  1. Kill Switch option in Profiles

    Hi ProtonVPN team,

    I’d love to see an option added to the profile creation process that lets users set up Kill Switch preferences right from the start. Specifically, it would be great to choose whether the Kill Switch is enabled or disabled for that profile, and also select between the standard and advanced modes.

    This would give users more control over how each profile behaves based on their needs. For example, someone might want a profile with the advanced Kill Switch enabled for maximum protection, and another with it off for more flexibility.

    Thanks for your time and for continuously…

  2. Support Usage across multiple local users on Mac

    Currently some Proton apps are unusable on a Mac with multiple local users. For instance if you have Mac User A and Mac User B both with Proton accounts (PA and PB)

    Mac User A installs Proton VPN and Proton Drive and logs into each with PA

    Mac User B uses "Switch Users" to log into their local Mac account and tries to use Proton Apps

    *Proton VPN: The app will open and Mac User B logs in with their Proton B account but the VPN will never establish a connection. It will say "connecting" but eventually time out with

  3. 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.

  4. Option to exclude servers by city/state/country

    Option to exclude servers by city/state/country. It's no secret why many U.S. users flocked to ProtonVPN in recent users. It sucks to be automatically connected to servers in the state we're trying to get around, even if that is the fastest connection.

  6. 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…

  7. macOS - Enhanced support for fast user switching

    Currently, it appears that ProtonVPN does not support multiple ProtonVPN users of the same macOS machine, while using fast user switching.

    After fast switching to a second user who also launches ProtonVPN, any attempt to establish their own VPN connection is unsuccessful. If the second user's instance ProtonVPN remains open, this also causes the original user to be unable to connect if their account is later returned to.

    Logging out rather than fast switching does not appear to cause the same issue. Nor does manually closing ProtonVPN before making a fast switch to another user.

    Other VPN providers enable multiple…

  8. Show server load before selecting secure core for each country feature, new version had removed this feature

    The new version 4.1.13 did not display the server load before selecting. It is slow and troublesome to connect and found that the country server load is high and I have to switch to another country one by one to find out low server load country and this method is very inefficient and resulting proton and users unnecessary servers connecting and disconnecting. Hopefully this pre-display server load feature before secure core connection can be reinstated back into the new version.

  9. Secure Core on Map

    When Secure Core countries selected in the list -> only show secure core connections on the map as well and connect to them through the map. The old Desktop Version had that.

  10. 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!

  11. Support More flexible VPN lite package

    I'm hoping for a Proton VPN Lite plans with a data limit of 3-5TB per month (priced between $4.99-$5.99 per month). The very unstable speeds and high latency at $9.99 per month are really daunting, and compared to other competing VPN products, I think it have no pricing advantage. I hope your teams'll consider it!

  12. Allow a config file or something similar for use during automated installs during Windows Sandbox spinup.

    Lots of folks use the Included Sandbox with the Windows Pro versions of 10 & 11. They allow scripts to be run to install apps, like Firefox and VPN's among many others during the OS spinup process.

    Allowing the .launcher to have the login and password included would be a great feature or maybe a way to drop a file somewhere that had my configuration info in a place to have your launcher pre-populate those fields for launching the vpn app would be extremely helpful. Having to open my PW manager and copy and paste both the username and password…

  13. The ProtonVPN client works great; I wish I could get PVPN and pfSense working that well.

    The PVPN client performance is stellar, but I seek similar performance for whole home protection by setting up PVPN in a pfSense VirtualBox VM on a separate laptop which doesn't do much else. I've used PVPN via that setup for years. Running speed tests on the same machine as where the pfSense/PVPN VM is running, I have found to be disastrous: incredibly low throughput, no matter what PC it's running on.

    No VPN: 95Mbps. PVPN client: 85Mbps. PVPN+pfSense: 50Mbps (worst case). Those are download speeds given by OpenSpeedTest run from a different PC on the LAN than where the pfSense…

  15. 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

  16. 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!!

  17. Enable multiple countries for one profile

    Make is possible to choose a pool of countries for a profile with the app choosing the fastest server or randomly choosing one of the countries / servers in the pool.

    I usually use 5 different countries for my everyday cell phone usage. I like to switch them from time to time. It would be nice to have them in one profile, so that country changes automatically when reconnecting.

  18. Apple tv NetShield support

    The apple TV app needs NetShield Ad-blocker support. Without this its almost useless as it is now. I really should match feature parity with the Ipad version at the minimum but NetShield would at least make it usable.

  19. Forward More Than One port

    Currently with dynamic forwarding a single port can be forwarded for P2P connections. Sometimes more than a single port is necessary (an obfuscated port). It would be helpful if we had the ability to forward multiple ports within the GUI rather than searching for third-party solutions.
