How to integrate the Proxy Manager with third party apps?

The Proxy Manager is an Open-Source project that can be installed in various environments and used as a proxy server in any application.

Below are a few examples for which Proxy Manager can be used as the proxy server inside third party applications.

Most of the third party apps require ip:port:username:password format. When you integrate the Proxy Manager with any third party app there is no need for username and password and it is ok to leave username:password empty as each port in the Proxy Manager keeps the credentials of the used zone in it.

Example for port 24000: IP:PORT:USERNAME:PASSWORD → 127.0.0.1:24000:[empty]:[empty]

2. Proxy Manager port must whitelist the IP of the Android device
3. Go to the WiFi network configuration -> advanced -> manual proxy:
   • Proxy host: The IPV4 address of the machine with the Proxy Manager($ipconfig / for mac: $ifconfig)
