Can I use a proxy server with both Wi-Fi and cellular data on my iPhone


You cannot use a proxy server with cellular data on your iPhone. Proxy settings can only be configured for Wi-Fi connections. This limitation means that while you can set up a proxy for any Wi-Fi network you connect to, there is no built-in option to configure a proxy for cellular data usage on iOS devices[1][2][4].

If you need to use a proxy for your mobile data, you might consider using a VPN service that can route your traffic through a proxy, but this would require third-party applications and is not a direct configuration through the iPhone settings[1][2].
