To set up a proxy for a single app on your iPhone, you will need to use third-party applications, as iOS does not support per-app proxy settings natively. Here are some options:
Third-Party Apps
1. Shadowrocket: This app allows you to configure SOCKS5 proxies and assign them to specific apps. After installing Shadowrocket, you can add your proxy details and set which apps should use the proxy.
2. Potatso Lite: Similar to Shadowrocket, Potatso Lite supports per-app proxy settings. You can enter your SOCKS5 proxy information and assign it to the apps you want to route through the proxy.
Steps to Set Up
- Install the App: Download either Shadowrocket or Potatso Lite from the App Store.
- Configure the Proxy: Open the app and enter your SOCKS5 proxy details, including the server address and port.
- Assign the Proxy to Apps: Within the app, you can select which applications should use the configured proxy.
Important Notes
- These apps may require jailbreaking your device to function properly, especially for more advanced features like app-specific proxy settings.
- Ensure that you are using a reputable proxy service to maintain your privacy and security while browsing.
By using these third-party applications, you can effectively manage proxy settings for individual apps on your iPhone[1][5].
