FreeProxy

Route your traffic through a SOCKS5 or HTTP proxy, per app.
New in version 1.0.3
Build changes only — no functional changes since 1.0.2.

* Removed the dependency metadata that the build tools embed in the APK signing block; it is opaque, proprietary data meant for Google Play
* Stopped embedding the build-time git commit in the APK, so the build no longer depends on when it was made
FreeProxy turns any SOCKS5 or HTTP CONNECT proxy into a system-wide VPN on Android.

Traffic from every app — or only the apps you pick — is captured by VpnService as raw IP packets, reassembled into TCP/UDP sessions in userspace, and forwarded through your upstream proxy. Apps with no proxy support of their own end up going through it anyway.

There is no NDK code and no bundled tun2socks binary: the TCP/IP stack is written in plain Kotlin.

Features

* Multiple SOCKS5 / HTTP CONNECT profiles, with optional username and password auth
* Connectivity test that performs a real handshake before you save a profile
* Per-app routing: all apps, an allow list, or a bypass list
* Live activity log — DNS lookups and every connection, colour-coded, showing the app that opened it and the resolved hostname instead of a bare IP
* Per-profile DNS mode: resolve through the proxy (private) or directly (fast)
* Persistent notification with live upload/download counters and a one-tap disconnect
* Bypass private networks, block IPv6 leaks, stop automatically when the network drops, start on boot
* Material 3 interface with dynamic colour, light and dark themes, and a tablet layout
* English and Simplified Chinese

Known limits

IPv4 only. ICMP cannot be carried by proxy protocols, so ping inside the tunnel will not work. UDP forwarding needs a SOCKS5 proxy that supports UDP ASSOCIATE — without it, DNS falls back to DNS-over-TCP and other UDP traffic is dropped. Proxy credentials are stored unencrypted in the app's private directory (excluded from cloud backup). Per-app attribution in the log requires Android 10 or newer.

FreeProxy does not provide any proxy servers. You bring your own.

Versions

Although APK downloads are available below to give you the choice, you should be aware that by installing that way you will not receive update notifications and it's a less secure way to download. We recommend that you install the F-Droid client and use that.

    Permissions
    • view network connections
      Allows the app to view information about network connections such as which networks exist and are connected.
    • run foreground service
      Allows the app to make use of foreground services.
    • run foreground service with the type "specialUse"
      Allows the app to make use of foreground services with the type "specialUse"
    • have full network access
      Allows the app to create network sockets and use custom network protocols. The browser and other applications provide means to send data to the internet, so this permission is not required to send data to the internet.
    • show notifications
      Allows the app to show notifications
    • query all packages
      Allows an app to see all installed packages.
    • run at startup
      Allows the app to have itself started as soon as the system has finished booting. This can make it take longer to start the phone and allow the app to slow down the overall phone by always running.
