  2. Auto reconnect to the same server feature after device reboot

    Actually using Proton VPN on an Android TV box where the Proton VPN features are very limited.

    I usually turn off completely (not standby) my device when not using it and when I turn it back on I always find the VPN disconnected. A feature where the VPN would automatically reconnect to the last used server would be much appreciated and make the user experience smooth. Thanks in advance.

  3. SSO (single sign on) for Unlimited Accounts

    It's unfortunate having to sign into the VPN with your username and password for the VPN - for some of my devices I'm using Windows or Android, where I don't consider the operating system secure.

    Users should have the ability to sign into Proton VPN with single sign on from a trusted device.

    For instance, I'm using Linux and GrapheneOS for relatively secure environments, but I'd still like to be able to sign into Proton VPN on Windows, for instance, without having to type in my entire email and password - Windows itself has been proven to track what you're…

  4. Android Widget & Notification UI update for Tor servers

    When you go to the 'Countries' tab on Android you can select from "All, Secure Core, P2P & Tor" options. If you select Tor, one of the options is "Fastest Country." When you connect to that, there is no indication that you're connected to a Tor server unless you either open the app or manually check your IP address.

    If you use the widget on the home screen there is nothing differentiating a regular "Fastest Country" over "Fastest Country via Tor" either in the widget or the persistent notification. In regards to the widget, both use the same lightning icon.…

  6. Improve error message when trying to connect to a VPN without NetworkManager.service

    I am using Omarchy and when I installed the proton-vpn-gtk-app package and tried connecting, it displayed the generic error message "Something went wrong | An unexpected error has occured". I had to check the logs to figure out that the reason why it was failing was that the NetworkManager.service daemon was not running, because Omarchy uses systemd-networkd. Unless there's a skill issue on my end, I would like to suggest displaying a more clear error message when that happens, so the users quickly know to switch to NetworkManager if they need to use Proton VPN.

  7. Correct Panama Servers IP Ranges Problem

    Hello Proton VPN team
    My best wishes for you.

    Recently you launched Panama Servers through of a suggestion that I send you. Now It's working wrong, because when I connect my devices in that servers, the IP address is from USA (usually from Los Angeles) instead Panama, and when I'm using my Panamanian apps automatically is detected that problem and it's impossible to use them.

    Usually the IP address range that I can see when I use Panama server is like 51.179.177.21

    Please help me with this problem to change to correct Panamanian IP Ranges, cause is so difficult to…

  8. Better support for GNOME's "Background Apps" feature

    Not every Linux desktop environment comes out with support for tray icons, the most infamous one for that being GNOME, one of the most popular desktop environments. Since GNOME 44, it focuses on a "Background apps" feature, which uses xdg-desktop-portal to find apps running in the background, with the ability to show them.

    Personally, I must say I like that feature, and would like to avoid installing extensions adding back the tray. At the same time, I'd love it if the Proton VPN was able to start minimized on login in my prefered DE, especially since it's possible for other…

  10. Fix Free Tier Country List: Linux/Config file Shows 10, GUI Apps Display Only 5

    This request addresses an inconsistency across ProtonVPN platforms regarding the number of countries available on the Free plan.

    Currently:

    Linux GUI, CLI, and manual configuration files (OpenVPN/WireGuard) correctly expose 10 free countries, matching what the backend actually provides.

    Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, and tvOS apps display only 5 countries in their GUI, even though random connecting to all 10 is possible via backend/API.

    This creates a confusing discrepancy for users and contradicts the behavior of Linux clients and manual configs.

    Proton and web pages also show mixed information (some mention 5, others implicitly reflect 10), further adding to user confusion.

  11. per app network traffic view like in Windows Task Manager

    The Task Manager in Windows shows a live per app view of network data traffic. When using Proton VPN, all network activity is aggregated and listed as data traffic from Proton VPN.

    It would be nice if you could see the per app usage in the Proton VPN app.

    When the current download or upload traffic is uncommonly high, I would usually check which app is responsible, perhaps you might want to stop the process. Currently, you have to guess what causes the traffic.

  12. Real-Time VPN Connection Security and Data Privacy Verification

    It would be useful if ProtonVPN could indicate in real time whether the VPN connection is truly active or has been disconnected.

    It is important that any data traffic generated during the connection (such as DNS queries, IP addresses, and visited websites) is genuinely not logged or is securely deleted in real time.

    It would be helpful if all of this could be verifiably confirmed in real time, so that users can be confident about their data security.

  13. VPN Network Automation

    PIA has a feature where the iOS app, and presumably its other apps, detect whether you’re connected using a cellular network or any number of known or unknown/public WiFi networks …. And you can set the app to take specific automated actions when it detects a change in network connection:
    -always maintain current VPN connection status
    -always connect to VPN
    -always disconnect from VPN
    etc.

    Used in conjunction with the kill switch, you could… set your phone to disconnect from the vpn upon detecting connection through your home network but always enable the on-device vpn client when it detects you’ve…

  14. A full account can be deleted in a Proton app, dangerous idea

    A full account can be deleted in a Proton app, since there is in the app "settings/account/delete account" ?
    I find it very risky that this account delete option is available there. Not everyone is sufficiently technically savvy and an accident happened quickly. Especially because I personal have 10 installations of the VPN app which I would like to share with my family members. In addition, I would like to be sure that there is no unfortunate deletion.

    And even more when 2FA is activated, in addition to the password, the 2FA code doesn't even need to be entered for…

  16. Per-Container VPN Routing in Firefox/Zen

    Enable Proton VPN to define VPN routes not only globally across Firefox—as currently supported—but also on a per-container basis, similar to Mozilla VPN’s behavior. This enhancement would significantly increase flexibility and privacy for containerized browsing workflows.

    Use Case Examples:
    - Personal Container: Connect through the user’s home country to access domestic services such as banking or local news.
    - Language Learning Container: Route traffic via a foreign country to immerse in content and media in the target language.
    - Work Container: Use a dedicated VPN route optimized for workplace access or remote server geolocation.
    - Research Container: Connect via specialized…

  18. Add disconnect on a timer

    Sometimes you want to turn off the VPN to be able to deal with a site that blocks them, but you want to turn it right back on after. NordVPN has a feature where you can disconnect on a timer, like 5, 10 minutes etc after which is automatically re-connects.

  20. WireGuard country config files

    If I want to make a config file from the Proton VPN website and choose to use OpenVPN, I have the option to create a config file for Country, Standard server, or Secure Core. Conversely, if I choose WireGuard (which seems to be the strong recommendation in this post: https://protonvpn.com/blog/old-ovpn-configs), I can only pick from Standard server or Secure Core.

    This may be fine for the occasional ad-hoc connection, but is not ideal when creating a config file for a router.

    The Proton VPN website has the option to "Use the best server according to current load and position"…
