This article explains how to set up some of the most popular proxys to work with AdGuard.
Open AdGuard and go to Settings —— Proxy settings. Download "Orbot: Proxy with Tor" by tapping on Configure Tor® integration button or directly from Google Play.
Open Orbot and press the Start button on the application's main screen.
Go back to the Proxy Settings screen of AdGuard.
Tap on the Configure Tor® integration button.
All the required fields will be pre-filled:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Proxy type | SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 |
| Proxy host | 127.0.0.1 |
| Proxy port | 9050 |
Or you can tap on Add proxy and enter these values manually, then set the Orbot proxy as a default one.
Please note, AdGuard will now forward all traffic through Orbot proxy, if you disable Orbot proxy, then Internet connection will be unavailable until you disable outbound proxy settings in AdGuard

Tap on the Add proxy button and enter the following data:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Proxy type | SOCKS5 |

You also need to fill out the Username/Password fields. To do so, log in to the Client Control Panel on the PIA website. Click the Generate Password button under the Generate PPTP/L2TP/SOCKS Password section. A Username starting with "x" and a random Password will be shown. Use them to fill out the Username and Password fields in AdGuard.
Set this proxy as a default one by toggling the switch, then click Save.
Enable AdGuard protection.

here we presume that you have already configured a Shadowsocks server and a client on your device
NOTE: You should remove Shadowsocks application from filtering before setting up the process (AdGuard - Apps management - Shadowsocks - Disable protection) to avoid infinite loops and drops
Open AdGuard and go to Settings - Proxy settings.
Tap on the Add proxy server and fill the fields:
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Proxy type | SOCKS5 |
| Proxy host | 127.0.0.1 |
| Proxy port | 1080 |
There is a factor that can prevent certain traffic from being routed through the outgoing proxy. AdGuard will only re-route traffic that goes through it. Basically, it means apps that have Ad blocking flag enabled in the Apps Management tab.
