Split Tunneling (Routing)

Routing allows you to decide when to route your traffic through the doxx.net network, and when to temporarily suspend it.

The strictest websites/apps will perform an IP lookup when you try to connect and ban certain IP origins. If none of the Covert Networking settings helped, Routing is the last resort.

1.How to set up

iOS and macOS

On iOS and macOS, the only routing option is Comms only. It sends your traffic over the public internet but keeps your P2P E2EE Comms connections open.

To turn on Routing in the iOS app navigate to: Account → Settings ⚙ → Connection Settings → Routing.

Android

The doxx.net Android app offers split tunneling. You can decide which apps route through the doxx.net network and which stay on the public internet.

To turn on Routing in the Android app navigate to: Account → Settings ⚙ → Connection Settings → Routing.

2.Common questions

Which Android apps commonly don't work with doxx.net?

Android Auto is the most common. Its maps stop working when it sees traffic from a non-personal IP address. Exclude Android Auto with split tunneling and keep the rest of your traffic protected.
