Proxifier on macOS

This guide explains how to configure Proxifier on macOS to route application traffic through Evomi proxies. Proxifier intercepts network connections from any application and tunnels them through a proxy server without requiring the application to have native proxy support.

Prerequisites

  • Proxifier installed on your macOS machine
  • An active Evomi proxy subscription
  • Your Evomi proxy credentials (username and password)

Step-by-Step Configuration

1. Launch Proxifier

Open Proxifier from the Applications folder or search for it using Spotlight.

2. Add a New Proxy Server

  • Go to Proxifier > Preferences (or press Cmd+,).
  • Select the Proxies tab.
  • Click the Add button (+) at the bottom.

3. Enter Evomi Proxy Details

In the Edit Proxy Server window:

  • Address: rp.evomi.com
  • Port: 1000 (for HTTP) or 1002 (for SOCKS5)
  • Protocol: Select HTTP or SOCKS Version 5 to match the port

4. Enable Authentication

  • Check Enable authentication.
  • Enter your Evomi Username and Password.

Your password should include your desired session and mode parameters:

yourpassword_session-123456_mode-quality

Replace yourpassword with your actual password and 123456 with any session identifier.

5. Test the Proxy Server

  • Click the Check button to verify connectivity.
  • If the test succeeds, click OK to save.

6. Configure Proxification Rules

  • In the Preferences window, select the Rules tab.
  • Click Add (+) to create a new rule.
  • Configure:
    • Applications: Leave as Any or specify applications to route through the proxy
    • Targets: Leave as Any or define specific domains/IPs
    • Action: Select Proxy and choose the Evomi proxy you added
  • Click OK to save.

7. Verify

  • Open a browser and navigate to https://ip.evomi.com/s.
  • The displayed IP should be the proxy IP, not your real IP.

Proxy Modes

Evomi residential proxies support different modes to optimize for your use case. Append the mode parameter to your password:

â„šī¸
Mode selection is only available for residential proxies.
Mode Password Suffix Pool Size Speed Quality Best For
Standard (default, no suffix) Largest Good Good General scraping, large IP pool needs
Speed _mode-speed Medium Best Good Time-sensitive tasks, large data transfers
Quality _mode-quality Smallest Best Best Strict sites, avoiding CAPTCHAs

Example password with quality mode:

mysecretpassword_session-abc123_mode-quality

Tips and Troubleshooting

  • Incorrect credentials: Double-check your username and password, including the _mode- parameter.
  • Connection issues: Ensure your firewall or security settings are not blocking Proxifier.
  • Authentication failed: Verify the password includes the correct mode suffix.
  • Switching modes: Change the _mode- parameter in your password (mode-speed, mode-standard, mode-quality).
  • Restart applications: After changing proxy settings, restart applications to ensure they pick up the new configuration.
