- Rated 1 out of 5by Dragon56, 11 days ago(После установки требует обновить его. ) Я немного некорректно / неправильно выразился данный впн просто не может подключится выдавая вот это при его открытии - NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource. Ну в любом сучили он не работает в России из за агрессивных блокировок.

posted 9 days agoWe're sorry to see that you're dissatisfied. Could you clarify your review further? What are the exact steps you're taking that lead to the behavior? Are you receiving any error messages? Contact us by clicking on Help in the Proton VPN extension, then selecting 'Contact us' so we can assist you.
On another note, keep in mind that Russia is among the restrictive countries that are blocking VPN connections. Our teams are working to resolve the issue, but the restrictions are especially aggressive. For now, we suggest using the Quick connect option to try and establish a connection. Also, make sure that your browser and the Proton VPN extension are always up to date. - Rated 1 out of 5by Davide Briani, 18 days ago
- Rated 1 out of 5by Mopikot, a month agorequires REGISTRATION! no guest use!
it is a complete nonsense as your web site with registration is BLOCKED in my country.
So it is totally unusable in any way .... Unless you install another VPN to register your VPN, are you sure that is a journey for best experience??
Silly that android app allows quest login.Developer response

Lastly, we've documented your feedback regarding guest login for the extension for future consideration. You can follow our blog (protonvpn.com/blog) and our direct channels for any news and updates. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 18179602, a month agoAs others already pointed out, the extension disconnects, especially after long waits, and doesn't repair the connection by itself. Resulting in not loading/blank pages. I'm ready to get the "It's your fault, our extension is perfect do you have different DNS" template from the 1st level support without any product knowledge.

It regularly disconnects so pages won't load, as in, very frequently, making it extremely annoying to use...

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17603376, 2 months agoTotally unreliable. Icon on app in tool bar often shows wrong status. Often hangs. Blocks after suspend and have to turn extension off then on again. As bad as Proton's Linux VPN app, wish I wasn't a paying customer.

posted 3 months agoThe browser extension is currently not officially supported on Firefox for Android, however, we will work on a mobile-friendly version in the future. In the meantime, you can download the native Proton VPN app at protonvpn.com/download-android. - Rated 1 out of 5by Jean-Jacques TAKAMURA, 3 months agoExtension has been extremely reliable for me over the years but over the past couple weeks the experience has really gone downhill, the VPN doesn't auto-connect on browser start, it loses connection very often and does not connect to a new server, and it often fails, outright saying I need to re-install the extension, which I have done a couple times now, to no avail. Not sure what they are cooking but I can't say I'd recommend the extension right, I will be sure to update my rating should this be a temporary spell.

That said, if you have the opportunity to install our native Proton VPN app or connect through the manual setup methods, we'd suggest doing so as an alternative. - Rated 1 out of 5by Александр, 3 months agoДля начала работы VPN надо войти в аккаунт, а при попытке войти в аккаунт выдаёт ошибку: "При соединении с account.proton.me произошла ошибка.

For whatever reason it always selects the Netherlands, which is extremely slow here.
Being able to pre-select the country is a must, I think.Developer response
posted 4 months agoThe default auto-connect option will connect you to the fastest available server for you. This leads to better load balancing and higher speed, which is a priority for free users. That said, if you wish to connect to a specific server of your choice, you may consider upgrading your plan. On another note, you can learn more about improving your connection speeds at protonvpn.com/support/increase-vpn-speeds. - Rated 1 out of 5by tron34, 4 months ago
