Split tunneling: you choose the route for every site
Not every site needs the VPN, and some must never open without it. CloakyVPN gives you two simple lists, and handles the rest automatically.
Sites that go direct
Local banks, streaming in your own country or your work network can go straight to your normal internet, even while you are connected. They stay fast and never see the VPN's address.
Sensitive sites, VPN only
Sites on this list only ever open through the VPN. If the VPN is down, they do not open at all, and the app tells you. The block lives in the system firewall, so it holds even with the app closed.
One line per domain
Paste whole lists at once. A domain covers all its subdomains, and address ranges work too.
Or send everything through
Turn on Everything through the VPN in Security, and the direct list is ignored: no site, call or video call goes around the server.
Questions
What is split tunneling?
It lets some traffic go through the VPN and some go directly, so you choose what is protected and what stays on your normal connection.
Does a domain include its subdomains?
Yes. example.com covers mail.example.com, www.example.com and every other subdomain.
What happens to sites on neither list?
They pick the best path automatically.
