You can find our quick setup guides for each proxy type here.

4. Once the details are entered, click Create in the bottom right corner (You can also double-check if the proxy is working by clicking Proxy detection).

🚧

Known issues:

Sometimes when checking if the proxy works via the Proxy detection option, it could display that you are unable to connect to the proxy. Before altering any settings, double-check by launching the profile. In most cases, the proxy connection should be established.

If you're located in mainland China, and can't connect, then replace smartproxy with visitxiangtan (e.g. gate.visitxiangtan.com) and try again.

5. That should be it! Click Open and your profile should launch with our proxies active.

Checking the proxy IP / connection

1. Launch the created profile from the main menu.
2. Visit ip.smartproxy.com to check the current IP address and location.
