split tunneling for domain name
Current split tunneling allows IP address and application. The IP address is an unreliable way to open a bypass to an external website.
Please add the ability to split tunnel to a domain name. This would help with various sites that block VPN Server IP addresses.

Upvoting this, it would be really useful to exclude domains and subdomains from using Proton VPN. Some apps don't play well with VPNs at all so I need to disconnect my VPN entirely if I want to use them.

i've asked the same thing on github for linux. use protonVpn with microsoft365 & others apps is really awfull.
i'm fed up to be blocked when i want to connect to these web app.
impossible to use protonVpn as a "multi-task"vpn -

This is really needed ans also provided by other vpns so it should be not a problem for Proton. As other user mentioned it is very complicated to get domains IP(s) and add them here separately

This would be super, extremely helpful. I would like to whitelist my own website, and a few specific websites, but since they're not my sites, I don't know their IPs. Please consider allowing websites in addition to IP to be excluded.
Just like JG said, I'm a member of a forum, and I have to keep doing cloudflare human validations every few pages with the VPN active, and I trust them enough to exclude them via split tunneling.

I agree that this would be helpful. IP adresses can change. There would still be a DNS call, which couldn't be helped, but for sites which aren't mission critical, excluding by domain would be sufficient. For example, my local credit union sometimes blocks access if it detects I'm connecting via VPN. Adding an exclusion by domain would be easier than adding by IP address.
