iOS

This guide covers how to set up a proxy on Wi-Fi for iPhone and iPad.

Requirements

Before getting started, ensure that:

• No other VPN or proxies are active.

• You have your GoProxies endpoint ready, e.g. proxy.goproxies.com:1080

• Your GoProxies subuser (also called API User) username and password.

Wi-Fi Setup

This method only works with browsers. Apps won't route through the proxy this way. iOS also only supports HTTP proxies on Wi-Fi.

1. Make sure you're connected to a Wi-Fi network and open Settings.

2. Tap Wi-Fi and select your connected network.

3. Scroll down to the HTTP Proxy section and tap Configure Proxy.

4. Switch to Manual.

5. Fill in the following:

   • Server: proxy.goproxies.com

   • Port: 1080

6. Enable Authentication and enter your credentials:

   • Username: customer-your_username_here

   • Password: your proxy password

If you're using IP whitelisting, you can skip the authentication step entirely.

1. Tap Save.

2. If a pop-up appears asking for credentials, tap Settings and re-enter your proxy authentication details.

Verify the Connection

Open a browser and go to ip.goproxies.com. If the IP shown reflects your proxy location, you're all set.

Disable the Proxy

To turn the proxy off, go back to Configure Proxy, select Off, and tap Save.
