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.

Nevada
Please add servers back to Las Vegas. It was a huge reason why I chose proton back in 2021. Im from Nevada but work out of the state which causes all sorts of issues when browsing or trying to log into financial institutions.

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!

Dedicated IPv6 Addresses
IPv6 addresses are practically unlimited, unlike IPv4 addresses. Could we please get the option for free dedicated IPv6 addresses?
What I'd like to see:
- Option to use shared (currently available) or dedicated IPv6 address
- Per Wireguard profile
- Open incoming ports - let us host a public web server if we want to!Bonus:
- Ability to regenerate the address, e.g. in the Proton VPN desktop app or the web portal for Wireguard configs.
- DHCP-PD for routers. I don't know if any are supporting it today.21 votes -
Replace location switch timers with advertisements
The way that the free version of Proton VPN currently works (on mobile, at least) is that the locations users can switch to are randomised, and there are timers that force you to wait between switches. Not only is this annoying for users, but from a business perspective, it doesn't seem very profitable. I understand that these features are here to encourage people to buy the premium version, but that leaves the people who don't want a subscription not being profitable at all. My proposal is to replace the timers and randomisation with needing to watch an ad to switch…

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.

Autoconnect when wifi is lost, disconnect on trusted wifi,
I use a vivo Fold 3, there's no VPN option available. Only from within the proton app.
Like Surfshark, an auto connect when no WiFi would be so good. And then, auto disconnect when on trusted WiFi, would be a great addition. As my router is always connected through proton VPN, there's 2 vpn's active when I'm home. And always need to manually disconnect the VPN ... In 2025... Please add these features.3 votes -
Physically Located VPN Server on the Philippines
Hello,
Could you please consider adding or switching to a server provider that is physically located in the Philippines?
I’ve noticed that other VPN providers like Mullvad and Windscribe use Zenlayer for their Philippine servers. Perhaps Proton could explore incorporating Zenlayer as well to enhance local connectivity and performance.
Thank you for your consideration.

Announcement of DNS Filterlists or further Insight into NetShield
It is hard to decide wether to choose Proton VPN with Netshield or a custom DNS Server to avoid beeing tracked by Android App Trackers and App Analysis Tools. This is because Proton gives little information about what connections are being blocked by NetShield. It would be very very helpful to know which common IPs or Tracking Providers are being blocked. That would prevent Users from having to make decisions by gut feeling. It would also bring more Users who are not as tech savvy as others and who want a whole in one solution. Other DNS Server Providers like…

Please allow Split Tunneling setting for each profile separately
I am a total noobie in Proton VPN but after experimenting awhile, I was not able to set Split Tunneling settings for each profile separately but only universally for the whole application. If this not only my inability to use th app correctly but a existing limitation, please make it possible.

Add Kill Switch option to Proton VPN app on FireTV .
We have Proton VPN Plus but the Amaon/FireTV app does not offer the Kill Switch option. And the amazon app version is not the same as the version on our laptops...why?

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.

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)

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.

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!

Kill switch should stay on with split tunneling
I use Proton VPN at the router level, so my home Wi-Fi is already protected. On my laptop, I’d like to exclude my home network from the VPN using split tunneling without disabling the kill switch.
Right now, having both the router VPN and the laptop VPN running creates a double VPN, which slows down all internet traffic while I’m at home. If split tunneling worked with the kill switch enabled, I could use my home network normally without the slowdown, and when I leave home and connect to any other network, the kill switch would still protect me—no manual…

Automatic control of phone VPN
This would automatically connect and disconnect when connected or disconnected to/from a secure WIFI SSID with a VPN already running.
I use DD-wrt on my home router which automatically runs an OpenVPN with a kill switch, so seem an over kill having the phone going through multiple VPNs. Plus periodically it causes a problem connecting to the security cameras, and when turn off on the phone there is no problem.2 votes -

Developing a VPN Protocol like Nordlynx
Hey,
I know that NordVPN uses its own VPN protocol based on Wireguard (called NordLynx), giving the possibility to get more privacy and faster internet speeds, since they can tweak the protocol however they want. So why not do the same with ProtonVPN? The new protocol could be named ProtonVortex, emphasizing the faster speeds but still secure environment this protocol would allow.3 votes
