Not sure I understand the question. A key can be used on Web as well as on the mobile apps now, instead of TOTP (which however cannot be yet disabled). It is generally advised to have a multiple key pair, incase one is lost / defect.

Hi everyone,
After Apple made it possible to support VPNs on Apple TV, you’ve made it clear that you would like to see support for Proton VPN.
After announcing that it would be available this summer and publishing the source code in September, it took a bit of time to get through Apple’s review process, but we’re happy to share that it is now available!
With Apple TV and Proton VPN, you can now stream your favorite shows, films, and sporting events on your big-screen TV in full 4K from over 100 servers via your Apple TV, no matter where you are: protonvpn.com/download-appletv
Proton VPN is now available on tvOS!
See our streaming guide for more information: https://protonvpn.com/support/streaming-guide/
Proton VPN is now available across the Apple ecosystem on iOS, macOS, iPadOS, Apple Vision Pro, and tvOS. Let us know what you think!

Hi everyone,
Based on your feedback, we're happy to share that you can now sync aliases between Proton Pass and SimpleLogin.
This feature is rolling out now and will be available for everyone soon. ⏰
Here's how it works:
- Tap the 'sync aliases' button in Proton Pass
- Choose which vault to sync aliases to
- Aliases will continue to sync, and disabled aliases will be reflected in Proton Pass and SimpleLogin
What’s next?
Soon, you’ll be able to manage custom domains and additional mailboxes, as well as send emails from Proton Pass hide-my-email aliases.
Let us know what you think.

Security
With the global community reviewing and improving our code, we benefit from innovative new security practices as soon as they’re available.
Trust
Don’t just take our word for it—you can inspect our apps yourself and see that your privacy is built-in by design.
We invite developers, security experts, and privacy advocates to explore, review, and contribute to our code on GitHub:

Hi everyone,
Today, we’re adding one of the most requested features for desktop:
🔄Now you can switch between your Proton accounts from the Proton Mail desktop app, and stay logged in to all of them the entire time.
Available for Windows, macOS, and Linux: https://proton.me/mail/download

from the team:
Hi everyone,
To better streamline communication for organizations relying on Proton Mail, we’re adding a new feature: Groups.
Create a group for a department or team in your organization, and assign its own dedicated email address. It then works as a distribution list, allowing everyone to reach all group members, all protected by end-to-end encryption.
For example, a group address for your customer care or HR team allows all inquiries directed to them to be seen by the entire team, eliminating the need for a shared email account.
Groups can also include addresses outside of your organization, such as customers, contractors, and agencies. However, in order to retain end-to-end encryption, external collaborators would need to use Proton Mail, too.
Unlike contact groups, already available in Proton Mail, Group addresses are better suited for organizations:
⭕ they are centrally managed and automatically available across the entire organization
🗓️ they remain valid even as team members change
The feature is rolling out progressively to users on Proton Mail Professional, Proton Business, and Visionary plans.
Once available, you can get started by going to Settings > Organization > Groups on the web.

There is a reason this works and why another provider with static portfowarding removed portforwarding :)
Regarding password managers:
All password managers keep data unencrypted in memory. You can't encrypt the data in memory because then the application cannot use the data while it is running. It's an universal issue for password managers, and not something that can be fixed.
While you can obfuscate the data, this is really security theater, because it is trivial to reverse engineer the obfuscation. In the future, Proton Pass may also obfuscate, but it doesn't actually add any security.
If you enable PIN lock, the data is encrypted locally and cleared from memory when the PIN lock is activated. The security benefit of this in the case of a compromised device is likely marginal, as malware on a device would be able to key log the pin and bypass it in that manner. However, PIN lock can be desirable on a shared device (although somebody with access to the shared device could also install a keylogger...).
In the previous version of Proton Pass, after the PIN lock, it can take up to 30 minutes to clear data from memory, while the new version clears it immediately. It was previously immediate, but a code regression set it back to up to 30 minutes, but this has now been fixed. In general, for the reasons previously explained, we would not advise people to rely upon the PIN to secure against malware or shared devices, and that's why PIN is not enabled by default, as the security benefit is likely marginal.
By the way, to even take advantage of this, somebody would need to have access to the device and the ability to access the device memory, in which case the PIN is not going to be effective because the device is already compromised. Unfortunately protecting against this type of device compromise is beyond the scope of Proton Pass (or any other password manager).
Yes, as long as you''re not above the Duo plan limitations (e.g storage or custom domains)
For those asking about Stealth on Linux, quote from the team:
With Wireguard for Linux about to come out of beta and we are planning to bring Stealth to Linux as well.
Teams answer:
Our business audience was the most interested in a writing assistant, this is why we started gradually rolling it out starting with Business and Visionary plans. We will look into making it available to more users at a later date!
The team states the following regarding Firefox:
Support for running language models locally is currently only available in the Firefox Nightly builds. In our testing with Firefox, we haven’t been able to get Proton Scribe to run reliably on a variety of devices. We will see how the situation evolves before adding support.
Just a note to add, this is just the re-confirmation of this year, the two previous years they have had no-logs policy audits as well :)
There is also this support article explaining the link security:
Just to answer here in the thread also, as answered on reddit:
IKEv2 has been discontinued on iOS for security reasons:
https://protonvpn.com/support/discontinuing-ikev2-openvpn-macos-ios/
You'll have to use an app, whether that is the Proton VPN app, Open VPN app, WireGuard app or something like Passepartout.
The OpenVPN app works with the OpenVPN protocol and thus with the OpenVPN configuration files.
The WireGuard app works with WireGuard configuration files.
Passepartout works with both, OpenVPN and WireGuard configuration files.
