Split Tunneling - Make selected apps or IP's VPN-only
When using split tunneling you are able to select which apps or IP's you want to be routed through the VPN. Would it be possible to to also make the selected apps or IP's only work through VPN? This way if the VPN goes down these apps would blocked but you wouldn't need to kill all internet traffic. This is a feature that Private Internet Access has.

Hello, I would like to suggest that in addition to the current split tunneling feature, users could also select some apps to get no internet access at all. This is useful for certain apps that don't necessarily need internet, but may try to transfer data on you anyway, even in the background. I have some apps like this where data only needs to stay on my phone, but it has lots of traffic being sent about location and otherwise to their servers. There are apps that allow you to do this for individual applications (e.g. TrackerControl on FDroid), but they have to act as a VPN that does split tunneling, and I would still like to use ProtonVPN.
