# Android

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Usage Notice:** All LoyalProxy proxy products must be operated in an overseas network environment. Please ensure that you have already configured the corresponding overseas network environment yourself.
{% endhint %}

Before integrating the proxy into an Android device, please ensure that you have obtained valid proxy service information and have confirmed that the proxy service is running properly.

## Steps

### 1. Go to Wi-Fi Settings

Open your phone's **Settings** → tap **WLAN** or **Wi-Fi** (names may vary slightly by brand).

### 3. Configure the Proxy Server

1. In the advanced settings, find the **Proxy** option and set it to **Manual**.
2. Fill in the following information:
   * **Hostname**: Proxy server IP address or domain name
   * **Port**: Proxy service port number
3. Tap **Save** or **OK** in the upper-right corner to complete the setup.

> **Tip**: Some Android systems may require you to expand **Advanced options** first to see the proxy settings.

### 4. Enter Authentication Information (If Needed)

If the proxy service requires a username and password for authentication, the system will usually pop up an authentication window when you first access the network. You can also visit any webpage in a browser and enter the username and password as prompted.

### 5. Verify the Proxy Connection

Open any browser (such as Chrome) and visit an IP detection website to check whether the displayed IP address matches the proxy IP you configured. If they match, the proxy setup was successful.

### Notes

* This setting is a **Wi-Fi-level proxy** and only applies to the current Wi-Fi network.
* After switching Wi-Fi networks, you need to reconfigure the proxy.
* Please ensure that the proxy server supports your use case and that the information entered is correct.

> **At this point, you have successfully completed Wi-Fi proxy configuration on your Android device and can access the network through the proxy server.**
