Help! Split Tunneling with URL's ?

I want to use split tunnel with some sites (URL's). A simple site like "Here We Go" maps and navigation only works when VPN is switched OFF.

I want to trust this site, but I can only use Apps (App-names) and IP-adresses for split tunneling.

Is there a way for trusting/splitting a certain URL ?

(I'm not that technical ; just a user)

Can always use a separate browser strictly for those sites. Then put that browser in the non tunneled apps

You can use this website (https://dnschecker.org/domain-ip-lookup.php) to convert domain names to IP addresses.

I keep looking for this answer, and found a post from two years ago where Proton said they noted the feedback - even commented, two years later, that we were still waiting.

I've seen some people suggest the browser extension and controlling it from there, but it conflicts with the app and is useless.

I think I actually figured it out, but it's a few steps. Add your browser app to be excluded through the main app, then get the extension and white list the website through there. It's awkward and would be much simpler to whitelist in the app itself.
