I use Pixel on GOS but i welcome any other apps that can help achieve this.

Background: I have a smart home system that i can use my phone to lock/unlock doors, turning lights on/off...etc. This app can be accessed via house wifi and 5G.

Problem: sometimes theres a lag when the phone switches from 5G to wifi, or vice versa. This would mean that the commands are "stopped" until we have stable signals. Eg. pressing open door would not open, i have to press open door again.

I would like to setup so that this smart home app is always on 5G. The rest of the apps can run 5G or wifi..

I remember on old Galaxy phones, you can do that. But is there an app?

Rethink DNS can be setup to have rules per app and I think it can do this.

Can confirm, I use Rethink for this. I'll add that it is the only way I've found, and GOS specifically does not implement this feature.
