Hi u/stevie_joe20! Thank you for sharing your suggestions with us regarding Apple TV support and Smart DNS. We have received these feature requests before and we’ll be adding your vote to them as well. However, we cannot provide you with a specific timeframe on when this might get implemented. We’d be happy to relay any additional feedback you may have about any of our services internally. We always value our community’s input in shaping and improving our services going forward.
TVOS 17 is coming out soon and is expected to have local DNS support. I hope Proton VPN is ready for it. Other VPNs are already working on an app for the next TVOS 17
It’s been awhile now, any solutions with Proton VPN on a Apple TV!
P.S. ProtonVPN needs to remove there reference article from there site since this misleading like click bait.
In the meantime I’m using r/passepartout . It has a limited (4 hrs) free version to try. But you can add any VPN profile. I use Proton Wireguard and didn’t have any issues yet.
Still nothing from Proton team. Most of the big names like Express, Nord didn’t come out with an ATV app for some reason. VPN on Apple devices works differently somehow if I remember correctly. I’m sure they are working on it.
I’m using “VPN Client Bee” app in the mean time. You can use any VPN provider by uploading it’s WireGuard / OpenVPN config file locally to ATV from any computer connected to the same LAN as ATV.
It’s free to use the app this way. Please note I DO NOT endorse the BEE VPN in anyway. And cannot confirm if it’s secure to use ProtonVPN this way. But it works for me now.
I’m hoping more app like this or official WireGuard app comes to ATV soon.
