Use your phone's mobile connection as a proxy for desktop browsers.
About this app
Proxy Exit is NOT a way to set up a proxy on your phone. It is a part of a setup to route your desktop browser's internet traffic through your phone's mobile data connection.
Setup requires three components: a Proxy Server, this app, and a configured browser.
● Start the Proxy Server
Run the following Docker command on a machine accessible from the internet:
docker run -d -p 8888:8888 -p 9999:9999 -e AUTH_CODE=XXX registry.gitlab.com/viru7/proxy:latest
Port 8888 — browser HTTP proxy connections Port 9999 — mobile app connections XXX — your chosen password
If the server is running on a home machine, ensure port 9999 is forwarded to it.
● Configure the app
Enter the server's IP address, port (9999), and your password, then tap Start.
Keep the app running in the foreground while in use. If the connection to the server drops, the app will automatically retry every minute.
● Configure your browser
Set the browser's HTTP and HTTPS proxy to the server's IP address and port (8888).
How it works:
1. The app connects to the Proxy Server, making the phone available as a proxy exit node. 2. When the browser needs to make an HTTP request, it sends it to the Proxy Server. 3. The Proxy Server forwards the request to the phone over the established connection. 4. The phone fetches the content via mobile data and returns it through the server to the browser.

Go to Security → Unknown sources (or Install unknown apps)

Open the downloaded APK file from your Downloads folder
Tap "Install" and wait for installation to complete
Launch the app from your home screen
Make sure to re-enable Unknown Sources restrictions after installation for security.
How to install this safely
How to verify the file you downloaded
Before you install anything, confirm the file is the one described here. On a computer, run shasum -a 256 your-download.apk (macOS or Linux) or certutil -hashfile your-download.apk SHA256 (Windows), then compare the output character-for-character with the SHA-256 on this page. If a single character differs, the file is not the build we recorded — delete it.
What the signing certificate proves
Every Android app is signed with a private key that only its developer holds. The fingerprint on this page is a hash of the matching public certificate, and it proves continuity rather than identity: it tells you a build came from whoever signed the earlier ones. Android enforces this at install time — if a package claiming to be com.github.vgaj.proxy is signed with a different key, the system will refuse to install it over your existing copy. A fingerprint that changes between releases is worth pausing on, because a repackaged app that has been modified by someone else cannot keep the original signature.
How to roll back to an earlier version
No earlier build is on record for Proxy Exit, so there is nothing to roll back to yet. When a second version is published, this section will explain how to move between them safely.
Why we list sources instead of hosting everything
The official store channel is almost always the right choice: it updates automatically and carries the publisher's own distribution guarantees. A direct APK is useful when a device has no store access, when a rollout has not reached your region, or when you need a specific version — and only when the publisher has authorized that copy. APKBrowse does not list pirated, cracked, or unauthorized rebuilds of Proxy Exit, and a listing is removed when the evidence for it stops holding up.

Permissions Required
What each permission lets Proxy Exit do. A highlighted one is worth a second look — not necessarily wrong, just worth asking whether this app needs it.
Previous Versions
No earlier build is on record — this is the first release we have listed.
The signing certificate fingerprint for this release is on record, so a build that does not match it did not come from this publisher.
