Proton VPN

I’ve been using proton mail and vpn for years. Now my vpn seems like it’s pay to use. I’ve never had any problems in the
past so I hope someone can help me.

Excellent product

This VPN is robust and stays out of your way. Connections are always good. Not the same can be said of ExpressVPN, which many
people like for some reason. I’ve used that for three years and this for 1.5 years - this is far, far better.

Really great but….

So, this is one of the best vps I’ve ever used but I can’t watch anything on Apple TV the past few weeks. I called Apple but
they said it was due to my vpn.

The VPN

It's a magnificent application, everything you get for free is incredible, its plans are incredible, and the paid ones even more

Works great

Just installed the paid version today. Easy to use and no problems. It is fast enough for all my needs. Had Nord and it was
horrible, very slow and wouldn’t connect. I have no problems with Proton.

Amazing product

Thank you proton for giving customers so much value for their dollar. All your apps available for a respectable price is such a
relief in a world where companies just wanna exploit their users.

Excellent App

It’s an excellent app and works very well, VPN servers are very fast. However what would made it a 5 star app would be widgets
so I can switch between my profiles quickly!

Excellent

I've been using Proton VPN and Proton Mail on all my devices, and it's been fantastic. The fact that it's based in Switzerland,
known for its security, makes me feel safe. The support team is outstanding - always quick and helpful. Highly recommended!

So far, so GREAT😀😀

This VPN was rated Best Out of 10 on Google. There are countless servers to choose from in every major city in just about every
country. They stop ads and trackers in their tracks, saving on data. Easy to use, I STRONGLY recommend this one.👍🏻 And yeah,
pay for it. You get what you pay for…

Works great, sophisticated UI/UX, uncompromising p

Best VPN for the money in my experience. And you can’t find a more trustworthy company than Proton to provide your VPN. App
looks and works great. Occasionally an app or a website will not work quite right when the VPN is on but I’ve found that to be
the exception and not the rule.

Saved me while on vacation

Overall have had a very good experience. I’m an Unlimited user so the VPN was included. I didn’t expect to need it, but while
on vacation abroad we needed access to our banking account which required a USA up address. Was super easy to connect via proton
vpn!

VPN. Learn about your purchase before buying.

countries we use daily easily.

Great company with a great purpose and a phenomena

There’s no reason to look further for a VPN. This is an industry leader, but more importantly, they have an important mission in
relation to security and privacy. You couldn’t support a better cause by purchasing their product.

Good, but needs a widget to easily control connections and view status. PIA has this feature and no reason Proton cannot do it;
otherwise effective and fast.

Fantastic

I've been using proton VPN as a paid user for about a year now and it's great. Connects really fast and there's a huge number of
countries to select from and often cities within those countries. The latest version added stealth protocol and that is even
better.

I love everything about the way this VPN functions. The settings, functionality, it all works for me. I found using it to be both
intuitive and reassuring. After being a customer of this company for three years, I can say that I trust their products.

fastest within a state/exclude states settings wou

would be nice to include preferences to exclude certain states from random or fastest (or ever to be used at all) and to have a
setting to pick the fastest server within a selected state.

Please put Netherlands back on free version. VERY important for crypto trading as many exchanges block you on a US IP.

Ok with annoying feature and unstable connetion

The connection dies of and needs to be reconnected manually for some mysterious reason and without any notification.
The widget doesn’t work.
Logs off for no reason or warning and requires signing in again at annoying times.
When it works, it’s an ok vpn.

Great when it works

As of the last major update, quick connect directly connects you to the first country/server on the list that is based on
alphabetical order. Please fix as connecting to Argentina every time is not ideal for a quick connect feature.

Good…not Great

Aside from the security that is touted which I have no issues with, I try to watch some YouTube TV with this app . It has been
with mixed results.
More often than not, I’m greeted with “traveling outside of the US?”

Some connection failure problems

The interface of this application is great! But I can't connect to the network when using it on iOS. It's very unreasonable. If I
use it on Microsoft system, it will be disconnected after using it for a period of time. I hope you can improve it.

Doesn’t Work Like It Use To

Before the big revamp of the app I use to be able to watch videos on YouTube without seeing any ads, but after the update it seems
that this feature doesn’t work anymore and is locked behind a pay wall. One minute it was fine then the next I completely loose
a feature.

Great, but needs all Taskmasters, such as NZ

I read that it was all things taskmaster when I subscribed so I thought these were already included, user error on my part but
still a little frustrating as I've already watched all of the UK ones since they’re the only uncensored ones on youtube
