Split tunneling

This feature lets you choose which apps go through the VPN and which connect directly via your regular internet. It is handy when you want the VPN only for specific services (e.g. YouTube or Instagram) while keeping high speed and access to local services (banking, food delivery) without the VPN.

Happ

Setup in Happ

Rule-based routing

Note: on iOS, system limitations don't allow picking apps as easily as on Android. In Happ this is done via routing rules (Routing).

  • Go to Settings inside the Happ app.
  • Find the Routing section.
  • Select Rule Mode instead of Global Mode.
  • You can add your own domain rules or use preset rule sets.
  • If you want everything through the VPN except certain sites, use the Bypass LAN and Mainland mode.

Benefits of split tunneling

Access to local services

Banking apps and government services often block access from foreign IPs. Split tunneling lets them work directly.

Saving resources

Traffic from heavy apps (games, cloud storage) can bypass the VPN to reduce CPU load and save battery.
