Mobile Proxies won't work on..... well mobile

[PermanentRecord2022]

Hey guys,

I have used proxies (both residential and mobile before) so I have some experience.

However, the new proxy provider I am using I cannot get their mobile proxies to work correctly, on mobile.

They work on a multi login browser just fine, but not on I-phone.

Do I-phone mobile proxies need anything special done to them to make them work? I am using Potatso and neither SOCKS5 nor HTTPS seem to work.

There is also an option for "TCP Tunell Connection". Does that have any bearing?

Thank You

One word: Shadowrocket on the App store. You need this app. It comes for $2.99
It will help you configure HTTP, HTTPS and Socks proxy on iPhone

That worked! All of my proxies trigger this on Pixelscan. I have just been using them anyway (IG, TikTok, Dating Apps). I have no idea why they all trigger this. Would you have an idea of what settings to check?

I tried using the IP address location and making it match the "GEO" location as close as possible. I usually leave the anti-detect browser set to "fill automatically" for this. But I'm not sure what else could be triggering this, I have checked everything I can think of.

All of my proxies (RES + Mobile on Desktop + Iphone) do this, so it's either switch from AstroProxy or I have a setting wrong somewhere.

Sorry the image is so big.... hahaha.

1. Have you installed and paid for Shadow Rocket?

2. If yes, and still you are getting this issue, it seems like the issue is with your proxy provider.

3. The three most used protocols are HTTP, HTTPS and Socks. My personal favorite is HTTPS. Use that.

Thank you for the acknowledgement. I try to do better. Yes, Sure thing. Shadow Rocket is a great app when it comes to configuring proxies in iPhone

1. Yes
2. Okay thank you I will check into my proxy provider
3. Noted! I will try HTTPS over SOCKS5 as well

Just FYI for anyone else reading this, as well as ristoriel.

I ran a test of Pixelscan using.

1. My personal Phone + HTTPS proxy
2. My personal Phone + SOCKS 5 proxy
3. My personal Phone + my global data package (Europe)
4. My personal Phone + VPN

In all 4 cases Pixelscan still gave me the error of "error checking proxy usage". If I go to "IP info" it says "WebRTC Public IP" and "Proxy Detection Yes"

I am shocked, because in test #3 I am using an actual data plan, not a burner marketing phone. Not sure what "proxy" it is detecting I should have passed all tests as "green".
