Using Cliproxy on Android
Android provides a way to configure a proxy through Wi-Fi settings, which can be used to configure a proxy for a specific network.
Configure HTTP or SOCKS5 proxy (Wi-Fi network)
- Connect to a Wi-Fi network**: - Open the device's Settings. 
- Go to Wi-Fi settings and select the Wi-Fi network for which you want to configure a proxy. 
 
- Configure a proxy: - In Wi-Fi network settings, tap Connected network (network name). 
- Tap Modify network or Advanced settings (the specific options vary depending on the Android version). 
- Enable Proxy settings, which usually have three options: - None: Do not use a proxy (default). 
- Manual: Manually configure the proxy server. 
- Automatic: Set via the automatic proxy configuration file (PAC). 
 
 
- Enter proxy details: - If you selected Manual, enter the IP address and port of the proxy server (for example, SOCKS5 or HTTP proxy). 
- For a SOCKS5 proxy, make sure SOCKS5 is selected in Proxy type. 
- If the proxy requires authentication, enter the proxy username and password. 
 
- Save settings: - When you are finished, tap Save and the network connection will forward traffic through the specified proxy server. 
 
Notes on configuring proxies:
- In Android, only networks connected via Wi-Fi can be configured with proxies. Mobile data connections (such as 4G or 5G) generally do not have proxies configured directly in system settings. 
- Some Android apps (such as browsers or other apps) may provide independent proxy settings.
