proxy.
iOS: Apps like Shadowrocket or Quantumult allow you to configure proxies and route
traffic from apps.

Charles is a popular tool to monitor network traffic between your devices and the
internet. It also allows you to configure a proxy and inspect traffic.
Setup for both Android and iOS: You’ll need to set up the device to route traffic
through Charles. This requires installing a certificate and configuring the proxy IP to
your computer running Charles.

If you need to route all traffic through a proxy (including apps), a VPN with proxy
support can be used.

features.

requires more technical setup but gives you full control.
Things to Keep in Mind
Authentication: Some proxies require a username and password. Make sure you know
these credentials before setting up.
Data Encryption: If you need security, consider setting up an HTTPS proxy to ensure
encrypted traffic.
Proxy Type: There are several proxy types (e.g., HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS5), choose the one
best suited for your needs.
Testing: After configuring the proxy, verify its functionality using a tool like WhatIsMyIP
or simply by checking if your IP has changed.
