★★★★★Barman Azadi· Sep 24, 2026
Hey proton team proton VPN is very good though, but it's missing something and that is all those features in plus now available in free both of them will have the same feature just a one major difference the plus version needs a payment method and if free version is Well free
★★★★★Robert Heng Woo Lim· Sep 19, 2026
FANTASTIC !!! Finally, works, thanks STEFAN, .....but still too COMPLICATED, .....may I suggest using pre-prepared TEMPLATES, containing set scenarios, which we subscribers could SIMPLY select one or two templates, or add in more in the future, according to our CHANGING circumstances !!!

One of the best free VPN Out there, no problems what's so ever. If you don't mind a little lag every now and again, then this is perfect for you!

There is no option to add your own encrypted DNS DoH/DoQ. This doesn't require a support email! You simply lack the custom encrypted DNS feature; you only have a custom DNS for your IP address without encryption. Also, the jitter is too high, although I use all the features and my internet is stable and has no jitter.

It's a terrible shame we can't leave multiple bad reviews. From 9am till 3:30pm I was unable to get one decent European server, does anyone actually remember when Proton VPN was a good service?
★☆☆☆☆Firdavs Jorayev· Sep 24, 2026
I have an old problem with Proton vpn, why connecting VPN is very slow? I should clean the app's storage and can fast connect to VPN connect VPN is very easy when you download and clean storage that is not good
★☆☆☆☆DuckDuckGo IsMuchBetter· Sep 30, 2026
💫💫 👉 (RE-EDITED) Proton VPN INTENTIONALLY displays your TRUE IP ADDRESS on the splash screen to SCREENGRABBED MALWARE EVERY time you reconnect the VPN! I think Proton may have a government agent in their development team, because why else would they do that? They added this privacy destroying IP animation ~2 years ago, which they never had b4, & it serves NO practical purpose. They REFUSE to remove the IP animation! PROTON VPN CANNOT BE TRUSTED!
