wireguard ( i.e. https://android.stackexchange.com/a/250566/398905 ).

Register-free access to VPN (critical for countries like Iran)
In countries like Iran it is very complicated to use proton vpn for very strange reason : it needs registration, and because proton VPN is blocked you CAN'T register. It is very critical thing for countries that block vpn very hard. Recently proton VPN released Stealth protocol. I think it's good idea to let users connect before registering, allow 50-100MB traffic, it is enough to register.
Once again, for people in countries with strong censorship it will be life saving. Please do it, Stealth is the only protocol that works in Iran.

LAN subnet allowlist in macOS client
Add an allowlist of LAN subnets for local routing (macOS). I switched from the PC client, which allows a list of allowable private IP addresses to bypass, to the macOS client which only has the generic "Allow LAN Connections" toggle switch. The macOS client has a lot less functionality and customization: It only passes-through on the current local subnet. If you are on a more complicated local network that includes VLANs, for example if you are on the 192.168.0.x side, you cannot go to 192.168.1.x or 10.0.0.2 or 172.16.0.2, etc. It would be nice to be given the option for…

Monitoring network activity
Concern Proton VPN add-on OR a new Proton service:
My suggestion is about monitoring every network connection made by apps / process, in real time. It doesn't have to be graphically elaborated but the idea is to know who/what established a network connection from which network adaptor, + Ip if applicable, protocol, time stamp, privilege, network port TO where (ip, and other information, usually outside the lan). The purpose is to be conscious of what communication are made in background of our personal computer such as, for exemple background active connections of a closed web browser, any IOT's, any network…

Monochromatic Sytstem Tray Icon - (Windows)
I've been using Mullvad VPN and love the option to use a Monochromatic System Tray Icon. It makes the VPN appear as a native feature built into the OS instead of a clunky third-party application. With a Monochromatic System Tray Icon, users would psychologically think of Proton VPN as a natural part of their workflow.

Profiles: Select Multiple Countries
I would love if there was a way to select multiple country servers for a random pool so when I connect I know I'm connected to one of the preferred countries but a different one each time.

More profile customization with independent features (MacOS 13+)
I would love if we could create a profile with different configurable and automatic combinations allowed as well as multi-select options. So for instance say I wanted to connect to a p2p server in whatever country (don't care) I cannot currently just do that, I need to specify P2P then specify a country rather than random or fastest option (for country selection).

Country-specific config for wireguard
For OpenVPN it is possible to download a country-specific configuration file which - when used - connects to the fastest available server.
Please provide country-specific configs also for wireguard - currently I can only download a config for a specific server in a country.
Thank you!9 votes -
Static Port forwarding
Please change the dynamic port forwarding to static port forwarding why:
In my BitTorrent client I have +200 torrents, dynamic port is boring because EVERY TIME I connect to a server I have to change the port in the BitTorrent client settings and the re-announcement is really long for all my torrents.
Please add to the ProtonVPN dashboard panel or in the application, the possibility to add static port like MullvadVPN do, example for the ProtonVPN Plus plans add the possibility to add 10 random forwarded ports.
Plus static forwarded port may work if you use the manual configuration: OpenVPN…

Revert changes
VPN accelerator, LAN connections, split tunneling, and Moderate NAT, most important being able to select a country (US, Japan or Netherlands) now you have zero choice and get put in a country with no data privacy laws for example.
The marketing people really hit Proton hard over the last few years you see more and more features being eroded away from free users. I thought the paid users supported the free users in their business model? was that not the ethos of Proton VPN years ago? Everyone has the right to privacy?
The blatant limitations being imposed makes you wonder…
