How to set up a proxy on Android without root

A proxy server allows you to remain anonymous on the web, change your IP address and location, work with a large number of social media accounts, and bypass any blocking. Setting up a proxy on Android without root seems like a daunting task, but we will prove that it is not. You can easily do this using the Wi-Fi settings or special applications.

What are Root rights?

Root rights on Android give access to advanced phone settings, and allow to delete or edit system data, including setting a proxy server on a mobile device. But there are also disadvantages: the phone may malfunction or an inept user with root access will accidentally delete important files. Therefore, we will show you how to set up a proxy server without root so as not to harm your device.
