1. Mock gps

   A vpn feature known usually as mock GPS.
   It would have different options such as masking your GPS location to match your vpn ip address or to a specific location.

   Such as the browser extension cloaq on desktop or the Mock GPS Location app on the Play Store.
   There is also a simple version included in Surfshark that only uses the matching option.

2. Proton VPN’s kill-switch isn’t Direct-Boot aware on GrapheneOS

   On GrapheneOS, the updater runs before first unlock (BFU) to grab security patches, but Proton VPN’s kill-switch isn’t Direct-Boot aware. Enabling it brings up the VPN UI BFU, yet no network ever connects, so updates fail until you unlock the device.

   Repro:

   Install Proton VPN on GrapheneOS (e.g. Pixel 6 Pro 2025.05.15)

   Turn on kill-switch

   Reboot and stay at lock screen

   Watch the BFU updater time out for lack of network

   Impact:
   Devices miss critical patches until next unlock, extending exposure to exploits.

   Fix:
   • Mark the VPN service as android:directBootAware="true" in AndroidManifest.xml
   • Move its config/certs into Device-Protected Storage for BFU access

3. 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!

6. Option to quickly switch to a different VPN server

   About once a day, I resolve some connectivity issue by connecting to a different VPN server. Doing this is almost the only way I directly interact with ProtonVPN. The process often goes:

   1. Disconnect
   2. Connect
   

   But sometimes, Autoconnect will keep selecting the same server. The process then becomes (Android app):

   1. Disconnect
   2. Connect (recognize same server)
   3. Tap "Countries"
   4. Tap search icon
   5. Type city name
   6. Tap options icon next to city
   7. Tap server of choice
   

   My suggestion: If Autoconnect would disregard servers that I intentionally disconnected from (recently), my experience would be a lot better.

7. Dedicated IPs , Rotating IPs , Double VPN Costumized

   Dedicated IPs in major countries like the USA, Europe, Japan — something like NordVPN and Surfshark do, where we purchase dedicated IPs and choose the countries. However, it would be nice to include some shared dedicated IPs in the paid plan, with an additional fee option to have your own Proton IP in a country of your choice — Nord and Surfshark offer this.

   Double VPN like Surfshark does — you choose both countries, the entry and exit points. It's not meant to eliminate or improve Secure Core, but rather for a customized Double VPN experience.

   Rotating IPs — another feature from Surfshark where IPs change but the connection remains the same, without dropping, without changing countries, making tracking even more difficult.

   More secure physical servers — if it's physical, it should be secure. Virtual servers are far away, speed drops and latency explodes. Perhaps RAM-based servers could guarantee more security on physical servers.

8. Proton curated NetShield allowlist for privacy-respecting services

   Instead of implementing per-user domain whitelists across all VPN apps, Proton could maintain a curated allowlist of privacy-respecting domains (like www.startpage.com) that are exempt from NetShield ad blocking.

   This could be either:

   enabled by default, or
   offered as a single opt-in toggle.

   Pros: Simple implementation (DNS-side only), consistent across all platforms, supports privacy-friendly business models.

   Cons: Requires Proton to curate and maintain the list and some users may disagree with inclusion criteria or prefer maximum blocking without exceptions.

9. Manual Port selection

   Hi Team,

   I would like to request an optional manual port selection feature for WireGuard (UDP/TCP) and other supported protocols.

   For IPTV users, network performance can vary significantly depending on the port being used. Some ISPs throttle or prioritize traffic differently, and being able to switch between server-supported ports (e.g., UDP 53, 80, 443, 51820, etc.) could greatly improve streaming stability and reduce buffering.

   The current Auto mode should remain the default, but an Advanced option for manual port selection would be extremely valuable for power users.

   For example, Windscribe VPN already offers an optional manual port selection feature directly within the app. A similar implementation in Proton VPN would be greatly appreciated, especially for users who rely on IPTV and other latency-sensitive applications.

   Thank you for considering this feature. Proton VPN is an excellent service, and this addition would make it even better for IPTV and other latency-sensitive applications.

