Dedicated IP for personal plans
It is an option for business users and would be a nice add for home users. My wife is sick of all the capchas and blocked sites from the VPN. I have been using Proton mail since 2019 and the unlimited since last year. Had to switch back to mail only until you add the dedicated ip to home users at a reasonable cost.
Thank you for the consideration.

IP & Domain Filter / Denylist
I would like to have the option to block some IPs or domains like X.com to prevent me from using them.
Simple feature to NetBlock or separate.
Exactly like Denylist in NextDNS.
I can't set custom DNS when NetShield is enabled.14 votes -
Prioritize physical servers instead of the virtual servers on countries with both
Right now, in Indonesia we have both physical servers and virtual servers. The thing is, when u click connect to Indonesia. It will randomly choose the virtual servers instead of the physical servers. In my opinion this is a flawed logic because not only do we have more added latency. There are also a few different sites that can tell that Proton's virtual IPs are not actually from Indonesia. Not only that, having ProtonVPN prioritize physical servers means that you will also most likely have a better speed and experience overall because we wont have to worry about the quality…

Improve the speed of "Auto startup".
It takes a lot of time for Proton VPN to launch & connect to a VPN server automatically. I log on and have to wait a lot before being able to use the internet as I have to wait for Proton VPN to connect to a server. This is really annoying and is like my number one concern with Proton VPN.
One proposed fix was: https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932836-proton-vpn/suggestions/44812795--feature-request-connect-on-boot, which says "completed" but no matter how hard I try to find this function, it, as far as I know, doesn't exist.
Please do something about this. I'm not a developer so I…

Secure core chaining
I wanted to suggest a potential enhancement for the Secure Core feature. Currently, it’s only possible to select one Secure Core server as the first hop, and the exit must be outside the Secure Core network. It would be great if users could chain multiple Secure Core servers together.
For example, it could allow connections like Switzerland → Iceland, or Switzerland → Sweden, rather than being limited to an external exit server. This would provide an additional layer of security for users who want to maximize jurisdictional protection across multiple Secure Core nodes.
Thank you for considering this improvement, and…6 votes -
Android TV Updater
Please look to include a built in updater, it’s madness that one has to go to the google play store to update it especially when wanting to de google.

User Interface Refresh for Fire TV/Android TV + inclusion of profiles
A major overhaul/refresh of the Fire/Android TV apps to bring in some cohesion with Apple TV, Windows and phone apps.
Also to include profile options like Fastest Location (excluding my country) for the TV apps. If not profiles, at least the Fastest Location (ex.) option.

Align Proton VPN versions on Google Play and F-Droid
Currently, Google Play offers the user version 5.11.94.0 (2025-06-06) for installation. At the same time, F-Droid offers version 5.11.39.1 (2025-06-11). I propose to align the versions available in these app stores.

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.11 votes -
I2P
I’d like to propose adding native support for the Invisible Internet Project (I2P) to enhance Proton VPN’s offerings.
I2P is a decentralized, anonymizing network that enables secure, private communication, complementing Proton’s existing Tor support. Integrating I2P could:
Appeal to privacy-focused users who use I2P for secure browsing, messaging, or file sharing.
Position Proton VPN as a leader in supporting multiple anonymity networks.
Simplify setup for users, as manual I2P configuration with VPNs can be complex.
Suggested features could include dedicated I2P servers, one-click connectivity (similar to your Tor integration), or optimized settings for I2P traffic (e.g., port forwarding or split…20 votes -
Add profiles to Android TV
Adding the Profiles option to Android TV would make it easier to access apps that don't work with all servers by adding those that work individually.

Improve Stealth Mode - it is currently detected by Google
While using Stealth Mode, YouTube is now consistently asking me to sign in, to "prove that I am not a bot". This did not happen in the past. When disconnecting from Proton VPN, YouTube no longer is asking for a sign in. So obviously Google is able to detect the difference between a "Stealth" connection and a normal connection. This would disqualify this protocol as being "Stealth". Please improve Stealth Mode.

Auto shutdown when phone put in airplane mode
I would love for the VPN to automatically stop trying to connect when I place my phone in airplane mode and also have it auto connect when I take my phone out of airplane mode.
While in airplane mode (with no WiFi services, such as on a flight) the application keeps attempting to connect to a server. This significantly drains my battery, unless I remember to manually disconnect it after toggling airplane mode on.

Use Quantum-Resistant Cryptogtaphic Algorithm
OpenVPN uses TLS for encryption, Quantum Proof Algorithms including the four selected by NIST are provided by liboqs. The library is already present in repositories of many Linux Distros. liboqs is integrated in TLS, means no additional work is required for the client side. This would be very easy to implement in The VPN.
Much better alternative would be that Proton makes it's own Algorithm. It would be a good way to add it as an optional feature in the initial stages for testing.

Add 'include mode' to the browser extension's Split Tunneling feature
The desktop app has exclude and include modes for split tunneling, allowing you to use it as a blacklist or whitelist respectively.
The browser extension only has the exclude mode.Given recent changes to the internet, selectively VPNing certain websites would be extremely helpful.

Low Profile VPN Servers/IPs
Almost all Proton IPs are polluted with bad reputation due to various malicious acts made through its VPN. This is really really annoying for good users.
I think a large percentage of malicious acts made on Proton VPN servers are done via new accounts that are pretty quickly banned by Proton and by victims- but it still leaves a bad trace on the history of that ip.
I propose a solution that could at least reduce ip pollution for quite a few users- what if we had few servers (or ips) that you only get access to after a year…

Launch Linux GUI app on boot
I saw a completed post asking the Linux app on boot, but I guess it is not the GUI version, or perhaps not the one for Fedora.
For me on Fedora with the GUI version I have to manually launch Proton VPN every time.
By manually launching Proton VPN:
1 - The system remains unprotected for a certain time;
2 - Creates a needless ritual for every session;
3 - Nullifies the purpose of the kill switch.~/.config/autostart/ , Startup applications or GNOME extensions does not work because the GUI fails to connect during login. Only the kill switch starts…
