Has nothing to do with the phone.. they're all using android as an OS. It's the app that decides whether it's going to allow you to connect thru the proxy, or just use your regular WiFi connection. Majority apps won't go thru the proxy for security reasons.Can confirm this works in Nexus 5, Galaxy S8+....
If you put the proxy in, and it doesn't ask for authentication while connecting to the app.. which it doesn't, then you're not connecting thru the proxy.. it's just using your WiFi connection. It's impossible to connect to a proxy that requires authentication without putting in the user/pw.
It only takes a few minutes to research the topic and see that it won't connect to the app using the proxy, as I said yesterday I sat there researching this for a couple days because I wanted to do just that. There is a way to get an app that normally won't connect thru the proxy to use the proxy, but it doesn't just automatically do it. It doesn't really make sense me explaining it any further, because you're going to think what you want to anyway.

It doesn't ask you to authenticate while connecting to ig or fb when using a proxy.. I've been there and done that. I don't get what you mean by you won't have access to Internet on ig?
As long as I dont auth (the proxy) using the browser, IG says I do not have access to internet.

So if you're not authorizing it, how are you connecting to the app? It would have to be authorized in order for you to connect to the server.
