❌ My iOS or Android Devices could not access the Internet after changing the Proxy Config in the Wifi Setting.
❌ I can't download the certificate from http://cert.proxyman.io or http://proxy.man/ssl
Please make sure to double-check the following steps:
Some reports from Proxyman's users, that Proxyman and Charles Proxy could not capture any traffic from iOS 16 devices/simulator, even though they config the HTTP Proxy.
It's a bug from iOS, we have to wait for the Apple team to fix it.
To workaround:
Forget the network and try to connect again.
Use to capture the traffic
Use iOS 15 devices
Use iOS 15 Simulators
If they're on a different network, they are unable to connect to each other.
By default, the VPN app will force all traffic through the VPN server instead of the Proxyman Proxy server (at 9090). Therefore, there are no requests that appear on the Proxyman app.
Turn OFF all VPN apps will fix it:
For iOS Devices: Navigate to Settings -> General -> VPN and make sure the VPN status is OFF
For Android Devices: Find the VPN setting on the Settings app and turn it OFF
For macOS: Quit all VPN apps
By default, a Firewall might block all incoming traffic to your mac. Thus, your remote devices might not be able to connect to Proxyman.
On macOS: Navigate to System Preference -> Security & Privacy -> Firewall tab -> Option
Verify that:
Block All incoming connections is OFF
Proxyman app allows incoming connection
If there is no Proxyman app, please add the Proxyman app by clicking on + button
Automatically allow built-in software to receive incoming connection is ON
Automatically allowing downloaded signed software to receive incoming connections is ON
Windows 10/11 might block Proxyman, and iPhone/Android devices could not connect to the app. To fix it:
Search and open the "Windows Defender Firewall" app -> Click the "Advanced Setting" on the left panel
Select "Inbound Rules"
Find Proxyman.exe -> Double-click to open the setting
Select "Allow the Connection" in the General Tab
Click OK
Some companies block certain ports by default. Therefore, your iOS devices couldn't access to Proxyman's port at 9090.
If you follow all the above steps and all configuration is correct but it hasn't resolved your cases yet.
Please try to ON/OFF your Wifi, Forget the Wifi Network (iOS), and Restart the Computer.
Manual Override the HTTP Proxy, install and trust Proxyman on iOS devices is hard. We understand that. Let's try Atlantis, which is an iOS framework that helps you do it automatically.
Double-check the Wifi Connection in the Emulator. It must be Connected Status (not Limited Connection or No Internet)
If it happens, please try to forget the network and re-connect the Wifi.
From Android Emulator API 30+, it requires extra steps to trust the Proxyman Certificate
Open http://proxy.man/ssl from Google Chrome to download the certificate
Setting app -> Security -> Encryption & Credentials -> Install a Certificate -> CA Certificate -> Install Anyway and Select CA Proxyman Certificate in your storage
You can verify that by opening Trusted Credentials -> User Tab
It probably dues to the Android devices/emulators, the only way might fix it is to change the DNS from your Mac or Android Device to 8.8.8.8
On macOS: Open System Preference -> Network -> Select Wifi -> Advanced -> Select DNS Tab -> Enter 8.8.8.8 on DNS Server Table
On Android Device: Open Wifi Setting -> Set DNS as 8.8.8.8
