How to set up a proxy on your smartphone with Super Proxy
If you use apps like Telegram and want to work with multiple accounts, you'll need a proxy. Proxies change your IP address and make it seem like you're using multiple devices at the same time. If on a PC there are a lot of ways to set up a proxy, on a smartphone there are two: manually in the settings and through special applications. In the article we will give instructions on how to prescribe a proxy for a smartphone and quickly switch between them. This is a mast-head for those who use proxies on the phone.
How to connect proxy on your phone
As said, there are two easy ways to set up a proxy on your smartphone. Here are their features:
- Manually setting up a proxy server. Proxies can be prescribed in the Wi-Fi settings, but it's inconvenient. And if you plan to switch them, it's five times more inconvenient. You'll have to go to the settings every time, delete the old data and prescribe new ones.
- Proxy through the app. This is much easier! Here you can create profiles, prescribe proxies with all parameters, run them and switch them in a couple of clicks.
As you can see, it is easier to work with proxies on a smartphone through a special application. We will tell you about Super Proxy. It has two ironclad advantages: simplicity and free access.
