What is an Android proxy server?

A proxy server is an intermediary between your Android device and the internet. It lets you bypass location blocks, hide your IP address and strengthen your online security. The main proxy types are residential, mobile, ISP, and datacenter proxies. Proxy types differ in their speed, geo-location coverage, and how they are sourced.

SSL / HTTPS Proxy

What is an SSL or HTTPS Proxy

If you’re new to proxies, the variety of types can be confusing. An SSL or HTTPS proxy simply refers to a proxy that uses the HTTPS protocol to create a secure, encrypted connection between your device and the proxy server.

Proxy types usually describe either the device providing the proxy (like residential or datacenter) or the connection method used. SSL/HTTPS proxies fall into the latter group, ensuring your data is encrypted and protected during transmission.

Using an SSL/HTTPS proxy helps keep your data private, secure, and compatible with most modern websites that require HTTPS connections.
