Manual Configuration (for Wi-Fi networks)

1. Open the “Settings” app on your Android device.
2. Tap on “Wi-Fi”.
3. Long-press on the Wi-Fi network you’re connected to.
4. Select “Modify network” or “Manage network settings”.

   • Username: Your Evomi username
   • Password: Your Evomi password followed by _session-anychars_mode-speed
9. Tap “Save” to apply the settings.

Using a VPN App

For more flexibility and to apply proxy settings system-wide, you can use a VPN app that supports custom proxy configurations.

1. Download a VPN app that supports custom proxy settings, such as OpenVPN for Android or ProtonVPN from the Google Play Store.

   • Protocol: Select HTTP, HTTPS, or SOCKS5 as needed
   • Username: Your Evomi username
   • Password: Your Evomi password followed by _session-anychars_mode-speed
4. Save the configuration and connect when you want to use the Evomi proxy.

Using a Dedicated Proxy App

There are also apps specifically designed for managing proxy connections on Android:

1. Install a proxy manager app like “Proxy Settings” or “Drony” from the Google Play Store.
2. Open the app and add a new proxy configuration.
3. Enter the Evomi proxy details:
   • Host: The Evomi proxy address (e.g., rp.evomi.com)
   • Port: The appropriate port (e.g., 1000 for HTTP)
   • Type: HTTP, HTTPS, or SOCKS5 as needed
   • Username: Your Evomi username
   • Password: Your Evomi password followed by _session-anychars_mode-speed
4. Save the configuration and enable it when you want to use the Evomi proxy.

Tips and Troubleshooting

• The manual Wi-Fi proxy configuration only applies to the specific Wi-Fi network you’ve configured. It won’t work for mobile data or other Wi-Fi networks.
• Some Android versions or custom ROMs may have slightly different steps for manual proxy configuration. Look for network, Wi-Fi, or proxy settings if you can’t find the exact options mentioned.
• Remember that your Evomi password should be in the format: your_password_session-anychars_mode-speed
• If you’re having connection issues, try toggling Airplane mode on and off to reset network connections.
• Some apps may ignore system-wide proxy settings. In these cases, you’ll need to use a VPN app that forces all traffic through the proxy.
• Always disable the proxy when you’re not using it to ensure normal internet access.
• Be cautious when using proxies on public Wi-Fi networks, as your credentials may be visible to network administrators.
• For rooted devices, you can use apps like ProxyDroid or Drony in root mode for system-wide proxy settings that work across all apps and network connections.

By following this guide, you should now be able to use Evomi proxies on your Android devices for various web activities and app usage.
