Multiple WG Clients on One Router
Hello ProtonVPN Support,
I am running ProtonVPN on an ASUS RT-AX86U router using Asuswrt-Merlin firmware. I would like to run multiple ProtonVPN WireGuard client profiles simultaneously and route different LAN clients through different ProtonVPN exits using Merlin’s VPN Director policy-routing feature.
The problem is that all of the ProtonVPN WireGuard configuration files generated for my account appear to use the same tunnel-side addresses:
Interface Address:
10.2.0.2/32DNS:
10.2.0.1When I enable multiple ProtonVPN WireGuard clients at the same time on the router, all clients show successful handshakes, but traffic does not route correctly. The router’s route tables end up associating…

Show Hosting Provider Info in Server List
Please add hosting provider info directly in the ProtonVPN app, displayed alongside the server name (e.g. PL#81 – DataCamp).
Or even better, add categories for hosting providers, just like cities currently are, so users can quickly find all servers from a specific provider that work best with their ISP.
For example, my ISP performance varies by provider:
- Excellent with Datacamp Limited (DataPacket)
- Decent with PV-SL-HOSTED-Warsaw-Network
- Terrible with M247Currently, I have to connect to multiple servers and check my IP info to find a provider that works well, which wastes several minutes and is very annoying.

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.21 votes -
Perpetual NetShield Statistics
I think being able to see the total amount of ads blocked and data saved perpetually would be pretty cool. I'm especially referring to the android VPN app as the statistics reset every time the VPN is turned off or changed.

Onion Service for protonvpn.com
Please add a Tor Onion Service for protonvpn.com
Proton currently already has an Onion Service for the main site:
However, there is no Onion Service for the vpn site:
Please create an Onion Service for the protonvpn.com site.
I recommend doing this by a subdomain of the existing Onion Service, for example:
After the Onion Service is available, please also update the 'onion-location` header, so that Tor Browser automatically notifies visitors of protonvpn.com that there is a more secure Onion Service available

Feature for Proton VPN (gtk) App
Proton VPN App creates an icon in the toolbar / app-bar, where hovering mouse over it tells "Proton VPN". That is good for the beginner, but the thing I usually want to know is 1) Where am I connected [CH-#123] or if I am not connected, 2) to tell [Proton VPN not connected]. At the present I have to open the "Show" to see the connection. Even more information could be useful, but I have no ideas for that.
Secondly I want the "Show" appear just below the "Disconnect" option. "Quit" can well be the last one.

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 --p2pOnly the GUI because it has support…

5 year, 10 year or even custom year subscription?
Proton should consider offering longer‑term subscription options such as 5‑year, 10‑year, or even fully custom multi‑year plans. A lifetime subscription could also be an attractive option, provided the pricing remains reasonable rather than excessive.
Introducing these plans would allow Proton to offer even more competitive month‑to‑month value, while loyal users would benefit from long‑term stability without needing to renew frequently or hunt for new deals when their current plan expires.
Thank you for your consideration.

Back up and restore for ProtonVPN profiles on Android
If a user has quite a few profiles defined and gets a new device, or has another device, the ability to back up and restore ProtonVPN profiles on Android is essential. Right now there is no way to save/restore them.

Missing data transfer notification option
In the notification area, only the country and total upload/download and speed since the start of using the application are displayed. It would be great if there was an option in the settings to specify, for example, daily download/upload or weekly or monthly or select a date from when to when. This option would be great for tracking a monthly data plan

Proton VPN being blocked. Blacklisting.
Many websites are starting to block Proton's VPN. It's getting harder to use. Sometimes, I have to disable the VPN just to do transactions. It's almost as if well-known domains are blacklisting certain Proton domains or IP addresses. If I use Norton VPN or log in directly through my ISP, there are no issues. The weird thing is that the older version of Proton VPN was more stable.

Hide VPN usage far too complicated and uneffective
I wanna be unblocked every time I'm using my VPN, but it seems to me that even if I follow the dedicated guide, it's almost impossible to hide my VPN, so I'm unable to see what I want where I could if they cannot see my Proton VPN.
I wish it were a service too effective and far simpler than it is ATM.1 vote -

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…37 votes -
Kill-Switch with Split-Tunneling for Mac
Apparently ProtonVPN has implemented this feature in Windows:
Proton removes restrictions on simultaneous feature usage on Windows
- Users can now use Split Tunneling, Kill Switch, and NetShield altogether
- Split tunneling is currently in beta for Mac and Linux usersIf you’ve been using Proton VPN on Windows, you’ve likely encountered a frustrating "pick two" scenario. For a long time, the app forced users to make a compromise: if you wanted to use split tunneling to route specific apps outside the VPN, you often had to disable other critical security features.
According to an X post by the company,…

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!

Replace ads to bypass anti-ad blocker censorships
You could toggle a switch and instead of fully blocking ads it replaces them with like a “blocked by Proton” 1-5 seconds video, so that he website/app thinks it loaded a ads but in reality it didn’t, to help fight AD BLOCKER censorship

PC Performance
I would appreciate if the Windows VPN Client could get a "minimalist" or "performance" mode with reduced footprint on system resources. Even on a modern high end PC and especially when using other Proton apps at the same time, multitasking and working, it adds up.
Maybe we could get a setting for a minimal UI without all the fancy elements and animations? Even closed to the sys tray and being in the background, the VPN uses over 400MB RAM + dedicated GPU VRAM while constantly drawing GPU utilization causing unnecessary interrupts. It's undesireable when using the VPN while doing other…5 votes -
