  1. Linux client - AppImage support

    AppImage has a number of advantages that Snap and Flatpak do not have.

    1. Portability.

    2. No dependencies.

    3. Ease of use.

    4. Compatibility with any distribution.

    Supporting AppImage would be a significant step for the development of ProtonVPN on Linux. For example, in countries with high levels of censorship, it can be very difficult to download the ProtonVPN client from the internet without being connected to another VPN service. A portable version of ProtonVPN would solve this problem.

  2. Linux - Include client options to GUI

    Currently the linux client have several interested features that could be great to have in the GUI.

    For example be able to connect to fastest secure core server, or random secure core (--random -sc), random p2p, etc.
    It could be an option to click connect, like the other ones, or a param that could be added in the Autoconnect or Pinned tray icons, like the already existing "Fastest" option.

    For example:
    1. SecureCore -> --securecore
    2. Random -> --random
    3. RandomSecureCore -> --random --securecore
    4. P2P -> --p2p
    5. RandomP2P -> --random --p2p

    Only the GUI because it has support…

  3. Automatic MTU negotation

    For protonvpn with wireguard, I need to manually adjust the MTU down due to using a 5g hotspot wifi solution. It would be really nice if the app could automatically negotiate the optimal MTU when setting up, I imagine by just pinging the VPN bastion server with different packet sizes (once authenticated) and adjusting from there.

    Otherwise it would be nice if the app would at least allow you to override the MTU for different underlying networks.

  5. MacOS App: window with servers list

    The interface has changed slightly since the last update. The window with server list is too small, and it can't be resized. This is inconvenient. Please add the option to resize it.

  7. Split-Tunneling App List

    The current implementation of Split-Tunneling is good but I ran into a problem adding XBOX GamePass Games to it because the folder permissions does not allow Proton to open the .exe Files. I tried it by adding access rights for my user and for administrators but it still does not work.

    My feature suggestion: Add a list of installed or currently running apps that we can easily select for split tunneling.
    Or maybe a seperate Feature to add all XBOX App/GamePass Games to the exclusion

  8. Add 'include mode' to the browser extension's Split Tunneling feature

    The desktop app has exclude and include modes for split tunneling, allowing you to use it as a blacklist or whitelist respectively.
    The browser extension only has the exclude mode.

    Given recent changes to the internet, selectively VPNing certain websites would be extremely helpful.

  9. Port forwarding for dedicated game servers

    Ability to keep Ports open along with the ability if using wireguard on a router or vpn router ability to tell protonvpn too open ports range or single port forwarding and keep the ports open for dedicated game servers that way you can host game servers without worrying about exposing main ip or dns

  10. Split tunneling with hostnames

    In the current tech landscape, the same website can be served through thousands of distinct IPs, changing over time depending on specific criteria or even between deployments. It is humanly exhausting, and frankly unfeasible, to require that we have knowledge of IPs or IP ranges to exclude a specific site from VPN usage.

    I firmly believe that it is possible to implement the ability to provide access through hostnames (to enable any level of subdomain as well) without the need for a Herculean effort, even if it is necessary to require the user to use a specific DNS service.

    This…

  11. Use Quantum-Resistant Cryptogtaphic Algorithm

    OpenVPN uses TLS for encryption, Quantum Proof Algorithms including the four selected by NIST are provided by liboqs. The library is already present in repositories of many Linux Distros. liboqs is integrated in TLS, means no additional work is required for the client side. This would be very easy to implement in The VPN.

    Much better alternative would be that Proton makes it's own Algorithm. It would be a good way to add it as an optional feature in the initial stages for testing.

  12. VPN exclusion/exlude template for the surveillance/14 eyes/5 eyes countries

    On Android, I can exclude selected countries to be used in a Quick connect mode (fastest server). I always wanted to exclude surveillance countries listed at https://protonvpn.com/blog/5-eyes-global-surveillance#14-eyes (more than 22 countries).

    Why not to simplify the task of adding 22+ countries by creating a template "Surveillance countries" which user can tap and confirm the list of countries to be excluded (not connected to)?

  13. iPhone VPN active while hotspot enabled

    I would like Proton VPN to protect my iPhone while I use my linux PC to access the internet via the iPhone hotspot feature. The hotspot need not be protected by the VPN, but should be able to work with Proton VPN on my linux PC so that both devices are able to be protected concurrently.

  14. Implement Rolling/Tiered Server Maintenance to Avoid Complete Country-Wide Outages

    During routine maintenance cycles, I've noticed that all servers within a given country are occasionally taken offline simultaneously — occurring roughly every 2–3 months.

    This forces users to reroute through servers in neighboring countries, which often serve different regional content, languages, and geo-restricted services. The result is a noticeably degraded browsing experience that undermines the core value of a VPN.

    Proposed Solution:
    Introduce a rolling or tiered maintenance schedule that keeps a minimum percentage of servers online at all times within each country cluster. For example:

    • Tier 1 (Active): A baseline set of servers remains fully operational during any maintenance…

  15. More language options (Finnish/Swedish)

    Please add the same language options for Proton VPN on iOS/iPadOS, which are already on Proton Email app (29 languages). I wish especially Finnish and Swedish would be added for the VPN app.

    The VPN app for iOS now has 17 different language options.

    Many thanks!

  16. Split tunneling - Exclude one specific URL only.

    Split tunneling - Exclude one specific URL only.
    On my local network, I have to use a browser to access the settings for my Ethernet box. I could exclude the browser. However, I would prefer to exclude only the Ethernet box URL and be protected for other URLs.
    Note: I haven't found a solution to this problem. My “Allow LAN connections” setting is enabled. It doesn't allow access to the Ethernet box, probably because of the browser session, I guess.
    Thanks

  18. Re-ordering of Created VPN Profiles

    I would like the ability to drag/drop and freely change the order of my created VPN profiles so that some profiles appear at the top and are more visible than others.
    I have created more profiles over time and have found that I use some profiles more often than others, but unfortunately I have to remember to scroll down to get to them.
    This would also be nice for organization, like grouping profiles of a similar purpose together.

  19. Add "Allow LAN connections" and "Access devices by name" options in Profiles

    I often use LAN to access other devices in my network, and I'd like the ability to quickly switch profiles when I want to do that.
