# Using Cliproxy on Android

1. Connect to a Wi-Fi network\*\*:
   1. Open the device's **Settings**.
   2. Go to **Wi-Fi** settings and select the Wi-Fi network for which you want to configure a proxy.
2. **Configure a proxy**:
   1. In Wi-Fi network settings, tap **Connected network** (network name).
   2. Tap **Modify network** or **Advanced settings** (the specific options vary depending on the Android version).
   3. Enable **Proxy** settings, which usually have three options:
      1. **None**: Do not use a proxy (default).
      2. **Manual**: Manually configure the proxy server.
      3. **Automatic**: Set via the automatic proxy configuration file (PAC).
3. **Enter proxy details**:
   1. If you selected **Manual**, enter the IP address and port of the proxy server (for example, SOCKS5 or HTTP proxy).
   2. For a SOCKS5 proxy, make sure SOCKS5 is selected in Proxy type.
   3. If the proxy requires authentication, enter the proxy username and password.
4. **Save settings**:
   1. 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.
