  1. 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 M247

    Currently, 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.

  2. More Servers Outside of Jurisdictions with Age Verification Laws

    With the implementation of age verification laws in the UK, Australia, and many states in the US, as a ProtonVPN user only using the free tier, I don’t want to connect to a server in a jurisdiction where I would have to show my ID. I propose, as a passive endeavor, that when you, the team behind ProtonVPN buys new servers, you avoid putting them in jurisdictions with age verification laws, to give a better chance of the fastest servers being in restrictive locations.

  3. VPN on Apple Watch

    VPN on Apple Watch. You are unprotected if one of your devices is not protected. It's not enough to protect the mobile, the watch goes with you and uses all types of connections.

  4. 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…

  5. browser extension

    The browser extension needs a bit of rework because it severs the connection a lot of times when it's on, regardless of whether it's a secure core or normal connection. It could also include CleanWeb, so it's not just in the desktop app, and also it could be more specific, ic uBlock Origin, so it could block scripts and have special filters. And the ui could do a bit of rework too.

  6. 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.

  7. Fix the Proton VPN app - high ram use and lag

    See here - https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonVPN/comments/1h7g8vs/why_in_the_name_of_god_proton_vpn_takes_so_fing/. Proton VPN uses hundreds of MB RAM. And lags horribly when opened.

    Please investigate and fix this. I assume you're using some sort of HTML framework. Maybe swap to something designed for desktop and speed - like Avalonia or Flutter.

  10. Suggestion: Temporary VPN Connection for Login Assistance

    Dear Proton VPN Team,

    I am a user from mainland China. When trying to log in to the Proton VPN desktop client, the login process often fails due to local network restrictions. This makes it difficult for users in regions with strict internet controls to access the service, even if they already have valid accounts.

    I would like to suggest adding a feature that allows the client to temporarily enable a lightweight VPN connection (or use a fallback method) during the login process. This would help users bypass local blocks and successfully authenticate, after which the normal VPN connection could…

  11. Proton VPN firewall, post quantistic and other improvements

    • the possibility to link proton profiles to the account, so when I use the vpn on different devices I can find my own profiles
    • the possibility to change the server with a dedicated button which will follow the current VPN settings (same type, protocol, country, and so on) just using a different server
    • the integration (for mobile Android) of a firewall which can block internet connection for selected apps from user. This would be really really useful to block internet connection to app that doesn't need it (clock, calculator, file manager, and so on). In the market place there are…

  12. Set a Favorite Server as Default

    In the next Proton VPN update, I suggest that the user have the option to set a favorite server as default. That way, whenever someone turns on their computer or phone, they are logged in directly to it. For example, I really like the performance and speed of server 101 (Brazil). But having to select it every time is quite inconvenient.

  13. Adding an application name instead of the app's location for split tunneling

    give us the option to add the executable name instead adding the file location, some applications after they recieve an update the change the path to the exe file and with the current method i have to go back to protonvpn and add the application back to the list every time, if there was a way to for example tell proton to tunnel the app named "discord.exe" through vpn then after the app receives an update and changes the path i still can use the app with vpn without going through the process of adding it again

  14. 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.

  16. Add a feature to the Android version of Proton VPN that allows you to choose which apps can access the internet.

    Add a feature to the Android version of Proton VPN that allows you to choose which apps can access the internet. This is different from split tunneling; it would give you the ability to block full internet access for apps that don't need it.
    There are already apps that do this, but they use a VPN themselves and therefore cannot be used with Proton VPN.

  17. Real-Time VPN Connection Security and Data Privacy Verification

    It would be useful if ProtonVPN could indicate in real time whether the VPN connection is truly active or has been disconnected.

    It is important that any data traffic generated during the connection (such as DNS queries, IP addresses, and visited websites) is genuinely not logged or is securely deleted in real time.

    It would be helpful if all of this could be verifiably confirmed in real time, so that users can be confident about their data security.

  20. Fix Custom DNS on Linux and Windows

    Custom DNS on Linux and Windows Does not work. The custom DNS address is ignored, and DNS requests are still sent via Proton servers.

    It works on Android (although after some time it seems to revert to Proton DNS servers until I disconnect and reconnect, when it starts working again).

    This needs resolving please.
