Add a timer to do automatic release and re-connect (adding reconnect to lowest # connections server in group)
I find, on the Mac at least, that my VPN connection will become saturated and will fail after a while. I can solve this by disconnecting and then reconnecting. This seems to flush the tcp/ip stack and allows for network traffic to begin again. I then see qBitorrent is transferring on multiple connections again. Sometimes I need to restart qBitorrent as well, but not nearly as often. I don't know if this is a bug in the tcp/ip stack or how Mac handles the traffic on an OS level. It may also be from the saturation in the network stack…

Enable custom VPN profiles & seamless multi‑VPN switching on Android (shared kill‑switch)
Android only permits one active VPN at a time, which forces me to disconnect Proton VPN whenever I need to use my work OpenVPN or my home WireGuard tunnel. Because the kill‑switch is tied to the active tunnel, I lose protection during each switch.
What I’d like:
- Import custom VPN configs (.ovpn / WireGuard .conf) directly in the Proton VPN app and save them as separate profiles.
- Profile orchestration: let the app switch between Proton, work, and home VPNs without manually closing the current tunnel first.
- Smart kill‑switch: keep the kill‑switch engaged during the transition, blocking traffic until the newly selected tunnel…

Search for VPN server
I'd like the ability to quickly type and search for VPN servers/countries, on both iOS and Mac. Surfshark does this and it's such a friendly way to quickly switch to different countries based on my needs. on protonvpn, I have to scroll and search for the flag/abbreviation of the country, which is not a great UX

Connect Proton VPN on more than one device
Be able to connect to Proton VPN on more than one device with the free plan! I don't think its fair we have to pay to have my phone and laptop connected at the same time. This should be a standard security feature across all devices. This way I can browse the internet more safely by hiding my location. Please consider making Proton VPN available to connect to more than one device with the free plan!!

Give us the ablility to exclude specific servers.
Youtube has been blocking based on IP. Once that happens, I wouldn't mind excluding those servers.

browser extension
The browser extension needs a bit of rework because it severs the connection a lot of times when it's on, regardless of whether it's a secure core or normal connection. It could also include CleanWeb, so it's not just in the desktop app, and also it could be more specific, ic uBlock Origin, so it could block scripts and have special filters. And the ui could do a bit of rework too.

Ability to set default secure core on windows
It would be great to be able to set the default connection to be random country (via secure core) or fastest country (via secure core), just like IOS when you toggle secure core on.

Smart Double Kill Switch (No, this is not Secure Core)
NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH SECURE CORE
The ability to have two servers, one being the “active” one and another one being a “passive” one, like for aircraft radio, allows for quick switching if one of the servers is not avaliable and also if the connection drops on one, this could be added to Kill Switch to jump immediately onto the 2nd server without any connection interruptions. So like if a server fails you jump immediately onto a 2nd without any drop in connection. Like VPN Accelerator but one server just not sending anything through
Ideas for names: Double VPN…

Fix the Proton VPN app - high ram use and lag
See here - https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonVPN/comments/1h7g8vs/why_in_the_name_of_god_proton_vpn_takes_so_fing/. Proton VPN uses hundreds of MB RAM. And lags horribly when opened.
Please investigate and fix this. I assume you're using some sort of HTML framework. Maybe swap to something designed for desktop and speed - like Avalonia or Flutter.

The ProtonVPN icon in the menu bar
The ProtonVPN icon in the menu bar would be more visible to have a Green Check when connected and a Red X when not connected.

Additional Sorting Features in App
Current sorting options mean that if you create a new profile or pin a server in the recents tab it automatically goes to the bottom of your list and can't be reorganized. Being able to manually organize those in order to move a new profile to the top of the list or to move a less frequently used server to the bottom of the list would be appreciated.

Different servers for different applications
In my country some mobile applications don't work with different countries' IPs. It would be nice to specify for those applications one of two options: run without VPN or run with chosen country/server. Especially it is important for applications that run in the background.

Reconnect option for active profile.
Please add an option to reconnect the active profile. Right now, if I'm using the Fastest Country profile, and I see that my server load is high, I have to disconnect and then connect again, leaving my network open for a second.
I assume that a proper reconnect button would avoid any lapse in VPN coverage.

new feature to test all servers in a country for speed and latency and get the result as list
(1) Please offer a feature to test all servers in a specific country for speed and latency and get the result as a list to chose the best server for use in other apps or as server on the router which doesn't have quick connect.
(2) Similar feature to find the best available, reachable server for countries with censorship which blocks VPN.3 votes -
Please add an option to change graphing from KiloByte/MegaByte to Kilobit/Megabit
I prefer seeing network traffic in bits instead of bytes. That way i dont have to sit there and fiddle with dividing by 8 to see the total bit traffic instead of byte traffic. thank you.

Add Profile Selection to Proton iOS Shortcut
Please update the iOS ‘Connect to VPN’ shortcut to allow users to select a profile to use for the connection. I have listed below 2 use cases which I would like to achieve.
Example use case 1: when I arrive at work (done through the iOS shortcuts app) I connect to the work profile which uses the stealth protocol.
Example use case 2: when I arrive at home (also done through the iOS shortcuts app) I connect to the home profile which uses the wire-guard protocol.

fully configurable through an MDM
I plan to use an MDM (42Gears) instead of traditional parental controls for my kids' devices (Android + Linux).
Could you design a version of the always-on VPN that blocks all connections without the VPN, and most importantly, is fully configurable through an MDM like 42Gears ?
Thank you!5 votes