11. Split

    Split tunneling is extremely useful but could benefit greatly from another level of splitting so that apps could be put into a home country only vpn tunnel, switched to when opening. This would allow some apps that don't work under a vpn to work since geography often seems to be the issue. I realize this could mean a reconnect, but this ensures staying on vpn and not forgetting to re-enable it to the preferred default other country. When it switches, a second notification could effectively remind that a switch occurred (since the standard notification is there forever and so becomes background noise not paid attention to). A reroute notification would cover for the opted in use of this feature. Not sure if the best solution ro so many apps restricting vpn use, but many apps are no longer working under vpn, but many based on geography. 1/2 my daily apps are excluded via split tunneling it seems

12. More circuvmention

    Hi

    Can you please add:
    1. Support for stealth for Linux
    2. Amnesia WG or V2Ray

    Because in censored networks your connection usually blocked.

    Also, please, move all your VPN to 443! Because it is extremely trivial to block ports other than 53, 853, 443!

14. Linux app for arm64 GUI and CLI

    Hello, like many users, I use a low-power ARM64 machine for P2P downloads via Torrent. The problem is that there isn't a Linux ARM64 application yet, which prevents me from setting up the Port Forwarding as explained in the guides, since I have to use it through WireGuard instead of the official app.Is this release planned? Thanks.

15. Allow connecting via CLI as non-root

    Previously, I could run the CLI as my standard user on Arch without issue, so I added it to my ~/.zprofile, ensuring that I would always be connected to a VPN server. My login flow is to login to the TTY and then start a GUI from there.

    I updated my system on 2026-05-23, and since then, protonvpn fails with "unexpected error." If I open a terminal emulator after I start a GUI session and use the CLI from there, it prompts me for root privileges. I am the sole user of the laptop, but I do have a separate administrator account that I use solely for system maintenance. I should not have to use root credentials every time I log in.

16. ability to use the vpn extension or app to indicate if a website has one of proton's ip banned due to other user's abuse

    WARNING the core ideea is people who are ABUSING proton vpn. Please be very very carfull because i am talking about people who abuse

    You visit a website? it's blocked? why? abuse

    well then to click on the extension or app and it will register it.

    then, proton will have a records that, Lumo, can have a look around and find who is who without invading the privacy of anyone who is serious.

    once found, said person, even if using proton pass, to recive a warning from Lumo, because again, 100% privacy, on said person's main account.

    Like this anyone who was flagged by mistake can contact proton custom without any privacy issues.

    and anyone who abuses proton will now avoid paying money since their name will be on it to a degree or other.

    as in, a profile is build up. And people with malicious intention want to avoid that at all cost.

    and if they use proton free, there to be different ip from the one for people who pay... as if, as i said, such people want to stay away, they won't use the free proton vpn when others are "better".

    so at least we get rid of them via: website is blocked? we flag it. Lumo checks what users where the ones who recently where on that website, if they are pass or main account, and, even if lumo does not disclouse he email or otherwise, can report findings of abuse. And Proton's CS can then decide if there is enough for a warning, if not even ban, or even police or simple to just "rember" that account to build up a case of, if any further mesurments are even needed.

    WARNING: as i mentioned, i am talking JUST about people who abuse proton VPN

    also, me mentioning Lumo is because of how someone can "monitor" while 100% privacy.

    as in, no, it's not 2 or more ideeas. it's just one, the one for flagging if an IP is banned.

    So? we flag, proton recives the report? what can now proton do without affecting the 100% privacy trust? This is why i mentioned Lumo, because it's not possible to compromise privacy if people are involved.

    WARNING the core ideea is people who are ABUSING proton vpn. Please be very very carfull because i am talking about people who abuse

    You visit a website? it's blocked? why? abuse

    well then to click on the extension or app and it will register it.

20. ProtonVPN + Tailscale compatability

    Hi Proton team,
    I really appreciate how fast Proton iterates. One recurring pain point for privacy-conscious self-hosters is VPN + Tailscale coexistence.
    When Proton VPN is active (especially with kill switch), Tailscale stops working properly. This forces users to constantly disable one or the other, which defeats part of the purpose of running self-hosted services privately.
    Would it be possible to improve split tunneling / "Allow LAN access" so that it reliably works with Tailscale (and similar tools like Netbird or Headscale)? Even a dedicated "Overlay network mode" or better documentation would help a lot of power users.
    Thanks for all the work you do.
