posted 2 days agoUnfortunately, 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 default 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 Krish, 3 days agothe only reason why I downloaded this was to have a free vpn which can change my location. you have to pay money to select which country server you use.
Developer response
posted 3 days agoThe default Quick 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. To connect to a server in a specific country of your choice, you may consider upgrading your plan. - Rated 1 out of 5by sushigal007, 13 days agoMaybe it's because I'm on the Windows 7 ESR version of Firefox, but this addon just doesn't work for me at all, clicking on it just gives me a "NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource" message. A pity because I have the standalone program and the android app and love them both, but sometimes I just want to use a VPN for a couple of websites rather than for all my internet traffic.

Замкнутый круг, бесполезная трата времени и сил

- Rated 1 out of 5by Dragon56, a month 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.

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, 2 months agoVisionary subscribere here. Works really bad. The add-on is clearly abandoned.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Mopikot, 2 months 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

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.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 17603376, 3 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 4 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 Jojo, 4 months ago
