- Open the “Wi-Fi” section.
2. Go to advanced settings of the connected Wi-Fi network
- Tap the arrow next to the Wi-Fi network you’re connected to.

3. Configure the proxy
- Scroll down the menu and find “Proxy”.

4. Enter proxy details
- In the “Hostname” field, enter the IP address of the proxy server.

Important to know:
- Android does not support SOCKS5 proxy at the system Wi-Fi settings level.
- This works only in apps that support standard HTTP(s) proxy, such as Chrome, Firefox.
- Some apps (such as Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, messengers) may ignore system proxy settings or may not work with authenticated proxies.
If you need all traffic from the entire device to go through a different IP, we recommend our VPN solutions.
