I know that if you want to get around geoblocking content, normally you just use a VPN from the location you need.

Now I am using a streaming app on Android from a tv program of my home country, they implemented geoblocking already long ago on their website but now the app is also going the same way. Much of the content is blocked now.

Is there an simple way I can have a VPN connection open just for this app on my phone? Or are there other ways to fool the app into thinking its in the right location?

It's called split tunnel. You can choose which apps go through the von and which ones don't.
