One of the options here would be to configure a Per-App VPN and configure the apps that you do want claim traffic for with a MDM profile. See more on this here. The other option would be to attempt to configure the Packet Tunnel by per-destination IP so that the destination of the traffic from the desired apps is routed through your tunnel. Then, all of the rest of the device traffic is not routed through the tunnel.
