Name IP addresses specified for split tunneling
It would be helpful to be able to name or tag IP addresses that are added to the split tunneling list. Names would help users avoid deleting an address by accident, and easily review the sites that have already been specified.

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.

Support for prime video on KDE plasma
Can add support for streaming website on Linux with KDE plasma dektiop environment.
Is impossible to use protonVPN to watch prime video if using Linux with KDE plasma (tested on prime video with fedora 42 with the latest KDE/QT version 6.3.5)4 votes -
Support /etc/host like format for custom domain names
Considering Android requires root access to update the /etc/hosts, the usual way to override this is by using a "local VPN" that will intercept requests and resolve based on that local /etc/hosts file.
It would be great to have that extra capability in Proton VPN.3 votes -
Split tunneling file selection dialog used to remember the last folder you selected, now it defaults to documents
This is very useful and was included in the previous version, now we have to constantly navigate to appdata for re-adding discord since every discord update comes with a new folder and executable

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…24 votes -
Copy forwarded port from the tray icon menu
With the new Windows app, copying the port can get a bit annoying. Currently, the way to copy the port is by opening the app, hovering over 'Port forwarding', and clicking the copy icon. This adds a lot of unnecessary delay, like waiting for the app to open or for the flyout with the port to fade in.
Adding a 'Copy port' entry in the tray icon menu would be a quick and easy way to quickly copy the forwarded port number.

Smart DNS For Server Middle East Saudi Arabia
Dear Proton Team,
I hope this message finds you well.
First of all, I would like to thank you for providing a reliable and privacy-focused VPN service. I’ve been a happy user of ProtonVPN and greatly appreciate your commitment to privacy and open internet access.
However, I would like to bring to your attention an issue that affects many users in the Middle East, especially those in Saudi Arabia. Currently, popular regional streaming platforms such as Shahid block access when using ProtonVPN, even when connected to a Saudi IP server.
This limitation prevents users from enjoying local content while using…

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.

Windows App Icon Not Showing When Active Since New Update
The tray icon on Windows shows a green lock now, but the program itself doesn't on the Taskbar, which was something I looked at the most. Now, I have no idea if my VPN is active without opening the program or navigating to see the tray icon. Please fix.

4.1.13 where is the checkmark in the icon in the tray - this should be checked before every release.
I don't have a flicker. It's worked before. green check-mark in the tray icon is not appearing today with latest release. It should be checked (no pun intended) before every release. this is not the first time I've had this issue, I had it on at least one other release.

Add the percentage [of serve use], to log to the least busy server, in the profile column, at left.
It would be useful to add the percentage [of serve use], to log to the least busy server, in the profile column, at left. You could eliminate the country name, and the city, as it is abbreviated.
So one can see at a glance the least busy server. and log on to it.5 votes -
Allow Users to Choose VPN Protocols on AppleTV App
Currently there is no way to pick VPN protocols within the AppleTV app, this causes problems when certain networks such as hotels block common VPN protocol traffic like WireGuard and OpenVPN. Stealth mode would be ideal in the circumstance, but currently only the fastest option is supported.

Allow some choice of where to connect .
Like I'm sure many others I feel I already have enough security with Protonmail. I need (want) a UK based VPN for about 3-4 months of the year when I am out of the country. (I've found the BBC disables attributes on their news website depending on the ISP address and this is annoying.) I use one or two email addresses at most and am already paying for Mail+ for a load of features I largely don't need. Now you want more money for access to a load more VPN features I don't need or want. Seems a bit unfair

Android TV Kill Switch
Hi,
I am a paying user of the Proton Unlimited pachage and I am very happy with Protons VPN. However, I use an androidbox on my tv and I am missing a killswitch!
Please add this as soon as possible because this is a real deal braker for me and I will probably switch back to Nord VPN if this is not fixed in the near future. I dont get why such an importand setting is not implemented in the android version of your VPN! I read many complaints about this issue on Reddit and people are looking at other,…12 votes -
Linux beta client: Allow server ranges for the text options
Currently, one can set two different text boxes in the beta Linux client: "Auto connect", which accepts country codes, a specific server (such as NL#42) or "FASTEST". And then there's "Pinned tray connections", which accepts country code or specific server, multiple entries, comma-delimited.
While we're waiting for a better GUI, I would like to have the option of picking a specific range of servers for "Auto connect", such as: US#18-25 (for example).
As well as for "Pinned tray connections", choosing a ranged server entry would pick the best option within that range. A typical "Pinned tray connections" would look like…

Extend LAN network through VPN
Add a feature that allows a desktop (or a home server) to be used as an endpoint for VPN connection, allowing the user to use the internet like they are in its local network. Useful to connect to LAN devices safely without exposing them to the Web and for limited services like Netflix that blocks users from other places to connect to the same account.

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.
