Shadowsocks is an Android application developed to encrypt internet traffic and bypass network restrictions. You can set up a proxy and access websites that have been blocked by your ISP.
Connection
The utility is created for private and secure web surfing. Shadowsocks allows you to use a proxy with encryption and authorization with a password. Just like Proxifier, you can protect your personal data on untrusted networks. Thanks to these features, it is possible to freely use the internet when connected to public Wi-Fi hotspots.
Furthermore, there is an option to protect yourself from traffic interception, advertising injection, unauthorized subscriptions to paid services and other dangers.
The app is an open source, which practically does not reduce network bandwidth.
Setting
You can select programs and games on your smartphone that will go online through Shadowsocks automatically. This reduces the load on the mobile device system and the server used. In addition, the application supports the transmission of connection settings via a QR code. It is possible to share the set parameters with other users.
Please note that you need to have your own VPS to use the software. It is necessary to enter a profile name, specify the local and remote ports.
