What does ProxyTool do?
ProxyTool is a proxy client for apps that have no proxy setting of their own. You install it on the machine, pick an app, and that app’s traffic goes out through the SOCKS5 or HTTPS proxy you choose. Nothing has to be configured inside the app itself.
According to ProxyTool, it captures traffic at the kernel level, so it covers TCP and UDP rather than just browser traffic. Their own examples are Chrome, Discord voice chat, Telegram and games.
The rules are per app. One app can go through a Singapore line while everything else on the machine stays on your normal connection, and you can chain proxies if you need to. They also list DNS leak protection, and it runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and Android.
There’s a 7-day free trial on their side.
Who it is for
- People running desktop or mobile apps that simply have no proxy field, like messengers, game clients or older tools
- Anyone who wants one app on a Singapore IP without routing the whole machine through it
- Teams who switch exit IPs per app and are tired of system-wide VPN-style setups
What we have and have not checked
ProxyTool’s team has tested their client against our Singapore lines, and they publish a setup guide for it. We haven’t run ProxyTool across every platform they support ourselves, so the feature list above comes from ProxyTool’s own material.
This is a listing swap. ProxyTool lists us on their partners page as a plain followed link, and we’ve listed them here on the same terms. No money changed hands and we don’t earn commission on the link above.
Why pair it with Singapore Mobile Proxy
Plenty of apps check where you connect from, and the apps that need it most are often the ones with no proxy setting at all. ProxyTool fills that gap.
Point the app at a Singapore Mobile Proxy port and it connects through a physical SIM in a modem here in Singapore, on Singtel or M1. That’s a real Singapore carrier IP, the same kind ordinary phone users sit behind, and the port is yours alone.
The honest limit: we’re one country on purpose. If what you run is Singapore-facing we’re a good fit. For other geos you’ll want a different provider.
Setup
In ProxyTool, add a SOCKS5 or HTTP proxy with the host, port, username and password from your Singapore Mobile Proxy dashboard, then create a rule that sends the app you want through it. Check the exit IP before you log in to anything.
A free trial port is available if you want to confirm it’s a real Singapore carrier line first.
