I have installed proton vpn extension on my android browser. When I click links outside browser to launch in browser, links open before vpn extension connects. As it take 3 secs for extension to connect. Is there a way to make sure data is not sent before extension connects.
Enable Kill switch: https://protonvpn.com/support/what-is-kill-switch/#android
You might want to turn on a kill switch or something similar that stops all links until the VPN is fully set up. That way, before the app starts working, no data is sent.
If the ProtonVPN app options have a “always-on VPN” or “kill switch” function, you can try turning it on. Any data will be blocked until the VPN is fully linked.
I’m talking about browser extension.
Proton app has that option but extension doesn’t. I was wondering if extension can do that so I don’t have to use full vpn.
The browser extension doesn’t have a standalone kill switch feature at this time.
I don’t want to use full vpn app. As a free user I can not use split tunneling and I only want to use it for browser.
Please add kill switch feature to extension if possible. It will be really helpful
