The following guide showcases a setup for Oxylabs Residential, Mobile, and Datacenter Proxies with Shadowrocket. Shadowrocket allows you to customize proxies and their effects on your connectivity through cellular and Wi-Fi, including importing/exporting rules.
Shadowrocket is a freeware encryption protocol app for secure and anonymous online browsing. The app captures HTTP(S)/TCP traffic from any application on your Android device and redirects it to a proxy. You can set up and group multiple proxies according to location and session preferences.
Search for Shadowrocket on Google Play, download the app, and install it.
Once set up, select (➕) > Type manually > Socks.
Navigating to proxy setup
NOTE: Shadowrocket supports SOCKS proxies only
2. Specify the following proxy details:
Address: pr.oxylabs.io
Port: 7777
You can also use country-specific entries. For example, entering es-pr.oxylabs.io under address and 10000 under port will acquire a Spanish exit node. Please refer to our documentation for a complete list of country-specific entry nodes or if you need a sticky session.
Address: a specific IP address (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.
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.
Address: dc.oxylabs.io
Port: 8001
For the Pay-per-IP subscription, the port is the sequential number assigned to an IP address from the given list. Thus, port 8001 uses the first IP address from your list. For more details, check our documentation.
For the Pay-per-traffic subscription, port 8001 picks a random IP address but stays consistent during a session. You can also specify geo-location, for example, the US, within the user authentication string: user-USERNAME-country-US:PASSWORD. Check our documentation for more details.
Address: isp.oxylabs.io
Port: 8001
3. Enter your Oxylabs proxy user’s credentials. Use the same Username and Password you entered to create a new proxy user in the Oxylabs dashboard.
Configuring and testing a proxy
4. After confirming your proxy setup, select the paper plane icon to connect to a proxy. Make sure the connection is successful, and you see a confirmation showing latency (ms).
You are all set. All of your internet traffic is now rerouted through a proxy server.
