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…

Proton as an Internet Service Provider
Obviously this is a pie-in-the-sky idea, but with all of the features provided by Proton, it seems that creating an ISP seems like a reasonable (if not far off) step. Of course access would vary by country as Proton would build ISP infrastructure, and I'm not sure if this has any particular benefits vs using a VPN, but just an idea.

Add options to exclude one's own country from autoconnect in Android TV
On Android TV you can select a favourite country and it should have priority over everything. Apparently this does not work when adding vpn lock through adb. The system calls the Proton VPN app on Android TV and the app autoconnects to the fastest server which, in my case, it's always in my country.
This is not good and, for many, could even be unsafe.

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

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.

Notification if not connected
User sets the time to get notified if they're disconnected for longer than x period.
For users on iOS/android who may temporarily switch off the VPN and forget to toggle it back on, it would be great to have a notification based on a users preference (if not connected for x minutes, notify the user to say they're not connected)

show the connected server on the tray if it is one of the pinned ones.
If the VPN is connected to a pinned tray connection, reflect it on the tray dropdown window with a mark next to the connected server (Linux client).

Add VPN auto connect and block if not connected features
I have been using NordVPN on my FireStick and hoped to replace it with ProtonVPN however it is missing a few essential feature to make it useable.
I want my VPN to immediately connect on Startup and remain connected all the time. ProtonVPN on FireStick does not have autoconnection settings and doesn't prevent connection until (and only when) a VPN connection is made.
It is also missing the options to specify my own DNS servers.
Manually connecting each time and loosing VPN connection unknowingly is not acceptable, these are the reasons we want to use a VPN.
Thanks!

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.

Adult content filtering
Adding adult content filtering option for NetShield feature would be most welcoming for families or people trying to be free of its negative effects for themselves.
I have to use custom DNS option from outside of Proton VPN which can be risky for privacy concerns.
Filtering out industry that too often is predatory, capitalizing on peoples loneliness or people in desperate situations is a net positive in my opinion for everybody involved.

Provide warnings for recent legislature changes in selected country
Proton should provide a warning note against countries that have made recent legal changes that impact the internet. This could include things like the UK's Online Safety Act causing websites to behave differently or more serious legislation that allows the government to track or control internet access.
The goal of this feature would be to warn Proton VPN users about impending or recently implemented law changes for their awareness and safety online.

allow port forwarding on a router-based wireguard vpn
Please consider allowing port forwarding on a router-based wireguard vpn. I am unable to find any documentation on whether this is currently possible or not. I have an openwrt router using a wireguard vpn. I am happy with it, but it would be better if I could forward a port into my home network to allow plex access from outside the house.
Cheers!

Feature parity between Windows/Mac and Linux
I've started using Proton VPN in Windows, and it's a great app, full of resources, with great graphics, many resources, ability to auto-start, start minimized, auto-connect to a profile... The Mac version also looks very similar to Windows'.
However, recently I changed to Linux (Pop OS, Ubuntu based), and although I had no problems installing the GUI version of the app, it does not even remotely resemble the Windows/Mac version. It's a very, veeeeeeeeery simple app, without the majority of configuration options present in their other OS's counterparts.
Proton VPN team should dedicate more time to make the Linux version…
1,056 votesCurrently all three of these systems have feature parity; the gap is in terms of UI, and this is something that we have in our plans to close.

Un mot de pass par application Proton
Pour des raisons de sécurité je n'aime pas avoir le même mot de passe pour les différentes applications Proton, notamment VNP et Pass. Serait il possible que ces 2 appli n'aient pas le même mot de passe que celui du compte proton mail , drive ou calendar ?

Allow Kill Switch to block Internet when VPN failed to connect on startup.
The kill switch allows you to connect to the internet if Proton VPN failed to connect (during start-up) or if you manually disconnected.
It would be more secure if it only allowed connections through a VPN.
I personally connected to multiple public hotspots without noticing that my VPN was actually off.
