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 Permalink to Prerequisites

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

Step-by-Step Configuration Permalink to Step-by-Step Configuration

1. Launch Proxifier Permalink to 1. Launch Proxifier

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

2. Add a New Proxy Server Permalink to 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 Permalink to 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 Permalink to 4. Enable Authentication

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

Your password can include session and mode parameters, appended with underscores:

yourpassword_session-123456_mode-speed

Replace yourpassword with your actual password and 123456 with any session identifier of 6 to 10 letters or digits. Without a session parameter, you get a new IP on every request.

5. Test the Proxy Server Permalink to 5. Test the Proxy Server

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

6. Configure Proxification Rules Permalink to 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 Permalink to 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.

Evomi Proxy Endpoints Permalink to Evomi Proxy Endpoints

HTTPS endpoints use the evomi-proxy.com domain — that is the hostname our TLS certificate covers, and it reaches the same servers. A client that verifies certificates will reject the evomi.com form on the HTTPS port.

Sessions, Geo-Targeting and Modes Permalink to Sessions, Geo-Targeting and Modes

Append parameters to your password with underscores:

Without a _mode- parameter, the standard mode uses the largest pool.

Example password with a session, a country and speed mode:

mysecretpassword_session-abc123_country-US_mode-speed

Tips and Troubleshooting Permalink to Tips and Troubleshooting

• Incorrect credentials: Double-check your username and password, including any parameters appended to the password.
• Connection issues: Ensure your firewall or security settings are not blocking Proxifier.
• Authentication failed: Check the username, and check that the _ separators and parameter names in the password are spelled exactly.
• Changing the exit IP: Use a new _session- value, or remove it to get a new IP on every request.
• Switching modes: Change the _mode- parameter in your password (mode-speed, mode-quality), or remove it for the standard mode.
• Restart applications: After changing proxy settings, restart applications to ensure they pick up the new configuration.
