Netshield settings for Browser Plugin
I would really love to have the netshield an maybe even the killswitch settings in the VPN Plugin for Browsers. There are some reasons why I dont always have my VPN Client on but I would really love to use the VPN in my Browser all time with all the settings.

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).…

Add whitelist to Kill Switch
Allow selecting specific networks (LAN or WiFi) to be excluded from the "permanent kill switch" feature on Windows.
This would allow me to connect to my LAN without VPN while at home. But whenever I take my notebook somewhere else, it will be offline until a VPN connection is established.7 votes -
Add favorite servers option in Android app
I'd love to see an option to add favorite servers that I frequently use in the Android app. You can already do this in the desktop Linux app which is quite barebones overall compared to other platforms. But I love this feature and use it a lot.

Access Proton Mail via Proton VPN website
When logged into the Proton VPN website, it'd be nice if there was an option to access or go to that account's Proton Mail website. They share the same email address and are under the same account, but why can't I go to Proton Mail from Proton VPN? It kinda seems like a no-brainer to me.

Keyring program support on Linux
On Linux, the dbus-system allows the use of other keyring-programs, e.g. KeePassXC.
Proton-VPN only accepts Gnome-Keyring or KWallet.
As Proton-Mail Bridge already works fine with KeePassXC, it should be possible for ProtonVPN to use the same tool.

Split tunneling for folders
I would like to have the option to split tunnel folders so that I don't have to add each program individually to the split tunneling list.
For example, I want to add all my Steam games to the split tunneling list (for multiplayer games), with this option I only had to add my Steam library folder to the list.
In this split tunneling folder, there could be an option to exclude some subfolders, so that some games, for example, can still run through the VPN.

CMD W on Mac
This is not so much something that went wrong but a way to make the App work a little better on Mac. For Proton VPN when you hit CMD W, or click the red circle, it removes the icon from the Dock but it is still working in the background.
For most Mac Apps, including Proton Mail, hitting CMD W, or clicking the red circle, closes the visible App but leaves the icon in the dock. This lets you quickly open the App again.
It would be nice if Proton VPN acted the same way.1 vote -
Improving keyboard control of the Windows desktop version
While I am very happy with all the features the ProtonVPN Windows desktop version offers, one major drawback for me is that I cannot use it without a mouse.
Quickly cycling through all the buttons using the tab key does not work, or at least not in an intuitive/convenient way. Getting this to work reliably would be very useful for keyboard-oriented users. Keyboard shortcuts within the app would be extremely helpful (maybe even configurable shortcuts, like F1...F12, for directly connecting to the custom profiles).

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!7 votes -
Can you see about providing a password manager?
Would be nice to create and include a password manager since you're all about security! :)

Obfuscated servers
Create obfuscated servers and make them available for all platforms (windows to router configuration). This to enhance more privacy, as well bypass censorship to connect to/from VPNs and other restrictions. With this, VPN traffic would look like any old regular internet traffic to ISPs, government, private companies or streaming services, hence, can’t see that connection is from a VPN service. Pros of this, navigate the internet normal and have most of the regular services available on webpages to streaming libraries.

Disposable browser tabs
There is a broswer extension called SquareX, that allows us to have "Disposable" broswer tabs. This basically means that the browser tab itself runs in the cloud, which is more or less the perfect secure and private way to do anything in the Internet.
But as a free service it has pretty big limitations, most importantly related to the quality.
I think if Proton can offer a similar service with thier paid VPN plans, but with offering at least stable 1080p 60fps quality, that could elevate the entire service to another level compared to the competition.
Ofc i have only…2 votes -
block Line ads ip
Recently, in Taiwan, using the iPhone app "Line", their advertisement includes daily conversation. Their ugly truth is that "Fruit ID" in iPhone listening everything 24 hrs, recognizes keywords, gives them to Line (also other businesses like yt), then matches them, and sends the advertisement to the Line user (link with the same "Fruit ID"). Many daily work groups use the "Line app" in real life, so I using it.
I tried the "Letmebe app." The function includes blocking the "Line app" or adding IP. I want to block only advertisement IPs. I guess a VPN can design this function. Here…

USA only VPN
I would gladly pay for a USA only VPN especially if you could actually see which state you were connecting to.

AI Routing & Country Group Servers based on Load, Real Time Packet Source Stream Encryption
During computer boot up, the VPN server selected at startup, fails to respond and connect, this happens on all my family computers on our local private network. The solution is to manually select a different country or server within the VPN System. It would be nice if AI could poll the servers, and select a different server from the users group of servers for that country, if the selected server fails to connect properly using the various protocols. In a selected country. The AI system could automatic reroute to a group chosen server from user preferences. AI then offers remote…

Multi server hop
Currently using a service called portmaster that has a very interesting feature that mimicks TOR browser server hopping. Instead of offering a basic VPN service it jumps between multiple servers. Their service is called SPN. I think that is a very great idea and maybe proton VPN could implement something similiar, maybe as an advanced setting for extra privacy.

Modify Linux app settings when not logged in
I got into a headscratcher because my gnome-keyring was reset while using the advanced killswitch. After a reboot I was logged out of PVPN and couldn't disable the killswitch since the settings button of the app was disabled. Alternative idea, include this command in the setup guide for Linux so other people with a similar issue can look up the solution from their phone or something: nmcli con delete pvpn-killswitch-perm

Please re-build ProtonVPN Linux GUI app with Qt Framework
Hi! I like the ProtonVPN GUI app on Linux. It has so many good features.
But I think that the choice of GTK was a mistake. This framework is just one large piece of garbage - from both points of view - devs and user experience.
Most serious, quality and useful apps for Linux (about 90%) are uses Qt Framework.
GTK is unpopular. Every year more and more existing Linux software are rewritten with Qt Framework. It's stable and gives better look'n'feel experience.
GTK development is chaotic. The developers themselves don't know what they want. It looks like that GTK…
