Downloading Shadowrocket

To install Shadowrocket, simply go to App Store and download the app to your iOS device.

Shadowrocket setup with proxies

1. Add server. 

To use our proxies with Shadowrocket, first, open the Shadowrocket application and then click on Add Server.

In the following window, click on Type.

Choose a Type (read on for details on proxy types) and go back to the previous screen.

2. Enter proxy and authentication information. 

Residential and Mobile Proxies

Type: HTTP or HTTPS

Address: pr.oxylabs.io

Port: 7777

You can also use country-specific entries. For example, entering us-pr.oxylabs.io under Proxy IP and 10000 under Proxy port will acquire a US exit node. Please refer to our documentation for a complete list of country-specific entry nodes or if you need a sticky session.

Shared Datacenter Proxies

Type: HTTP

Address: dc.pr.oxylabs.io

Port: 10000 

You can also use a country-specific entry. For example, entering dc.fr-pr.oxylabs.io under Proxy IP and 42000 under Proxy port will acquire a French exit node. Please refer to our documentation for a complete list of country-specific entry nodes.

Enterprise Dedicated Datacenter Proxies

Type: HTTP or SOCKS5

Address: a specific IP address (e.g., 1.2.3.4)

Port: 60000

For Enterprise Dedicated Datacenter Proxies, you’ll have to choose an IP address from the acquired list. Visit our documentation for more details.

Self-Service Dedicated Datacenter Proxies

Type: HTTP or HTTPS

Address: ddc.oxylabs.io

Port: 8001

For Self-Service Dedicated Datacenter Proxies, the port indicates the sequential number of an IP address from the acquired list. Check our documentation for more details.

No matter the proxy type, don’t forget to type in your Oxylabs proxy user's credentials under User and Password. Once you are done, go back to the previous screen by pressing the back arrow. 

NOTE: For additional Oxylabs proxy customization options – such as country-specific entry points – refer to Shared Datacenter and Residential Proxies documentations, respectively.

3. Turn on the proxy.

After filling out the proxy details, you will be able to turn on the proxy. To do that, activate a toggle under Not Connected.

If that is your first time using Shadowrocket, you will get an iOS prompt to add Shadowrocket to your VPN configurations and then install the VPN profile. Click Add and then OK. You will need to enter your iPhone passcode to confirm.

And that is it. The toggle at the top of the app should now be activated.

4. Test your proxy.

You can easily test if the proxy is working by visiting ip.oxylabs.io.
